JOY FEELINGS MAGAZINE November issue 2015 | Page 76

Your opinion of yourself comes through very clearly to every person that you interact with through your facial expressions, your body language, how you move, your emotions, and in the energy that you convey generally. Men want to be around women who like themselves and feel secure. They don’t want to be around women who are painfully shy, extremely self-conscious, and those who put themselves down all the time and have to be constantly reassured etc. I can tell you that averagelooking women who like themselves can appear very JOY FEELINGS MAGAZINE attractive to a man, while very good-looking women who don’t like themselves can appear very unattractive. Liking yourself is a decision that you can make at any time. It does not need to depend on an ideal set of circumstances (eg. having the perfect body). It comes from being able to focus on your good points instead of your bad points, and also from living consistently with your beliefs and values.
