tummy scars

hullo, last year (june and october) i underwent two operations that were quite serious one being appendicitis usually its a simple procedure but i didnt know i had it so it was left quite long and got comlicated because of this i had to have another one in october that was far more serious as a result the docs had to make a cut from the side of my belly button to about my pelvis (its basically your hand stretched out from your thumb to little finger) and my appendix scar had to be opened again and was made larger....:frown: they sometimes get my self esteem down and i was wondering if any of you think if stuff like this stops relationships......yes i am interested in a girl but i dont know what she would think when she sees them?....................

Well they will fade and become less noticeable eventually. You can get creams to make them become less noticeable, that might help your confidence and self esteem.

On the whole relationships front, the only people who are going to mind about scars and people who aint interested in you in any other way than just sex. I wouldnt mind them so much, everyone is going to have a scar eventually, alot of girls end up with them after having a baby. I seriously dont think there long term partner minds, so why would a girl who cares about you mind.

Get some Bio Oil on it, though personally, I like scars, they show individuality. :smile:
