What will you be doing over the Easter break? >>

self obsession??

Sometimes I think to myself that I must be really vain...I try to check myself but its really hard. For instance, if my friends have photos I take ages looking at the ones of myself, but I can't really be bothered to look at ones which I am not in. If I'm ever looking at someones myspace I always look to see if my name/picture has been mentioned. I think I am overly obsessed with how people percieve me. In every situation I think of myself and how I appear rather than particularly caring about how other people feel. I know this must sound terrible but I think it might be linked to low self-esteem ...I don't know.

I just wanted to know if anybody else on here feel the same??

Sound more insecure than self obsessed.

Everyone's going to be interested in how they're perceived to a certain extent, and will be more interested in photos of themselves.

I always check myself out in the mirror when I walk past it, though I'm not really too big on the photo thing or the Myspace thing.

Perhaps its time everyone gave Myspace a rest.

Sounds like you're normal to me. I do it too (not so much the MySpace thing though..) - look at photos of me in more detail. Mainly because I want to make sure the photos arent awful if everyone is going to be seeing them.
