Red face - help

I constantly blush even at the smallest things, the heat, being embarrassed, sometimes even talking. It doesn't help that I have rosy cheeks already, even if I'm not blushing!

I'm usually picked on because for it and think some people are put off by a guy that has rosy red cheeks no matter what. Even a newer friends assumed I liked her by how much I blushed while being near her, which then caused me to actually blush!

Is it attractive OR does anyone deal with deal with this?

Haha, don't worry mate, just means you have good blood circulation. It's cute! I have the same problem and get annoyed with it from time to time, but honestly, just own it and start gaslighting people over it, sort of like "what do you mean, this is my normal face! I'm like this with anyone!"

I think whe you're older you'll appreciate it a bit more

This is like an exam where you know what questions are going to come up. You can prepare some A+ answers and use them when the need arises.

There's only so many different things people will say about you blushing.
You can have a pre-prepared great answer to every single one of them.

EG in the context of you having a breaking-the-ice conversation with someone you're attracted to and she says "You're blushing"
You reply with "You don't even want to know what I'm thinking now!... Maybe you do?! 😍 It would be over-familiar of me to tell you. There's certain social niceties we should go through first before we get to that stage. How about we just speak to each other as normal human beings for now? How does that sound?"
Or "Yeah, I'm an open book. I'm not expecting to keep any secrets from you... Honesty's the best policy..."

EG some kid in class says "Look at him, he's blushing!"
You reply with "Nice of you to take a keen interest in my facial colouration. I admire observant people."
Or ignore their comment and say whatever you want to say and talk about whatever you want to talk about.

Have fun trying out different answers till you settle on a few that get best results.
