spots

hey.

in a hypothetical situation ...

there is a girl who is quite pretty but doesnt have great skin. Her forehead is quite bumpy with a few bigger spots. Does this have a big effect on what guys think of her and are they a lot less likely to fancy her??

How old are you? I'm guessing teenage, and sadly I'd say that your average teenage boy is extremely image-conscious and focussed on a girl's looks rather than her personality, mainly because at this stage they're so worried about what their friends and other boys think of the girls they're seeing.

I'm 17 and one of the younger ones out of all my friends, and I think that by now most of my male friends have grown out of that luckily so don't worry, it's not always that bad

If it really gets you down, try going to your doctor and getting antibiotics for your skin - I went on a course of them for about a month last autumn when my skin was going through a really nasty patch and they solved the problem very quickly Other than that, make sure you drink *lots* of water, eat plenty of fruit and vegetables, and avoid the following:
Fizzy drinks
Coffee and tea
Junk food
Food with additives
Spicy food
etc

Sorry just realised you said it was a hypothetical situation - so replace 'you' with 'this girl'

It wouldn't worry me.
