This is a kind of complicated situation, but I would like any advice or just thoughts because I seem to be constently contradicting myself. I am a 22 year old college student. My mom is always critical of my nose and for years she has pleaded with me to get it fixed. When I was 17 I agreed and had a nose job. Years later, I look at it and wonder what excactly the point was, because it looks no better. My mom agrees and is now insisting that I have it redone. I wasn't so keen on going through all of that the first time, nevermind again but the more she bothers me about It the more I look at myself and feel ugly, and then think well maybe if I did it it would fix things. I have really low self esteem.. and for that reason I usually just get really angry when my mom even brings it up. Then I think about it, and maybe if I did get it done I would be prettier and that in turn would help my self esteem. However, I have another issue that when I had it done the first time I didn't tell any of my friends, or peers. I don't want to hide something like that from everyone again. I have a serious bf and I don't even want to bring it up to him, in fear of what he'll think of the whole thing. I'm probably making a bigger deal out of all this than I should and I really shouldn't be mad at my mom because she's only trying to make my life better and I should be thankful that she'd be willing to spend so much money on such a thing for me. anyways, sorry i'm rambling. Any thoughts?

What is wrong with your nose? It's your nose why does your mom care so much how it looks? Your her daughter, you should be beautiful in her eyes no matter what. Is going through another surgery going to benefit you or her more? By the words of your post it seems like its your mother that wants it more than you. Don't go through that again and its really mean that your mom is constantly on you about it. She needs to be more supportive and stop make you feel so unnatractive, personally if my mom was on me about something like that all the time, I would be really mad and tell her to f*** off!!!! Its your face and its your decision not hers! Plus 17 you were really young to have the surgery done at that age in the first place. I don't know I just think you should really know for sure if its what you want, don't listen to your mom. Take care.
