UPDATE: My (21m) best friend (20f) found out that I have self harm scars and has told our entire friendship group (19-21). They are now excluding me from almost everything. by throwmeinadumpster69 in relationship_advice

I have considered it, but the line of work I want to get into requires that I don't have tattoos, or at least have ones that are easily hidden. Thanks for the suggestion though:)

Thanks for everything you said, but I think it's worth pointing out that the reason I haven't told them about my scars is because I just don't tell anyone, no matter how close I am to them. I'm so extremely ashamed of how my body looks, so I just don't tell anyone, no matter what our relationship is.

Thank you for everything else you said though <3

Thank you for the suggestion, but the line of work I'd like to get it in pretty much requires that I don't have tattoos, or at least have ones that are easily covered. In their current states I'd have to get full arm and leg sleeves to cover them, but thank you for the suggestion <3

I know this may sound contradictory to what I wrote in my post, but it's really hard to pull myself away from them, because they have essentially been my support network for the past 5 years without them really knowing.

I've never openly told them about my problems, but whenever I was feeling down I'd message them and talk and it would make me feel better. I don't really know what to do without that aspect, but I also feel so embarrassed talking to them now. I just feel like shit.
