dont do it. i did the same thing and lets just say i had a tough time for a while and i moved to private schooling. so dont take the risk. if he wants to see your body HE will have to wait to have such a sight because YOU have to be ready for something like that.

(PS) to add if he wants to see your body that badly dont send him a pic (very bad idea....) tell him that if he wants that he will have to see it in the flesh. not a picture where he can use it to black mail you and to show it to his buddies who can also jerk off to the sight.

Don't send the boy nude pictures if you're not completely comfortable - they could end up heaven alone knows where.

Chances are he's looking for something from his sexy girlfriend (you) to jerk off to. (Sorry to be blunt)

So maybe do something clothed but evocative - something that if it lands up in some other guys computer 0 you can live with it?

That's what I have done. Had classy tasteful photos that were a bit evocative that I sent my boyfriend. If they end up on the net I can cope with it - in fact they're on my Facebook page. Baring in mind that family members and family friends can see them.

Make sure that you're one hundred percent comfortable with whatever you do :) Otherwise you'll regret it and never feel okay with it - you don't want to live with regrets like that.

ravencake agony auntFirst of all don't send this guy nude pictures. Have you ever thought where these bits and pieces of data go? They go everywhere. (I'm not saying you will) but what about after you break up, you don't know what he will do with those pictures.

Second, your low self esteem is something you need to work on yourself. Don't do anything drastic. But maybe lift some weights, eat healthy, and believe in yourself. Everyone is made differently. And get up every morning, look at yourself, give yourself a thumbs up, and say "you go girl!"

This is not a direct answer to your question. It's weight loss advice.

Eat less food. People get caught up in trying to figure out this or that magic food or exercise to lose weight, but the plain and simple fact is, if you want to lose weight, you need to eat fewer calories. Embrace hunger--it is not an unhealthy thing. Rapid weight loss and malnutrition are unhealthy--hunger is not.

Hey, don't worry I had the exact same problem. You just have to think about the good aspects in yourself 'cause that's the only way you're gonna see how beautiful you really are. Then, just take the pictures when you feel really good, and send them right away. If he loves you he'll think your beautiful no matter your size, and to be perfectly honest you don't seem big at all, just a healthy size. If he doesn't like it, he's not good enough for you.

Good luck!

You don't have to do anything you don't want to do. If you don't feel comfortable with taking pictures, then tell him that you don't want to. But if you do, you can always wear a sheer nightie- that way it is see through but you're not completely naked. You can also pose on the bed- lean on your side and prop a pillow by your tummy. That way you can cover any spots you don't feel comfortable showing, while still being sexy.

If you dont want to and dont feel comfortable dont do it! Saying your scared is never a good pointer, if you really want to send him one im sure he will enjoy it from what ever angle its from, and well if you dont send him one and he gets moody hes not worth your time.

If you are not 100% confident, don't feel forced into doing it.

However, if you want to...and I mean YOU want to then I suggest trying out different poses that feel natural to you and pick out the ones you like.

Good luck :)
