Girl Feels Poor Vision Has Improved Self Confidence

A girl explained to her friend last night that she felt a renewed sense of confidence since she had stopped wearing her glasses or contacts into the bathroom. She stated that with her glasses on she tended to focus on things like her freckles, pimples, and oily skin, all of which were very difficult to see without some sort of corrective lens. Thus, by removing her glasses prior to situations in which she might encounter herself in a mirror, she had begun to feel better about the way she looked.
Her friend offered that while that was nice she hated to be the one to point out that just because the girl was choosing not to see herself clearly didn't mean that others had the same problem. She reminded her that others actually saw her the way that she would appear if she had her glasses on.
The girl said that she was aware of that, but that it was beside the point. The point, as she saw it, was that she FELT better about herself when she did not wear corrective lenses around mirrors. Whereas she might previously have returned from the bathroom feeling depressed and overcome with self doubt she was now able to return feeling confident and beautiful, which she felt was every bit as important as how she actually appeared.
She'd become more attractive, she said, by simply not being as aware of how she looked.
