      When people say “be yourself” they mean don’t fake your personality. You can be genuine about your personality while still putting forth an effort to improve yourself physically.

        I mean you should also always be putting in effort to improve yourself emotionally and intellectually as well.

          If the comment I was replying to mentioned something related to emotional/intellectual growth then I would’ve mentioned those.

        People have low tolerance for being anxious and lacking confidence. You just get walked over or declared safe to be shitty to as soon as social weakness is seen.
