I think I need to give you some tough advice here: That isn't you. If you really, REALLY think that being like those people would make you happy, then you need to get off the computer and start putting more effort into achieving the careers and bodies that they have. But, honestly? Everyone is different. And just because they may be thinner or make more money in a year does NOT mean that they are in any way superior to you. Inner beauty is more important in my opinion. I always look at personality first. You clearly have SOME way to get internet access since you're posting on here, right? And you seem to have an education, based on your ability to use proper grammar and spelling in your question. A lot of people would look at YOU and wonder why they couldn't be like you. You're fantastic, I'm sure, and you're worth everything. Don't let other "successful" people get you down. I'm sorry if this was rough advice and tough love. I truly do understand how you feel, and had someone tell me this which was the only way to "kick me out of my pity party'.
