hey. Im younger than you as I’m about to be 21, but my parents didn’t talk to me for quite awhile after I told them. They’re still not happy about it but they’ve accepted its going ahead and are fine to talk to about it now. My mum even apologised for her initial reaction. Other people I’ve had negative reactions from have all been of an older generation whereas people I’ve told in their twenties etc have just been very interested. Im not stereotyping whole age groups but I’ve just found older people tend to have negative views, i know thats not the case with everyone, I’ve told a colleague who’s older and she’s been lovely. I think the main thing i’ve learnt from it is to trust my own decisions and not let other people’s opinions affect how i feel. Also maybe just be slightly wary who you tell. I’ve decided not to tell certain members of my family such as my nan and uncles and aunties and i’ve only told one colleague. Im sure some people will notice and comment, and if they choose to be judgemental then thats their issue, i know my reasons as to why I’m doing it as I’m sure you do :D. It’s not easy being judged but i think you just have to remember the reasons why you’re doing it, and anyone who judges you for having a boob job needs to take a serious look at themselves. Anyone who loves you and is concerned, like my parents were, will come round eventually. Good luck 🙂 xx
