JXDS, you are right, we do have braces on for ourselves:) The first thing so many people say to me when they see I have braces on is " I never thought you needed braces."..lol And I'm always surprised. I know people must have seen my overbite and my one snaggletooth..no?..really?..lol
What I'm learning from having braces it that I am far too hard and critical of myself. If you are a good, sweet and loving person people will gravitate to you regardless of having braces. I know many people who have perfect smiles, but that are not happy people and they wear that unhappiness on their face and it makes them unattractive.
Do you not see all of this metal in my mouth?

So funny bc I get that a lot too.. I didn't thin u ever needed them. Which actually irritates me when people say that !!! I just don't appreciate commentary like that at all. It's so unproductive to tell me that, is what I think. Maybe they mean well by sounding like I looked fine before but to me it's like saying, u r wasting ur money and I don't get u. Which makes me feel kind of yucky when I hear that. If they tell me that before braces then it's not so bad tho, you know?
