Your scars are part of you. Your bf seems to love you and that means your scars too because they are a part of you. It seems to be normal for him.. not for you though.. i think maybe it would help you to try and see them more neutral.

Exactly. He sees them as a part of her that sets her apart from someone else. I understand that OP only sees the bad associated with the scarring, but that doesn’t make them invisible. The simple fact of the matter is that they exist and can be seen by others whether that’s ideal or not. But that doesn’t mean that anybody else means anything negative by seeing them, much like the boyfriend acknowledging their existence wasn’t meant to be negative

He does! He is an amazing partner and has never been judgmental of me and overall is the sweetest person I have ever met (family and close friends included). Thank you!!
