"I Have Been Biting My Nails Since I Was A Baby!"

Hi Rose, im 14 years old and i have been biting my nails sense i was a baby. I have never bit my nails down to where they would bleed but to the point where they hurt. I have always wished that i could have pretty nails or be able to panit (paint) them with nail polish but i never could. All my friends have beautiful nails and love to where rings and show off their nails. I tried fake nails for a while but i got them off and my real nails grew but a week later i chomped them down to where they were before. I always thought that there was something wrong with me because i bite my nails. No one in my family does and hardly any of my friends do. I also once in a while bite my toenails which i hate doing but i do it anyways and i dont know why i do! After i do i hate wearing shoes and i hate when people look at my feet because im totally embarrsed that i bite them! Im glad that i have found some other poeple that are in the same kind of situation as me, im glad im not alone. I read the comment that the guy made about how its not ok to bite your nails. I think that it isnt ok to bite ur nails. I HATE biting my nails but im not weird because i do it. I think Rob meant that its ok to bite, that ur not alone. I dont think he meant that yes its okay to put ur fingers in ur mouth and risk getting sick or be in pain. I just think he meant that we are not alone in the situation and dont think your alone and the only one because ur not! This page has really help me and im glad that im not alone.
