So I’m watching the episode where Jasmine is saying how insecure she feels about herself, and how she doesn’t view herself the way Gino does.

It absolutely floors me that she doesn’t know how gorgeous she looked pre cosmetic procedures. It got me thinking about my daughter’s who are so beautiful and don’t see what I see, and even myself until recently.

Gino did an amazing job of reassuring her, but I just think it’s so sad. Our society just damages women so much. In so many ways.

Jasmine is beautiful, and I hope she realizes it before she gets some botched procedure, or just ends up looking cartoonish.

Even if she was a troll, wasting $$ on cosmetic procedures never seems to fulfill these individuals. They need to learn to love themselves. It sounds cliche, but it’s so true.

Once you love yourself unconditionally, everything else kind of falls into place.

    Gino tells her she’s beautiful all the time but I don’t think he understands how to cater to her insecurities

      I think he does exactly what he did: continues to reassure her that she’s beautiful until she can finally see it for herself.

      He can voice it for her for the time being, and just never let her forget it.

      A woman feeling beautiful can also be tied into how sexually desirous her significant other finds her. Jasmine’s been saying for some time now how Gino doesn’t seem interested in her, so I guess I do believe that it is hard for her & makes her feel less attractive when he isn’t intimate with her.

      If she’s already self conscious & then he doesn’t want to get physical, that’d be hard.
