 |
|
| I realized, I'm not THAT skinny. I'm thin, but my thin neck makes it me look a lot thinner than I really am. Any ideas of what, or what not to wear? I'm already guessing you guys are thinking of scarves or turtlenecks, but any ideas of causal stuff? |

Surely your neck cant be that slim, i mean how does one have a skinny neck? I dont look at a person and think 'oh they have a skinny neck', no, who does? I think you're just making more out of it than it is, like when people look in the mirrow and think 'my nose aint good, oh its kinda bent, oh it really doesn't look good, ahhh its horrible, i hate it, i wanna nose job.' when other people wont even notice its bent til you mention it.
Forget the polo neck, throw out the scarf, its cool dont worry about it |

You know about Doug Jones from Hellboy, and Pan's Labrynth?

^ Mine isn't that long, but I'm just saying I think gets in the way of my overall proportions, and my shoulders would look a lot wider if it were shorter. And BTW, my nose is pretty big, but I don't worry about that.  I tell myself if chicks dig Adrien Brody, I'll have no problem! |

you know in some parts of south america, the longer a womans neck the more attractive she is seen by the rest of the tribe.
But i take you're not from the amazon, and you're not a woman, so that doesn't really help.
There are worst things to have than a long neck, maybe if you put on weight over time it will fatten out, like these wrestlers you see on tv, surely they never always had necks like that. And hey, its not as bad as having a big fat giant neck, with 5 chins. |

Hey it can't be Doug Jones bad. Just don't mention it to others. It will only make them focus more on your neck. I recommend you not to cover up you neck to fit in with the rest. People feel it when you are trying to cover up parts of your body. It's unnatural. If you are able to accept it and keep your head high, you will show more confidence. And we all know the magic of confidence.
hope it helped you out |

| Mystery is tall and thin and doesn't have a short neck and I think he does quite fine for himself, lol. Don't worry about it, it's not a defect, it's a feature. |

| Don't worry, I know I shouldn't emphasize or bring up my flaws, I learned that a while ago. But looking skinny is sort of less alpha than being chubby, you know? But hey - snoop dog is pretty thin, so I won't beat myself up about it. |

| wear a necklace. not only will it take away from your neck but also give it the appearance of being shorter |

| There are a lot of exercises with which you can train your neck, so it is not that slim. |

| I suggest getting a necklace that isnt very loose. get one that is kind of tighter. it makes your neck look thicker. |
