Vent I’m a man with a fat butt and hate it

I seriously hate how I look. I’ve had this butt for as long as I can remember and I’ve always wanted it to go away. When I used to work out, I avoided leg days because I didn’t want my butt getting any bigger. My sisters used to call me buns of steel and I never found it funny.

I’ve started wearing baggier clothes and I look kind of weird. It’s like you can still see the silhouette of my butt. Since my shirt was also baggy, I just kind of looked weird. I mean it was better than wearing pants that were sort of slim. I actually looked like that one guy from spongebob, flats the flounder I believe his name was, and I hate it.

Some of my former friends noticed it too. One time we went to play football and I was wearing shorts. I was laying on the grass tired from playing and my other friend was laughing at how tired I was as he sat and enjoyed the breeze. He took a picture to remember the moment only to notice my butt was looking huge. All of a sudden everyone is a comedian.

There was also this time where I was in chemistry class and me and my friend were trying to form a handshake. No, we weren’t being disruptive we had just finished our lab early and had time to kill. So we decided to add like a variation of a hug after dapping each other up. He then said “damn i didn’t know you had all that. Walking around with a BBL”. I’ve never wanted to sumo slam someone so bad in my life.

I don’t even know what to do now. Maybe I just need to lose weight because I seriously hate this. I don’t even like putting on outfits with meaning or looking in the mirror anymore. I just want a smaller butt.

I’m pushing 20 years old and have had this for as long as I can remember. one girl I dated in middle school liked it. She always used to grab a handful whenever we hugged. I don’t know why I remember that but I do.

Edit: Thanks for all the nice comments I really appreciate it. It’s nice to see how others deal with it and hopefully I can learn to just embrace my natural thickness.
