my aunt isn't the most attractive woman on earth.
to be frank, she isn't what social norm's would consider remotely pretty.
she's been working the same 5pm-2am job for the vast majority of her life and has no hope of promotion. she's never had any experience with men and is obsessed with love stricken k-drama. i never really considered any of this until recently. 

i've never really been happy with how i looked.

 granted, no-ones perfect and people accept that but if i had the chance to alter how i looked, i'd jump on it. 

i always thought my aunt was fine the way she was though. she never complained about her repetitive and love deprived lifestyle or about how unhappy she was about her appearance so surely enough she'll just keep doing what she does and just constantly live that way. 

right?

not right.

but short-term kinda right.

she's obsessed with korea and wants to go there one day. the other day when i was hanging out with her she brings up a trip to korea and i asked her what she wanted to do there. first thing she replied with;

plastic surgery.

she'd always lightheartedly say that she wasn't pretty and no one would want her. it always felt like she was joking cause she always said it so lightheartedly but now i've come to realization that she could only condemn her so casually only if she truly came to terms with the idea.
