Emberrassing outie [I Have An Outie Belly Button]

So today we went shopping and whilst in the mall I noticed someone looking at me as is they wanted to say something to me. So I asked what was the matter and he said he wasn't comfortable with my belly button. At first I was wondering how he saw it but he then told me that my navel was poking out of my buttoned shirt so he could see it and I wasn't aware of that.

I was quite emberrassing.

What should I do?

There is nothing you should do! That person is rude for saying anything about it! I have an outie that was pretty big when I was younger and I was teased by my friends at school so I always tried to hide it! I would make sure it was not on show but sometimes it would pop through my tops! One day in gym class I was bending backwards doing a crab position and the class teacher walked around then stopped at me and said ooh what a lovely outie belly button!!!! And to make it worse poked it deeply then laughed as it popped back out! I was really embarrassed 😳

Tell him to stop being freakish and staring at your belly button, For him to look somewhere else, Then at your belly button. Everybody has one, Your's just happened to be cut a little bit longer than others, So it sticks out some no big deal, Don't make it one.

What do you mean what should you do? Nothing. It’s part of you- it’s HIS problem if he’s “uncomfortable”

@BettyBeez Thanks Beez,my thoughts entirely. OK so most people have 'innies' but 'outies' aren't exactly rare. I've seen plenty at the beach, so I reiterate my first statement.

That sounds like his problem, not yours.

@novaguy2u not really

@hotchick22 Was your blouse unbuttoned, or were there gaps between buttons?

@novaguy2u it was through the my buttoned shirt

Wow that’s how my outie looked when I was a kid. And now it’s an innie. I got picked on all the time by kids and family members but I realized they were the ones with the issues. Plus my mom all ways had me in too small shirts that showed off my enormous belly button which I hated because it brought unwanted attention to me.
