Karene,
No, you don’t need to change anything about your appearance or your body, as he already likes you for you. From what it appears, he seems to be attracted to you and genuinely have special feelings towards you, to invite you to this house and watch movies on the couch. He definitely respects you to know that you were raped in the past and to respect your personal space. When the movie was over, you could have both went to bed cuddling each other without the expectations of intimacy. I don’t see the harm in cuddling and holding each other in bed while you two slept that night.
If he follows you on FB, that is yet another good sign that he really admires you and wants to have concerns with you on social media. I’m sure he still has a lot of feelings for you but there’s an obvious lack of communication going on between the two of you. I’m not sure why that is but you’ll have to reach out to him. Also, those women are probably just friends and don’t believe he would photoshop people in his photos. I’d talk to him about it though first, before assuming anything. Many people have nicknames on their FB accounts, it isn’t anything unusual these days.
Again, there is definitely no need to change your appearance, you are beautiful just the way you are, he loved from he beginning just the way you are and he will love and care for you just they way you are now. Everything you wrote at the beginning about him, tells me that he very much so thinks you are special and beautiful and enjoys every moment of being in your presence. His big smiles towards you and the face of you not working on the weekends weren’t of rejection, they were of disappointment because every moment spent with you was special, so when he knew you weren’t going to be around on certain weekends, he was going to miss you dearly. All these things spells – I am in love with you, I miss you when you are not around/present.
You are certainly good enough and you’re not plain nor ugly! Hell no hun! “body dysmorphia” That isn’t true either, as I can tell you care about your body from what you’ve written about yourself. Everyone woman craves attention and deserves it from the person she loves and vice versa. He probably does believe all the other women at your workplace are average and that you are the only the beautiful one, which is most definitely a great thing. 🙂
I hope for your sake, you get back in touch with this person, you seem to have had a very special bond with him and you don’t need to be hard on yourself anymore, you are a beautiful woman inside and out. And remember – You are always good enough hun!
Sending you lots of love, positivity and light your way…<3
