I've had similar worries but my ex boyfriend (who I would have thought way too attractive to even look at me 5 years ago) told me this little gem that helped a lot:

If I guy has gotten to the point where he's going to get to take your clothes of and possibly get to sleep with you, he's WAY too geeked and happy to notice all the flaws you see. You could grow another set of arms and a guy in that situation would think they were angel's wings.

ETA: And trust me, I've got rolls, no butt, saggy (and small) boobs, bat wings on my upper arms, etc. and I developed the confidence to keep the lights ON! No matter how gross you think you are, a combination of the right person and some serious work on your self confidence will help you greatly in that area.

You ladies are right of course,and it does help to know I'm/we are not alone.
The guy I was talking to turned out to be a jerk,and luckily I found out before I even got close to that point.
So,maybe by the time I ever do meet the right guy...I'll be in a better place anyway.
