A doctor pointed out 20 year old scars, now I think my husband is disgusted by them.

I never was bothered by my scars before, I have them down my forearm it’s not a lot but they are very prominent on my skin, I had an appointment with an LNI doctor for an unrelated thing and she points to my scars and asked how I got those. Now I’m irritated because she knew what type of scars they are, the placement and depth is obvious, and there was no reason to ask me that at all. These scars are over 20 years old. So I’m pissed and annoyed and I’m venting to my husband on the way home from the appointment. He was quiet. So I went quiet and flat out asked if my scars bugged him. We’ve never talked out them before. He kind of looked disgusted annoyed and said that he just doesn’t look at them.

Now I’m really self conscious, I know it is strange but I wore them with some what of a pride knowing that I overcame the worst part of my life and survived it even though I didn’t want to. I honestly didn’t realize he was possibly l disgusted by them. I guess that’s was somewhat selfish of me. I was wearing a long sleeve to my appointment that was rolled up, I ended up rolling my sleeves down. I think I will invest in some long sleeves until I can figure out an away to get rid of them. I love my husband and I do understand where he’s coming from. I was just hoping since it was over 20 years ago it wouldn’t have been a big deal. Does anyone have any advice on how to possibly fade my scars a little bit?
