    The other people are probably just pointing it out because they don't have any or their jealous. I'd try not to let it get to you.

    I guess if it really bothers you though, maybe trim it? I know a few guys who have really long armpit hair and they just use an electric razor to trim (not completely shave) it.

    But really, it's a part of growing up. How old are you? Even if you're getting body hair earlier than most others, they'll get it eventually. This awkward period won't last long.

    Don't worry about it. Its not what others think its what they know that counts. And if the others are strangers then they know nothing of you. For everyone at everystage its different. So don't worry about it.

    Well this sounds like an insecurity problem. There's nothing I can say that will make you feel better about your body. Body hair is natural and it sounds like you're completely normal.

    Just try not to think about it. If you can't, maybe just don't take your shirt off.

    Is there another question besides how not to be nervous? If not, you just really need to try to calm yourself down and not think about it.
