Nail Biters

[oscarina]

Are you a nail biter or do you know nail biters, I don't bite my nails and they are still brittle, envy those who bite strong nails! If I see someone maybe in a queue etc biting their nails I feel like shouting stop! Almost as addictive as smoking!

I used to bite my nails but stopped as soon as I got engaged for the first time. If I feel like biting them now I tend to give them a manicure instead.

Bitten nails look awful . I nearly have a nervous breakdown if I break a nail :)

I used to bite my nails right down when I was a youngster, but when I got engaged and then married I tried to keep them nice. I don't have strong nails they break a lot. Atm they are all one length but I know they won't last long.

lol shaney the first time I went on a cruise with a friend she couldn't understand why I burst into tears when I smashed all the nails on one hand closing a wardrobe door....

I've never bitten my nails, but for as long as I can remember I've bitten the insides of my cheeks.

Oh I know the feeling Craft .You just get them all to one length and then .....ping .....
I sometimes have been shopping and come home with a pinger . I can only imagine I left it on the cheese counter somewhere :) Supermarkets are the worst place for pinging your nails .

my nails are very soft despite taking supplements, always have been. However now and again they grow well - I have good thumbnails at the moment. I don't bite.

I've bitten my nails since I was 8 years old. Tried everything to stop but still bite them.

I did when I was little then a lad I liked said he hated bitten fingernails so I stopped and haven't since :)

I bit my nails right down from childhood all the way into adulthood

Then one day someone on the radio said that there are more germs under your nails than there are on a toilet seat

Not sure if it's true but I've never bitten them since
