I am in the same situation with MY best friend. She thinks she's fat when she has a body that all the guys LOVE!
I "pepped" her up by giving her the old fashioned "Pep talk". Bring up all the times that guy has hit on her because of her looks. Bring up times when people have said she is pretty. Tell her that she is beautiful to you, no matter what. Beauty is within and looks don't really matter. Sometimes, they do but in her case, they don't. I'm sure she IS physically beautiful. Just because ONE guy says, "Ew. You're ugly," doesn't mean that she has to be depressed. That's his oppinion and you know what? He should go to Hell because he is both physically and mentally ugly!
If he is telling beautiful girls with good self esteems and high heads that their not pretty, he doesn't even deserve to live because he is RUINING the way people think of themselves. Now, whenever your friend looks in the mirror, she's not going to see anything but ugly. But she is pretty and you have to let her know that. I'm not all that pretty either... I have people tell me I'm ugly all the time. My own GRNDMOTHER tells me I'm ugly. I don't care because I have friends that love me and know me and respect me for ME. Not for my looks. As long as she has you, nothing can go wrong. She needs to know that. She has you and you will be with her 100% of the way. All my friends think their fat but I know they're not even CLOSE.
She has to know that physical beauty is important but not as much as the beauty inside of each and every individual.
As long as you let her know this, she will think better and cheer up. Try to make her laugh and take her somewhere fun like the movies, to get her mind off of wht she looks like!
You can email me if you want to tell me updates on this at x_pink_x109@yahoo.com O.K? You can also drop one in my inbox. I'm here for you and I'm here for your friend, too. If you need more help, you can email me in any of these two places... or BOTH! :-)
Best of luck!
Hope I helped!
