Q: All of my friends and family tell me that I am beautiful, and so pretty. But when I look in the mirror, I am like.."eww." I can't take it anymore, I feel disgusted at myself. When I first meet people, they go, "wow you are beautiful!" I don't know if they are telling the truth or not. I have had people come up to me and ask if I model. But when I look in the mirror, I just don't see it. I have a boyfriend, he is wonderful, but he never tells me that I am beautiful. I went to a dance with him and he calls me up after and says, "hey, sorry I forgot to say you looked really nice tonight." and well he never said I look pretty or anything. I just don't know what to do. Is there any way to gain confidence on your looks? I am very outgoing..but sometimes I get so self conscious that I feel like I just want to go home and stay in the house. I am pretty popular at my school so I know it isn't a social disorder thing, because I have no problem with making friends. I just am so self conscious. Does anybody know of a way to stop being this way?

ok first of all i think everyone is self conscious. i have a similar situation to you becuz like even people stop me in the mall to ask me to join their modeling agency (im signed with 1) and people are like can i take your picture and stuff and im 5'5" and 110 lbs. but in real life i feel really fat and ugly but i listen to what people say and i feel so much better so just listen to people who tell you ur beautiful.

thanks =]
