13/f.My friend can't hear herself sing.She gets bad grades and she's quite DUMB to say one thing.She has no like particular good "talent" except maybe art which she is good at but not really good..She's also kinda ugly,short, and very overweight.She really wants to be popular,skinny,pretty and all but she is lazy and in my opinion,doesn't try very hard.She likes music,and wanted to be a singer(found out a month ago and convinced her or at least I hope I convinced her)that it isn't the thing for her.I recommended a guitarist(not really) and an artist,but i don't think it'll happen.She is always teased by boys and other girls and she is always saying "I hate (whoever whoever that gossips about her) or I hate myself or I wanna die."Her personality doesn't stand out either because she is very self-conscious,sensitive,shy,quiet,unconfident,and just plain WEAK.Also,I can tell she is very jealous of me,which I HATE.She makes me mad when she acts so mean when I complain about boys chasing me,and random guys on the internet saying I'm pretty and all.I'm quite the opposite of her:friendly,cheerful,popular,slim,tall,pretty,smart,and such(well I guess sometimes I brag to her).I don't think it really matters and I try to point out the things that she is better at,which is her drawing and her tame character trait.Otherwise,she's a really good friend.She laughs easily and doesn't get mad too quick.She's patient,forgiving,and loyal.I really like her and I don't think I'm HALF as obedient as her.Can anyone give me advice on convincing her that looks and reputation aren't all??

With friends like you, who needs enemies?
You cannot possibly convince her that looks and reputation don't mean much, since it obviously means so much to you. Just the fact that you look at yourself as slim, tall, pretty and smart and you say she is ugly, short and very overweight--come on. what's on the outside is the only thing that matters to you.
And who are you to tell her she can't sing? A real friend would encourage her.
Do this girl a favor, stop pretending to be her friend, so she can go out and get some real friends.

What do you mean? I just said to her "Uhhh.....I don't really think singing is for you.Why don't you try something you're good at,like art?" LOL This was the least helpful answer,just to let you know.And for the "outside part" comment,I think a good sense of humor is important over looks any day.We've been friends for years,and she knows I love her to bits.At least be considerate and leave a bit of good advice. Oh, I don't count "stop 'pretending' to be her friend" as advice.Also,I never said she was ugly inside.I personally think she is a great person. Thanks anyway for responding.:D
