I feel that I'm totally ugly and yes I am. How can I make myself feel prettier?

no one is ugly! But if you would like to feel prettier then, try different hair styles, light shades of make-up, new more populer brands of clothing, or a new attitude, if you have a mean, rude, or REALLY shy attitude people may think of you as ugly. But just remember you're not ugly and no one else is ugly either!!!

I need help with friends! So many people have people to hang out with at school but I feel like I am just walking around and talking to random people! They are my friends but I don't have best friends! I don't go shopping with people I just go see movies with them! Am I a weird person? So my question is Give me ideas about making friends and Am I weird?

You are not wierd! Some people just have a harder time relating to others. If you would like a best friend try talking to people and see if they have the same interests. If this doesn't work please ask me again.

my dad has always hated dogs, but I am an only child with no mother in a tiny neighborhood! Should I ask for a dog or a goldfish?

Dogs can be hard to handle by yourself, but then again goldfish can die easy and you can't run around with them. You should ask your dad at a calm time if it would be ok for you to get a pet. Then ask him about what kind and why you would like one. A pet could be good for the both of you. (you could add that)
