I'm 15 and I'm going into 10th grade I've been in high school for a year now and I go to a VERY small school...and everyone except for 3 people hate me because of one mistake I made 2 years ago. And I can't really apologize to someone because its everyone who hates me because of it. I don't want to go another 3 years with everyone hating me..I know there's always gonna be someone that hates me but I don't know what to do. I've always had very low self esteem and I've always thought I was really ugly and I don't know how to change it. I've gone to councilors and they haven't helped at all. I go in my room almost everyday I think about that mistake and I often cry about it.I don't know how to fix it and I don't know if I even can fix it!?! (link)

First,let me start out by saying I understand where you are coming from,truly. Second, the most attractive aspect of a person is their self confidence! When you are confident, it radiates and people are compelled to gravitate towards the positive energy you spread. Naturally, we all avoid someone who is a "Debbie Downer" it doesn't matter how pretty or how popular you are, people will still avoid you.
I'm sure you say easier said than done. But it is that easy. At 15 a had braces, acne, and can from a poor family of which I couldn't afford the cool clothes. So I decided as a defense mechanism to be bold, and act unlike my usual shy reserved self.I went almost overnight from being the girl who sat alone at lunch, to the girl that people wanted to sit with. What does this have to do with your question? Attitude! People respond to you based on how much you respect not only them,but yourself. If you are confident and sincere in your actions and words, then you will be heard. You must also not be making the same mistakes currently to be taken seriously.
You just need to apologize. Even if they are rude or mean while you are apologizing, the act itself will weigh on them, and they will. Just stay confident. If they don't forgive you, then no sweat.You will have much to stress over when you are older, save it for then! Hope this helps.
