how do i look?


Question Posted Sunday April 17 2005, 2:20 am

this is gonna seem like no big deal, but here's the thing: i think i'm ugly. i never really thought of it that much until i got to middle school...i looked at how much weight i need to lose... how ugly my eyebrows are...how my braces make my smile look like crap (actually, they don't let me smile right). the thing is that my friends say "how can you say you're ugly? i think you're pretty! not drop-ead googeous, but sooooooooo NOT ugly!" i know that girls are like that a lot, that we all look in the mirror and don't look at how pretty we are but how we need to fix hte bad stuff, but i need help on that. i don't see myself as the kind of girl a guy would like, or even how my guy friends can stand having a friend like me. i just always wonder what guys think when they see me... any way, my question is how do i see myself prettier? this may not seem like a problem, but i need to feel better to look better, but for that i need to be able to see myself better. i wanna know how my friends can see me as pretty. please don't tell me to focus on my personality because i don' see a personality when i look in a mirror. thanks to everyone just even if you don't answer it but for at least reading this huge thing!!! thanks!

Well, start by trying to find things about yourself that you like. Then like maybe fix your eyebrows, change your hairstayle, or stuff like that. Just slightly change stuff you don't like.

You need to boost up your self esteem. All girls are self conscious, but most of the time they don't need to be. What are your braces for? To give you a great smile. Go to a beauty shop and they'll fix your eyebrows. Look at the ups of your face/body whatever. Don't look at the negatives!

Choose one thing about yourself that you like a lot. It doesn't have to be anything big, your nose, your eyes, a birthmark..anything! And whenever you start to feel ugly, think about that one thing and think of all the people who hate that about themselves! Also, check out this article from spacefem.com. It will help.

Same as me.. I just been looking at the bad things.. Now what i have done is got up and done something about it, listed on what i dont like and how i could change it..

1. My eye brows - I got them waxed
2. My fekkals - got good foundation
etc, i been getting ready to go out and i just cant wait becuase i know i look prettier and so will every one else.. if i can feel prettier by wearing hoops, or make up for a change even though my crazy wild hair lets me down then course you can becuase seriously no one can get as ugly as me! But still just think of your self and not others, who cares what they think, they can get lost some one out there will think your just right!

And about the braces -
read my 2nd page in my advice coloum about them i have them two and the tips are great!
thanks lush me hope it helps xx

Try going to the grocery store or to the mall and look at every one else. Really look. Don't look at the girls who have spend 2 hours getting ready with hair and make up and everything just perfect. Look at the regular people. How do you compare to them? YOu have youth on your side, In y book, that makes you beautiful. Also the braces are going to come off some day, and eyebrows can be plucked.
Go to the make up counter at the department store for a make over. Don't have one, Call an avon lady or mary kay lady, the will do a make up application.

Look just at your eyes....eyes are beautiful. Whether brown or blue. Also smile. We don't usually smile at ourselves in the mirror, but you do smile to your fiends. REally smile, and see how much better you look. Everyone looks beautiful when they smile. How is you skin, good condition? Make sure you take care of it.
Use the best products and keep it clean and soft. Beautiful skin is attractive to everyone. And taking care of your skin will reward you with beautiful skin your whole life.
Also be patient. Many of the beautiful models you see in magazines once thought they were ugly also.
Hope this helped.

if you maybe doll yourself up, do your hair nicely, where nice (but not too much make up) you will see yourself as looking better!! you may think that it won't work but i don't think your looks are the problem here, i think if you think you look better (by lil make up and nice hair!!) then you will have more self-confidence! more self-confidence gets you noticed a lot more than if your just pretty!! give it a go, try and forget what other people think of you for the time being and focus on what you think of you!! im sure your not that bad, no one is that bad, i think you have the idea, don't focus on whats rong about you but on whats nice about you!! you have to remember 5 out of 10 people have braces at some point in their life!! another thing, do NOT compare yourself to those prettier than you, they were just born like that... focus on you and you only!! sorry its so long!! Good Luck!
