ugly!


Question Posted Sunday July 17 2005, 9:20 pm

Hi. im not writing this question for people to tell me im unique and crap, but lately, ive just been feeling bad. I think im ugly. People always tell me that im ugly. its just my face..i mean my nose is just so weird that i feel so self conscious and whenever im with my friends it hurts me so much always seeing guys all flirting with them and stuff. ive never been asked out, and people always tell me that im ugly. i know its mean, and only sometimes i feel pretty. i know that if i feel beautiful, i am beautiful, and being confident is bueatiful, but i dont want that crap. i need some way to make me feel better about myself....any suggestions?

afro_timmy answered Wednesday July 20 2005, 3:48 pm:
hi
first let me tell you that you are not ugly! and the more you believe that the more ugly you will feel! so stop putting yourself down all the time. and about you thinking your ugly. i know its hard to stop feeling so down about yourslef but honestly once you start to realise what a great person you are and what great people are out there for you to meet the less ugly you will feel. you mention your nose dont be self conscious about it. whenever you are with your mates again just think in your mind "i am gorgeous" over and over again untill you shine with confidence and beauty. honestly. so who cares that you have never been asked out? just wait for the perfect boy to come and whisk you off your feet! :) just be happy and let your confidence shine through. i think part of your low self esteem is pschological sorry if the answer not what you wanted but its true. and also treat yourself to some new clothes, make up transform your image. if you are really unhappy with the way you look, go to your doctor and explain and you might get a free operation to fix the problem (i dont know if you are in the uk but that is what happens over here) but then remember if you do, you have let your low self esteem bully you into surgery and u want to be happy without any thing like that!
hope i helped.... tell me how it goes
love emma

chakra answered Wednesday July 20 2005, 3:44 pm:
i'm guessing you young, in your teens. people at that age are so cruel and it hard because you at that age where your trying to fit in and feel confident and be yourself.
you sometimes think you are pretty which is a good start because if you were ugly you'd see that and feel that all the time.
you need confidence, i also am very insecure about my looks and was bullied loads but i found that councelling helped boost my confidence loads, it got to a point where i could cope with bullies and stand up for myself and not be afraid to go out incase i got called ugly, so i think that can be a good step for you to take. if you have school/college councelling then its free or if you go through your doctor and asked to be refferd thats free too.
also, another thing that gave me a huge confidence boost was having a makeover in a shop. it was for my birthday, but they are so nice and make you look really beautiful. that will boost your confidence too and make you feel better about yourself. (mine cost £10 but you got £10 off make up so its like having a free makeover)
also, experiment with your clothes, hair and make up, find out which styles suit you best and which colour make ups, the ones you use now might not be making you look your best but if you have a proffessional makeover they'll tell you how to do your make up properly and find out what suits your face best.

Buy yourself a man whore for a night.
Just like the movie Duece Bigalow - Male Gigalo.

Most of the ladies in that movie felt a great deal better about themselves, so i'm sure it would do you the world of good.
As we all know, movies always tell the truth.

twistedteen25 answered Monday July 18 2005, 8:40 pm:
Don't worry about it the best way to get rid of that feeling is to make yourself feel better. Do something that you wanna do or you haven't done. But if the guys only want girls with good looks chances are if you went out with them you would dump them right away. Ps another way to feel better is to get a makeover for your room rearrange it, organize it etc. and go shopping, get new makeup, new clothes!
Hope you'll feel better!

BWvolley answered Monday July 18 2005, 3:45 pm:
Just because someone hasn't asked you out...that doesn't mean your aren't beautiful. I am a model and I didn't get asked out until I was a freshman!!! Guys are jerks and sometimes they can't see true beauty. God has a wonderful plan for your life and the right guy will come along. Trust God with your life and pray about it every day. Anyone can give you advice...but no one can fill the emptiness inside you. The only one who can ever fill that is God. So just pray and trust Him....and eventually it will all work out. One of my favorite verses is "All things work for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

VixenDark answered Monday July 18 2005, 7:43 am:
Go shopping! Pick out cute clothes, nice makeup, cute shoes, the works. Anything that you like and looks good on you. Then just be yourself! If people say you are ugly, ignore them.

And like they say, beauty is only skin deep. Try using other facets of your personality to get guys. If they just like you for looks, chances are you wouldn't want them anyway.

Michele answered Sunday July 17 2005, 10:39 pm:
Look at all the people in the world that have accomplished soooo much. You see them on TV. They have intelligence, they have power. Many of them are not pretty. But anyone that has not accomplished what they have would be thrilled to be in their company. I am talking about politicians, artists, musicians, athletes. Talent and brains bring power and when you have power, it doesn't matter what you look like. BEsides, you'll be rich and you'll can get a make over if you still think you need one. I am serious, because you said you were. This won't happen when you want it to. Unfortunately, Because you are still young. But it can happen, but you have to plan and work at it. Stay in school. get a good education, go to college work hard. Turn in good work. Do extra work. BE proud of what you accomplish, then accomplish more. Take an "I can do that" attitude. Because you can do anything you set your mind to. And don't expect the rewards right away, but if you do all this. There will be rewards, believe me. Trust me. I know what I am talking about. It happened to me. I thought I was an ugly duckling in school and no one ever asked me out. I just hit the books an did well and went to college. I have had a very successful career and own my own home and my own business.And more men were attracted to me that I knew what to do with. When I went to my 30 year class reunion, I lookede better than anyone else there. THe guys kept trying to talk to me, and the girls that were sooooo pretty in high school, looked ragged and beat and old. I took care of myself and my body and looked much younger and better than all of them. It was a lot of fun and I showed them all. And it felt good to turn down dates from guys that wouldn't give me the time of day in High School. And hey, the 30 years that I spent between high school graduation and my reunion were not boring either. They were great. So that is my advice. I hope you take it. It is hard work, and it will take patience to. But it will all be worth it. Anyone can accomplish this if they set their mind to it. I didn't think I was very smart either, but turns out, I WAS!!!!
GOod luck to you

I know you don't want to here that your unique, but you are God has a purpose for everyone. Just because your different now just wait till you get older. See the thing is all your friends are pretty now but when they get older there going to be the ones that don't get the attention and your going to have all the attention. If your worried about your nose don't worry you can always get a nose job everyone does it now a days, but don't feel like your ugly just because you haven't come into your beauty yet.

aww hunny. i know how it feels!! but everyone is beautiful. i suggest maybe getting a makeover. maybe you should tell your parent/guardian that you are feeling this way and seriously ask them if you could get a makeover. try a new hairstyle, new color, and get some makeup tips from the stylist. also try getting some new clothes and a shopping spree always helps. nothing feels better than walking around in a new outfit!! hope i helped:)

not_your_star34 answered Sunday July 17 2005, 9:50 pm:
Kids are so mean these days. You wanna know the real reason they call you ugly? That's because they're insecure with themselves, so they put others down to make themselves feel good.

Ways to raise your self-esteem? Be yourself. Wear what you feel best in. Be nice and considerate to others, and when I say this, I mean that you should not stoop to the people who call you ugly's level. The only true self-esteem comes from yourself, from within, not from putting down other people. And SMILE. Be happy! Hang out with friends, do things that make you happy!

You're not gonna get anywhere with that "I'm so ugly" attitude, so get rid of that. Instead, praise yourself. Like, when you get up in the morning, say to yourself, "You know what? I look GREAT today."

I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave one in my inbox!

HyperactiveMiss answered Sunday July 17 2005, 9:42 pm:
I don't have any specific advice to make you feel better about yourself, but I wrote this to someone that had the same problem and maybe it will help you...

DON'T listen to any of the people that say you should cover yourself up with make-up! I mean, you COULD if you wanted to, but is this truely how you want to be? Cover yourself with make-up just so you could blend in with the crowd? Lure in a guy just because he likes your mask? When happens when people see the real you? Will they love you for you or will they immediately dump you? Those are some questions you need to think about. In fact, you yourself said you want to learn how to like yoursel the way you are. So stick with that.

When I looked in the mirror I used to think I was ugly! Which is what EVERYONE (There are exceptions) thinks about themselves! Even the most beautiful girls can think they're ugly. Take models for example. They're gorgeous, but if their chin looks a little fat in one picture they call themselves ugly and become anorexic. Not a good thing. It's all in the MIND.

It's not our fault, I'll tell you that. It's the media. They have influenced everyone. They've gotten everyone to buy their products. They set the standards for beauty, which no one can achieve. The models in pictures aren't even that beautiful, they use the computer to make them PERFECT. The media doesn't care about us! They care about making money.

It's also genetics. We are born the way we are and look the way we do because of our parents. Now, don't go blaming your parents or ancestors. Our genes are what makes each and every one of us different. They make us unique!

So you need to remember that it is not YOU that is ugly. NO ONE is ugly. The word UGLY is all in the MIND. It's an OPINION. Opinions are set by the media. So you see, it's not your fault. You need to learn to love the way you are. Focus on your good points. DO IT. Even if it's just one thing a day, like "My nose is nice." ANYTHING. Every day, do it in front of the mirror. And don't just focus on your looks. Look INSIDE of you and tell yourself what's good. Don't ever put yourself down. You are beautiful and wonderful. This world isn't perfect, and no one can be. But the least you can do is learn to love yourself for who you are. You can't love someone else if you can't even love yourself.
