I feel ugly ALL the time and get jealous when i see pretty girls, i wish that was me.
But like.. im not the ugliest person ever but im not pretty either.
i really need a confidence boost im going on holiday soon with a mate who i totally have a crush on but im gonig to be so ashamed of my looks and body and im going to be totally embarrassed.
How can i get my confidence level up and feel beautiful?
For a quick confidence boost, treat yourself to a mini makeover before you leave for holiday. Browse magazines and look for a hairstyle you like, get a haircut, go to a makeup counter in a department store and get your makeup done for free (and ask for makeup tips during application), and go shopping for a few new outfits.
If you are on a budget, just improvise.
But most importantly, accept yourself for who you are. I know it's hard because I've been down that same road before, but nothing is more attractive than self-confidence.
A little note for reassurance, the guys that date girls solely on looks are usually assholes. The good guys will accept you for who you are, and on a plus side...guys like girls with some meat on them compared to skinny minny girls.

If he really likes you he'll see whats on the inside, and appreciate that. Besides, most people put themselves down about their looks, but they aren't actually ugly. The magazines and modeling companies definitely effect the view people have on themselves, whether its pyschological or you can actually notice it. Don't compare yourself to other girls though, because they're doing the same exact thing, comparing themselves to other girls and thinking theyre ugly. Maybe somebodys looking at you and thinking that, you just have to try to stay positive. Also, everyone has something about them that they especially like whther its physical or not, but if you can recognize that, flaunt it babe! Anyway I hope you feel better, and good luck on your date!

And when it comes down to it, thats what really matters in a realtionship. A realtionship based on looked is doomed to fail. As long as you're pure on the inside, you shouldn't have to worry about the outisde, because the best people are the ones who look at who you are on the inside, not on the outisde.

heyybaby answered Wednesday March 15 2006, 6:41 pm: Mm, there are days all of us feel that way, believe me. Try standing in front of a mirror and noticing your positive features. You have to have something gorgeous about you, whether it's inside or out. Find something about you that you love, convince yourself you're pretty. Keep thinking to yourself that you're a beautiful person inside & out, eventually your confidence will be boosted! :] Don't worry, girl, once you can find some things that you like about yourself all will go well! :] [ heyybaby's advice column | Ask heyybaby A Question ]
