WHY does everyone around me have to be pretty?!
15/f
I hate that I'm actually posting this, but here it goes..
I have some self-esteem issues. I'm not pretty, but I think I'm okay with that part. It's just that I don't feel like there's anything to 'balance' that out, you know? There are a ton of girls who are amazing because of their personality, even if they're not incredibly pretty. I'm really not outgoing. I have a problem with being afraid of how people will react to me, if that makes sense.
What sucks the most is that I know where this came from, and I know its stupid, but I can't get over it. Ever since I was really young, my family has compared me to my perfect, insanely pretty cousin. Plus, all my friends are gorgeous. HOW do I get over this?? I want to be able to flirt with a guy without immediately realizing how pointless it is.

just dont care what people say. i know a lot of ugly people that get with pretty people because of confidence. your worrying to much about what other people gain instead of what you gain. its not anymore self esteem problem as it is being a pessimist.

I look at things differently. Just because people are prettier than me, doesnt mean I have to focus on that. I focus on me, my needs and goals and plans on how to get my needs met. These people are not putting up beauty shields that keep you from succeeding. Get a makeover, you would be amazed at the difference a haircolor, cut, makeup and outfit can make. Hit the gym. I have a pretty face but lately I gained 40 lbs. I couldn't get a date if I hot glued two supermodels to me. I started working out and lost most of the weight-problem solved. I have a friend with a hot body and a horse face, she got tons of make up and learned how to put it on and now she appears to be the perfect package. Spend time, money effort and focus on you appearance and you will see a difference, that is what it takes to accomplish anything even a career.
