Hi!
I'm 13 and I have my eye teeth missing due to removal and there's two big gaps where they should grow in. Does it make me unattractive to girls? I also have braces, and my smile looks stupid. Any help appreciated!

Personality will always carry the day. Someone who DOESN'T smile would probably be unattractive to many (most) people, girls included, so step up and be yourself.
I'm not an idiot, I know that this is easier said than done. Just hang in there and you'll be fine. Every day, day by day, things will change and you'll eventually look back on this time and wonder what all the fuss was about.

I don't understand the whole thing about looks because looks can fade. It's the personality that stays. I could be on a date with a jock who looks great but has a crumby attitude and a lame personality. Or I could go out with a regular guy who treats me well and can have a conversation and not look like Brad Pitt. It doesn't matter what a person looks like it matters who they are inside. And the fact that you are putting yourself down because you think your smile is stupid isn't helping you. Be confident in you, and don't worry what other people think.
