How can I stop focusing on how abnormally ugly I am?
Not trying to brag, but I have such an awesomely lovely personality. I care about people infinitely more than I could ever care about myself. I give my last ten dollars to someone who needs it more than me. I would sacrifice all my sleep to stay up listening to someone rant or giving them advice even if I don't know them too well or they've hurt me in the worst way possible. I compliment everyone, especially if they seem like they've had a bad day. I feel people's pain, I cry with them. I talk good about everyone; I NEVER have anything bad to say about anyone. I've never hit a person that includes slapping, so yeah, I've never been in a fight once in my life. I'm usually called the sweetest thing ever with the biggest heart. My dream career has always been to help people - but I chose to do senior caregiving since I love the elderly with all my heart. I pray for everyone's happiness, because it hurts my heart to think about someone in pain. I never yell or argue with anyone.
I love my personality, even though I feel I could improve it so much more. But I just find myself SO ugly. :'( And it really bothers me, even though most people say I'm very beautiful. How can I see it, or at least be able to just focus on my personality? I just feel so low about myself. I don't feel good enough for anyone, which is why I only have one friend. Maybe someone could give me advice on feeling good enough too? :'( I'm just so depressed because of this, please help! :'(

You sound like a very positive person, and it is important for you to be comfortable in your own skin. After all, there are some things we can change about ourselves, and some things we can't. The best possible thing we can do is learn to accept the things we can't change (I know in such a superficial society this is much easier said than done).
There are people out there who see passed the superficial, and having the strength and confidence go through life not worrying about what people think is one of the biggest liberators in existence. Besides, why would we want to surround ourselves with superficial people?
I know there is no easy answer for how you feel, but learning to accept yourself and love yourself is going to make all the difference in the world.
