Answer 1

look at all the ppl uglier than you are, and dont lie, theres gotta be tons. obviously i have no clue what u look like but i know this girl and shes seriously gorgeous, really really beautiful but she thinks her sister is prettier and feels over shadowed by her, even tho shes tons bettter looking than her sister. anyway i think its just a mental thing, im sure you look fine, you're just being paranoid.

Answer 2

I have put myself down many times before and I sometimes feel ugly and totally gross. Just remember that there is always going to be someone who is better looking than you, and someone who is worse. Just focus on your positives and note that looks aren't everything, though they may seem it. I'm sure your a nice person and that's what really matters! Even the 'perfect' people find faults with themselves! Nobody is perfect and everything and everyone was put on earth for a reason. Next time someone tells you that you are pretty, believe them!! Life is too short to worry about what you look like, so just enjoy your life! All you can do is make the most of yourself, and as you have to live with yourself, you may as well just accept you for who you are!

Hope this helps - stuff like this helped me! :) xx

Answer 3

you're thoughts can create the life you want. the more you think negative the more negative things that will come your way and vice versa.

Stay positive and think good things about yourself.  Everyone is differnt and you'll learn to accept everything about yourself. it takes time to grow and truly accept who you are...flaws and all!

Answer 5

Your negative thoughts are your own worst enemy. You see someone who is nice looking, you make an instant comparison to yourself, and if you're feeling negative that day, you're the looser in your mind, and then you feel bad for the rest of the day. You connect peoples appearance to how they must be in life. EX: Cool outfit. Translation: That person must have it all together, lots of parties, tons of friends, and a great job. They're superior to me in every way. NEWSFLASH: Its just an outfit. Appearances mean nothing.    

I used to do it too, id be shopping in the mall by myself, see a group of girls that just look like they're having a ball, then feel bad because now i think everyone thinks im a looser because im by myself. So i get sad and go home. And just like that, my day is ruined because some girls were enjoying their outing together. See how ridiculous that is? The same goes for feeling bad about yourself because someone has on a really nice outfit today. Its just one day, its just an outfit, and NO ONE REALLY CARES... only you are making that comparison between you two. Everyone else is too concerned with how they look to everyone else.
