My Funny Picture - How to deal with being ugly??????

How to deal with being ugly??????

I am honestly really ugly, and I will never be one of those pretty girls who look good in pictures or even just an 'ok' looking girl. The worst part is that it is nothing I can control. I am not fat, I am a good weight, I have well groomed eyebrows, and I have a mostly clear complexion, I get some acne occasionally. And it really hurts just to go through everyday life. I hate having a facebook just because I hate seeing all the pictures of me that just look terrible, and I can never take a good picture because I am so ugly. And then there are all those girls who look so pretty in EVERY single picture. People are rude or condescending sometimes because I am ugly, and I am definitely the 'ugly friend'. All my friends get the cute guys. I can't even really make up for it in any other ways too. I'm not extremely smart, I not very outgoing, or funny, and I even have a lisp. I really cannot deal with this. Any suggestions?

:\ I am exactly like you though I know you can't look as bad as I do. But I'm sorry you feel that way. What makes someone pretty though has to do with her self confidence and personality. You don't need to be the best in anything. You'll find him some day because in the end, what kindness you give will come right back to you. Have you tried wearing some makeup? [:
Reading this made me sad =( I know how you feel, I take horrible pictures as well. It's so depressing. But I just try to have fun, go places, make friends, draw, write, dance, sing, party=) Enjoy life you've got it for a reason! God bless (=
Im not pretty,im a loner, i have a really bad personality,im alittle below average in intelligence, and I also have a lisp. I cant think of one think good about myself but I still tell myself Im pretty everyday and I try to smile alot and not worry about what people think of me. You probably arent as bad looking as you think you are. Remember that we can be our harshest critic sometimes. Even the most beautiful women in the world can think she has imperfections and be really insecure. Just try to make yourself look nice. Dont be one of those girls that thinks they are ugly so they never ever try to look nice. Im sure you are very pretty. Also you are so lucky you dont get alot of pimples because I get them everywhere! You are really lucky for that. Im jealous :) Oh and I LOVE your name. Rebecca is so pretty :)
Well there has to be something you could do. In your opinion you might think there's nothing, but from another persons perspective they might see something that you don't. I'm not a creeper, I'm a seventeen year old girl who used to feel the same way, if you want you can email me a picture of yourself and I could give you some suggestions.

just dress really nice and that will make up for it...and honestly i dont think u should think of yourself like that..just try to see the positive things in your life
I know it sounds like a cliche but I am a firm believer in the old saying that beauty is only skin-deep. Some of the most beautiful people I have ever had the misfortune of meeting have been so ugly on the inside that it just comes through & people notice this. Besides, I don't think people are ever as bad looking as they think they are & anyway, your true friends will think you are beautiful & when you meet Mr (or Mrs if you are that way inclined) Right THEY will too!!!!!
So much easier said than done... but learn to start loving yourself and focusing less on the physical. Look aren't everything, even though you might believe they are. You can't beat yourself up over it. I would start by first making a list of 50 things you're grateful for, and then keeping that list with you. As for the other social part, work on your social skills. A lot of times obese people are the funniest people around... they almost have to be. But they've picked up on something, and that's the fact that if you're friendly and funny, people WILL like you. So just try to stay positive/optimistic in front of other people, even if you don't really feel that way deep down. At parties and stuff, try pretending you're someone you look up to (ex: Cameron Diaz). Act how you think she would act. Just throw yourself out there... people generally appreciate it. Ps. Remember, "Women whose identities depend more on their outsides than their insides are dangerous when they begin to age."
I feel the same way, People always compliment me, but when i look in the mirror i pretty much pick myself apart and find every flaw i have and makes my self esteem drop to an all time low... :( You just have to think about it this way, FIND THE GOOD THINGS ABOUT YOURSELF!! like you said; youre a good weight, you dont have acne, your eyebrows are good. Life isnt about looks anyways, or at least it shouldnt be. We are ALL gonna get old and fat and wrinkly one day,so dont even stress about it. Youre meant to enjoy life, dont let these type of things get you down... Its all about confidence too!! And self esteem! i think i can look prettier than some of my friends sometimes but they always get cuter boyfriends than me, and it really is because of their confidence and the way they "carry themselves" And dont worry about the whole picture thing because half those girls edit their pics to make them look better, so its a lie anyways. But you could always try; -Playing with makeup; Enhance your features or experiment and what looks best -Change your hairstyle -Dye your hair -
You're probably not ugly, just pretty in a quirky sense, which isn't bad. I'm quirky cute and I have a not-so-nice body and I have gotten all sorts of hot guys. The key is to be patient and wait until you are out of high school. Once you hit 21 the whole game changes, it seems. Tons of guys are looking for a normal girl who isn't too smart, who is kinda shy. You can work on things like the lisp and the sense of humor. Just try to be comfortable with yourself, learn to love yourself because you're not as pretty as some girls, and most of all RELAX about it and the rest will fall into place. I promise.
I think you need to gain some confidence... read over what you wrote, slap yourself and start over. Maybe even get some new friends, because it seems as if they are not helping the situation either.
Seriously, being "ugly" isn't that much of a big deal. You just have to meet the right people. You even said you have friends to compare yourself with, so if you have friends that must mean you have decent personality right? If you have a good personality you can attract lots of people and have good relationships with them (even if its not serious). Just make your personality bloom more if you honestly think you can't change the way you look. And seriously, it's not even hard to make yourself look pretty. A change in style and some make up (not a lot though) can really change a persons appearance a lot. I don't know if it's the same for everyone, but for me, when someone has a good personality it somehow changes my perception of how they look to me. You should post a picture up if you want some good tips
show us a pic of urself.. maybe u just need a makeover and we can help tell u wht u need like makeup or a tan or a new hair style or somethinf
wowowow I don't think you should give up that easily, You could maybe get braces and try some new hairstyles like curling your hair with hot rollers and maybe getting some clip in hair extensions? You could curl your eyelashes and use mascara to make them look lovely ^_^
MY EXACT PROBLEM i am so ugly. i just figured it out because my dad took my picture for christmas cards. im actually crying its so bad. i think the best thing u can do is get a haircut, new clothes, and if you want guys to notice you start with singling out one guy, not an extremely popular one but at the same time not a geek like average and try smiling at him or saying hi, i mean seriously whats the worst thing he can say when u say "hi", if he said anything rude he'd sound like a jerk. ive noticed (i know i will sound like a slut) if you dress in tight clothes not really loose clothes it helps. by the way try getting a new hairstyle im going to do that next week, if i can get through this week =S blonde is a great color take my advice dont go with black. lisps can be cute on some people this really short boy whos adorable has a lisp (hes 14) and its so cute! try talking to a councellor about it, theres one at every school. at school try to pretend like it doesnt bother you, holding your head up helps and makes it seem like you dont care what people think. some people are beautiful and think theyre ugly (my friend). you might be that way and you just dont know it
