Do you ever feel unattractive?

[Gleeboy1995]

I feel like my nose is too big and pointy

I don't have as much muscles like I would want

My neck seems to long

While I actually like my eyes they're sunken in and make my face look weird

My hair never looks good

aperance is not everything....its the personality that counts

This, you have to find someone who loves you for you. They do exist, honest. Dont live up to other peoples expectations you are you. Love yourself for who you are!

I wonder if more than a quarter of this forum finds themselves good looking. Everyone's so depressed here.

I always feel unattractive. And I don't have much of a personality to fall back on, seeing as my mental health is in ruins.

But the thing is, people who love you look at your inner beauty. And as soon as you realise that you'll begin to feel better about how you look too :)

I have the majority of the mirrors in my house turned around and I've actually received a fair amount of counselling because I have some bad issues with how I look, which has stemmed from bullying etc during high school. But as the others have said looks aren't all that matters and anyone that thinks otherwise really isn't worth your time or effort. Thats what I've learnt over the past 8 months anyway, there are some pretty shallow people out there but not everyone will only love you for your looks.

Interestingly enough, I've done something similar to what Aaron shared. I would cover the mirrors with some cloth. I'm not doing that now though, as it's not my place that I'm living in, but still, I know I shouldn't use them. I just ask with someone to make sure my hair isn't a mess and there's nothing on my face of course. Mirrors, for me, are very dangerous. They let me know exactly how I look, when usually, I can delude myself to think that it's not as bad as I think it is after a while of not seeing myself. They're also part of my paranoia, but that's beside the subject.

I've never gotten treatment for it. Everyone's tried to cure the symptom, but they very seldom dwell on the cause, for whatever reason.

There's always the "looks don't matter" approach, which works. My personal favourite though is that everyone is beautiful, and that's a fact. Not everyone can see their beauty, so we have to rely on others to accurately portray how we look to them, which is usually less harsh and more praising. At least, that's what a friend of mine told me, and I believe in that.

I am not attractive (I know that for a fact) but that doesn't mean I have to feel unattractive all of the time. I admit that sometimes I hate the way I look (I'm big-boned, wide-shouldered, short-legged, with a long torso, and an unattractive face w/ glasses) but I don't feel that way all of the time. Sometimes you have to realize that your appearance isn't the most important thing. It should never be the most important thing!

Your personality is the most important thing :). You can be very physically attractive but with a crappy inside, no one will want to be around you very long. Being who you are and staying true to yourself is what makes others like you. You can't get everyone to like you, and that's a fact! Being who you are, no matter what you look like, will draw people who will like you for you, and if you surround yourself with those people, you can be happy no matter your shape, size or appearance!

i always feel unattractive, my chest is different due to being a prem child, and that affects me alot, i hate it, i never show it. i feel fat often and i hate the way i look in general. but, on the odd occasion, illl see myself in a mirror in a certain way and for 10 seconds, i look nice :)

[okaannie]

nope.

Most people aren't happy with how they look, but as Rith said we will always see the worst in ourselves. You will always go straight to the bad points, and overlook all the good points. You've got to remember though, whatever you don't like other people don't see. People see you as a person, as a whole. Not as certain features that you dislike about yourself. By seeing you as a whole as well they see your personality, and that's what really matters.

[Emiil]

same, I don't feel very attractive.. my confidence is very low haha;pppp

[Philleeep]

Yeah i do, it takes ages for me to feel comfortable around people with any of my body showing.

[Craig1995]

Yeah all the time dude :(

[MilitemDilectam]

If you stare long enough, you start to see what you think as imperfections...stare at them even longer...then you see dangerous illusions. A solution (kind of humorous I'd say) is walk by the mirror briefly, tell yourself "I look dam good", smile and walk off and don't make the focus when looking in the mirror to find something wrong with you...JAS...

[DifferentTides]

Yeah, I a lot of the time get the feeling I am unatracttive and all that other associated stuff. A friend of mine actually randomly (just passively) said that he wakes up every morning, looks in the mirror and say's "Good morning, Damn i'm so sexy". I randomly did it one time, and as funny as it was it did kind of work in a way.

But aside from that, we all have different minds, and what we see as beauty and imperfections can be different for another person. Infact, someone might just adore and envy you for your features.

[BOSS]

Yes alllllll the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Triceratops]

I either see myself as very good looking, or extremely hideous. One extreme to the other.

Today I am hideous by the way.

[Costume]

I always feel unattractive but people like me for who I am and that's all that matters to me. :D

[Apollo.]

Sometimes I really do:(, I like looking in the mirror at the gym for some reason but not at home

[Pudd]

All the time. I'm a fat ass lazy bastard with long greasy ginger hair and my face is plastered in acne that refuses to leave.

[Iris]

yeah. i hate myself and everything about myself. Forget low self esteem, mine is non-existent.

[Teen141]

I hate the way I look :L Im so self concious about my appearence it's unbelieveable. I always think people im as unattractive as I do :(

[MaliciousBunface]

<- Ugly :3 I love this thread, everyone spewing out negativity. It's weird how sometimes you think you look good, then other times you're just like wtf I look terrible.
