I have been told I'm beautiful and pretty. I honestly don't think I am. I also have been told I'm ugly. I have been beginning to think that because guys at school don't like me, at least none that I know of. Nobody is flirting with me or buying me lunch....nothing. Could this be true?

I'm not saying I don't like others. I like a lot of people. The problem I have is that no guy likes me. So there are no guys to flirt with me or buy me lunch. I always buy my own lunch. It's just that my friend had a lot of guys like her and buy her lunch that's all.

The guys at my school seem pretty shallow and picky.

I had the same issue in school.
Usually, only the stuck up & or preppy
girls date boys from their own school anyway.
If you are so concerned with how you look,
realize, you're still young & when you get out of school you'll blossom. Not only that but you really can't be compairing yourself to other people. If you compair yourself to what you will look like @ age 50, you'll feel like a beauty queen. Look @ pix of your older female relatives when they were younger. They probably thought the same things. What a waste when they had all that beauty! Beauty fades. Our bodies will parish but our hearts, spirit & souls will never parish. I suggest you be a little less concerned with your out-ward apperance & work on improving your self esteem. Who you are isnt what you look like. Search your heart.
What areas are you weak in? (Other than confidence, you're already awear of that one) Work on improving these areas & you'll live a happier, healthier life on earth. Work on your relationship with Jesus & you'll live a blessed life forever.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but more importantly beauty is a state of mind.
When you learn to be happy about yourself, if you strive to be good and decent and honest and caring then those positive qualities will shine through and you will be perceived as beautiful because you will be beautiful.
Beauty starts on the inside and shows through. The most effective and immediate way to become beautiful, or to be more precise to show that hidden beauty which you already have, is to be happy and show it with a beautiful smile. When a person who is a little down perks up and smiles it is like seeing a light turn on.
When your light turns on which I am sure it will, you will not only be beautiful but you will give a little happiness to all who see your new found beautiful smile. It will come, maybe not soon depending on how far down you are but it will come if you strive for it.
Good luck beautiful.

take the time to a look around yourself, far around yourself.
think about the people you know, and you think they're loved, because they feel loved.
now, create a sort of "poll" to see, what others have to say about those loved one, regarding beauty.
you'll see there no relation between both issues.
take a really crap tv show :), or the biography of any of the women or men you think are absolutely pretty, because the entire world say so. Can they warranty that love, even if they could hold thier beaty for ever?
you see?

Somebody else deciding about your being joyous ?
Are they going to decide about the purpose of your life ?
Is there nothing else in life that matters more?
And imagine, the beautiful world around, how they(all beings, and plant world, etc) would feel if they know that you have neglected looking at them, being concerned about just yourself !
Once you start appreciating the beauty of creation around, really there would be no time to think about yourself (being pretty etc), and a person who sincerely appreciates the beauty around looks most beautiful of all !

Don't take too much stock in what people tell you. Be a good person, do good things. If it's a guy that you are looking for the real ones will come out and like you for the person that you really are.

If the guys there are shallow and picky what the heck do you want to go out with them for and who cares what they think. When I was in school I NEVER went out with guys from my school, too much gossip, chill out, be cool, you are still way young

I sure would not worry about it. Just be yourself and be who you are, not what anybody else wants. If they don't buy your lunch or no one is flirting. Hey, you just might be blessed. obviously they don't know a pretty girl when they see one. So, hang in there. OK. So, until someone makes a move, just have fun.Thanks, God Bless.

I think it's time for you to change your focus. What are you good at? What do you like to do? How can you be kind to someone else? Good luck.
