Listen, if you are afraid that you aren't pretty, you need to question your influences. Each person who has fears about being beautiful tend to have a deep obsession about it because they are constantly told that they are. Dont ever let beauty become a natural requirement for you! Just know that you are beautiful and focus on being liked because of who you are as a whole.

Knowing three truths may help you be more confident
1. Most of the guys are just as shy as you are when it comes to relationships, and possibly more so. In other words, they may be more afraid to talk to you than you are afraid of approaching them.
2. The ones who seem "loud" and "confident" are often that way to cover up their insecurities. You can tell if their loudness goes not much further than "hey baby" or something juvenile like that.
3. Everyone messes up and gives dumb answers and laughed at and get rejected some times. That is life. It can be painful, but you have to deal with it. In fact, you may not be "failing" fast enough. You need to practice how to fail and how to get rejected now so that you can better handle the real pressures of life.
Good luck!

Each person is different. I am sure you have seen others who are very confident and wonder how do they do it! If you are lacking some confidence, it will just take time and life experiences to make you feel more confident. It sounds like you are in highschool and therefore still young. By life experiences I mean getting a job after you complete your education and on this job you do a fantastic job which leads to one promotion after another. This type of reassurance just through one part of your life will help build your confidence because you are recognized by your peers and bosses etc. Give yourself time and keep smiling.

Although it is not what you want to hear, try to be yourself.
I think the best way to gain confidence is to do things that you enjoy, or are good at.
If you participate in things you like, you will meet people with similiar interests.
If you are talking about things you like to other people, you will probably be confident.

Find something you care about and use that to build your esteem dont use your looks to build your confidence. Looks fade and so will your confidence. If you find something that makes you strong use that and guys will pick up on that and want to be around you.

try being more independent. doing little things like paying bills, getting the groceries or even little home improvement projects do the trick. After you do them you can tell yourself, "I did it". You can also get shot down by somebody, after wards you'll realize that things aren't as bad as they seem, its the anticipation that will get you.
