First of all people that call you names are just people that don't have confidence themselves and the only way they feel good is by calling other people names and picking at you the things they dont like about themselves...don't be sad sweety...I used to feel the same way...I learned to ignore them and show them that it didnt bother me what they said...It made them so pissed becuz u see if you let them see that it hurts you, then they will continue to name call u...show that your confident and keep your head up high...when you stop worrying about what people think about u, thats when u will truely be happy...everyone is beautiful in their own way...I don't think anyone is ugly, they are just different...so don't pay mind and keep smiling...never let anyone put you down, because you are the best !Not everyone is gonna like you and not everyone is gonna accept you...just love yourself the way you are and others will learn to do the same...trust me

People say and do things I feel because they are not happy with something with themselves. If they are hurting you, physically, emotionally anything, you need to stand up. You sound very nice, it seems like you try to see the good in everyone. Too bad not many people do. Just don't let anyone walk all over you. I have a question, Is there a reason some of these people are giving you a hard time? I feel as long as you are happy with who you are, that should be all that matters. Try to ignore what people say. It's hard I know.

The problem is happiness if a fading type of emotion. If u win $10,000 u are happy, when you spend $9,999 of it u are sad again. U get somenew clohtes-you're happy, then the newness runs out for the clothes and you're back tonot beng happy. what we really need is JOY. Joy is eternal no one can give it to you nor can anyone take it away. U gain JOY an dfullment in know ing Jesus as yoru Lord and Savior. In the bible Nehiamiah 8:10 it says, ...for the joy of the LORD is your strength.". And ths is the truth. We try to get satisfaction by so many things: shopping, food, sex, gambling, drinking, lying, etc. but when it;'s all said and done none of those things provides any lasting or helpful benefit tour lives. The Lord wants to help us to live a life in victory and a life that will be pleasing to him. When we lead a pleasing life to God, he will bless us tremedously not just with material things (house, money, etc.) but with the things deep down that we need that no one else knows about. Those quiet secret things in our lives that tear us down and keep us in bondage day to day. I invite u tonight to know the Lord as your personal Savior, I promise u he willnto let you down. If u give your total life and hear to him he will turn your lfe around for the good. Not sayin gu have to be perfect, but be willing and the Lord will help you , i KNOW AND PROMISE HE WILL do it just for you, because he came that YOU may have life and that more abundantly. God accepts you and regaless of what others say you are loved by and accepted by God. Soemtimes we go through things so we woudl be better able to realte to someone else and enocurage them to let them know how we made through our trial. Don't let the immatuiryt of others infest your spirit. You be who God made u to be and he will belss you abundantly. He's waiting on you to take the next step for Joy.. Read the scripture below under SOURCE if you want to know how to do it. U can also email me if u have further questions. Today is youday for hwat it is you have been looking for for so long, don't let it pass by, this is your day for more than happiness, but JOY.

People are afraid. In order to protect themselves they exhibit defensive behavior. This defensive behavior supposedly "protects" them from experiencing the pain they fear. This behavior is not rational. Next time you hear someone making these types of defensive comments, recognize them for what they are. In reality the comments have nothing to do with you but have everything to do with the scared person that made them. Realize these people are afraid and living in pain. It will allow you to look at the situation differently, see it for what it really is, and have different feelings about it. Instead of feeling sad or hurt, you will feel pity for the people exhibiting the patehtic behavior.
Stay strong.

You are absolutely correct! EVERYONE is beautiful in their own way! Society has made it soooo difficult for everyone! Women have to be a size 1 or GOD forbid we r outcasts! Look how many young girls throw up just to be skinny! Guys have to look all GQ like Nick Lachey- its crazy! THEN they wonder why they cant find love! Because they r looking at people from the outside and dont care about the inner person! Just love yourself and dont worry about the idiots around you! I know- it hurts when people act that way- and my heart goes out to u. Just ignore the rudeness of others and the only one u have to please is YOU!

Me and my three friends (All in our late 20's) have formed a team to help out our neighborhood. I wear a Jar Jar Binks costume and am the leader. Then there is the guy who wears the Grimace costume, he is the strong man. Then there is the guy who is a convicted sex offender, he wears a trenchcoat like the matrix. And lastly, their is "The Professional", he wears a cardboard Burgerking crown and a fake muscle suit. We walk around town and knock on random doors. When the person answers, I dance and do a Jar Jar quote, then make a loud screech with an air horn. While the person is reeling from the sound, the sex offender confesses that he is a sex offender (as required by his parole). Then the grimace throws some leaves and dirt into the persons house. And lastly, Muscle King plays 'me so horny' on his boombox and we dance. We have done this to hundreds of houses. Are we some kind of kings? I don't know how?

character is a good thing. you'd be surprised, over the course of our short lives, how many people we'll fall for who don't have good character. you may not be that exciting to others now, which is something that you can work on of course, but the same people who are dissing you now will come back years later because of that great character of yours. I've seen it for myself, it'll happen a lot sooner than you think!

You have to understand that people only put you down because they feel inadequate with themselves. Beauty is skin deep, but ugly is to the bone. surround yourself with family and the ones that make you feel good about yourself. I know it's hard, but keep strong.

Ignore them, like you are. If it still goes on, call them names back! If you are nto responding and showing you are hurt, they will think you are a wimp and they can call you names, they'll keep calling you hurtful things! Also, talk to your teacher, principle, or parnts. Parents always come up with solutions to help you.
