At school I'm not classified as one of the pretty girls.
* I have acne, but I'm on pills and they help, it's clearing up now.
* I wear glasses... but not huge ones.
I always smile, I always say hi. I'm liked, I have tons of friends and I'm curvy not fat or slim. I don't weat the short school skirts because A) my mom's a teacher and B) I'd prefer not to have detention.
So what's making me ugly? Making me just the same old person I am?
Why can't for just once, somebody say: Wow ***** looks pretty today.
Why can't I just make one head turn?
HELP!

Don't worry what other people say about u the same thing happen when I was at schoo I was not one of the famous girl at school.I use to hate the ugly guys at school and I tease them calling them funny names.Reasonly I saw one of them at a social last month and I was so shock "hello" like my tongue hanging out what a babe he turned out.He owned a nice car and get got a nice job.Well at school I use to like this guy but he never look at me or say hi, he ignore me and I use to dress to impress.The funny thing is all the ugly one's at school turns out handsome and all the cute one's turns out ugly.Just be yourself and someday everyone will stop and look how pretty you're.

Super S, hang in there. Shorts skirts don't always make the guys turn there heads or always make the girl. It's more important that you feel good about YOU, not making them happy or trying to compete against girls who are considered pretty. The acne will pass, be patient. Take care yourself, get your hair done if you want, maybe some makeup after the acne clears up a bit, but remember do it first and foremost for yourself, and if someone else likes it........great. If not.........too bad. I've been around this big ol' world and I've seen what many men consider to be "plain Janes" develop into drop dead gorgeous women. I know because I married one.

I always felt upset from people caring that much with what others think about them, on the other hand i do not underestimate the effect of the physical image on your self esteem, but by all means YOU ARE WHAT YOU WANT TO BE.
I know that did not answer your question, so i am telling you, prettiness in my opinion is something closely related with your personal attitude, i ve had some experience with what we call PRETTY girls in the classic term, i found most of them boring, arrogant, and i think many of the girls who were considered nice and attractive were average when it comes to faces.
Other things that the make up you wear, the colors of clothing, and those other things i absolutely know NOTHING about.
Start by believing in yourself, the results will be outstanding.

School is cruel, I'm not sure why but it just is. I want to tell you to just be yourself and that .....blah blah blah. I know that's not what you want to hear. So here I go. You are probably just fading into the background. There's probably nothing about you that stands out from the crowd. You need something that will make you different than the average girl. Maybe a new hairstyle, new hair color, highlights, accessorize your clothing, some thing eye catching. And no, you do not need to wear short skirts to get attention. You just need something different, something signature.

prettiness is subjective, so you'd have to post a pic if you want people to tell you why you can or cannot make heads turn. That being said, you're probably not ugly... all through high school i only thought 2 girls were truly beautiful, the rest I completely didn't really notice (based on beauty) so yeah people can be really picky but dont worry youll run into some guys who are into you im sure, probably way more than you think right now.

when i was in school i was always worring about what people thought of me.i wish i would have spent more time worrying about anything else now.while i think that looks are important,its only skin deep.good for you for taking control of acne.and glasses,girl glasses can be hot!you seem nice the way you describe yourself.if you are wanting to improve on your looks,pick someone who you adore.not some paris hilton type.but someone who is beautiful and (not really steal her style)maybe take some cues from her.but really just be yourself and keep smiling and kep being nice to everyone you meet.people will see that you are beautiful inside and out..and that will get you futher in life than if you are just a nice pair of legs with no personality.

You are in high school, the guys will notice even if the cliques dont...if you are liked and happy then I think you will be far better off when you are surrounded by mature people later in life that can see past all the b.s. that high school brings. You sound like a sweetie so dont try to hard.

do you mind showing me your picture privately? i think i can help you.i understand how you feel, i had the
same problem as you when i was in secondary one, ppl in my class were always glossiping about how ugly i was. i was feeling very sad and went home after sch everyday.it went on for almost a year. during the end of the year holiday i went for a shopping spree and got a new haircut that fit me.
when i went back to school the next year. everyone said that i changed alot and i was the prettiest in my whole class.
just change yourself. read some magazine that talks about fashion , face, hair. you will gain alot of information on it.
good luck
