i think i'm not pretty enough, coz i'm dark,i got dark eye-bags(permanently), thick lips, pimples, thin hair, a high forehead and long face. overall, my features are not nice. so i'm pretty low on self-confidence. i also tend to think in the negative way, more pessimistic i'll say. is there any way to change to being more confident and optimistic?

Hi, some things you can't change, and others you can. Start by getting your skin cleared of pimples. These are caused by plugged oil glands that become home to bacteria. See a Dermatologist if you can afford it, otherwise try some over the counter medicated first aid ointments at bed time. Keep your skin very clean, cut back on all greasy or oily foods, and try to get a few minutes of sunshine every day. Always stand tall and as your skin clears you will start to feel more confident. Try to learn a new skill and keep current on news, so you will have a topic for conversation. Hope this helps in some small way. Best wishes

if you are worried about your appearance then there are things you can do to make yourself more attractive. first of all thick lips are very sexy. i do not know why you would not like your lips. a high forehead is also a sign of beauty. to clear your skin make sure you wash and moisturize it twice a day with oil free products. also consider changing your diet by eating more fruits and vegetables instead of processed salty, fatty, and sugary foods that cause acne. drink LOTS of water because water flushes out your system including your pores to clear skin. to find out the ammount of water your body needs daily to stay healthy multiply your body weight (lbs) X 0.55 and divide by 8. this will give you the number of 8 ounce glasses that you should be drinking of water per day. water is essential to healthy hydrated clear skin and also helps eliminate under eye bags and dark circles. doing these things will make you feel better as well as look better. as far as the thin hair goes, try hair extensions or maybe a clip on hair piece. if you do not like the idea of fake hair then maybe a sexy short cropped haircut could be your answer. when you are more confident in your appearance i think your self esteem will rise as well.

Let me tell you something self-esteem has nothing to do with physical appearance. There are some ugly people that think that they are the s***t and there are some beauty queens that think that they'll never look good enough.Start by loving yourself instead of focusing on negative things underline the positive things, features that you like about yourself. Stand straight, keep your head up, be confident and love yourself and that will show to other people. Find something that you like and try to excel in it. Nobody cares that Einstein wasn't the most good looking guy out there but how smart he was made him one appealing fellow

You should do things that make you feel good about yourself. Take a course in something interesting, work on getting a degree so that you are better qualified for the workforce, and more than anything, BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF. You don't need to please the world, you need to find peace within yourself, and the best way to do that is to do the things that make you feel best. Sometimes it's the little things like a manicure, or a jog on the beach, that can motivate you. You need to ask yourself what you like to do, and find the outlet to do it. Focus on the traits that make you a good person. Looks change with age, but a good character outlasts them. This is what you will be remembered for.

You are made of the image of God. God made you wonderfully and fearfully made. You should concentrate on your character because thats the one thing that will out shine your appearance. you can be the prettiest girl in the world and have the worst attitude ever. And everybody knows that your attitude dampens a persons outer appearance also. So, I think you should ask God for Guidance and get some inspiration from the bible and get some boost in your spiritual life. Trust me it really really works. Always think positive too and be grateful that you still have feet to walk, a voice to talk, ears to hear and just be grateful that you still have life on this earth because people always take there lives for granted. Just be thankful for what you have! Hey, your not dead yet. Live your life to the fullest because it could be gone tomorrow.
