This is normal teenage worrying. But you seem to imply that only rich people or handsome people or people with genius have a meaning to their life. Do your neighbors fit into your category; do your parents fit. Look around you on the street, does everyone you see fit into your category.

I will bet your answer is "no" but I would bet that each and every one of them have faced worries like yours and have have gone on to solve their problems and become who they are.

If you feel your worrying is causing you to lead a dysfunctional life (maybe not eating, maybe not going out, maybe withdrawing from family and friends), then I would talk about your worrying to your parents or your school counselor or nurse, or your pastor (if you have one).

First of all your a teen and that portion in anyone's life seems to be the hardest. I dropped out of school when I was 16 started college when I was 17 and now I am a nurse! I never dated a guy until I was 18 now I am living with a wonderful man for close to two years and we plan on having a family and getting married some day. The teen years are awkward and when I went to college it was the best thing I did I met so many new people and have friends that I still keep in touch with. No one is stupid either everyone has a different way of learning and unfortunatly high schools don't teach in all the different ways. I would talk to your parents about this and also maybe see a therapist which could be helpful in figuring out if you may be a depressed individual which there are medications that will help greatly and a lot of people take anti depressants now a days and its nothing to be ashamed of. It will all work out when you grow out of your awkward teenage years and I would if I were you just see a therapist to see if there is something more going on.

A person's worth is not determined by how they look, how much money they have, or by how smart they are. You are an important part of society. You have gifts and talents that belong only to you. Use the abilities you have, even if it means taking classes. Use your talents to help others.

Don't think so much about yourself, but concentrate on helping others and being a good friend. Be trustworthy and dependable. Someone will take note of this and know that you are the kind of person they want for a friend.

As far as having a girlfriend it will come with time. Don't settle for less than the best even if it means waiting. Don't get a girlfriend just for the sake of having one. Look for a real and genuine relationship.

There's nothing wrong with being average. However, you are the only YOU. Don't be afraid of being different.

Life is worth living, and there is a point to it. One of them is enjoying the happiness and pleasures of life itself; but with joy also comes sadness, and everyone has their ups and downs. The way you feel now is normal, and it is only a temporary slope.

During this time in your life, it is important to realize that you should not get caught up in the trivial matters in life, such as money, fame, or power. If one spends their life pursuing such earthly possessions, then in the process they will miss the happiness and joy that was in front of them all along. You may not be the cutest, or the richest, or the brainiest, but that does not matter. Try and find peace within yourself, accept yourself, and become content with yourself. Through this, true happiness will eventually be found.

Best of luck,

Tatsu.

You should not worry about that. There has got to be someone out there who can accept you for who you really are. You are already destined to someone even before you were born.

Think positive all the time. How can other people like you if you yourself don't even appreciate with what you have. Bear in mind that each one of us is unique, and therefore every single one of us is special...So YOU ARE SPECIAL TOO....

Be courageous and face all the battles that will come into your life. Remember that there is no insurmountable problem if you'll just believe in yourself.

I hope my advice has helped you.

All the best......

You are having feelings and asking questions that everyone does in their life sometimes. Yes, there is a reason for life. Yes you can contribute and gain from living. You might take some time to evaluate yourself and try to find what your reason is. Do you want to be rich? You can be, you simply have to set that goal for yourself and apply all your energies into learning how to do that, there are many roads to wealth. Do you want to be famous, for philanthropy, for discoveries, for whatever, you can do that too, it simply means applying yourself to a goal that appeals to you. I believe that our purpose for being on this planet is to learn all that we can from living, be it about other people or about ourselves. Learn about the planet, learn about the stars, learn about whatever, that is your purpose for being here. You were born with a brain that has a huge capacity for learning, and for passing that learning on to later generations. What you are here to learn, what you are here to teach to others is for you to discover.
When you look at all the potential experiences out there that you have yet to experience, being afraid is normal. But you can take comfort in the fact that you are not alone, that every single human being, without exception, is going thru pretty much the same things you are. Physical appearance doesn't mean all that much, even to movie stars, alot of them are not what I would call beautiful, but their skill at acting makes them famous, and it is what they love to do. Many have such skill at their craft that they actually make a difference in people's lives that watch them. Having a great deal of money, doesn't mean all that much, when you have a passion for something you pursue it, take for example Mother Theresa, Ghandhi, Buddha, all well known people, none of them wealthy.
Finding a girlfriend, it will happen, you may even be blessed to find a life partner, but that doesn't mean that much either, we all live alone inside our skulls.
Yes, there is much to experience, much to learn, so many things to do with our lives, I think it is very much worth living, it is why we are here.

Only Jesus can fullfill that purpose you're looking for in life. Only Jesus can fullfill that empty void we all feel or have felt in our soul. He Loves you very much. He has a purpose for you.
Ask Him into your heart earnestly. You will never regret it.

John 3:16-17
16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Matt 7:7
7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

Here is a Love letter from Almighty God to you. (Very encouraging)

life value doesnt mean how cute, popular, smart, or rich you are, its what you do to try and improve your life, and anyone else's life. right now you may think that you may not have a meaning for your life but you do not know whats in the future for you. for all you know you might cure cancer or aids, even though you are not the smartest person you still might do it. trust me your life has meaning just be positive.

everyone of us is unique in our own special way. do not look or aspire for something or someone that others have. evrything happens for a reason. i suggest that you don't give up on life, use ur heart and mind, determine the things that suit you best, things that you could excel on even ur unwealthy, etc.
