Do you think it's better to lie and say that their pretty?
Becuase in the end the more confident you make them feel the happier theyll feel which in turn will shine through their bad looks.
Do you think its better to lie or tell the truth about their looks?

it is bad to tell people they r ugly it will just make them feel really low and not care. If you say oh you look great today it will make them want to try and look there best.
or maybe instead of say "oh your really ugly" maybe you could just try suggesting things like make up and stuff which will make them look prettier but same something like "oh i tried this really good lipstick the other day it would look great on you" or " maybe you should wear you hair like this it looks fab"
That's what i do.

It just depends on WHEN you are telling them. In most cases, I've noticed they deal with it more when their not with friends, or a pack of people, or a public place for that matter. Now if you say it in a public place, and someone hears you, most likely you'll have like four or five people wanting to jump you. I usually don't use that word, but honestly, if they have an ugly personality on top of bein ugly, then I bust out with it. Having both is just not good character. Another word I hate is stupid. LOL

TRUTH DOES NOT JUSTIFY SAYING THE TRUTH! Here's why...1.) It's not productive. Nothing good comes out of telling someone they're ugly. If they are ugly, they probably know it. If they don't, they're just lying to themselves and will never believe you anyway. It'll just piss them off. 2.)If you're gonna dish out the truth, people will dish the truth back at you. We all have undesirable attributes. They cannot be avoided. Be prepared for a hostile audience wherever you go. People usually know what is bad about themselves. You saying them...doesn't help a thing. 3.)We are all made in God's image. If you're making fun of someone, you're making fun of God's creation, and that's serious business.

Ugly is a mere perception, what is ugly to you may be beautiful to someone else... so if they are beautiful on the inside (where it counts) then the package hosting this beautiful soul is beautiful too...no matter how you perceive or judge the shape of the skin...
If they are really ugly and you don't like them cos the ugliness shines from within then you wouldn't be in a position to answer that question anyway cos you wouldn't be talkin to them!

You can tell them the truth without lying. You can show them their good points and how to bring them out. Everybody has beauty in them somewhere. You might tell them to use make-up to bring out the beauty in their eyes, cheekbones & lips. A little make-up does wonders. By the way, I saw where some of them called you ugly. Well, you are not. You are a very pretty girl so don't listen to them or let them get you down.

Always tell the truth...but remember, it's all subjective and relative... Just because your opinion / perception of someone is that they're "ugly" doesn't mean everyone will see it the same way...
Maybe you should ask for the truth about how others on the board perceive you...do you want the answers candy-coated, or do you want brutal honesty?
; ) ---still, I prefer the truth...if there is such a thing

Your right about confidence shining through. I've never had an ugly person ask me if they are pretty...I doubt it happens very often. It's better to point out their good qualities and let them bask in the truth of that.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. First off you would only be giving your opinion of what they look like, not everybody else's and you would probably lose a friend by saying things that are not important in a friendship. I mean as a friend if you notice they have B.O. or death breath, maybe that would be cool to give them a heads up but as far as looks, hell that ain't important, we are all destined to look like hound dogs eventually, it's just that some of us are just getting a headstart! lol, Good Luck and be kind.

I'd just say beauty is skin deep, ugly is to the bone, when beauty fades away (and it will) ugly holds it's own. Why say anything, compliment on something that does look nice, a smile, hair style, their clothing. Options always options.

If you tell an ugly person the truth, about her looks, than the one who will feel ugly would be you, because what can you acomplish by saying the truth? Only making her feel unworthy than she is feeling. telling her she looks pretty, would as you say make her shine and will lift her spirits.
