Yikes, sounds like you are pretty hard on yourself. You will feel better when you stop thinking nasty things about yourself. The way you look is not the only thing that defines you, start concentrating on the positive things about yourself: are you a good artist, a good friend, a good daughter, sister, fun, caring, unique, sweet?? Focus on the positive things about yourself and fix the physical things that you are able in order to feel a bit better. More then anything remember kids can be mean sometimes, but just because they say something to you does not make it a true statement so don't listen to them!

It makes me sad that you think this way about yourself. Everyone else sees you how you see yourself. Lets not focus on the outward appearance. Are you a good person? Do you have friends who care about you? Do you have a good relationship with your family?
Guys around your age can be dumb and superficial. They tend to only focus on outward appearance and have a hard time seeing what a great person you are.
I'm going to tell you a little secret. I didn't have my first boyfriend until I was seventeen. I didn't have my first kiss until then too. I've always thought I was decent looking (not gorgous by any means) and I was really athletic, so I didn't understand either why no guy wanted to date me. There tons of girls that go through the same thing you are. These are just the awkward teenage years dear. They'll pass and you'll have your time to date and have fun with some really awesome guys, and they'll be the guys who will value you and treat you the way you should be treated.
These should be the fun times in your life. Don't worry about the boys, focus on the things I mentioned above. Try and build some really good friendships and try to be an all around good person.
Just so you know, turns out I'm getting married next summer to the most attractive and caring man I have ever met. See, good things do come along eventually, you just have to be patient.
Good luck in your future!

First of all sweetie, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If I were you I would not worry about what other people say because if you were a supermodel they would still have something negative to say. I would ask my mom to buy me some contacts and that would take care of the glasses issue. Next try proactive for your pimples I have a cousin your age going through pubity and the proactive worked really well and his acne was pretty bad. Now as for your boobs... They will grow with time you cant rush life. Maybe you should go to a new salon if the one you are going to isnt helping out. Oh yeah makeup will NOT help the pimples...I wish you the best of luck and life is too short to worry about what everyone else has to say.

Wow, you need to get some self-esteem, girl! Ok, the ugly ducklin stage happens to almost every teenage girl who's not the richy-rich, homecoming-queen type who's gifted with being blond and 110 pounds soaking wet with the world's most perfect body. But you have to snap out of it and stop beating yourself down.
I don't know why you think you don't have a nice body. I don't know what you look like. If you're overweight or something, that can change. Just start walking or running and watching what you eat.
As for the not having much in the chest-department, you're only 13. That will change. Lots of 13 year olds are not fully, or even partially developed in that area yet.
As for the pimples, that's a teenager thing, too. Look around you- I bet almost every kid in your school has pimples. And what's so bad about glasses? I know lots of pretty girls who have glasses.
You just need to stand up straight and tall, smile, and be proud of who you are. Stand up for yourself and ignore those stupid boys who tease you. They're only doing it to get a rise out of you. If you ignore them, it won't be any fun for them anymore and they'll get bored and go find something else to entertain themselves; bullies and teasers have very short attention spands. And if they don't lay off, just tell them to go to h*ll and don't let them see that they're getting to you. Don't run away. If you do, that means they win. Don't let those jerks win, you're better than them.
Things will get better, trust me. Being a teenage girl is hard. I know, I'm 15! I've been there, I'm still there. But you will be fine. Just hang in there.

You need to calm down a bit....If you are only 13 there is plenty of time for your looks to change and they will. Ever heard of the ugly duckling syndrome? Well it's true, you too can be a beautiful swan but you need to stop worrying so much right now. Try more positive thinking about the good qualities you have ( I'm sure you have several) that do not include your looks. If you can see others as beautiful, then look for the beauty that you have as well and stop concentrating on what you do not like. Things will change, trust me on this.

Sweety , you're not ugly.
I have days like this sometimes - doesn't everybody but you just need to feel good about yourself and that will definately reflect in how people see you .
To make yourself feel better, try a style that will compliment your face or a style that you really think is nice . That will really boost your confidence.
The pimples won't last forever and if you buy a good facial scrub they will go in a couple of weeks - be patient.
And get a really pretty pair of glasses - thin rectangle ones are really cute .
Eating healthily and regular exercise will make you feel great ,too.
You need to find some guys that will really appreciate you - the guys that make fun of you are really shallow!
There's noone that can't be beautiful - and i bet your personality is great.
Hope you feel better soon.

You sound like you need to work on your body image issues. Confidence is probably the most attractive thing about any person (in my own opinion). Looks only go so far.
Work on your self confidence and everything else will fall into place. I used to be like you in the teen angst years, but I got to the point where I said screw it. I am not Vogue worthy, there is "more of me to love", but I know I am an intelligent and compassionate person. Confidence got me an education, an awesome husband, a successful career, and a nice home to raise my son in. The "pretty" girls got abortions, bad reputations, and are divorced in their early 20's with kids in tow scraping by living at the trailer park in my old hometown. That's a hard road to take for anyone...
Don't worry about only having one bf. When you find the person you want to spend the rest of your life with, you won't have the baggage of 100 failed relationships to deal with. Your significant other will be your special someone, and not that special number 101.
Don't be so hard on yourself!

First of all go see your doc to get the pimples treated with antibiotics and then go to your eye doc and see about contacts or some cute glasses. Next keep repeating that you are not ugly as you are beautiful. We are all beautiful. You are only 13 so you should not be worried so much about boyfriends yet. My daughter is 16 has no boyfriend so stop worrying about boyfriends so much and concentrate on having fun with your life right now. Go to the movies with friends or go skating or hang out at the mall. Join some clubs or groups at school. Do you have a youth center? Get involved in that. What about church activities. How about volunteering at the hospital or nursing home? Get a life and then you will be much happier as you will see that you are a wonderful and really beautiful person. Learn to love yourself for WHO you are not for what clothes you wear or how you look. Beauty is something that comes from the inside before you can be beautiful on the outside.

Dear im ugly, no you are not. I want you to know that most 13 year olds feel just like you. They all watch the same foolish tv shows that tell them they don't meet the standard. They lie and don't tell you the truth. You are beautiful because you are a girl made in Gods image. You are beautiful because He loves you and gave you the gift of life. You are beautiful because you are growing and changing each day. You are beautiful because all Gods plans and purposes will be realized as you come to Him through Jesus Christ. Just call on Him and find real Bible believing Christians who will help you know how beautiful you already are.

You are not UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!! You will find a boyfriend. You are still young, you have many years ahead of you to worry about boys. Every girl is pretty in her own way. The only reason people are making fun of you are because they are jealous. They wish they could look like you. Don't let them get the best of you when they make fun of you. Just smile and go on your way. When you return meanness with kindness, they won't know how to act and they will stop making fun of you. Cheer up, look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are pretty and that they are just jealous.
