I so wish i was pretty?

Question

I HATE the wayy i look right now! =[ It's getting me down, how can i persuade myself that we're beautiful on the inside and not on the out?

Answer 1

you are beautiful, keep telling yourself this, boost your self confidence, im sure you are pretty as much on the outside as you are on the inside. x

Answer 2

Sometimes being 'pretty' isn't cracked up to what it's meant to be. I honestly don't mean to sound big headed, but people say that I'm pretty and all this, but trust me, I HATE the way I look too. People only talk to you because of your looks, I've never had a boyfriend because apparently it's 'too intimidating' (could that BE a bigger lie?) people just don't get it's not about looks at all, it's about personality and I bet we'd get on like a house on fire!!

=D

Answer 3

Do you have a digital camera? If so, take lots of pictures, from different angles, different outfits, different backgrounds, etc. A lot of people take pictures for their "profile pics" and I am positive almost all of them feel more confident after taking nice pictures.

Also, if you treat yourself well, I think that might boost your esteem as well. You deserve it! New clothes, new bedsheets, breakfast in bed, anything.

But anyway, you have to want to believe it in order to actually think beauty is within. And it's true, too. Think of it this way, a beautiful girl may have the ugliest personality. Where is she then? Nobody wants to deal with her crap.

watch this - anyone can be beautiful if they have a team of make up artists, stylists, hairdressers and computer whizz's at their beck and call

truth is most of us don't but we get by on our own - a little bronzer and mascara go a long way, keep it natural because you are probably very beautiful by yourself, you just don't know it. You'll grow into yourself and become more confident, i hate to use a cliche but you have plenty of time to blossom. Stick a mantra or inspiration on your mirror and say it OUT LOUD to yourself when you see it or when you feel down.

something like "I am a confident, happy and beautiful girl and I respect myself"

Answer 5

Try not to be so hard on yourself! You re no doubt a very pretty girl and just need to work on your confidence and self esteem.

Don't compare yourself to all the women you see in the media...they have all been pulled, spackled, airbrushed and made up to look better than they really are.

Answer 6

All teenagers go through this sweetheart. You ARE beautiful, everyone is in their own way. Try to think positively about yourself, pick out one feature you think is really good, like your eyes perhaps, focus on them until you are completely happy, then pick out another feature to work on. This is a natural phase, don't worry, you'll get through it. You're a little beauty!

Answer 7

Being pretty can be over rated. See if you can get a copy of the old Janis Ian song "at 17". It has a lot of wisdom.

Answer 8

Just know that everyone has imperfections, and that is what makes them pretty. Everyone has a unique look that makes them beautiful and different from everyone else. I really hope that you take my advice, and just know that you are pretty in you own way =)

Answer 9

Average looking girls are great and a lot of them are very attractive without even knowing it. Girls who THINK they are pretty and have an attitude are a real pain real quick.

Answer 10

i totally know how you feel.
Just think of how bitchy some pretty girls are (mainly because they're gorgeous...but my god don't they know it!!) and how many friends average-looking people have, because they are not that vain and everything, and how much people like them! I'm sure that you're an awesome person and look awesome too!! xx
