I think about how looks don't really even matter if you're not even enjoying life, and feeling stuck and depressed all the time. Being beautiful is nice, but would it be worth it for suffering, maybe a few glimpses of hope and cheer now and then, but to me, it's just not appealing. I ask this questoin because it's on my mind alot, people say i'm attractive, i view myself as a fairly beautiful person (flawed in places) nonetheless i don't get much out of life. I feel people who are less on the scale of attractiveness, at least with whom i've been around seem to be generally content and getting more out of life. I would much rather be an ugly (by societies standards) and happy person. I just feel inner beauty is so much more important. And even if you're beautiful, eventually looks fade, right? What would you prefer.

Since this is a preference question...I would choose to be ugly and happy! LOL HOWEVER..... in my opinion... you can fit society's idea of beauty and be splendidly happy at the same time! Happiness depends on action. It's not something that just happens by chance. One has to work for goals, achieve them and enjoy them! If you feel that others have it better than you then it's up to you to improve! Do something nice for somebody every day that nobody knows you do. That's a great start for achieving happy! Good luck!

Happy Ugly, because in the end I would have inner peace while if i am miserable and depressed, it really doesn't matter how great I look, i may not recognize it or really even know it. And even if I knew I looked great I would get no pleasure out of the attention or with the fact that I look good.

I'd rather have a fun, full life and be ugly then a snobby "beautiful" person who no one can stand to be around. But most people who think that they are ugly are really just being too critical of themselves. If people say you're attractive, then take another look at yourself. You probably are.

Define ugly. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and a happy person is generally a beautiful one.

i have never described a person as ugly....we are all beautiful....being called ugly and being happy is far better than being called beautiful and being unhappy....do you think if someone called you ugly...you would be happy? being happy is up to you......it is not up to your looks......every morning you wake up YOU have to decide if you're gonna be happy or not....think possitive......peace be with you
