Okay well i am 15 and moved from a fancy Paris street to a raunchy New York jungle and I completely miss home! I am 5 foot 6 inches and have green eyes and brownish red hair. I am very polite and civilized. Everyone here seems dirty and pierced all over. No one will talk to me and it is so hard on me coming from all my friends in Paris to America. Can anyone assure me that I am not an ugly beast and that I may be somewhat noraml or pretty or something? Any assurance appreiciated! Thanks a bundle everyone!

Maybe you should just chill and try to meet some new friends. I've been to NYC and to Paris. Plenty of grungy areas in Paris...if we're honest about it.
I think this is more about being in a new place where you don't know anyone. Relax! Join some new clubs, activities that will give you a chance to meet people with similar interests.

Emmaline,
Of course you are pretty, of course they just do not want to admit that.
Find some other friend.
Join a sports-club, scouting or go out for classical or ballroom dance classes or so.
As long as it takes you from the current bunch of people around you, preferably to people who do something.
You will see that there are a lot of great people in NY too, it does just take effort to find them.

The reason that no on talks to you may be that you sound very conceited. You can be the most beautiful person on the outside, if you act like you're better than everyone else, no one will like you. Try to act like you're not better than everyone else around you, and you'll be making friends in no time at all.

How can you say "Everyone here seems dirty and pierced all over" ? ... guess you did not go to the right places ... And yes, I also moved from Europe here and had no problem in finding nice and normal people.
