Why do you feel so ugly whilst all the other girls are so pretty?

Answer 1

This is a somewhat difficult question, since we, of course, do not actually know what you look like. However, I can still tell you that people often have trouble seeing themselves objectively, and society in general subjects us to constant advertisements designed to make us feel insecure about our appearance, so that we will spend more money on beauty products. Whatever you may look like, you are a beautiful person if you are compassionate toward other people.

It can also depend on your age. Preteen and teen years can be especially rough on anyone's self esteem. Your peers expect you to fit into very tight sets of style and norms. You are going through a lot of changes physically, mentally, and emotionally while trying to keep up with grades, listen to the right music, read the right books, keep your parents happy, worry about dating, and everything else you have going on in your life. Keep in mind that whatever you are going through, you are usually your own worst critic. You are probably seeing yourself as so much worse than other people are seeing you. Sometimes people may say some awful things, but chances are, they are having the same doubts about themselves that you are. It is common for people to make fun of you to feel better about themselves. It isn't right, but it is how some people do (even some adults). The ones that are being the most cruel are usually the ones that are privately the most miserable. It is easy for an outsider to say, but it almost always gets better. Hang in there. Realize that you are in all likelihood nowhere near ugly, and to someone somewhere, you are gorgeous. For now, just focus on being the person you want to be. You have to find happiness somewhere besides what you look like, no matter how beautiful are.
