I know i'm ugly, but i also think i'm beautiful

I know this probably doesn't make sense, but I know I'm conventionally 'ugly'. Trust me, I've been told - I've got a big nose and jaw. But at the same time I think I can be pretty ... I think it's because I know myself; I know the personality behind the face I see, and that changes my perception. Basically if I'm amongst other girls or in the dating world or whatever I've got no chance because I'm the ugliest one there. But maybe if someone knew me personally, their perception would change too. And I'm not just saying this, I genuinely believe beauty's on the inside with others as well.

Is It Normal?

  • Stop with the comparisons, you're your own person, be confident in what you have to offer.

  • This reminds me of a friend I had in highschool. Not many found her that attractive, but since she was my friend and I knew her personality, which was great, I thought she was pretty. I still think she is.

  • I know just what you mean. The people I find most attractive are ones who aren't cookie cutter beauties, like Tilda Swinton. But the thing that makes her gorgeous to me is that she's really intelligent and well-spoken. If she was dumb or mean spirited, I'd probably start to pick on all her features and see them as flaws.

    There's a part on that show The Office that really sums it up lol, Michael is mad at Jim and he goes: "When I'm mad at you, I don't see YOU anymore, all I can see is how big and gross the pores on your nose are."

  • Do not compare yourself to others. If you do so, you are insulting yourself.

  • Ugly is just a perception of things.

  • Maybe you are one of those people who start off bad looking and then you just blossom like a caterpillar and turn into a construction vehicle...and help to build houses for people to have sex in?

  • You may not look beautiful like a magazine super-model, but that's what makes you greater than all of them. Congratulations on not being another generic porn-clone! :D

    Stay unique, we need more of you.

  • Good looks can only take you so far. And what you're saying is true, a great personality shines through.

  • Your God's creature. Your beautiful in his eyes because he makes no mistakes.
    Besides....the friends I have who may not be the first choice for a modeling career are the ones I most want to hang with and who are the ones I can trust the most.

  • Out of curiosity, when you meet someone, are you confident cause you think you have a great personality, or nervous cause you think you are not conventionally pretty?

    • I'm socially anxious, I can't even tell who I am beneath it anymore :P I don't think it's my looks that make me nervous.

      • Sounds like you may have an idea what makes you nervous instead. What is it?! I must know! Unless that is just a mysteriously worded last sentence...

        • Looking and feeling stupid, being wrong, being judged.
