Is it normal that beautiful people make me feel extremely dejected

I am a female. I would consider myself to be not that attractive by normal standards and it seems that everyone else is alot more confident and driven compared to me. It doesn't help that I suffer from really low self esteem which is never evident from my looks (although I dress feminine)

I think I am a sufferer in loving beautiful people, especially men (because I understand them more than women) and it really makes me sad when I realise that sometimes I can seem abit creepy in the way I admire them. I guess some people would call another version of this "fan girling" only that for myself, I usually am aware that I never might be in their lives. This usually leads me to isolation and admiring from afar instead.

I sometimes wonder why it is that beauty can be so blinding it can make you so obsessive to a point you crave attention from the person you are admiring...yet at the same time anything negative that they say can affect you deeply?

I found out the other day about the halo effect and how looks can be deceiving. Sadly I seem to be somewhat of a victim of this type of thing.

Does anyone feel so disctracted by beauty to a point you start to dispise people "as a whole" and avoid socialising because you know in most cases they come across as intimidating and ruin your confidence?

If so how servere is it?

    It happens. Sometimes over confident people make me itch because I beat myself up about not being as cool-headed as them.

    Chances are if you loosen up a little more and be a little more forgiving of yourself you should be okay.

      perhaps. although I must say the attractive man on your profile might have had somewhat of an inpact in my decision to reply this.

    This is just my personal opinion but if a woman has a really fit, athletic body then more often than not I will find her extremely attractive.
