Is it normal that no one has ever told me i'm beautiful? or pretty?

Well, in person, the only two people who have ever said to me that I'm pretty or I'm beautiful are my mom and my grandma. Maybe my dad, I don't know. Online, people tend to tell me, but that is many more people than I meet, so it's easier that one will find me as such. I don't quite know how it works..why people are afraid to, if they are, or maybe I'm just ugly. But is it normal that I've never been told this before? I don't think I'm ugly, so it's a tiny, tiny bit shocking, but I don't know!

    Tell yourself you're pretty. People might feel intimidated by your looks! I was told in high school that I was intimidating because i was hot. I'm not trying to be self righteous in any way, im simply using a real life example. I'm sure there is nothing to worry about. Good luck!

          How's the meditation coming along? I guess I scared you off with all that data, but I have all that prepared for people that are interested (ONLY people that are interested...hate freaks like the brainwashed Christians that force their shit on you)

            Oh no worries, i go back to it quite often to re-read and follow that info. I'm currently away from my usual 'comfort zone' at this point in time, so it is actually helping me gain some more insight about 'myself' and notice the natural ways of life again. I always have, but as I had told you previously, I was at a blocking point. It seems the walls are coming down a bit. It took more time, but i don't mind that. All in all, that was extremely useful information, that's actually benefiting me with some results that i can feel.

              Great. There also needs to be a balance between concentration meditation, insight meditation and loving-kindness meditaion. If I meditate for 40 minutes, I do 10 minutes of concentration, 10 minutes of loving-kindness and the rest insight meditation.

              Loving-kindness meditation is very very important and allows you to feel at one with every being and the environment. Good luck

    I know for a fact im at least average looking. im very normal. Funny thing though, is that older people seem to think im pretty and teenage boys my age dont give me a second glance. I notice its the older guys who check me out and not the younger ones. Guys my age ignore me so naturally they wouldn't call me pretty. Im thin, 5'6, wavy brown hair and in good facial porportions. Not one guy in high school has ever complimented me. Its okay, you can tell if people think your attractive by the way they act towards you. I also noticed that its the mature guys who are very upfront with compliments.

    I guess most everything could be beautiful in the right light. That's how I see it. If I knew you, I bet I'd find you beautiful.

        I agree with Dulse, everything has beauty in it, but not everyone sees it!

    Okay here's whats fucked up about me right now. Im 18 now and i think i was way more prettier as a little girl than now. The only people who call me beautiful is my mom ( WTF) i mean i accept her compliment but damn! Meanwhile my sister who is 19 gets compliments on facebook and instagram on how beautiful she is! She gets up to 250 likes and 40 comments on people saying stuff like " your so beautiful" or "your gorgeous why dont you have a boyfriend?" It pisses me off because i don't get it! Everybody gets complimented on their looks but me. My friends get compliments, my mother, my sister ALL the time! And even my two cousins who are only 3 and 5 YEARS OLD!! It's sad that 3 and 5 year old girls get called beautiful and not a girl whos just entering her adult years. I mean WTF!! My cousins ARE beautiful but shit i need compliments too. Maybe if i got compliments i would feel better about myself. My dad hasnt called me beautiful since i was 14. I guess its my weight for people not to give me compliments i guess. Im currently 5'5 and 170 lbs with chubby cheeks. Maybe if i get down to my goal size ill probably get called beautiful along with everybody else but still, wtf

    takes guts as a guy to tell a woman that. It's not easy, but then again.. I have a hard time complimenting anyone.

    Send me a picture and I'll tell you if you're pretty or not.

    I think it's pretty normal, the compliments I got are either from older people, relatives or my SO. People don't usually go straight up to you and say "you're beautiful", kinda creepy IMO. Usually they show it through their facial expressions and/or gestures.

    It's all in how you present yourself i think. Someone can crawl outta bed looking like a horses ass and then after a couple hours look like a runway model. It's how you present yourself i believe. Honestly i have 2 female friends and one of them is clearly more attractive than the other but the more attractive one is constantly talking about very vile things. Not sex based but just very NASTY topics while the other one speaks of poetry and philosophy and i MUST say that i find that one much much more attractive. Long story short, it's perfectly normal for you to have never been told that. Perhaps you just lack self-confidense and if you've ever seen the movie shallow hal, i TRULY see women in that fashion. If she looks like a horses ass on the outside, i'm not gonna go near her cuz the horse might kick me =\ If you lack self-confidence it will show in your appearance :) think positivly!

    how do people online tell you , are there pics ?
    if your a stunner that can make people hold back but others will still mention it somewhere , if your sort of average or below , people do tend to mainly say it when it strikes them and average doesn't really strike people so although unfair , average mightn't get to hear it much even if they're a pretty - average.
