Is this normal?o:

5 Comments

Is it normal that a lot of people comment on my Facebook photo's telling me that I'm "Pretty" and "Gorgeous" but then at school, everyone avoids me and never talks to me.. And sometimes in class I can hear them whisper bad things about me.. I've only ever had 1 guy complement me in real life, and he wasn't too good looking, plus I think he was kidding.. Do you think people are only nice to me over Facebook because they feel sorry for me? I just don't get it.. I look the same in my pictures as I do in real life, I don't edit them or anything.
I'm confused....

    Well either you actually are pretty and they are too shy to say in real life. Or your really ugly and they are all just being mean. It's quite easy to tell...look in a mirror.

    They compliment you over Facebook because it's one degree removed from reality. If they compliment you in real life and you shoot them down, it's hard to deal with. A throwaway comment on a website is easier to live with.

    If I means anything, I expect they mean it when they compliment you.

    Thing about Facebook is that people will compliment your appearance even if there is nothing to compliment. Y ou mgiht not want to hear that but it's true.

    Seeing that you still go to school I will advise you to stop thinking about what they actually think of you. I think it is pointless to have people who ignore you in real life on facebook. The fact that they tell you that you are pretty might not be true, and the fact that they whisper bad things about you is a pretty good indicator of what they think of you.

    Don't get me wrong. Surely, they might honestly say that you are pretty, but you won't know for sure unless they tell you that in person. These days I see that some people are throwing around words such as pretty around. However, they might find it easier to let you know that you are pretty since they don't interact with you personally; and whisper bad things about you because - let's be honest, there is always someone who gets treated like that in school.

    Trust me, they probably say bad things about one another when they are not all together.

    I know that I went off of the topic a little bit, but to honestly answer your question I will ask you some. Do YOU think that you are pretty/beautiful?

    The only way you will know the true answer to the question which you wrote above is how you are feeling about yourself right now. If you see yourself as pretty, then that is your answer.

    And, stop caring about what they say. I went through high school feeling horrible because everyday passed in myself feeling 'confused' as you put it. It is pointless, and won't get you anywhere good. Feel pretty because you are not because some kids from school say it. Sure, when people compliment us, our confidence betters. But don't let other people's comments and compliments judge how you feel.
