Am I ugly???? Please help me!?

Question

Apologies for such a long question.

I am 15 years old and I can't dropped out of school because the kids all make fun of me for the way I look. I am 5 foor 8 and 16 stone. I am alright with the way I lookk but the kids all laugh and say I'm so ugly that no one will ever want me and that I'm fat and disgusting and make them feel sick. Because I've stopped going to school, my parents are always yelling at me and each other and it's got to the point where we never spend good times together.

My mum said I'm being thrown out of the house at sixteen (im sixteen in a month) if I don't go back to school, but I can't, because I'm so ugly. I hate myself so much. I don't know what to do to make me feel better about myself. I don't want to lost weight or anything. I would be happy being curvy, but I have a thin skin and I often cry alone because I'm sick of everyone nagging at me.

Honestly, do you think I'm ugly? I know these pictures are only of my face, but the kids also say my face is like a troll. I'm depressed. I know it sounds dramatic, but I feel awful. I'm going to end up with a crap job all because of the way I look. I'll never get a boyfriend either.

Any advice?

Answer 1

You're not ugly. You're just sort of chubby. Also, you should trim your bangs. You are hiding some real lovely eyes there.



Just doing some moderate excercise will do you some good, not just to improve your looks, but to make you feel healthier and happier, inside and out (Whenever I excercise, I get really puumped up and I feel like I can do all sorts of things). Sitting around at home, doing nothing will make things worse because there isn't anything to distract you from your thoughts.



I know you will probably feel embarassed to even get out of the house, but trust me - you need to bring your life back together. Nothing's going to make this situation go away except for your willpower. Show those kids what you're made of - that life isn't all about looks, that when they grow old their 'good' looks will just fade away and all they have left are their horrible personalities.

Answer 2

I think you're really pretty....but you are also on the bad side of chubby. I suggest you start looking at life a different way. You should be glad that God gave you life and enjoy life. Maybe get a gym membership and start working out and eating healthy. The kids at school will make fun of anyone who seems to be self conscience so start being confident and ignore what these kids are saying. I know its hard because the same thing happened to me when I was in 5th grade. I just changed my attitude and found some really sweet friends. Good luck!

Answer 3

I honestly don't answer these questions but you're seriously pretty! I don't know what everyone is saying cause there are some ugly pictures on here and people call them pretty.

All you have to do is loose some weight and get your hair outta your face. I know you don't wanna loose weight but it makes a big difference and gives a big confidence boost and less teasing. It's also better for your health. Please don't starve your self. Go to the Diet and Fitness section and you'll get answers there :)

Answer 4

You're so pretty!! :)

And that's in all honesty, you're really pretty darn stunning!

It's disgusting how society and even just humanity can be so spiteful and HIDEOUS. Such an immature lot of people, who said all those things, at your school.

I'd seriously suggest talking to someone about how you're feeling. It sounds like you're in great need of some confidence building and TLC.

I hate - actually HATE (I only use that word if I mean it..) - that those kids have done that to you. It's disgusting how much words can hurt, I know (but not in such circumstances). Please, I'd really like you to at least let someone know how you are, and not to hide from it all on your own! I've had to deal with depression (I did, on my own and then seldom telling anyone how I was feeling - an utter shell and too easily crumbled and so insecure, and that I couldn't hold on or say onto things anymore. suicidal thoughts. to sum it up) on my own until i just cracked, and blurted it out one morning to my dad. I'd been missing school and avoiding school.



You could try to find another school. Start a-fresh. New people. I can't stand that people at your old school would be so despicable - and if you can't stand to go back to that school, please try to see about any other schools.

I am in much need of a word which is much more brutal to describe those freakin' bullies.



I do hope that you don't take any offense, however I think that you could help your emotional well-being and physical health by loosing a bit of weight. Or have a goal (an obtainable goal) of weight-loss. I am saying this actually particularly in relevance to your body's health. Your organ's happiness can only make yourself happier in the long-run, too!



You're nearly 16 - people in your school, in your year group, have much potential to gain some maturity and consideration to other people who aren't just themselves.

Remember that bullies are often people who are infact insecure themselves, and others may be intimidated and join in on their sides.



At the least, getting some qualifications is a must in our society of Going to School --> getting some grades --> further qualifications to get a carrerr --> have a career.

If you're determined to not go back to school, you could try colleges (in the UK they are not the same as Universities, but can offer high-school-leveled qualifications as well as qualifications above high-school-levels) at least.



jl is right - as are plenty of other people on your Yahoo! Question.



Getting even a little general exercise can benefit you so, so much :)

Answer 5

you just gotta start somewhere. don't hide and change schools. embrace who you are, then that's all that matters. make a new friend. ignore all those insults you get because honestly, what are they to you ? if you don't let the insults get to you , then nothing can bring you down . just remember that looks aren't always everything . your personality counts. a lot more than looks can ever will . <3



feel better soon alrights ? there's nothing worse than this feeling, and it's sad how practically everyone goes through it ): I know I do .

Answer 6

4/10. Stop caring about what people say. No offense but maybe you should start loosing some weight to build your confidence...that 4 can go up to 8 trust me. Just stop caring about what other people say. Your still young...wait 2 more years and people will start treating your more respectively, and you should really respect yourself more...lose weight.

Answer 7

No your not ugly. You are very pretty. The people at your school(the one you dropped out of) are just iggnorant snots. Just forge about them and just go to your classes and if somone bothers you ignore them (I know thats hard) or tell them to f**k off. Don't let people judge you. You'll find some guy that likes you for who you are. It just takes time. Hope I helped

Answer 8

your actually really pretty the thing is you take what people say and let it go to your head people used to tell me i was ugly and everything until last year i completely changed how i looked and started to walk confidently and felt proud of myself but now all those people that called me ugly say things like ur freaken hot!! n random people come up to me and tell me wow your really pretty i thought damn ill NEVER get a boyfriend but now ive had many:DD so if u just think gosh damn im hot! people will actually think you will plus show people the real you...SHINE!!!(sounded really corny XD) but maybe if u loose some weight you will be happier trust me!! get into some sports n clubs that interest you!! you'll love it! just try to ignore all the a**holes that say stuff! just find your true style and trust me people will accept you! oh yea and i love your hair!!!! ;D

Answer 9

Not at all ugly. Stay in school. I was teased in high school, once its over it will all be a memory, yes maybe a bad one. But that diploma will be worth the suffering. After high school you wont have to deal with it anymore. College isnt like that, most of the immature ones dont make it that far.

And if you dont go college, well its not like that in the real world. Kids (teenagers) are so mean!

Please go back to school.

I think you should cut your bangs,, you have big bright eyes and cant show them off with long bangs. Just my opinion.

Answer 10

i think youd look so much prettier with your hair out of your face because u are pretty:) and i know so many people probley tell you this but you should just block those people out of your head because when it all comes down to it we"re all equal and no ones better than any one although alot of people dont see it like that and dont stop going to school because if you drop out youll deeply regret it, highschools only 4 years of your life and those 4 years will greatly determine how the rest of your life is gonna go:)

Answer 11

Giirrrrlll please. You want to look good? Lose weight, wear makeup, and do your hair really nicely. And wear clothes that are in. They don't have to be brand name, though that helps. I know a girl at my school who never wears Aeropostale or Abercrombie or whatever and she's super popular cause she tries really hard to look good. Also don't go for that emo or goth look. People will call me shallow but look at all the popular girls at school. You aren't trashy if you wear makeup or whatever people try to say. Also be social. People like that. And people who aren't gorgeous get nice jobs. That's so not true.

So don't worry about that.

Answer 12

No one is ugly, especially not yourself. Please don't ever think that. Go back to school and show them that you're a beautiful person because you really are pretty. Don't pay attention to what anyone thinks other than yourself. Work on your self-esteem. Look in the mirror every day and say "I am a good, beautiful girl." I used to do that. Please try it. It really helped me.

Answer 13

4/10

Answer 15

Answer 16

You SHOULD care about weight and im positive that you will feel better about you if you lost weight. Obesity is extremely unhealthy
