ever been told you werent good looking?

I got picked on unmerceslessly in middle and high school. I was told to my face that I was ugly, unattractive, fat, ect. My best friend at the time had big boobs (I am not well endowed) and all the guys would make comments to me about how hot she was because of her chest, and I was just "one of the guys" or that I was the "token ugly friend"- words hurt.

I would like to think that I have grown up, and moved past that, but I still have those insecurities.

What it did give me was a wicked sense of sarcasm and humor- if I made the joke first, meant they couldn't.

I've never been told that outright, but I have had rude comments about my hair/clothes/etc. before. I know it's cliche, but the people who say these things are really just insecure about themselves, and you shouldn't let it get to you.
If you are confident in yourself, then you are good looking.

I've never had anyone blatantly tell me to my face that i'm ugly but they could well have been thinking it. I do however get alot of if you werent so fat you'd be really attractive, which i guess is a backwards way of calling somebody ugly.... so actually my answer is yes! lol.

I've never been called ugly. I get one of two things:

1) "You're awesome but I'm not really into "big" guys"

2) The look. If you are unfamiliar with "the look", picture a woman entering a room and seeing a cockroach on the floor. That look that crosses her face is about what "the look" is.

I am so sorry someone said something so hurtful to you. I have never been told I was "ugly" it has always been a passive aggressive weight comment. My grandfather said to me, " It was great to see you this Christmas, but how about next visit we see a little less of you." It was years ago and it still haunts me today Everyone has beauty and value regardless of the size or physical appearance We just have to realize some people over indulge on the Hateraide

I haven't been told to my face, but I've heard people talk about me to others "Erin is fat." This was years ago during high school. I'll admit I wasn't the skinny popular girl, but I wasn't fat either. I was actually smaller than I am now. I wore one size smaller in high school, I only wear 13/14 now! I didn't have the best fashion then. I liked t-shirts and jeans. Normally, I had my hair pulled back. I wasn't too incompetent because I was on the dance team and we wore short skirts, tight clothing, and sleeveless things at every game. I still have not forgotten that comment to this day! I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing and who said it.

People can be so mean!! Especially teenagers because they are still young and don't see the reality of people (most teenagers anyway). The ideal is not always model body!!!

I have a reply to each of your two points
1.Bigger guys = better snugglers. I love bigger guys!
2. I'm not afraid of bugs, so if I saw a cockroach on the floor, I would try to catch it and set it free outside.

I may be a little weird.

Your friend (ex-friend?) is a dirty liar.

This. lol. She was a dirty liar and probably trying to throw you off track. You're a total cutie. I would keep ignoring her

Oh, and to answer the thread, yeah i've been called ugly before.

my older brother told me i was so ugly my parents had to be paid to bring me home from the hospital. I told him he looked like a monkey's a** directly after a bowel movement so I guess we are even.

I dunno if i was ever told out loud but i know that i never had a boyfriend till i was 20 and i never looked my age i also took forever to get boobs (lol) and even then they are nothing to brag about, had acne etc, one time in high school i had someone throw an apple core at me, when i hit my 20's i finally had some attention but could never register it as real cause i couldn't believe it, but now that i stopped giving a crap i seem to attract more positive people and now i am 27, and on new years i was told i was hot and that i looked 19 lol (made my night) so all those 27 year olds from high school that now look like they are 40 can suck it!!! I am a mom of 2 who can pull off being hot and 8 years younger hahahahaha
