Do you pick cute friends to hang with or does it matter?

I feel shallow sometimes. I shy away from ugly people, only wanting to be friends with the cute types. My friends have told me that when they introduce their friends to our circle, I'm often cold and won't converse with them. Not sure how true that is. Do you belong to a click that are all cute?

I don't have a preference on who I hang out with. They can be different in so many ways and still be an awesome person. During High School, I became great friends with the handicap, not because they're handicap or no one wanted to be their friends. But because once you get to know them, they are really the coolest people you'll meet. And beauty is only skin deep. Personality is what makes you pretty. Because you can be the most beautiful person in the world, but if you have a nasty attitude, it makes you ugly. And friendship is about being with people who understands you and will laugh if you fall on your face drunk but then pick you up afterwards. I'm not God to pass judgment on looks. Friends are family you wish you had!

Back in high school, that used to be the thing from me. I'd shy away from people who me and my friends thought were "beneath" us. I only really got to know them in college, and that was when I realized that we're all the same. Only that we stem from different backgrounds. I don't think anyone is ugly anymore. I really hate that word now. All you have to do is just get to know them. If you don't like them, then you don't. Just don't use that word on them cos it could hurt their feelings. :)

i love my friends, and i see them all as beautiful people. I don't care what they look like. they are all beautiful to me. I would not pick people to be my friend just because i thought they were nice looking. that is just silly and now way to live your life

It does really matter to me. As long as they cool enough for me, I'll hang out with everyone

I don't so much shy away from 'ugly' people. I'll admit that sometimes I do kind of the opposite. I'd prefer to associate with people that I don't constantly have to compare myself to. I guess that's just me not being confident in myself, but I don't need anyone else to point out low self-esteem. That's kind of a trademark for adolescent women, right? :P

My friends are all shapes, sizes, and colors. In my mind they are all cute but that's just because they are my friends. I wouldn't want to say anything bad about them. I hate the word ugly too, it's just such an....ugly...word. Haha. Have you noticed this as well or just your friends?

I don't really care what my friends look like. Some are cuter than me and some aren't. I guess I hang out with people who have the same interests and lifestyle that I do most often. I like to feel comfortable around my friends.

Hello! Maybe you need to be changed. It's true taht anybody likes beautiful and cute person or things, but it is impossoble that the ugly ones disappear suddenly,so be cheerful, try to accept it!
