Are you ever bothered by your looks?

I'm pretty bothered by my looks on a day to day basis. I try not to let that come out of my personality, however. I occasionally do some appearance maintenance to keep my spirits up on blah days. Most of the time, people don't see my self-consciousness until I become much much closer to them. Sometimes I think my face is a bit lopsided. There's something that bothers me about asymmetrical features and it tends to sour my disposition--especially since there's virtually nothing I can do about it. I will never think of myself as a pretty girl, but I will constantly remain thankful for the attention I do get, if any.

I am still bothered by my looks at times, though my husband, and my entire family tells me that I have nothing to worry about. I guess my problem really comed from being over-weight as a high-schooler and being teased a lot for it. I like the way I look from the neck up and that is it. Other than that, I really am nothappy with my body and it seems like no matter what I do to try to fix it, it just doesn't work for me.

I am not a really pretty woman.I am not the class muse or the girl chased by lots of boys.I am not bothered at all.I don't think that being "a girl chased by lot of boys" is not the essence of being a true woman.I am more into earning more money and be successful in life.I would like to help my family and be with good friends.I am a good friend,and my friends accept and love me even if I am not pretty.as long as I love who am I and I'm confident about myself,I'm good-even without a man in my life.

When you age or have matured, all the more will you be bothered by your looks. You get to see the signs of graying hair, wrinkles. But then sometimes, it really helps if you have to accept it for they are all part of aging. When I was younger, what bothered me a lot was my height. I had always wished that I were a lot taller.

hi lingye! good day... I thank God that HE gave me a simple and nice face.lol And I don't even feel bothered my looks . GOD BLESS xchyller

yup yup, many many times. even now and im 25 yrs old. i guess there would always be someone more attractive, taller, cuter, than you. But also think that there will also be people who are lesser attractive than you are. But the thing is at the end of it all, looks won't really matter

Yes, I am very bothered by my looks. I don't feel that I am as pretty as I used to be. I look in the mirror and I don't see what I would like to see. My high cheeks are long gone. My smile has disappeared and been replaced with wrinkles. I look old but I don't feel old. Gravity has wreaked havoc on my body. My hair is gray if I don't dye it. I am short. I was teased a lot when I was a kid. Now I don't trust any compliments I receive as I don't know if they are genuine or not.

hello lingye, not really. i remember when i was still young that it's just fine with me how do i look for i was only simple and yet quite. not until when i was already in college wherein you can meet different kinds of people. but my eldest son does for he is already a teenager. he keep in washing papaya soap in his face and doesn't like oily foods. he is avoiding it so he will not have pimples. sometimes, he is so overreacting it. he is so concious with his looks. if he has a pimple, he kept on looking hisself in the mirror. even ask his mother to go to the dermatologist.

Hello, Yea of course I am, everyday I keep on looking in the mirror to see if something came up on my face overnight, and most of the time it has. The main reason is if you are good looking, you don't want to get uglier, you want to remain the same. Make sure you have a good day, Happy Lotting!!

Hi lingye I'm not bothered on my looks I'm handsome guy good looking guy there a lot of girl Like me and like me as her boyfriends and friends.I'm so very confident on my self I'm look like a artist in the tv. or tv shown When me and my friends hanging out in mall all of attention of the people around me is looking at me all people in the mall is looking at me and i see there eyes have intension on me to become friends me or boyfriends me but I'm so very confident on my self i continue walking and ignore him.. i see other women that smile at me.. and i give smile also to every one !

Well,when a woman put on fierce make-up and dresses well, she knows she will attract attention. You can virtually see it in their face. Their hairdo and the way they purse up their lips when they know someone is eying them are giveaways.I am not exceptionally good-looking but I do attract passersby. The secret-if you are just above average, make up and dress to kill!

Yes I've had major problems with this. I always see myself as a child in the mirror, people tell me I'm a man, I'm responsible and I'm a man. But I don't see myself as a man at all, all I see as a child. It's very frustrating and I don't do it intentionally. It leaves me feeling VERY insecure when I walk out of the house, I don't show it but it lasts with me =C

Yes! I had the same situation like you before. And just as you said, I would never consider myself as a pretty woman. Some people tell that to me but when I just look myself I could see how ugly I am. I've been frustrated by my looks since I've developed a sense of self consciousness. I had lots of pimples back then, actually I have some left now, but in moderation though, and that's a good thing. :)

No,I do not care my look,of course,maybe the reason is my look is ok,or goodlooking,Or maybe I am so confident of myself.I like learning ,and good studying,so I do not care my look.If I am ugly,I will care very much. LOOK is important for girls. we will old,but our hnowledge won't.so,study hard,and make ourselves magic,do not care the look,but make ouselves clean.It is enough. Good luck.

I've always been a bit short, and I still get teased about it (in a friendly way). I've never had problems with my looks, and if anyone did I couldn't care less, since I've always loved myself- which is, I think, the most important thing. as long as one loves himself, the opinion of others makes no difference. (one thing I can say though is that I'm not too happy with my profile, because I don't like the way my nose looks..)

Rarely I feel it as I am more comfortable by being myself and not going to change in order for other people to notice me. If i become more anxious with my look I feel a need for high maintenance to keep my look, While if I remain simple I feel I could move better and enjoy my freedom away from the scrutiny of other people.

Eh, I used to be self-conscious because I thought that I wasn't tall blond and fair like all my friends and I thought that boys thought that I was a bit plain and not that pretty. Now I really don't care what guys think. I love me for who I am, and if they don't...clearly I'm not meant to be with them. :P I embrace my shortness, after all...I'm awesome compacted into a smaller size, which means overall, I'm denser in awesomeness than taller people. :D Which just makes me naturally cooler, of course.

When I was a teenager I had spots and I got badly teased about it at school. Luckily I was quite sensible and just used to think they were being mean, and one day my spots would go. Maybe you are young, but I am 40 and occasionally I will bump into some 'girl' from school and sometimes the ones who were pretty at school don't end up the prettiest grown women, ie. you wouldn't look twice at them. I was a tiny big overweight at school and my best friend had a great figure. I bumped into her a few years ago and she actually looked annoyed as she looked at my figure. I was slimmer than her! I am not the most beautiful creature but I get attention from males, so it doesn't bother me too much!
