I have just attended a high school reunion . We have not seen each other after 20 years. We have fun catching up what happens with each others life . There are some who made a great change. Since we are an exclusive girl school . We cannot help to envy those who still look good and young. Why do women feel insecure about their looks. Specially, if one gains a lot of weight . Are we really obsessed in looking young ? Was this just an ugly feeling ?

Then why do we have this feeling to hide and feel bad if we know we don't look good.
Specially, if we used to have that good looks , and now ,,not a trace remains..

I don't know, some people affect you the way that you feel like you're unattractive.I think it's just the lack of self-confidence that makes you feel so.Especially if you keep comparing and analyzing.I think the most important question is who are still happy with their lives and not who's still looking good.

I have a suggestion for you - try to make a little improvement.Massage, healthy diet, new style of clothes or haircut,more sleep,relaxation,a new hobby maybe.A simple change can do miracles sometimes.You start love yourself again. :)Come on.Get to action.

Got your point , Silvercoin.. But, there are those who are happy with their lives , but then came a point where they are not happy with their looks.. Thanks, for sharing...

Oh? don't tell me you don't want to look young? hahaha I really do want to look young and feel young. Yes, I agree to that. most women if not all but most, want to look sexy and young. It is very complementing when you hear somebody says, "wow!! you still look young and sexy at your age now? I can't believe it".. hahahaha

Even the fact that looks are not really important, it is really normal for women to be conscious about their looks especially in weight. We can't really avoid the inequality and discrimination on this world in terms of appearances.

Hi cajimenez!
How you guys have led each of your lives for the past 20 years is beauty enough, special in every way. Ugly is just a feeling as what the other respondees have said too. And you are lucky to have a high school reunion. I've only attended once years ago. I don't mind going for more. And the friends I miss alot are those I met in my elementary school, honest and sincere. It's strange though that we live in a very small city but we have never met again. Our lives' paths have never crossed.![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

I think the appearances are important for everyone , but not the most important for people . Therefore you should donot care about it so much . I think the human spirit can make us be more happy in life . Do you agree with me ?

I don't think anyone is truly ugly because true beauty comes from within, so unless you are a really mean spirited person, you are beautiful in your own unique way and I'm sure the people who love you would think you are a beautiful person. Me personally wouldn't go to a school reunion purely because I did go to school with girls who always looked down on everyone else so that they did feel ugly and inferior.

I guess , the moral lesson here is Stay away from people who'll make you feel bad... Thanks Laurelle11...
