I Wish I Was Beautiful

people tell me im beautiful and pretty all the time, but when i look at myself i dont see it...and when sometimes i try to just accept myself and feel a little beauty someone comes along and degrades me and shoots down my confidence i...

When I was a kid, I always thought I was ugly. There was no doubt in my mind that I was. When I was 10, my mom told me I was ugly everyday. The first time anyone ever told me I was pretty (and I believed them) was in high school. One...

I think it would be so nice to be beautiful. To have that wonderful classic beauty that makes everyone stare. I'd even settle for naturally pretty or sweet looking. I know everyone always says its all about personality and as long as...

being told that I'm beautiful when all I see in the mirror is a monster. I hate that I take every single little comment to heart and let them ruin my whole day..even if its from a complete stranger. I wish I had perfect skin...and that...

You know how it is. Dodging cameras, dodging mirrors, untagging photos online.
Comments.
They're the worst.
It started with a teacher in year 4, making a comment about me being at the back when running in P.E. Telling me it was my own...

EvErYone is beautiful in their own way!

I see mine every day.  I know what I see.  I see a woman in her 30's who has had 3 kids.  I see a mess.

It's shallow and selfish, I know.  But I always wanted to be beautiful.  Instead, I have always been the...

i dont like people calling me pretty or beautiful, because im not. i dont see how people could possibly call me that word! I cant even wrap my mind around it. I wish i looked different. im a teenager so im constantly looking at...

I know what people see, but what they don't see is my mask that I hide, the insecure, broken woman who isn't very pretty on the inside. She is a mess, she is ugly, she is broken, and if people could see what's hiding beneath they would...

I have never really ever thought of my self, as beautiful, hell I have never even thought of my self, as even average. I just always feel like, I am the ugliest person in the world, and that people, just are trying to be nice to me...

I wish i could be pretty like all my sisters, but i wake up every morning to me. i just want to be the girl that someone loves and i wish somebody needed ,me. I have looked in the mirror and been devastated since i was 6 and things...

It sounds so self indulgent and vain but I wish I was good looking. I am just normal face and chubby! I don't like wearing makeup and fancy dresses un less its a special occasion and I just wish I was a bit more naturally pretty.

It’s funny, I do not want to be deemed as shallow but somehow that seems inevitable. It is not other people’s looks I’m obsessed with rather than my own flaws. When it comes to others I inexplicably begin to trace their best...

I miss being seen. I miss being smiled at. At home I was something. I didn't just blend into the wall paper. Easy as ignoring sadness. My sadness. If I was beautiful people would see me. I would shine right? My room mates would smile...

they say beuaty is in the eye of the beholder, they also say outer beauty is not important and only inner beauty is. well this maybe what should be true but in reality if ur not pretty on the outside no one wants to talk to u. i have...

I've never been anything special and i'm not claiming to be. I just want to be cherished, loved and held like no one has ever been held before. I want to be told that everything is going to be ok, and that I shouldn't worry so much. I...

I wish when people see me or pictures of me, they say, wow, she is beautiful. But I am just plain. I don't glow against anything. I don't cause heads to turn. I am invisible. I like it most of the time. But sometimes, I just want to...
