All of my friends are much prettier than I am?

It's a sad fact, but we DO live in a superficial world. Yes, I admit that it shouldn't be necessary to care about such things too much beyond the basics, but it still happens. :(

If you don't feel good about how you look, do something to change it. Not plastic surgery, but probably use a little makeup, a different haircut, or probably update your wardrobe a little. I used to be lazy with my clothing.. I'd just throw on a shirt, jeans, and a jacket that didn't even match! Now, I take care in layering my clothes so I won't need jackets, and I feel a lot better about myself, and a lot more stylish too.

it is NOT true that better looking people are more successful, likely to find a mate, and are treated with more respect! Everyone is beautiful in their own way.

Remember: "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholders"

There is not only one version of pretty. Look in the mirror, find your best feature, and show it off!

And seriously, a great amazing personality is soo much better than your appearance.

It's a frame of mind. Sometimes we think things about ourselves which simply aren't true. Just because you don't think your that attractive doesn't mean others don't.

My wife thinks I'm hotter than volcano lava and I think I'm pretty average.

Everyone has different tastes. Just remember that not all people like the same things.

Cheer up :)

Have some confidence! If you don't like something, change it. I used to be the exact same way, I used to think I was the ugly duckling. If it's your weight, exercise. If it's your face, use makeup, get a haircut. You should love yourself.

well, it depends on what you think of yourself and not what others think of you. maybe you can do something to look better, and you will be more confident. try a different hairstyle, or some makeup.
