I want to find a girlfriend, but i know i am not goodlooking?
I wanted to ask a complete stranger this question to see what your thoughts are. I have always had a hard time with girls in my life because I'm not very handsome. As a child i was beaten by my step father for years so much that the scars and broken bones deformed the way my face looks. I'm not hideous like the elephant man, but my disfigurement is noticeable, and i kind of look like scarface.
I've been out with girls in my life, but they all reject me sooner or later for the same reason, that they need to like what they look at, and I'm too ugly for them. My ex gf said she could see i was a very good looking man, but i just had alot of dimples and scars on my face.
I have been feeling very depressed lately as it seems girls are sooo superficial. It angers me when i see question posts on yahoo asking 'am i pretty' and showing a pretty girl there flaunting it in her photo. those people have nothing to be concerned about. My whole life people have stared at my scars and girls have cringed away from me.
I am a nice person other wise i wouldn't have the awesome friends i hav now, and i'm not superficial at all, it just seems everyone else is.............
Is there anything i can do? and i can't get plastic surgery, i work a next to minimum wage job and i go to university. i've already come to terms with the fact I will always be ugly, but I just can't stand the loneliness... :(, no matter how much of a nice person i am, no one wants a monster as a friend......

i sort of know how you feel. when i was born my skull was fused together and it had to be corrected, so growing up my skull grew a bit awkward, my right brow doesn't have much bone and my nose and jaw are a little crooked. im very self conscious about it but i met an amazing guy, it took me awhile, but he thought i was the most beautiful girl he's ever seen and even though we broke up, he still believes that. It may seem like theres no one that will accept you for you but there is :) it might be tomorrow or when you're older but when you find them it'll make the wait worth it i promise :)

You will find a good girl who treats you right, trust me on this one, my I have a friend who thinks my taste in men is repulsive, but I think hers are also... There are so many people put on this earth, and there will be someone who is attracted to you, I personally like scars on men, bit of a fetish for me. I'm sure your not as ugly as you think you are, after a lifetime of seeing your own face in the mirror you get bored of it, I have very low self esteem also, but I am trying hard to solve that, find something you DO like about your face in the morning and each day try to find something new you like, you will eventually see that your not ugly at all, don't put yourself down like this, you've had girlfriends in the past and will have more in the future, just because they broke up with you doesn't mean they did it because of the way you look, you were just not ment to be together. And you do seem like your a very nice natured man by the sounds of it, so don't keep on thinking your ugly! Because you will just end up hating yourself, if your a good laugh and a friendly guy you will be able to get a girlfriend no problem, no matter what you think you look like, HHS more confidence in yourself! It's a turn on.

Forget women. The more you go for women, the more they will reject you. You need a bigger purpose in life. Go out and be the best you can be. Go help someone who is in need of help. Go volunteer to help people who are less fortunate than you...and, yes, there are people who are less fortunate than you even though you don't feel like there are. The bottom line is if you live your life to the fullest, your personality with shine through. When this happens, people will start looking beyond your physical appearance.

Well, I am 20 never had a boyfriend. I have had lots of shots at it. Just have standards do not sell your self short. I have lots of friends who tell me I need to go out with men I am not attracted to.Personally I do not find muscles attractive. This is going to sound corny but honestly looks do not matter to me. If you lined all the attractive males in the world up. I bet known of them would stand out by looks but rather personality.
You are not weird. I have people tell me the same thing.If anyone tells you that their secretly jealous they settled for less. I remember being in nursing class. I had all these girls telling me I need to get laid get a job. I was a full time college student with a 4.0. I said ''no. I want to be a doctor.'' These girls picked on me in class. Truth was known of them were happy about their past relationships. One girl cried said ''how she let her boyfriend rape her''. She loved him so much she let him hit her. This was the girl that tell me to grow up and get laid. They settled for less attractive mates who are going no where in life.
I respect a guy that can wait control himself. It shows morals, trust. I know that your just not in it for sex. That means a lot! This is really rare to find. If you lived near me I so date you. Anyone who tells you different just jealous. Most people date for the wrong reasons. They date for the social status. They date for the ego boost. They date for the sex or fear being alone. If you date someone date someone because they give you something no one else can give you.
I get asked out all the time. Enjoy your single life try to find yourself as much as possible. Before you know it your going to be tied down wishing for your single life again.
Honestly I do not care about looks. Most woman do not. I know this one girl at my dance studio looks like a model and she has a fat boyfriend. It might be that you are clingy woman do not like men who are clingy. I notice you said ''you hate being alone''. You should not be with someone just because you fear being alone. Be with someone because you share the same poetry of the soul. I can relate to growing up in a abusive home. I have trust issues big time. Maybe you mistrust people a lot? After all that happen to you. It only natural for it to be hard to share intimacy with someone. Or maybe you go after the wrong woman. I am not superficial what so ever. You may be chasing all barbies.I love to date someone like you. I be honored.You sound really smart. I chose smarts over looks any day!

Don't be ashamed of who you are. You should feel confident in yourself and your abilities! Those girls are not worth your time. Not every girl is like that and I'm sure the right one will come along someday :).
