You know, almost everyone goes through that. It's ok. To raise your self esteem, jus think of your good qualities, and/ or focus on something that is good about yourself when you see the ugly side, and just revolve yourself around that, eventually the rest of yourself will be forgotten and youd feel all beautiful again. Cheer up.
you have to think that you are pretty/attractive if peoples staring you all the time... Because if you are not then they won't look at you
If you are not attractive, face it. You were born with that face so live with it. Unless you contemplating a face change.. but before you do, watch Time. Jking.. I agree that looks are not everything and you should not let it bring you down. There are things you can do to compensate that lack of confidence due to your looks. Be good at sth. Polish your strengths and correct your weaknesses if you can. Compensate with humour/wit.. etc It is, however, normal to be concern about your appearance in today's world. Image is important everywhere, all the time. You can always learn to dress up. Find out what you look good in. If you can't decide ask others for opinions. Looks are alot abt packaging. Hair for example, is an important component to one's image. I dun refer to 'good/bad hair day' but more of finding a hairstyle that suits your face/ the occasion. It makes a difference. Lastly, be contended. At least you can complimented at times. Many ppl out there dun get any of that. Good luck in building your confidence!
A lot of people in this world are posers! but its all for fun, don't take it seriously. pose if you have to but be real to yourself, if it's confidence your lacking not your image. Find something that will help you build yourself up
if u are actaully pritty ur just being modest.... if ur ugly... just look around u n find someone uglier n just know that ur not the worst thats out there.... theres always someone uglyer..... (beauty is in the eye of the beholder)
What you need is more confidence in yourself, when you believe in yourself, you will feel a lot better about it. Besides, there are lots of people that are uglier than you are walking around thinking they're so pretty, right? You don't have to feel insecure about yourself. No one is perfect in looks, we all have our unique qualities. And smiling does help, I guess.
Just remember that you aren't as ugly or anything as you think! those stares could be them checking you out ;D and put downs are probably just cause tthey're jealous!
