Do You Get Called Ugly A Lot By Strangers

Has a stranger ever called you ugly or said "eww" as you walked by?

no not a stranger lol

A stranger called me ugly and I can't stop crying?

Im 13, Im really self conscious, I've always felt less than others, I was on Facebook messenger with a friend, she told me could I go on Askfm and tell a girl using my friends picture as her profile picture to stop pretending to be her, I did friendly and jokingly over 15 minutes, she kept saying that she wasn't fake the picture was her, After 15 minutes me and my friend had the idea to put a link to my facebook profile and say sooooo do you want to be friends? So I did, meaning it as a joke, she answered with 'your proper ugly', I don't know this person, but I always think If someone says it, it's probably something most people are thinking, I've gone through a lot of name calling but nothing serious, most of it joking, But this hit home, I felt like she was correct, I told 2 of my friends
The one I had being helping in the 1st place replied with 'awwwww what a *****' but after 2 minutes just put 'ugh shut up' and another friends response was to close my Facebook account. Both responses make me feel ugly and unloved, I could delete facebook but I can't delete my face in the street can I?
I'm really upset, please can people help???
If you want to see photos of me email me at

And I'll send them
Please all help is wanted I can't stop crying!!!!

If a stranger or a group of strangers called you ugly would it really affect you?

I ask this question because i was riding the bus on my way home from work yesterday and there was a group a guys on the bus that were around my age (27) and they were on the bus laughing and calling me ugly. I was not doing anything wrong to them at all. I was just sitting on the bus minding my own business.

I am black and black people will literally tell you to your face that you are ugly and they do not care if it hurts your feelings or not. I have never been called ugly before by anyone of another race. I get called this alot from people of my own race.

If you got called ugly a lot in school, does that mean its true?

I will not sugar coat this, but what are you hoping to gain? Do you want a complete stranger to offer you assurance?I am asking you this to better help you because no doubt a bunch of other quorans will give you prattle about “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”.Well guess what, it’s true. The girl that called you ugly no doubt considers you ugly. You mother mother may have said you are handsome, but mothers are usually biased.Well, I been in the same boat, so please remember that beauty is a convoluted standard. It’s convoluted because there are different notions of beauty in different countries and cultures, and even within the same cultures.You may be beautiful in one, and ugly in another. However, beauty is still convoluted due to people’s individual taste…What you need to worry about is the one narrative and the self-fulfilling prophecy.You are, after all, in 10th grade; this is an age where you are finding your identity. A girl walks up to you and calls you ugly. How are you supposed to know if it’s true? And in the absence of dissenting opinion, you slap an arbitrary label on yourself.Spare yourself the angst and stigma. Does this girl’s opinion really matter? And, remember that even if you are physically ulgy, you still have a large repertoire of traits to attract people with.One girl calls you ugly does not mean you are ugly. You are young —too young in my opinion — to make such a conclusion. Give yourself time and develop a hobby or join a club. You may find as you conduct these activities yourself the center of someone else’s gaze.

Has anyone ever called you ugly?

Twice.This comment couldn’t have come at a worst time. I was in the midst of the “I’m so ugly,I hate my face,why do I look like this?!” teenage phase. Add to that,I had my first crush. I was so serious about this guy. My friends and I made an elaborate plan to have him hang out with us the next day. Now, I didn’t wanna look too desperate so I had another girl text him. It went a little something like this:“Hey *asshole!”“Hey!”“Do you wanna hang out with us tomorrow at break time?”“Sure. You and who?”“Me,Nouran,and Jo.”“Nouran? Ew no, she’s ugly!”Ouch.The three of us were huddled over the phone waiting for his response. I read the text as he sent it. Awkward.I felt like this for a long,long time.Screw you boy,I’m beautiful.Another time,a girl I was friends with in 4th grade got into a massive fight with me. The fight was over my diary, which she just had to read. I asked her what the point of a “secret diary” was if other people got to read it.She came back at me with “You have fatty eyes!” I wouldn’t have minded if it had ended there. The next day,I had the honor of hearing an entire song sung by her and a few other girls she had taught the song to. It had the infamous fatty eyes line,and a few other phrases insulting my other body parts. I gotta say,the tune was pretty good.Oh well. At least she was expanding her adjectives list.*Changed his name to what it really should be.

How do you respond to a stranger calling you "ugly", and then stating "your mother should have swallowed you."? I was so distraught that someone could be this disgusting and vile to a stranger.

This says so much more about the person who said this than it does about you or your looks. It sounds like some idiot thought they were being clever by using a tired old insult on a new person. Ignore them. People like that feed on your repsonses, no matter whether you appear upset or say something rude back. There’s an old saying, “It’s best to let sleeping dogs lie.” It is also best to let braying jackasses bray. You deserve to be treated well in life. Those that can’t do that have no place in your life or in your brain. Don’t give them any real estate in your thoughts.

If a person is constantly called ugly by many random strangers does that mean that person is truly ugly looking?

Of course not!I have been called ugly or man looking or whatever, and thank you.I do not believe one should honor or make opinions about oneself based off anothers comments regarding our external attributes.It is giving whatever they say power and control over your feelings and also almost acknowledging them as if their opinion makes or brakes you.It does not, and why it is of any consequence, idk.After you call someone ugly and I texted that last yr. about an ex love(e) of mine.It certainly was not personal. It was in comparison to others in an avg. kind of theory type way, either way I accidently forwarded it or idk and I can only go back into my own background to understand how that must of hurt her/him.I am truly sorry, but ne falling head over heels in love should hopefully of let them know that their looks was not a deciding factor and I was not going to just up and run out to another for that type of ignorant external reason.They grew in beauty with each passing day and I can now say they are remarkable in strength and are pulchritudious.I may of spelled that wrong as my choice for internent is down and I am typing from a cell, not computer.I love John Donne as a poet and know it was used around those times.I tried to woo a women once using those lines, but I got played as she just only enjoyed the attention.I was guilty of that in the past too.

Random strangers are ruining my life by calling me ugly?

I had a close friend who went through that, and it was really painful! She was called fat and ugly by complete strangers, and she felt like she was walking around like a broken outcast. It was crazy though, because she found out from a doctor that she was actually experiencing 'auditory hallucinations' and with medication (it took some fine tuning) she stopped hearing people talking about her.

In the sources, I have a link to her thing. I don't know if it applies to you, but our bodies sometimes do weird things!

How can i get over the trauma of being called ugly too much? It hurts a lot and im anxious to be anywhere?

When i was mostly in middle school and highschool i was tormented because i was ugly. it still happens from time to time. But it was much worse in middle school and first year of high school. Random strangers would call me ugly, once i was walking to school and the boys behind told his friend "yo, that girl is mad ugly" another incident i had was in the bus filled with rowdy kids and as i pushed the door to get out, a kid i walked by said "ugly *** b*tch* i had groups of girls also say that to me and would give me nasty faces. i barely have any friends due to this and that fact i am so quiet and awkward.

All of this has put me into depression. i do not like most boys and they dont like me because i am not pretty enough and treat me like crap because of it. although i did improve because i am not treated as badly as before. I get very anxious to be in public a lot and in school, i still have groups of mean girls staring me down and boys too. i was called ugly in another country tooi had enough of feelings like an alien, i replay these horrible memories over and hate it, i hate i was born with this face, why couldn't everyone be born equally beautiful? :( how can i get over this pain and not be so anxious? i think i am hideous, especially the sides of my face. how can i stop the pain and accept i will always be rejected

i am 18 year old female btw :(
