I feel ugly, and I'm insecure about my appearance, blah blah blah. Oh, and I'm a guy.?
You just got an attractive girl to admit she thinks u are hot. Normally, with me, this kind of confession wouldn't happen if this wasn't online. I have had the same prob as u up until I moved. I decided to change myself and pretend I had confidence and think about it everyday till it came naturally. I had to work on it to keep from wanting to not go to school anymore. The sad thing is, people tell me I actually am- aesthetically- extremely attractive [besides being confident], but I have only talked to one hot guy in my whole life- by chance, he hangs out with all the people who are a little bit of a freak and insecure, like me. You are in the same boat. I actually think your pics are kind of beautiful, your face reveals an expression that is really calm, modest and peaceful. To me that's hotness in itself, the aesthetics are more like 2nd place. Btw, I have been told that I'm "overly-wordy" my whole life. In an honors english class. (;
Im crying since im so insecure about my appearance?
I was similar, and one day my sister jokingly said, sometimes you just need to tell yourself how awesome you are. She didn't realize it, but she changed my life. So for a month every time I looked in the mirror I said, "I am awesome and beautiful" and eventually, I started to believe it. Now I just look in the mirror and love the person I am. And i was at one point incredibly self conscious. I want you to try to just tell yourself how amazing and beautiful and great you are. Eventually, you wont have to tell yourself, you'll just know it
How do you deal with insecurity over physical appearance?
Well, at least for me, I'm reallyyy attracted to tall guys. and i'm certain many other girls do too. it has something to do with making us feel safe and secure and stuff. but anyways, my appearance has bothered me a lot in my life. People could tell me I'm pretty, but I would never feel that way inside. It has everything to do with the way you view yourself. try to pick out one feature you like about yourself and focus on that everyday. attractiveness has a lot to do with confidence, so the more you're confident, the more attractive you will come off to girls. even if you have to fake it, do it. faking your confidence will eventually lead to you believing it. and trust me, personality is what matters thee most. appearance catches your attention, but personality is what keeps em coming. you could be the hottest guy in the room, but if you're a douche, no girl (at least the good ones) will ever find that attractive. hope this helped and good luck!
How do I stop feeling self conscious about my appearance to others? How do I accept myself for who I am and be confident about it?
By deconditioning your mind.Your insecurities are fears born out of the thoughts, ideas, opinions and impressions of the people through out your life and society you grew up in.When you throw all of that away, you can begin building your own idea of who you are, based on what YOU know about yourself.Getting to know yourself starts with listening to your feelings and learning to accept them exactly as they are, never dismissing or suppressing them because they might be “negative”.All your feelings are part of you. They are neither good nor bad. They just are. When you accept them as they are; for example: you feel angry because you’re late, you then feel guilty for feeling angry, so you suppress it. Don’t. Instead; accept that you are feeling angry. Say to yourself “I am angry!” and then wait. Relax. Let it settle. You may notice that the feeling has passed now. You feel relieved.Try this with all of your feelings, whenever you can remember.Stop feeling guilty. Guilt is stupid. It is not useful and it serves no benefit whatsoever. It holds us in the past, when we cannot go there! We are here, now, so that is where you focus. Guilt is only about the past. Accept your feelings, no need to feel bad, move on.Try some meditation. Sitting in a comfortable chair, near an open window, in a quiet, naturally lit place. Practice clearing your mind by imagining your mind is a river. The thoughts flowing by, but you are not engaging them, you just observe.Next, try spending time alone or with a pet in nature. Try just being present, seeing how many things you can see, hear, feel, smell etc. Use the thought clearing method above when the thoughts intrude.
How can I feel more confident about my appearance? I'm tired of feeling insecure & painfully ugly all the time
Look at magazines and learn how to accessorize what you have, and how to apply makeup, take a few pages from the magazines with you to Super Cuts and have them give you a cut and style you like, Super Cuts is cheap and they do fine work. You don't have to spend money to look acceptable, you have to work with what you have, and know you're doing the best you possibly can.
