My sister is prettier than me and it's killing my self-esteem. What should I do?
I should go ahead and say my sister is also prettier than me. And it used to give me a bitter taste in my mouth.I am the youngest one in my family, and as siblings, we look after each other. Well, normally the elder ones were in charge and had the responsibility to protect and provide the younger.So since I was a child, I was bitchy and demanding and I wanted things to go my way, including people’s affection.Everything went well my way for first couple years of my life, until I came to an age to realize who is the prettiest of all. I still tried to fool myself that I was still the best, and the most beautiful, and that’s why I am my mom’s favorite child. But that trick did not work so well with outsiders.My sister is astonishingly beautiful and everyone liked her. All the boys in schools and college. She had many male friends came to the house and hung out. Some of them were handsome too. And all of their attention went to my sister.I didn’t take that so well.I was jealous with her look. I tried to get people’s attention. I hoped my sister’s male friends liked me more than her. When they were trying to talk to my sister, I jumped into the conversation and started talking, trying to make them like me.I pretended that I didn’t care about her followers. I also acted mean to my sister. I hated the fact that I had no follower while she had a bunch of them. I hated the fact that she didn’t need to try so hard but people still liked her. I hated that she was a ball of joy, while I was grumpy the whole time.I wish I could tell you somehow I figured it out and I started to treat her well, but in fact I didn’t. Not until I grew up and I managed to nurture myself and my self-esteem.My sister is still breathtakingly beautiful, but she didn’t have a good marriage. She divorced and is a single mom while I am living happily with my husband. I feel sad for her.You see, if you love yourself enough, you will not need to worry about people’s affection. And you will not even care about the look. It is not about how pretty you are, but it is about how happy you are.Enjoy your time with your sister, feel happy for her pretty look while you still can. And DO NOT think about yourself as the uglier, which reduces your self-esteem as you are doing right now. Focus on what you have, build your confidence and knowledge.You are loved. You are pretty. And you know it.It starts with you.
Is somebody prettier than I am?
IT’S ALL PREFRENCE!You could be as fat as the VY Canis Majoris, and still be the most beautiful girl/guy to someone.It don’t matter.Someone, somewhere, thinks you’re drop dead beautiful.It doesn’t matter if most people don’t, although I doubt it’s that way in most of y’alls cases, but even if they don’t, you’re a fucking supermodel.You see that header image? To someone somewhere, she’s ugly.So, yes and no. There is someone prettier than you, but at the same time, there isn’t.
Is it okay to look prettier than your friend for her birthday party?
If you're already pretty, then how can you makie yourself ugly? Not possible. But don't buy anything that looks better on you then her's looks on her. Find something of equal "flashyness" lol. Or just look plain good and let her be gorg.
Do we see ourselves as uglier or prettier than what we actually are?
Actually I’ve heard it’s the exact opposite, we know our body’s and their flaws more than any other person due to us being us 24/7. We see ourselves in mirrors when we brush our teeth, look into cars, phones, pictures. When we look at ourselves we actually see ourselves “uglier” than what we actuality are perceived by other people due to noticing the minute flaws and details that change your perspective to view yourself uglier. Although an over-inflated ego can factor in as well, but over all you will view yourself uglier than in actuality, and other people due to not being near/seeing you all the time will not notice these flaws as much and view you “prettier”.
How do I deal with someone being prettier than me?
Look at it this way. If someone of average beauty looks around the room, about half of the people in the room are prettier and the other half are less pretty. The question you need to ask yourself is, “Why do I care if someone is prettier that I am?” Most of us average looking folk don’t make comparisons with other people’s looks. We just say, “Wow, she’s pretty!” or think quietly, “Eww, that’s unfortunate.” We don’t even think about where we rank in beauty. That being said, your question can only lead me to these assumptions. You are very beautiful (or you think you are) and she is the only person who outranks you on the physical beauty scale, leading you to be jealous and envious of her.You are very insecure about your looks and she knows that you are; therefore she uses that information against you.Now, to address your question, “How do you deal with someone being prettier than you?” If you are pretty, but she’s prettier, it doesn’t matter. The only benefit of physical beauty is the initial impression, not total beauty. Let her be arrogant and conceited. Nobody finds those traits attractive. The most beautiful people are not judged by their physical appearance alone. Their actions, attitude and heart are just as important. That’s the reason beauty contests include interviews and talent exhibitions. The personality is every bit as important to a person’s beauty. If you are insecure about your looks, remember this. No matter how physically beautiful a person is, there is always someone more beautiful. If there isn’t now, there will be eventually. Age will eventually cause her beauty to fade, and she will forever be less than she once was, always trying to get back to her former self. Internal beauty is forever! Be the better person and don’t worry about the arrogance of others. There is an old saying, “True beauty comes from within.” Don’t worry about not being pretty enough on the outside, it’s what inside that counts. Here's another thing to keep in mind. Over the years, I have come across many of the people I once knew from high school and college. Many of the most physically attractive people back in school are fairly average looking now, where many of the average looking people from school have grown into their looks and are quite attractive. Things change.
My twin sister is WAY prettier than me?!?
You know what you should do ? Start dressing a lot more fancy than she does and become her exact opposite (: . Pretty come from the inside not the outside so you have to fix your confidence first try taking a hot shower and do you hair and just listening to your ipod on high and dance around your room that ALWAYS makes me feel so much better about myself and sing to the mirror . In reality you guys look the same anyways so the person that said that she was prettier it's obviously taking favorites .
WHY is everyone so much prettier than me?
That is a terrible perspective of yourself. You may think your ugly, but someone else may think your beautiful. Anywhoo the secret to beauty is confidence. As long as you carry yourself like your pretty than most people won't notice your ugly. You probably aren't even ugly & you should really stop comparing yourself to others. Looks do alter. P.S watch the Trya Show more girlie : )
My Friend thinks she is prettier than me.?
Your friend needs a reality check. No telling when she'll get one. If you're confident, dont let someone outshine you. She's doing it on purpose. Guys perfer woman who show off the goods and blonde hair that usually is achieved by woman by frying it to a nice crunchy blond color -_- But you don't want any guy, you want a good guy, and you dont need some chick telling you all the guys are hers. I used to never date, and was behind everyone else. Now, i'm in a stable relationship for years, am engaged, while my friends ponder why multiple guys can't stand them for long. I'm still as "fat, strong, and boyish" as i've always been, and that has lead me in a better direction then some fake hussy with a pair of nice boobs. If you need a boost, get a new haircut. Something that is sharp, and fierce... Get some hair that goes "rawr" ;) Dress in more feminine clothing. Feminine doesnt mean screaming cleavage, it just means clean and shows off your curves. There's no magical haircolor that makes you more attractive..so go with one you know suits you. I personally like colors that show off the layers in hair if you feel you're getting outshined, dont trip them, just catch up, and show her you're not taking any of her nonsense. I wish you luck!! ;)
