i bet you are beautiful! you probably dont feel it but you are. its amazing how girls can put themselfs down.
most often, girls will compare themselves to other girls and feel horrible inside after.
for example-my best friend is sooo stunning.
the other night i got dressed up to go out-and she got kind of upset-she thought i looked good and she felt ugly. i was shocked because she's got such lovley hair and eyes and a perfect smile.
this morning i felt horrible! i lookd in the mirror n wished i could change myself lol somehow..but i got over it as the day went on.
i reckon, to gain true confidence, you need something that makes you strong on the inside. like a hobbie youre good at, focus on it, make your self the best at your hobbie. geting a job, meeting new people, speaking to people helps you gain a strong sense of what you want, and how you want to be.
this might sound so silly, but i got my confidence from working in clothes stores. speaking to the customers, looking at the latest trends arriving in store, giving people my advice in the fitting rooms lol and generally just gaining a better perspective on clothes and there styles.
also, you could get a new haircut, theres plenty of department stores who test make up on you (even though you probs dont need make up) but you could ask them to try thing on you that enhance your features , the best bits of your face, sometimes the products can be expensive-so shop around.
most importantly..do not rely on someone elses opinion. if youre not sure about something do not buy it. if you think something is not fitting right it probably isnt, so get a tad looser one, never follow the crowd! and never rely on somebody to tell you that youre beautiful-yes it feels nice, but it would be even more nice if you said it to yourself every morning and every night, focus on what you like best about your self. dont look at other girls, most likley theyre probably looking at you and feeling crap inside too. its a horrible circle. but seriously every body is hotttt! :) i truly mean it.
god bless
friend

think of ugly girls like scarlett johanson, she takes so much care of her self. get a nice haircut inspired on your idols, keep your nails polished, invest in great looking clothing, invest in fashion magazines, bit don't - never - be shy to show off how extravagantly beautifull you are. You feel; ugly when you make a huge effort to hide.

When i feel down about my looks, I make a list of all my best features. Instead of focusing on your bad points try to focus on the positives. Getting praise from your friends is a good way to raise your self-esteem, so why don't you ask them what they like about you.
The cnfidence bit is easy, you don't have to feel confident but if you act it you will begin to feel confident. Also focus on the achievements in your life, instead of on your failures, this way you will feel better in yourself.
And don't forget to smile because it always makes you look confident and brightens a room.

You just have to learn to be happy with yourself make a list of your good qualities get a hair cut or new outfit go for a makeover. Start a hobby. You will get your groove back you have to stop feeling sorry for yourself and get out there into the world.As my mother says '' Grab your ass and get glad'' Have some fun and hang out with friends as soon as you are laughing you will be fine!
