A female Canada age 26-29, *icandyxoxo writes:

At school all the boys say how ugly I am to my face, and also behind my back.

But all my Friends say i am pretty.

and I try to eat less but i generally think i don't eat a lot but all the guys say how fat I am.

But i don't weigh that much I am only a few pounds over average. I am not super skinny. But i don't think I am that fat but ever since that happened Every time I look in the mirror i look like I am 200 pounds and also i look like a monster.

Now i don't like showing my face.

and i just think every one says I am pretty to make me feel better.

Can you give me some advice to get over my low self esteem.

Hi

Your self esteem will get better when you take no notice of these bad comments..REMEMBER people who say horrible things are not very nice people anyway...so why would you BELIEVE a not nice person? You ...like me... and like nearly everyone... has gone through this STAGE and it's part of growing ... You must not let these people's words hurt you anymore...tell them if they have nothing good to say...then you don't want to hear it you have more important things in your life.

Through life we get called many names.....and if we believed it all we would be so sad...you are unique and you are special and nobody should tell you otherwise.

Please believe these words and remember them...

Eat what you like...dress as you like....be you...LAUGH ALOT and SMILE..try to make friends. When you look in that mirror smile at yourself and believe that the person looking back at you is going to have a really good time and lots of fun.

Be happy and laugh! laugh! laugh! this is where beauty lives :)Spunky Monkey.

Girl, for heavens sake, don't take what they said to heart, they will turn you into an anorexic! If you know your not fat, ignore it. They are just being nasty, either because you're weaker than them or because they know you wouldn't sleep with them if they asked. If you know your not fat, but they still call you fat, then you know they are probably just saying your ugly as well, and don't mean it. They just want to upset you. I used to get called fat as well, when I was slightly underweight.
