You should learn to let it go. What people say does hurt, but you have to learn that your self worth is not what other people have to say about you. Ignore them. And start working on your self confidence. Soon theyll run out of things to say. Good luck. ~+~

I'm sorry that that has happened to you. People can be so mindlessly cruel. I understand the people at school, because they're idiots who haven't an ounce of maturity in them yet, but members in your family is surprising. Have you talked to your mom or dad about it? That should NOT be going on. I definitely wouldn't change what you do/like doing, because complete idiots are telling you what their ignorant asses think of you. Trust me, things will get better. Just have patience, and understand that (as Jesus once said) "they know not what they do." God bless you.

You are a beautiful person, you cant let someone else's words decide how you feel about yourself. I am sorry your family is shallow and cruel. You should never hide, be proud of what you are, you are a work in progress!!

It seems like you need to build some strong defenses. First, what you need to do is make sure that you are happy with yourself. You can't change your physical features, or at least you should not, but if you really think inside that you are fat-might as well lose the weight. I know in my case, losing weight would make me healthier and give me more confidence. From your picture, you look really skinny to me. Maybe just maintaining a fit body will give you the confidence you need. Build that muscle or run that mile everyday. Other things you can do to boost your confidence is dress nice and look pretty- based on your own personal standards of course. Your favorite shirt can make you feel amazing. Forget about what the people in school, or the people in your family say. If you honestly deep down inside think there is no basis, then screw them. IF you think they may be true, then maybe that is why it bothers you so much. remember only change for you- and only for a better you. and if you don't need to, then don't change at all. of course, don't hide ever. build that confidence and show the world exactly what you are made of, whether they can handle it or not!

Why would you want to hide? i know what they're saying hurts, but if you do that they've won....Is that what you want? i know it's hard to hear the nasty things their saying, and I realize it hurts, but you have got to find the fighter in you.

I went through similar things when I was in school. It was hard but I got through it! Trust me, life will get better. Just take a day/week/month to pamper yourself, hang out with people that have similar interests, and just be yourself. I don't care if your beautiful/ugly in this world. You've got to dazzle people with your personality. Who cares if every guy wants to date you, look at Halle Berry, she's argubaly the most beautiful woman on earth, yet none of her husbands have remained faithful to her. You've got to start with your insides first. Then you can work on your external flaws!

do somthing amazing with your life then rub it in there face later in life

is it your parents picking on you? if not, tell them and then tell your guidance counselour at school exactly who it is saying mean things to you. i must say, though, i got picked on all the time in school and the people who did it are now low-lives who have gone nowhere in life so dont listen to them because anyone who puts someone else down for looks or anything are so insecure with themselves that they make other people hurt so they dont feel like the only ones.

i understand that words like this hurt you that i nor anyone else could possibly feel. however you need to stand up to those who hurt you and let them have it. sometimes you just gotta get in their face and say "Fuck You." don't be afraid to let others know that you are tired of being called names.

dont worry about what ppl say about you in school. they dont know you. Just ignore them..or tell them what you think of them. speak up. you are not ugly nor fat. if you think your "fat" then work out.. it relieves stress and helps build up your confidence. the only thing that should matter is how you feel about yourself if someone thinks you are ugly or fat they have no business telling you that. ppl can be crude. as far as family... my grandmother constantly tells me im fat and that i have so many flaws... i dont know why she tells me that, but i basically put it in the back of my mind. its whatever.. if she thinks that oh well.. not my problem. love yourself for everything you are. ppl will notice your build in confidense and you will shine:) dont ever let anyone walk all over you... they do it once and they do it again and again... start speaking up for yourself... most of the ppl in high school your never going to see again..so dont worry about them..

i know you probably dont think as ylsdrawkcab as i do, but people tell me im ugly, and i think thats their problem - theyre the ones that have to look at something they dont like, which, as anyone whos ever seen half a pomegranate can tell you, is not nice :s assuming youre a normal person though, you dont look fat or ugly in your profile picture, which makes me believe its your self esteem that needs work...so! makeover! new clothes! new friends! avoid those people! work on your body (like gym, not surgery...)! new baseball bat for those you cant avoid! cheer up hun!
