What do you do if you long for a husband or bf to love, but your face is terribly scarred from acne and you doubt that anyone would ever want you?

Buy some makeup!

For every pot, there is a lid. My husband came with cystic acne on his face, chest and back. It's the man inside that I love. You might be able to get some "dermabrasion" that will minimize the depth of the scars.

1. Beauty is deeper than the skin 2. Try ProActiv solution.

I knew a lady that was alone after being divorced from her cheating husband. She thought that since she had all these horrible scars and moles and things all over her body that she would be alone forever. She was in her early 50s. She met someone 2 years ago who loved her inside and out and they have been married for nearly two years now. Love can see past all osrts of things to the heart, Never give up, and don't wear your negativity on your outside. She found her fella as soon as she quit feeling like a complete loser and was just going to try enjoying her life from then on and someone saw that in her.

Be yourself. That is what will be attractive...After an injury several years ago, I was left with some serious facial trauma. It is who I am. I was pretty self conscious about it at first, now, I just think that if somebody lets it get in the way, they are not the type of person I would want to be with anyway... Keep smiling, it will happen......

A big smile shines so bright a light that everything else disappears. It's your personality and attitude that will attract men, the right kind of men, to you. Playing sports or attending sports event would be a good idea.,,,

Beauty radiates from inside. Confidence, kindness, intelligence and humor all go into making a person beautiful. Anyone shopping for the box rather than the gift inside isn't worth worrying about.

Develop your personality and character. The right man will see the real you and know that what's on the outside is meaningless. Put yourself in places where you might meet such men -- church is a good start. And, Read your Bible!

you could try a chemical peel or dermabrasion. they're both proven to reduce the look of scars. i've had some bad scars from cystic acne and bare minerals covers up a lot! good luck!

If you're that embarrassed about the scars, you can check into the methods various people have listed to try and lessen them for your own benefit. But always keep in mind, it's the inner you that will win someone's love. When I was 13, I met a woman that I thought was very ugly. After I got to know her, I thought she was pretty. That was when I first realized that how we see a person depends on what they're like inside. I know there is someone out there for you, but it may take patience. Good luck!

I am not too familiar with treatments, but I would look into them. Honestly though, most men see the outside first and judge that way immediately. It is sad, but true. It is the inside that counts, but the outside that attracts. Don't buy makeup because that is the worst thing you can do. Try and treat it, but know that eventually you will meet someone that loves the way you laugh, loves your smile, loves everything about you and can look past it. Good luck.

I can sympathize with you! I don't have horrible acne, but I still break out and I do have scarring on my face. It's really frustrating and can certainly but a damper on your self esteem. Luckily I found someone who tells me I look beautiful no matter what :) You'll find someone. Currently I'm using Murads Acne Complex. The kit is about 60 dollars and it works!! It also clears up the scarring. A quicker more expensive alternative would be a chemical peel. It can be anywhere from 500-1000 dollars, depending on what you get done, but It works!! Good luck to you!

These were some nice answers :)

I had bad acne when I was younger, and it left my face pretty scarred up from it. Honestly, I have to say that it really hasnt been a problem. I think that if you are confident, and you come across that way, it really doesnt matter. There will always be some people who need the " perfect " woman, but really , I think that very few guys out there come without their own faults , bumps and warts. I personally wouldnt have a problem dating someone with acne scars, and I know that I am not alone. Most guys who are honest, and real, would not have a problem either. Maybe it is something else, and you are thinking that the problem is the scars, when maybe you are shy, or dont bath , or whatever. Take a good long look at yourself, and maybe you can figure it out. Good luck.

i wouldnt blame your looks. men will find something wrong with every woman. I wear a size 6-8 and ive been told im too fat to date. just be patient; the right one will come along. and he will love you for you, which is worth so much more than being lusted after for outward beauty.

Flirt with others and put up and effort to find love. Also try hydroquinone 2-10%. Go to Walgreens and buy AMBI in the brown tube in the beauty section. It is cheap and it works well.

You date a dermatologist. ;D

The love of my life. He overlooked my flaws from day one. And when I asked him if he still loved me even though... I was told he loved me especially because of that. So what I am trying to say is that someone, the right someone, will love you no matter what.
-
I didn;'t rate you negatively! I don't know who did. But thanks for your answer. By the way, what is your flaw, if I may ask?
-
Believe it or not, there are guys out there who will love you no matter how you look. Forget the ones that won't date you because you're not "pretty." They're shallow and won't see the qualities past the flaws. Look for someone who will take the time to get to know you for who you are. I know there are guys out there like this because I'm one of them. True, we're few and far between, but we do exist. Keep looking, and for goodness sakes, look past our flaws too. We all have them.
