ok. I think this is more than a beauty question, but I might be able to help you. When I was in high school, I thought I was the ugliest thing on the planet. I felt awful about myself. The thing is, I look back and wish I wouldn't have felt that way, because it wasn't as bad as I thought. Now despite your belief that you are "ugly," it sounds like you are a very nice guy who just has an issue with confidence. You may think you are the only one who feels this way about themself, but you are not. It sounds cliche, but confidence is one of the most attractive things women find in men. When someone walks in a room and is confident in himself/herself, that is what draws attention. I learned very fast that looks are nothing compared to trust, honesty, compassion, and compatibility. Confidence comes from within and if you tell yourself that you are a fantastic person and you go out there and talk to people and smile, you will be noticed. So the next time you even think the word "ugly," remind yourself that you are a wonderful person who is just a bit self concious. I hope I helped in some way, I wish you the best of luck!
