A question about looks and the way people treat you :(

Ok, so I have three best friends (girls) and there is a boy who joined our group 5 months ago, who is kind of a friend. The thing is,he is A LOT nicer to the other 3 than he is with me. He hugs them more often, talks to them more often and smiles at them more. They are all so much prettier than me - could this be the reason? I AM really ugly (or at least most people think so..) but I have a nice personality, but I don’t think he wants to even have a go at finding out about me. It just gets me down. Im not saying he’s nasty with me (although he does seem to look at me evilly now and again…) but hes just not as nice. Are my looks the reason? Do looks effect the way you’re treated? Im not naive, but why are people so shallow if this is the case? Please answer :( thanks x

I never find the right time to just ask him.
Plus, there are a few times where he is nice to me and I forget this then hes nasty and it all comes back to me tbh :(

Not everyone can be a Hollywood starlet… or super-model… but trust me, some of these women as soon as they open their mouth, they show themselves to far uglier than we see on the outside. To answer your question, yes. A persons appearance has a huge impact on how you are perceived by others. That is where the expression, “dress for success” comes from. First impressions are very important, and most of those are formulated on look. It is quite well known that the “good looking” people even get the job before the over-weight man or woman… or the short man, or homely woman. It is a shameful Western perceptive (maybe world wide I dunno).

But here’s the deal. If you say you are ugly, then I guarantee you… you will be ugly. You should NEVER say that of yourself. Take the time and effort on yourself, so that you can feel good about yourself. You can be beautiful.
Bright blessings ~ Richard

its not always about looks and by the sounds of things he cant be that interested in the others just because of their looks, really can he? some people just click more than others, that is life! shallow people maybe but who cares about them?!

That boy’s a loser. Just don’t mind him and if you think the situation is getting worse(if he treats you more crappily), just go for it and punch him in the face. Some might say physical would not solve anything, but in my case, I would not wait until he spills out the excuse.

Just correcting my reply because I re-read it, realised it sounded wrong and that I missed a bit off:

Anon, I have a gay friend and I meant that I love the fact that hes gay. Ive never done anything but tell him how nice I think he is. At first he was wary of me (he thought I was judgemental)then he got to know me and were absoloutely fine now. In fact, were really close!
This lad may just need to get to know you first too!! However, if you think you may have done something to offend him before (maybe about his sexuality) then try to put it right with him.

Hope it helps :)

Hey all :)
Thanks so much for the replies!
This week has been a LOT better! Hes been talking to me more, weve been having a real good laugh and he hugs a lot now. I think he did just need a bit of time to get used to me, thats all :)
I think he is used to me now and everything is fine!!

Thanks all for the help :)
