My boyfriend left me for a prettier girl..

Am I really THAT ugly?

My boyfriend of one year and about three months left me for a different girl. He said that he needed someone who isn’t embarrassing to bring out in public…
argh, here’s me; http://i43.tinypic.com/10qb445.jpg

and here is her; http://i43.tinypic.com/2db9lop.jpg

I don’t know, I love my ex still but, when I see how happy he is with her it makes me really depressed and i don’t know anymore.

You are really cute. It was cruel of him to say that he is embarrassed to be in public with you. (Are you doing anything weird in public?) I think he is pond scum and you should forget the loser. You should spend time with your friends, with school, with hobbies or a part-time job. If you meet someone awesome, that’s great, but don’t make having or not having a boyfriend the focus of your life.

oh my god. THAT is why he broke up with you?

You have absolutely no need to be sad for your loss. he sounds like a mindless idiot.

The only thing that might make her more attractive in the photo is the fact that she is smiling and you are frowning.

other than that, no you are not ugly. He is an IDIOT. trust me. good boyfriends dont say awful things like that. they’re fun, they make you feel pretty, and they treat you with respect. hes just insecure about himself

Well your not ugly lol, but while she does look pretty it would appear that looks are too important for her, not a plus.

If he was embarrassed to bring you into public, maybe learning why would be a good thing for your next relationship. I had a girl break up with me because she was embarrassed of me and it was because she had a problem with people staring at her like she was a freak. He may feel the same way. You may be normal and fun, but if can’t handle the looks, then he could feel embarrassed.

Jeez . . . what a cad! You are definitely not ugly or unattractive! This guy just wanted to hurt you! Gentlemen never say something like that to a girl–even if it WERE true! And it’s not in your case!

And I’m gonna bet that HE is no Adonis . . . in fact, I’m betting that he’s actually kind of stupid looking.

Only a stupid person would say that to a girl who cared about him!

I actually think your face is cool looking. Its strong, but pretty. She has covered her face in makeup and cut a hole in her lip in order to fit in with the crowd your boy probably wanted in on. You didn’t change - go you! Her face, and probably her personality are a dime a dozen, whereas yours is one in a million.

Well, first of all, your now ex-boyfriend sounds to be a shallow douchebag, and a used one at that. Second, why not show a pic of you smiling? Wearing makeup? It makes a difference in how people are perceived; kinda cutting yourself off at the knees. You ain’t ugly by a long shot.

You have an absolutely beautiful face and gorgeous eyes.
That girl is pretty yes. But she is also orange, and covered in make up an clearly puts too much effort in. It sounds like your boyfriend is insecure, shallow and generally a horrible human being.
If he is embarassed to be with someone he cares about in public he has some serious issues and you should be glad to be rid of him.
I know it stings just out of principle, but if he was a good guy and really right for you he would not have said such a horrible and ridiculous thing.
I would personally be embarassed to be seen with someone like him!

The other girl looks like a skuzzz. I hate facial piercings and I wouldn’t take her to a dog show, she might get confused with the other beotchs. Really you look like a pretty, natural looking girl that deserves more than a guy who is verbally abusive and just plain mean.

Fake tan. Plus she looks like she has blue contacts in they are just a little too blue and her hair is not natural either. Pretty much everything about her is fake, even the smile.

Congratulations!

He did you a huge favour. You deserve a lot better in life than being hooked up with a shallow twerp…

Celebrate :o)

Heyyyy.. sounds like my kinda woman. Now, if she’d only be made of rubber or vinyl, we’d have sheer perfection! Oop.. forgot the molded-in beer holder.

By the way, hun, it’s best not to put pictures of people up on the net without their permission.

We don’t need to see her or you to know that he’s not right for you :o)

Your dog can hold the beer while it is your turn and you can hold the beer for the dog when it is his turn. Isn’t that what best friends are for?

i think you look much better than that other girl. she looks absolutely fake.
but like mums said, we don’t need to know what this girl looks like to know that your ex is a shallow little turd with poor taste in women.

She’d probably drink the beer.

I think you’re WAY prettier than that girl. She is not “pretty” at all. She looks like a dope!

I don’t think it’s right that you put her photo up here.

But like everyone has said you are pretty. Fresh skin- big eyes and big lips, just don’t be so cross (as you seem in your picture).

The only thing the other girl has going for her is she seems friendly and bubbly because she is smiling.

I he is happier with her good for them- you are going to be that much more happier once you get over the heart break. And then you can be back on the market again and ready for the nest friendship/ relationship that will make you even happier.

I also deduce that you have Irish ancestry!

In your photo, it seems that you are about to say, “Sean O’Sullivan! You come out of this pub right now!” ;-)

omg! you r so pretty and cute.. The other girl omg… she looks so tan and ugly.. I don’t like the way she looks. You have a very unique face and if he can’t see that then sucks for him/ It’s all about personality and not about looks. And to BELIEVE he said i need find someone who isn’t embarassing to the public?!!! oh my ****** GOD! seriously? tell his sorry *** that he is history! u deserve someone better! make him regret!
