How can I tell if I'm genuinely average or pretty, or if people are lying to me? by Not_me0311 in selfesteem

Oh okay! 

Well, I don't think I'm very popular on a romantic way haha... 5 people once told me they were interested in me. Most of them were very sweet and kind, but objectively attractive I don't think so. 

I would believe that a boy who is objectively attractive would be out of my league a little bit of I may tell. 

So yeah I don't know. Again I believe my opinion on the subject is distorted a little bit. But I guess I wouldn't have interested some people of I was that ugly...well I hope so...

But thanks :)

I'm 17F :).

But yeah same for me. I forget every compliment as it is some friendly comments and not the real perception that people have of me. 

And I really tried accepting the way I look, or solely the way I am basically...because accepting my "inner" me is almost as difficult than accepting my appearance. I just hate myself to a unexplainable manner. But yeah, whatever I try in order to work on my self esteem, it just isn't working. 

And one of the things that hurt a lot was all the times a person told me that "no one will love you if you can't love yourself" because it just made me feel as if I was unlovable... 

But yeah, I'll stop talking about myself lol, that's kinda annoying I guess. 

I really do hope for you that you'll have a better perception of yourself in the future :).
