I am dumbfounded that your T would react to your sorrow and confusion with remarks like that. I don't know what point she was trying to make. At first, it seemed as though she was trying to reassure you that you are different (which is often a benefit!). However, when she began reasoning that this was probably the same reason why you don't have many friends because you aren't the typical good looking girl, that blew me away! Adding that she isn't surprised by your low self-esteem just throws logs in the fire.

Completely inappropriate and hurtful! I would recommend that you call and/or meet with her ASAP and talk openly about how much her remarks hurt your feelings. You definitely deserve to be treated with compassion by your T ~ not by strange remarks that make you even more insecure!

If it makes you feel any better, I was pre-teen when E.T. came out 25 (or 30??) years ago. The movie was a hit & my eyes are abnormally spaced wide apart. Kids at school started calling me E.T. eyes, which crushed me emotionally! It wasn't until years later, that I found out that men find my large & wide eyes to be sexy. It took a very long time for me to actually believe that most men actually liked my eyes, because the fear was so deeply embedded within me. Point is, what you may see as a physical fault now may actually be a plus to you later in life! ((((gentle hugs))))
