Please see a therapist and work on your self confidence. Posting and asking people will not help you if you do not believe in what they are saying. Youve asked multiple times and get the same answers. Is there any adult you can confide in or a school therapist? Being a victim of bullying lowers your self esteem and a therapist can help you cope with those tramatic events and give you tools to face the situation later. I plead you to do this and get the tools now before you go through life feeling rejected.

I agree with Confusedinomicon about dealing with the root of why you feel compelled to ask how you look several times. I noticed you've posted in the Body Dysmorphic forum, so giving into obsessing over looks, only aggravates the problem.

You look great to me! Confusedinomicon is right on the money. You need to try and see someone and nip this problem in the bud while you are young.

It is not an easy thing to get over, our self esteem, body issues and self worth, and plagues women everywhere, but you have to realize that everyone is flawed, everyone dislikes things about themselves, and what you see in magazines and on television is airbrushing, clever lighting, and simply not reality. At some point, you have to embrace the things you dislike, maybe improve the things you are unhappy with, and more importantly, accept and learn to love what you can not change.

This is a time where you should be enjoying your youth and taking advantage of your limitless life, and do everything and be everything that you want to be. Enjoy the freedom you have as a young woman and learn to love yourself, your life, and those around you, instead of worrying about how others perceive you. That is not within your control, and you can not allow it to control you or how you see yourself. Not a boyfriend, a woman, not anyone on a forum out there in the world, can give you a true measurement of how beautiful you are. Beauty lies within, and in how you feel about yourself on the inside.

When you realize that you are beautiful, you will begin to feel it. And if you don't feel it, it's time to find out why.

Hang in there.

Thank you everyone for replying. If you could let me know what you think
about what age you think i look etc and about my appearance it does help.

Thank You. xxx

I don't think you look ugly at all. Your very pretty I myself have issues with the way I look and what people think of me.

[PsychGirl123]

I will answer but please help yourself not to obsess about it. You're looking for answers from people who don't even know you. That sounds odd because it is.

I thought you looked your age. Mature (not a little girl) but still youthful and young.
