Am I actually ugly?

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but recently someone told me that I was in the top 10 ugliest women he had ever seen and as excepted this hurt my feelings. In the past I have been called manly,homely and told I was ugly as s*** are these people just mean and trying to get a rise out of me? I know I am at a average looking woman(never been called pretty so probly my assment of my looks is acurate.
Also I know that it is important to have beauty on the inside as well as the in that is why I never attack anyone based on how they look and I try to be kind to everyone and everything but it still makes me feel down when I hear these kinds of things.

This is not a post to get attention I was just wondering if anyone else can relate to being called ugly by other people.::

It sounds like people are just being mean to you for the sake of being mean. Respectable people don't go around calling other people ugly, no matter what they look like.

I agree with your assessment of your looks, those people were just being mean, you get that through life from time to time, some people enjoy cruelty, especially if you are sensitive like us SAers.

Yep been called that. They're being mean, try to shrug it off. Others slander others usually because they need to boost their own self esteem. Take some pride knowing you don't do that to others regardless of your self esteem.

you are most certainly not ugly

People are just so rude in this world, I don't think anyone is "ugly" that word doesn't even exist to me. In my eyes everyone is beautiful and I appreciate flaws because it shows how imperfect we are and that makes us special. I've had people call me the worst names in the book about how ugly they think I am and then I have some people telling me I should be a model, Only listen to the good compliments people give you in life Because those will take you the farthest, The rude comments will only slow you down.

I don't know what you look like, but I'm sure you are not ugly. Far from ugly, more like beautiful.

I have been called ugly, or things like it before. I am really awkward looking, and girls take one look and they judge me, becuase of my looks. They see me as aprasite or a dangerous insect, which must be squashed quickly.

There are some cruel people out there, some that enjoy bringing down others just for the heck of it. I can assure you that you are not ugly, I hate that word to be honest. I have been called ugly several times before, even by my own family no less, and not once have they ever called me pretty or beautiful. Do I believe what they say? Unfortunately I still do a bit, but I've been trying my best to see past all that negativity and form my own positive outlook of myself.

True ugliness, like true beauty, comes from within. Even if you are, as you say, merely average-looking—which I suspect may be an example of the sort of self-deprecation toward which so many of us are inclined—you could never be as ugly as the person who made that comment to you. Imagine having to insult someone else in order to feel good about yourself. What a sad little man he must be.
