Do you think you're ugly?

I get the same response as you. A couple of my online friends have said I look cute. Of course, I don’t believe them. Cute is just another word for nice. Nice is what they are trying to be. They’re not going to say, “Yeah, I agree with you, you’re really ugly.”

My ugliness is exacerbated by my sleep disorder (insomnia). Currently, I feel I'm the ugliest man on earth due to severe lack of sleep and depression. My eyes are very dark and ugly. OK, my eyes are dark by nature, but in the past when I slept better, I wasn't THIS ugly. It seems as if I'm getting uglier every day, I don't understand. I'm not only a socially anxious coward, but also ugly. Honestly, I'm only alive because I believe in God. My religion is keeping me "alive", but my life is utterly worthless.

I'm naturally dark under the eyes too, Argamemnon. No matter how much sleep I get, I always have shadows there! Being naturally extremely pale with dark hair and shadows under my eyes, I used to get called Morticia and stuff a lot, plus concerned (or nosy?) people asking me whether I'm ok because I look ill. I'm also quite thin, so I basically look like a Tim Burton cartoon come to life, lol! I don't mind that because I love Burton's style, but I do get tired of people asking if I'm anaemic/vegetarian/ill/an insomniac etc etc... 
I even had a group of giggling girls at school ask me if I had AIDS once! I was about 14 at the time, and they wanted to know if I'd been "sleeping with the wrong people"... *sigh*
...anyway, just to show you what I mean, check out the eye circles in this pic! You're not alone hon
They do look worse because my head's tilted down, but bear in mind that I'm actually wearing concealer under my eyes there - they'd look even worse without it, lol! (And I got the Morticia comments waaay before I started dressing like that, by the way!)

Sometimes I feel ugly and sometimes I'm ok with myself. I try not to obsess over it too much, but it's really hard not to in this society where we're surrounded by photoshopped images of perfection, driven by cynical commercial enterprises who want to make us all feel ugly and unworthy in order to pick our pockets
I actually hate how people look in commercials and advertisements. The girls always look odd to me. They have a completely symmetrical appearance. They don't look like they have any errors with their body. This probably sounds weird, but I just don't like that look. Hmmm... this probably makes no sense and everyone is going to think I'm weird now.

You are extremely beautiful (your face, your hair etc.). As to me; I'm not only dark under my eyes, but in my eyes too, lol. But then I'm from the Mediterranean. The problem is my severe lack of sleep coupled with depression and anxiety, which makes me much uglier than I am (not that I'm handsome)...I'm naturally dark under the eyes too, Argamemnon.

BTW, some of my relatives are extremely good looking. My uncle's daughter is a gorgeous blonde girl with blue eyes, for example! She is absolutely stunning. It baffles me, since I don't look anything like her, lol. I have very dark hair and eyes. We are related, but she is gorgeous while I'm ugly (well that's what I think about myself anyway).
Also, none of my relatives are single. They are all healthy good looking people with wives/husbands. I don't know why I'm like this. I'm such a nice person (I really am), I don't think I deserve this :

That is one deliciously evil look on your face. And that loop around your middle finger makes it look like it's really long. Like an aye-aye, minus the nocturnal creepiness factor.
I always used to think there was something really wrong with me. Nobody would talk to me, even when I went out of my way to befriend them. In school I was always one of the top students (at least before depression) and shy. So maybe people felt intimidated by me? It's not like I would use abnormally large words in regular conversation or anything. So dating was obviously out of the question. But I guess it could have been worse. I could have been bullied instead of just being ignored.
Being the rational being that I am, somewhere along the line I began looking for the problem. After all, I was smart enough, nice enough, and friendly enough to have friends. So why didn't I? After going down the list, I figured there was just something about me that turned people away.
So do I think I'm ugly? No. But I am balding, overweight, pale, and severely lacking in self esteem. So maybe by society's standards I am ugly. But I never thought I was particularly handsome, so I don't think there's a problem. I'd rather think I was uglier than I actually was than think I was hot when I was nothing special. At least this way I can occasionally receive the "you're not too bad looking" compliment.
Oh, and Argamemnon, I'm also cousin to several real hotties. Even though we're related, it always baffles me when they hug me at family parties.

I think I have a nice face. (don't look at my picture it doesn't do me justice lol)
Other than that I'm skinny and short...A dangerous combination
I also used to really slouch a lot all the time, even when standing or walking. And I wouldn't swing my arms when I walked. Luckily my brother, being the great guy he is, pointed that out to me so now I stand up straight and swing my arms when I walk so I look better lol

I fully agree, they almost look like androids or something. So creepy and un-human looking.

I suspect people think i have a pretty ugly personality, but i don't think i'm actually ugly. In my opinion our anxiery is much more triggered by our personalities than by our looks. I've seen plenty of ugly people who seem confident enough in their own skins (damn, some even have super hot gf's!).

Haha. Yes I want a sexy android girl - at the rate I'm going I'll be 60 before I get it together enough to handle an actual relationship. At which point it'll way be too late for a real girl. But by then the androids should be pretty far along.
Which makes me think of this song...
Shit, youtube deleted the video. Dresden Dolls, Coin-Operated Boy. It's one of my favorite videos. So sweet. (just ignore the people that say it's about a vibrator
)I really don't know for sure with me, like most people have said, I can sometimes see myself and think I'm really ugly (especially looking in the mirror, and photos), and I can sometimes think I look fine, but then when I think about the fact I've never had any interest from girls and I've never been told by them, I think there must be something wrong with how I look, when everyone else does seem to get that.

As you can see from my newly updated avatar, I have an ugly face. At times I feel that it brings me much anxiety in social situations. But I'm slowly getting comfortable with being hideous and I now wear sexier clothing.

This reminds me, one time I was at the mall with some friends and some random girl had a photography class project to take like 150 pictures of people smiling. Of course she asked to take my picture. I'm horrible at faking a smile, so i was reluctant. Well something ended up making me smile/laugh and girl was quick on the draw and took a picture. Well I saw her about 2 weeks later and she had picked my picture to be the one that went up on the wall in the school... I had mixed feelings about that, I felt good and thought maybe I don't look as bad as I thought, but also couldn't get it out of my head that maybe there was some other motive to it. Something funny like something in my teeth, odd smile, etc.
