You're attractive, Falkor. I'm probably affected by BDD as well (to some extent, at least), and I know what it's like to not see what others see, and to let it affect your state of mind and interaction with others.

But trust me, you have a symmetrical, pretty face.

It's funny because everything you want I have and everything you have, I want. Well it's funny in a really unhumorous way. I have natural really beautiful red hair. But, my face is atrocious. Red ALL the time and full of acne. Your complexion is absolutely beautiful and I'd give you my hair ANY DAY for that skin.

I just sound like an echo at this point but you really are quite lovely. When I clicked the pic I couldn't believe how beautiful you really were...I was diagnosed with BDD at one point. I don't think that was the correct diagnosis at all. But if you ever want to talk, I would enjoy talking to someone else who might feel similar to how I have.

yup you're ugly like the rest 8-9 billion people on this planet :D
Speaking seriously you look like no other girl on the street,and if i saw you sitting by the bar id chat you up :) now throw away ugly magazines,with bony models and actresses with implants and buy yourself nice set of make up and some bright red lipstick,and a body guard to keep men away from you.

You look like a model. You should model. You have a perfect bone structure, seriously. I think you're gorgeous and I have ridiculous standard of beauty.

You have BDD, like me. It's horrible, it interferes with literally every aspect of my life. I hope you get over it, I hope I will some day.

Hi Falkor!

First off, you're not ugly! I'm totally not saying that to make you feel better, it's just a fact.

Second - everyone has their own beauty, no one is "ugly". (Don't let THAT take away from the fact that you're aesthetically above-average, either)

Third, BDD IS hard to get over. It takes time. I'm getting over it as I type this, and have been only getting past it for the past few years. An ex of mine told me I was "beautiful" (and this was after we broke up) when I complained of my "ugliness". It felt like she was just saying it to cheer me up.

I can tell you that everyone sees 'beauty' in different ways. Thousands of models I have seen don't do a thing for me. Women I think are "beautiful" are "ugly" by people I've mentioned them to. It's all subjective!

BEAUTY is an opinion. So is ugliness (which doesn't exist).

I can tell you all of that, but to a person with BDD, it doesn't really make sense, or sounds like it doesn't apply to them.

Please take take the time and energy to realize that you're comparing yourself to a social acceptance of what typical beauty is (the "perfect" people on TV and movie screens and runways and magazine covers, all of whom have Photoshop, special effects and expert makeup artists behind them) and the stress will melt, you will start to love yourself, and the happiness you deserve will break over you :)

like TheTemp says you have BDD. I have it too. It does get better with time believe it or not. Sometimes I even fool myself into thinking I am beautiful, it feels really nice when it happens and it will for you too. Anyways..Looks are fleeting. focus on your inner beauty which you have a ton of and it is all that matters.

Exactly. And you ARE beautiful, and I am not the only one who thinks that way..

Well, I think these 6 pages summed it up quite nicely, I don't have much more to add. You have a beautiful face, perfect bone structure, very symmetrical, you could be a model. I envy you!

It's awful to hear you don't seem to see yourself the way we do. Goes to show what a horrible condition BDD is.

Don't worry, I also think I'm not good looking, physically speaking. I have a low forehead, small eyes (with little lashes), thin eyebrows, broad nose, and full lips. Sometimes I feel like a freak because I don't have the finer traits of the people around me. On the other hand, I think you are pretty; many girls would be willing to die for some of your facial traits. For example, you have the double eyelid naturally (I assume), and many women in Asia pay big bucks to get double eyelid surgery.
 
All i see is an sweet, attractive young lady!

What i think happens with BDD (having had it myself) is that all the MANY times in past that you've had those negative thoughts/feelings, well they get "etched" into the brain, and become permananet memories, associated with yourself, face, etc. So every time in future that say look in mirror, all those thoughts/beliefs & feelings come flooding back automaticly. Very hard to change/rid, but not impossible - just take much time, effort, years to do.

Don't say that about yourself. Everyone is beautiful. I used to think I was ugly too. We just focus on the negative and not the positive. I'd love to have your perfect skin. You know who you remind me of? Missy Peregrym.

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. :( I completely relate to those thoughts/feelings. For the record, though, I think you are beautiful!

I'm getting more and more ugly don't i ?

I'm at my job right now, and I just made two pictures (nobody sees it) I'm driving insane from insecurities, I want my whole face to become pretty ::(:

I look like a troll, and this time, I'm starting to look more and more like disgusting a troll.

I wish I could just hide in the toilet.

My face looks disgusting.

I can't stand my face.

Honestly, I really like you. You are beatiiful. Don't use makeup or piercings, also if you put your hair in a pony tail, it looks even more attractive, in my opinion. Your face is more of the shape that I like. Hard to explain. You are far from ugly. I really mean that.
