How can I make myself pretty?

I am a 13 year old girl and an ugly one at that! All my friends say I'm not ugly but it's hard to believe them when all the guys prefere them to me! I really like this one boy, his name is Grant and although we are good friends he knows that in the past I have liked him and now he know's I still do. Every time I tell a boy I like them they freek out and one boy even ignored me for 8 weeks well probably 10 now. I have freckles and hate them I want to know how to get them less noticable and I want a tan but don't know the easiest way to get one. Can you help?

I've known all kinds of girls, with all kinds of looks. I've seen one guy think a girl is ugly, and another guy fall head-ove-heals in love with her. I've often said that the only difference between an average girl and a gorgeous bombshell is a little 'foof' and attention.

Not everyone can attract the opposite sex on-demand, but that rarely has anything to do with beauty. I've known a few unbelievably beautiful girls who could never attract a guy just because they were TOO pretty, and the guys were sort of afraid of them.

It's OK to look for ways to improve your personal appearance, but don't let jealous be what motivates you. If you want to be beautiful, and I mean TRULY beautiful, you have to feel good, plain and simple. I've known a lot of very ordinary girls that always had guys flocking around them just because they were so alive and charming. They didn't buy expensive clothes, and most of them wore no makeup at all.

The guys you want to be chasing you are not the guys that can't tell the difference between real skin and fake makeup. The guy you want is the one that sees what YOUR beauty is like. Most guys easily fooled by fake makeup, and they aren't the ones you want.

Believe it or not, clothes and makeup aren't usually what makes people beautiful. It's FEELING beautiful that makes people beautiful. Sometimes a new skirt, or a new kind of shampoo can do that for you, but remember that it's not the 'stuff' that makes you look good, it's feeling like you look great that does it.

You say you think that you are ugly. Well, I'll tell you this, to the one who loves you, you couldn't be more wrong. I've seen some girls that really weren't pretty at all, but something about them was sooo attractive. The way they walked, they way the talked, or maybe just the way they acted towards me just was extremely appealing. And, strange as it may seem, I couldn't stop looking at them.

Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder, but there's a lot of advantages to being imperfect. I knew this one girl that looked like she had a broken nose. She'd never get on the cover of a magazine, but to me she was irresistable. I couldn't stop looking at her. I spent all day memorizing her face, she was DIFFERENT from the other girls, and she had her OWN brand of beauty that was completely irreplacable.

In short, it really doesn't matter what you look like. Enjoy the life, the face, and the body that you have, and the other good things of life will come to you naturally. Perfection isn't the goal, happiness is. Being imperfect is part of being human, and being unhappy sometimes is normal. Make the best of what you've got, and enjoy it as much as you can.

If you do that, beauty will come, in it's own way, in YOUR own way. Don't try to force it, just try to accentuate it.

13 is way too young for make-up, if that's what you're thinking about - don't make the mistake of so many girls who start early and screw up their skin for life! Youth is your beauty now, use it while you have it. Freckles are cute and not everybody has them, so the rest are just jealous. Why do you think boys freak out because of the way you look? Boys at 13 are usually very nervous around girls just because they're trying to prove themselves as men, they're pretty funny actually. They're probably wondering why girls don't talk to them. They're probably wondering if they should work out to look better, like you're wondering if you're pretty. But the truth is, none of this really matters and you guys shouldn't make your lives harder. Just like each other for who you are and don't worry too much about appearance or stereotypes - appearance can be faked with make-up and clothes, but who you are is unique and nobody can copy that kind of beauty. If they don't see it they just need to grow up.

just remember outside there is one who loves you.you so special
JUST EMAGINE YOU HAVE THE IMAGE OF GOD!!!

Honey, relax! If guys are liking your friends over you because of looks, are they really the kind of guys you want to be hanging out with? Sounds kind of shallow! You've got plenty of time to grow into your looks and realize you're fine the way you are, lots of guys don't like it when girls wear too much makeup so take your time before experimenting with it. Also remember that everybody is attracted to different looks, my best guy friend thinks freckles on a girl are downright adorable, other guys think little quirks like that too, it's all different. You're unique, don't try to be like everyone else and wait until you're a little older before you start worrying about what guys are liking- they're all immature and dumb at that time anyway. Be confident, and smile :-D

I agree w/ lyubopitca, u'r 2 young 4 make-up! you so many years. 2 grow beautiful, maybe it's not yet u'r tym 2 bloom bt atleast you cn improve urself, bt you must bliv in d saying 'beauty comes from inside' if you bliv in urself & od you bliv u'r beautiful you will nstantly become beautiful. & bowt that guy, don't rush into anytng, u'r still young you knw, der are still many guys 2 come. & rmembr if s guy rilly lyks you it shud b bec. of u'r prsonality & not your looks, he will pursue you no matter what.

it's already there in the other comments..but listen when your friends ssy your pretty..you mostly are

every bosy is pretty in there own different ways the boy you fancy is probebly scared to say that your pretty beacause there is not one boy who will not think your pretty in your own way that is if theyy are a good boy
I found out that I am pretty with my smile

Girl everyone is pretty in there on way! I am 13 years old and some boys call me ugly. I just ignore them because usually girls that are called ugly end up being the most prettiest girls ever and Grant is goint to want you so bad. The same thing happened through my family and now everyone gives us complements. And freckles are hot I wish I had them. If you have any questions you can chat with me on Fun mail me!!! -Bre

Well I'm 7 stone. 5ft 2 tall, look two month pregnant. Have 34A sized breasts. Basically my stomach is bigger. I come out in outbreaks all over my face when I've been run down. I have a broken nose which has made my face uneven. I knocked my teeth out when I was a child which has left them look 'beaver' like. and I think I am ugly. I don't even have the confidence to wear nice tops to go out in or a short skirt with shoes, or even so a dress as they always show my pregnant look and here is a picture of me http://www.geocities.com/villainisaacs click on webmaster. Many people say I'm pretty but I've been put down so much in my life I don't believe them, its become natural.

You look pretty cute to me.

Aww thank you. But its the same. I don't think I am. I hate myself. Grown up with that feeling of myself and now can't seem to get out of it.

I'm 13 years old and I ware makeup I dont put a lot on but it helps me feel better about it I think I'm ugly but to my friend once agin I'm not so maybe try makeup or try getting new clothes sumthing anything that will make you feell more like you. hope I helped - reiley

Hey Girl, I just checked out your picture and you're down-right gorgeous... You know what I realized? We girls tend to break down all the components that make up our faces and find the worst qualities about each one... the fact is that people look at the whole picture, not if you have a crooked tooth! So, you look beautiful to me and just maybe you're a humble person - which is a great attribute! The most important thing is that positive attitude can make everything seem good... seriously, start viewing yourself in a more positive light, look at what you like about yourself, your personality etc. and then your self confidence will boom up and people will feel more attracted to you. The secret to life is a smile and a bit of confidence and you're good to go!
I wish you luck...

If those boys say they don't like you,
then dont like them,
you are pretty the way you are,
I don't think I am pretty but I still live with my self and try my best to be as pretty as I can

You cant get a tan because if you do you get more freckles. I would say try to work you're skin because you were born to be beautiful in you'e skiin. If the boys dont like you than dont pay attention to them because do you really want a guy to like you for what you look like and not who you are? It may sound stupid now but when you grow olderyou'll understand. I should because my bestfriends are the hottest girls in school and im the 3rd wheel bestfriend that just shadows them. But then this guy in my grade noticed me for who iam and this wasnt just any guy this was the hottest guy. So you just have to wait. You cant push time to go faster. You never know maybe one day when you're older all the guys will be drooling over you. Maybeyou're just a late bloomer. Wait for a guy to come around and like you for hu you are because it will be worth it. It may not seem clear now but you'll understand. Its just a matter of time. and do you really want to use make-up and ruin you're face by the age of 16. NOOOOOO you dont cause thats the time you bloom and all the people/uys will start noticing you.

All you have to do is put on some gloss and light light light eye shadow it will bring out your natrul beauty but DO NOT OVERLOAD you will look HIDIOUS and wear your colors

EX:my eyes are blue and my hair is blonde and I wear light blues and light colurs

hi, I would just like to say that I have freckles too and hate them, so my advice is to cover-up with sunscreen everyday and even better buy a protective tinted moisturiser, a natural touch of colour while you moisturise and protect you skin from the sun, its not like thick foundation it is very light on the skin, also if you feel ugly think about what it is exactly , maybe you need braces , a nice smile is beautiful, or maybe wearing a rose quartz necklace will help.

You are both so young, you'll regret making changes to make a boy happy. Be yourself. Talk to him, be his friend, win him over with your personality. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Show him you have an amazing personality and he will see that when he looks at you. Good luck.

HUNNY YOU ARE WAY TOO YOUNG TO BE CALLING YOURSELF UGLY, WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE I THOUGHT I WAS HIDIOUS AND I WAS.......BUT ITS OKAY BECAUSE IN A COUPLE YEARS YOU WILL BE PRETTY I WAS SO UGLY AT THAT AGE THAT IS THE FUNNY LOOKING AGE . 12-14 IS UGLY YEARS AND THEN IT GETS BETTER CAUSE YOUR BOOBS GROW AND YOUR BODY STARTS TO FORM INTO A LADY LISEN..... I was ugly now look at me ... so dont speak too soon darlin because it will get better, just stay in shape or you will regret it. lol

Growing up I never thought myself good looking. I was bookish, overweight and had no social skills. I was a social pariah, even the unpopular kids wouldn't hang out with me. In college things got a little better; in HS everyone thought I was just weird but in college some people thought I was interesting. No girls were interested in me in HS but I started to date in college.

When I meet up with my HS classmates decades later many of the popular, good-looking, star athletes didn't do so well after school. Many of them were married many times, in poor health, didn't have good careers, etc. It is like they peaked in high school and it was all downhill after that.

Just don't be in such a hurry. Take care of yourself and do whatever you are interested in and give things time to develop.

hiya hunny I am 14 and well feel the same. All my mates think I am pretty but I dont believe them, I always want to be pretty and it gets me down every day! some people I know are really nice looking adn they look down at me as I aint as pretty. I get really depressed about stuff like this.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN. I am a sophmore in highschool and I have some very pretty friends. When we go out with guys, all of the guys prefer them over me and it makes me very sad. I have not had a REAL boyfriend EVER, but I had 'boyfriends' in 5th, 6th, and 7th grades (though I would not call them boyfriends). Now that I am in highschool, I WANT a boyfriend, but no boy wants me. I am 5'6, thin, brown hair and brown eyes.. but apparently I dont look attractive. I try to be fun and cool around guys and other girls and just be myself, but NO guys like me. They like me as friends (I guess) but like other girls better as friends and BETTER to date.. but never me. (but all of the girls love me as friends) I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DOOOO! please help.

You know what I can tell you you shouldnt diss your self and tell yourself you are ugly couse you probly aint you want to see ugly well look at fat bastered for a chance you know that movie austin powers lol now hes ugly lol.............
And if you really like this guy dont try and hide things that you are think about it if you did hide what you are then he wouldnt be loveing who you are hell be loving somethin els.. I think you should wait and stay the way you are and trust me somebody will love you for you... And if you really want to change yourself just go to a tanning bed you know at a hair cutting place....... Good luck but remember what I said...... Sammie

Sweetie I have freckles and they are a sign of beauty.You are only 13 your beauty has not yet arrived in its full affect.SOOOOOO don't worry about it so much true beauty lies within.
PS, Tanning will only cause freckles to spread. Love yourself and others will too

I am just as old as you and I used to feel the exact same way but now I know better than that. I never really thought I was especialy pretty or ugly just normal. Untill this one day in sixth grade. all my friends thought I was pretty and would be a good model so they started asking everyone if they thought I would be a good model and one boy said oh god no! maybe a male and I started freaking out about my appearance and started putting on a ton of make up. I couldnt sleep because I thought about it all night. then one day I realized that I wasnt the most popular and pretty girl in my grade but if Jesse doesnt like the way I look Screw him im too good for him and pretty in my own way!

Good Luck!
Ally G.

first things first, no matter what....you are pretty!!!!! dont let anyone elsa tell you different!!!!
freckles are beautiful!!!! and when the sun gets on them and they come out...well there just stunning!!!! dont try and hide them or get rid of them!!!!
you are the way you look and you should accept that and work with what you have!!! if people are going to b shallow enough and judge you by the way you look....then you shouldnt associate urself around those people,, you shud associate urself around people with substance!!!!
your only young and you shudnt be worring about all of this superficial stuff its a waste of such great energy!!

hey I can help you look pretty, FIRST GET A NICE FOUNDATION TO COVER YOUR FRECKLES AND GET A NICE HAIRCUT IF YOUR MUM ALLOWS YOU...WEAR A MINI-SKIRT TO SCHOOL AND PUT LIP-GLOSS ON. TRY TO PUT SOME EYE-LINER AND TRY CURLING YOUR HAIR...TO ATTRACT THE BOY TRY TO BE NICE TO HIM AND DONT TALK TO HIM FOR ABIT THEN HE WILL RELISE THAT YOU REALLY LIE HIM AND THEN YOU CAN ASK HIM OUT...MAKE YOUR TIE SHORTER IF YOU WEAR A TIE TO SCHOOL AND TAKE YOUR MOBILE TO SCHOOL TO TAKE PICTURES...LOOL I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU..

well im 14 and if your gunna start to apply makeup make sure its something thats good for your skin like eye linner brings out your eyes and a coverup that wont bring you blemishes. make sure you wash your face before applying and wash your face everynight.
you can use a fake tan but very little or you will turn orange.
oor, if your mom will take you under adult supervision she can sighn you up to go tanning.
thats what I do.
make sure once again if your going to apply makeup never make it look like you applyed it in the dark and dotn use so much make it look like its natural.

I need help can I ave advice please

my boyfriend always says he loves me but when he was with my bro and hiz m8z he was showing off and not saying it and then my bro mate sed look at mi bird and then he sed what you think of her he sed fit infront of me and I just slapede him and told him never to come near me again what do I do

Do you really think your friends would lie to you straight to your face? If yes then they arent friends at all! But they're NOT lying when they tell you that you are beautiful! you need to listen to them.
if you FEEL beautiful it will MAKE you beautiful. for instance, if you get a new clothing item or accessory or something little like that and you feel beautiful with that then my advise is to go with what you feel pretty with. I cant describe it in words that good but im doing my best :]
you should also go for the guys who dont always go for the pretty girls because then they are only in the relationship for the hottness of the girl and not so much their personality !!

im 13 aswell and I went through the same problem last year. I tried to make myself look as pretty as I could, with all sorts of different make up and now my skin isnt so great! let that be a lesson teaching you that the best look is your all natural look. your beautidful the way you are. if you THINK your too fat or anything like that, dont change because theres nothing wrong in the first place. your beutiful no matter what ANYONE says! Remember that ...

'you can't make yourself pretty, you already are pretty' this is what I told my friend a few weeks ago when her boyfriend dumped her and she asked me the same question. you have to feel your beauty from the inside and it will show on the outside. if your going to use makeup, use very little and always wash your face before and after using it. become satisfied with yourself and be confident with the way you look. listen to your friends when they tell you that your pretty, not only is it an ego booster it will help you feel more beautiful, but don't get too cocky becasue that can ecome a bad thing. remember beauty starts from within yourself.

ok well im 13 too and I have some ugly friends...and im just telling you that the truth is sad but true... your friends are happy when you think that your ugly they may not want to be but they are because like im pretty and know it and my friends that rnt think that they're ugly and it makes me feel better about myself and allows me to get all the guys!!! so all you need to do is either live with your ugly self or BUY MAKE UP...make up is amazing... it works wonders... chanel preferable... but w/e and just so you know if your ugly sometimes you cant do anything about it so im sorry that you were born such an ugly bitchy person
xoxo

well... some people look good with them... I dont personally..I hate mine...but you might look better with them than without =] x

How to make yourself look pretty?

1. Smile
2. Be clean... showered, washed, hair brushed, etc.
3. Choose clothes that complement your natural complexion color and body type.
4. Be friendly... not overly friendly, but nice.
5. Ask people questions about themselves.
6. Write me.

look first you need to come down 2coned you need to listen to me im self conce to so my friend said this im going to say it in the most gentel way possible okay? fist get a grip so some boys dont like you big deal who cares what they think love isnt about the perfect person its about seeing an imperfect person perfectly sorry if I was harsh

look first you need to come down 2coned you need to listen to me im self conce to so my friend said this im going to say it in the most gentel way possible okay? fist get a grip so some boys dont like you big deal who cares what they think love isnt about the perfect person its about seeing an imperfect person perfectly sorry if I was harsh

if you really like a boy there is no problem with a guy knowing you like them and if it ruins your friendship was that really worth the risk of getting a boyfriend?? think hard about that and if the boy doesn't like you thats all you can do don't force it on them. with your freckles you can take care of them with some simple base and blush.

you can be bretty with out wearing to much makeup just wear mascara and some light shiney eye shadow not to over powering and some like blush you can wear some base to cover up your freckles but I don't recomend it. as for boys just be yourself if they don't like you for you then who cares. get clothes that are cute and fits your personality and compliments your body shape. as for the tan you can buy Jergens tanning lotion it is very mild and you don't have to be in the sun and it doesn't make you orange I have freckles and they don't bother me but everyone has there own ideas. that lotion is not over powering and it will mildly tan you over a couple of weeks. I hope I helped you 13 is a little you to really care what they think tho.

13 is NOT too young for makeup. I wear makeup, and I am 14. but just be confident and show some skin, but dont be a slut. it seems as though guys like sluts, they dont, they just want them. (especially at our age) guys respect girls that flirt but dont sleep around. go to your nearest drugstore, pick up some mascara, eyelash curler, clear nailpolish (manicured hands are gorgeous) tinted lipgloss, and concealer (for your freckles, I love mine!!) and dont forget curling mouse, and you just get out of the shower, scrunch your hair with a dime sized glob and then wrap your hair in a towel until the second you leave the house.
and dont forget mints.

message me on
and say if it worked or not XD

I'm 13 too. and the guys do the same thing to me. they always say I'm ugly and then later I find out that they actually like me!! I'd say get some spray on tan. I've used it before and it works great, but just make sure you put it on evenly. otherwise just go out in the sun and go play sports, go swimming and lay on a raft. but put on sunscreen 15spf or lower than you'll get tanner without completely being red for a few days. good luck!!
kate

yes, sometimes boys will say mean things to you when they actually like you but they're embarrassed to say so.

kaliegh

im the same age as you and have had issues that are exactly the same honestly I think freckles are cute on some pple I have learned that people are prettier with less makeup on it makes them look natral try some nude colors on your eyes and right below your eyebrows put a littly white or a very light color it brings out any color of eyes

hope I helped

-curious lover

1. you NEVER tell a boy you like him.. there imature especially at age 13. they like girls and are drawn to them if you are harder to get. or play harder to get. the number 1 key is to act confident. not cocky. but feel/ act beautiful. guys like that. tease em a bit. dont show that your flutterd by them. be open and outgoing crack a joke. laugh givem huge hugs but not intimate.
If you havent plucked your eyebrows do so. wear some mascara.. give yourself some side bangs.. and dont wear guy cltoerhs dont wear short skirts either be classy. Thats it! make sure not to do stuff with guys ( fool around) because you will end up getting hurt and theyl just think of you as an easy girl.. So if anythign get in a relationship and wait it out!
DONT WEAR EYELINER it looks sleazy .. and often gross and unattractive on younger girls.
As for your freckles. there frkn beautiful you may not think so but they are.. a good way to makem look less noticible.. get a cover up that makes your face NOT ORANGE or cover up looking but natural ask somoene at a shoppers drug mart. And bronzer for the cheeks.. you can go to a tanning salon.. if not get a self tanner when you start looking orange STOP. or wait it out till the summer GOOD LUCK BABE!

they are soo right. your beautiful and I can see that even without a picture. you have character and you should be proud. honestly I just filled out a question like urs a minute ago. then I found these comments and I feel a lot better about myself. you should too. beauty is inside and if you realize that then you ar ethe most beautiful of them all.

Hun My advice? DO NOT LISTEN TO dariajelonek !!
Whats worse than being ugly? BEING A CLONE!!
I'm not trying to be a complete arse but listen, if you want to be loved you have to love yourself. With a negative attitude, comes a negative reflection. How can you expect someone to think you're pretty if you don't have confidence in yourself? 'It doesn't matter what you look like! I mean if you have a hunchback, just throw a little glitter on it, honey, and go dancing!' Because you can be the most gorgeous person ever but if you're not confident and you don't believe in yourself..well you're nothing. I think freckles are adorable and if you're so worried about them use a little cover up. Do things for yourself not just to be accepted/liked by others.

NO GIRL IN THIS WORLD IS UGLY! is that clear?? ..good now if you want to dress it up a bit put on some apple bottom jean's, ugs shoe's, and a mini jacket and curl your hair, and press a LITTLE bit of powder over your freckel's (d wich I probalby didnt lol, good luck any way.

Whatever you do-DO NOT TAN!! Not only is it bad for your skin, but it will only increase the darkness and number of your freckles! I think self confidence goes a long way in how pretty other people percieve you to be. If you spend all your time agonizing over the attention your friends are recieving instead of focusing on what you are projecting with your facial expressions and body language, nobody will find you pretty or even interesting!
And I disagree with those who say you are too young for makeup. I always had a pale complexion and a little blush went a long ways when I was 13. I think a little blush, some pretty, sheer lip gloss, and some lightly tinted mascara would do wonders for your self esteem. Remember, beauty comes from within so if you feel pretty you will project pretty! There is not one single definition of pretty-it is your differences that make you stand out from the crowd-not your similarities. So be yourself, your beautiful, wonderful self!

damm.. girl NO you are gorgeous!

hey there gal... I'm 13 too... and I don't think your ugly... maybe we haven't started to bloom yet... don't get to upset k? just enjoy your life and have fun... and your beautiful!!!

don't freak out, I am 13 too,all the guys hate me and call me flat chest, no biggie,. At least we don't got lots of acne, I have a few acne scars, but thats it. = )

ok I feel the same way but the most important thing is be confident in your self you are beautiful in at least 1 persons eyes most likely more than 1. but im 14 and im white I go to a mostly black school I have nothing against blacks but I am sometimes picked on for wearing make but make makes me feel comfortable... so try some make like conealer, eye liner, mascara...

I know EXACTLY what you mean all my friends always have boyfriends and I never do it sucks except unlike you I blame my weight not my looks but dont let anyone see that you think your ugly because then they will think you have low self confudence so just hid it and never ever tell a guy that you like them and since your thirteen then guys are still imature so let them tell you

SWEETY!..
ALL I CAN SAY IS HATE IT OR LUV IT YOU
CANT CHANGE YOURSELF!..
SO WHY NOT LOVE IT!..
HATiNG YOUR SELF ISNT GETTiNG YOU ANY WHERE!..
DONT TRY TO CHANGE YOURSELF FOR A BOY!..
because YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE YOURSELF
AROUND HIM!..
WHEN THE RiGHT GUY COMES YOU WILL KNOW...
because HE WILL ACCEPT YOU FOR YOU!>

Can I say to the first comment that im 13 and wear makeup with personly I think is fine as long as you wash it off at night and dont pile it on your face
anywayz if I didnt wear makeup my (non friends) would probably tease me like they do too many peeps
but you cant change urself
and a boy should love you 4 the way you are not for the way you look...
Hope it helps (a bit)
XxX

Kayleigh, I personally think freckles are the cutest thing ever! Don't be ashamed of them, you may hate them, but trust me, there are guys out there that find them irrisistable. Infact, I wish I had some sprinkled across my nose like my little sister does. As far as being 13 and thinking you're ugly, 13 is a really awkward stage...I didnt start knowing how to do my makeup and actually looking 'pretty' until my junior year in high school, though I started wearing it around your age.
I realize the preassures of makeup and looking good, I dont have the best of skin and I've always been on the heavy side, and overly shy and I thought I was ugly. Then, once I broke out of my shell, guys were coming at me left and right, but it wasnt because I wear expensive clothes (thrift store shopper!) or a lot of makeup, and it certainly wasnt for my curves, it was because I was confident, and confidence is the best beauty product at all. You're only as good as you beleive you are, so think deep inside yourself and believe you're beautiful, and trust me...the difference will be a lot more noticable than a little blush.

Oh my gosh are you my clone? Im just like you. I have freckles and boy problems with this guy jared that im really into but he COMPLETLY ignores me because all his dumb friends told him I like him and I guess it freaks them out that I like him. It makes me feel really self-consious. I have cried many times over him and im really crushed by him...but I still like him...I wish he liked me back.

You poor lil girl. I was the same at school. Try to get into make up and when you sunbake just use baby oil it's helps heaps.

I feel the same way but you may be not the pretiest girl around now but when you do your hair eyebrows...and so on you will turn out so prettey that he will turn out falling for you!! I like this boy 2 but to him im just his friend. so dont worry you have a couple more years left!! and you will be GORGEOUSS

luv ya ♥

diana xoxo (im ugly to but wait till we grow older!! ) (I cant wait to see the look on their faces lol)

you cant make yourself pretty.

you look so pretty.
but if you want to wear makeup I dont think your to young at all. im 13 and I wear makeup but not tons.

well you shouldnt do it if your going to make everyone else happy then the boy really didnt love you.if he really loves you he would except you for who you are no matter what you look like.beauty is skin deep babygirl because I use to feel the sameway but you want to know what I always heard ..the right guy is out there for you but dont fight to find him let him find you and trust me when its time then he will show

Boys mature later than girls and don't know how to respond when I pretty girl, like you, says something to them. Don't use foundation, it feels pastey and can cause bad skin diseases.
FunMail me!

I have no clue what you look like, but you are probably very pretty..
but sence I dont know what you look like, if your hair is parted down the middle..
part it to the side,,
it give you a little Ummpf!
lol.. but yea...

You can make yourself prettier by boosting your self esteem. Most of the quote unquote knockouts at your age look like hags by the time they hit thirty. I can honestly say I wasn't the most attractive at 13. Am I fierce now? Oh Yeah!
You have to realize that beauty trends mean nothing to who or what you are. The most important thing is working on your intellectual and emotional strengths. What is most important to develop at this point are your strengths and your self confidence will follow. Boys and Men find self confidence and common sense the most attractive traits. Those are the women they end up marrying when they mature. Not the twits. I suggest reading the book, 'All The Rules.' Good luck chica.
