Help please.

So lately I have felt really down. My self esteem used to be decent before I moved to a new school back in October. All of the girls on my team are absolutely gorgeous and it makes me feel really insecure. I was bullied back at my old school (it closed) so I was pretty insecure already. After a while, I made a bunch of friends and everyone likes me. But the thing is, I feel as if I secretly annoy everyone and that they all hate my guts. Another thing is, all of the stunning girls compliment me on my looks, but it is really hard for me to believe them. I have tried to force myself to think that way. And if I am so gorgeous and nice, why don't my crushes ever like me back? Ever since I was a child, I was that loser who never had any guys like her. When I transferred to my new school, I had a crush on this one guy when I first got there and he acted like he liked me but he would always date other girls. :( And now I like this other guy and he always looks at me but he never talks to me and I am afraid that he hates me. I am really starting to make myself miserable. Whenever I look in the mirror, I see a fat and hideous beast staring back at me. I am also afraid that no one will love me because I am too weird and annoying and crazy. :(

I feel the same way. But, its not like everyone in the school is making this master plan to trick you in to thinking that you are pretty even though really they think the opposite. Sorry if that sounded mean but...sometimes we need this boost to our mind about our feelings and the likeliness of what we think is the case. If that makes sense. And about that boy, guys are idiots. Wait for the perfect one and not just date everyone that you think is hot. How would that look? And there is one special guy that is waiting for you somewhere...just be patient.

Your not alone I felt the same way.

Don't change for other people, change for yourself.

If you think someone doesn't like you or that people are secretly being mean, then they aren't good people to begin with. Friends come and go. It's just a part of life. You will know which ones are keepers. You are still so young! The boys will come, don't stress. Be yourself/ be a good person and things will fall in place!
