I feel like I'm going crazy

I told a female friend that I thought I was ugly, and she was (and still is) insistent that I am in fact good looking. I asked a couple of other female friends if that was true and they said yes. Apparently I also have beautiful eyes. It just really confuses me because I've kind of just assumed my ugliness due to getting rejected so much. I have a lot to think about... like wtf is wrong with me then?! XD

Sorry, I know there's no reason for anyone to want to read this. A heavily ingrained aspect of how I see myself being challenged is throwing me off.

So it's been a few days...you feeling handsome yet?

I say that knowing my own struggles with feeling beautiful. It's tough. I rarely feel average at best, even if someone compliments me.
And I know that it's not easy to develop self confidence and a positive self image when it comes to beauty.

I"m hoping that you are doing alright. :)

@Scribbles I don't feel completely ugly any more (although that was a conclusion I'd managed to rationalise my way into), but I do still feel like being fat might as well be the same thing.

@KiwiDan Some people don't see size as ugly. I know people of all shapes and sizes. I love them all and see them as beautiful.
