Just because I have acne guys say I am UGLY, so why do they do it?

I dealt with acne for 13 years; cleared up in my early 20s only after some hefty medicines. Yes it sucks, I got so many women and men treating me like garbage because of my skin.

The best thing I did for myself was to get rid of the acne and pursue treatment. Now my problem is I'm getting looks of interest, but I have no self-esteem about my appearance, or I don't believe they are really interested since I have a long history of experiences telling me otherwise.

My advice is to not internalize what they are saying to you; that is what I did, and the road of recovery for that is much worse than just dealing with the acne medically. Remind yourself that acne is something you are going through, it is not who you are. If it lasts past your adolescence, make sure to see a dermatologist. You could get some help at the Doctor now too, but most people grow out of their acne. If you are taking steps to get treatments or inform yourself about the skin condition more, it's easier to blow off those people who give you grief. They are ignorant, and once you are armed with the knowledge you are doing everything possible to take control of the situation, their comments will not sting as much.

Take care :)

People who identify a person with their behavior, or appearance are superficial, and disrespectful. They don't respect you because they don't respect the fact God made you to be a wonderful part of His creation. God made you, He loves you. You may be going through a period where your body is adjusting to maturity, diet, or something else, but God, and those who respect you, see the beauty inside, and comment on that, not the superficial stuff.

No respect..

That is hell mean. In college guys will be nicer.

I think that's just REALLY BAD flirting. But I personally don't think it's attractive to have acne on your face, but I don't go around saying those kinds of things to people. Don't worry about, they're stupid, just shake it off.

That is F'ed up. I dealt with low self esteem in high school and stuff and hot harassed and teased soooooo bad by boys for years. All the girls thought I was the cutest thing ever but the guys were so freaking mean. Now I'm very well out of high school (im 22) and sometimes I run into those guys. Now for whatever reason they tell me how hot I am and blah blah blah.

The best advice I can give you is not to internalize what they say the one of the guys suggested to you on here. Also fake it til you make it. That's what I did. Look in the mirror and tell yourself you are beautiful every single day. Walk with your head held high. Even if you feel like you have no confidence fake it. Soon you will believe it and the confidence will come.

Also do research on acne treatments. My friend tried the clean and clear skin treatment and it worked for him so give it a go. Also make sure you are eating healthy and drinking lots of water. Also make sure not to touch your face unless necessary. The oil from your hands gets into your pores.

When I was younger I'm only 18 now! I had spots and people used to tease me about them and yeah it did annoy me and hurt at times but not for long I realized I'm better than them in many ways and that what goes around comes around! These people are just idiots acne goes but there idiotness won't! I started to wear make up and it gave me confidence and I'm not suggestion you should but it is a good way to cover acne and it doesn't give you spots although people say it does it doesn't I've been to the doctors the dermatologist and they told me it doesn't! And do you use facial washes etc. Because I did and it never helped at all and I gave up and stopped using it and just washed my face with water and nothing else and my spots went and I've clear skin since I'm 15 now! Any questions you have do ask me :)

If I were in your spot. And a guy said something like that to me. I'd probably get angry and do things that are just scary but really ignore them. Your acne isn't going to be on your face forever. Just concentrate on bigger things then JUST your face. If guys are saying shit to you. Don't talk to them and just mind your own business. If it really bugs you. Go up to one of the guy and kick him in the nuts (jk). But I'd do it.

It will go away eventually. I still have some acne, but it's not as bad when I was younger. I'm still only 18 though. Guys that say things like that aren't worth your time anyways. You deserve better.
