Guys (and girls) tell me I'm pretty and I feel ugly most of the time. I was advised to look in the mirror every time I felt like shit and it made me feel better. My reason is because the people around me told me I was ugly and my authority figures punished me for "being pretty" for a long time. Deductive reasoning tells you that if multiple people tell you the same thing, they must be right. And by punished for being pretty, I meant that if some boy wanted to be my friend or if some weird man was looking at me inappropriately I'd have to sit through a lecture, be forced to wear clothes too big for me with a sticky pen in them (ouch!), be told how much I was hated, or be called fast which is basically being called a slut but I was a virgin then (obviously) and I'm still one now. I wouldn't say I look perfect though.

I feel like when you're actually pretty, you focus more on your looks. Because even if someones pretty they will always want to be more pretty. I've noticed people that are below average are usually more accepting of themselves because they know they're not attractive so they're not constantly trying to make themselves prettier because they know it's pointless.
Because we compare ourselves to bikini models. Celebreties etc. it might also come from what your man likes etc. you may know you look great in general but if you know your boyfriend has a stecific type (e. g curvy, slender, short, tall etc) and u dont fit that type you might feel insecure
Lol I saw em lot of whisper, it's cos that app is filled with people just looking for compliments lol they'd eben rate a whale straight outta Pacific a 10 and would tell her she's beautiful
Everyone gets cut down by some bitch/loser. You can have a perfect body and there'll always be people to criticize. So some girls are insecure because of that.

Because society is a f**king b*tch. Girls are extremely criticizing to one another as well which plays on self esteem.
Because they were probably ugly as kids and got picked on for it, and then BOOM... puberty blessed them.
The ones who are really good looking and don't see it? There is a pretty HIGH chance that they were severely bullied for their looks, impacted their self esteem A LOT, and then grow into adulthood still being insecure af...
Because there are people who put them down just for being beautiful
My girlfriend is gorgeous but she hates her face, I asked her if she actually thought so or was just saying.
She overexagerates but she actually doesn't like it. She says it's because there are way prettier girls.Because those girls get to see themselves in the morning without makeup.
They know they're beautiul, they're just seeking attention.
