Unfortunately, if you are a girl sometimes guys may tell you that you are ugly. Nobody likes to be made fun of, right? Also, if you have low self-esteem, after such an episode you will probably wonder if the guy is right and you will start to feel uncomfortable. Are you really gonna let him get away with insulting you like that? And are you going to take this seriously?
Steps
Step 1. Consider who is telling you that you are ugly
Is he one of your best friends? Can you tell if he's just fooling you or is a guy who seems to hate you and insults you on a regular basis? Maybe he's your nasty ex-boyfriend or just an idiot walking by?
Step 2. If he's kidding you, a friendly tap and a joke back will do
If he's saying it with offensive intentions, you can either send him to that country or just ignore him.
Step 3. If you start wondering if the guy was really joking, take a look in the mirror, especially if it's not the first time someone has told you
Is there anything you are doing to hide your unique characteristics? Do you always bite your lip? Do you stare at the floor? Do you hide your face with your hair? Remember: everyone is beautiful in their own way, some inside, some outside, others both ways. Everyone has different ideas about beauty and not everyone sees it in the same things. Accept that you will always be judged by certain people for your appearance. It depends on you what they judge you for, a smile or a frown; Do you want to be obsessed with your looks or have so much fun that you don't care how you look?
Step 4. Don't let this ruin your life
A comment shouldn't get you down. Walk confidently and have fun.
Step 5. If it's your boyfriend, find someone else who isn't a complete idiot
Step 6. Be superior
If you understand that "ugly" is a weak and childish insult, respond in a polite and adult way. Thank whoever called you that and tell them they are very kind, then leave. People freak out when they can't get satisfaction.
Step 7. Remember that mature adults don't generally go around telling others they're ugly
As annoying and pathetic as it is, you won't have to put up with the childish behavior of certain people for your entire life.
Step 8. Answer in kind if you wish
Sometimes, saying something that makes the person who insulted you or others around you laugh can make you feel better. Some answers to the situation are: "I am ugly, you are immature: no one is perfect", "Yes, I am ugly, I take from my father … do you have any idea what your father looks like?", "Yes, I am ugly, I he knows I'm a little behind in sleep. What's your excuse? "," Yeah, I'm ugly. It's called acne / a birthmark / Treacher Collins syndrome / keloid (or whatever ailment you can proudly mention). C 'is a medical term for people who point out the most mundane obvious? ".
