For Your Delectation And Delight...

So.

I cannot stress to you how dumb I feel writing this.
But I figure I'll get it over with.
Any of you who don't know me in real life don't know what I look like, and I haven't made it extremely clear to you til now, because I only realized it a few weeks ago.
I'm not an attractive person.
My mom pointed out some stuff about me and I realized that I'm not beautiful or pretty or even cute.
I don't know if I'd say 'plain', because of the afro I have going on, but I'm not exceptionally good looking.
I'm not skinny, I'm taller than most girls I know, my hair just speaks for itself, and I honestly don't look very good in the majority of clothes I own.
And if you think "Woah, when did YOUR self esteem hit rock bottom?" you can ask my mother, who told me that I was desperate and would date the first person who called me pretty because nobody usually would.
Thanks, Mom.
I haven't felt pretty for almost two weeks.
I'm sorry to anyone who I ever told in the span of said two weeks that I feel good or nice about the way I look on any given day.
I've gotten up every day, looked in the mirror, and noticed something wrong.
"Oh, my lips are chapped.
My hair's fuzzy.
My eyes really are too big."
