what i hate about these conversations is when i say im unattractive then people try to explain attractiveness to me like im not a human being and ends up being a not so subtle dig about how i must not have tried hard enough. like in 40 years of being alive ive never accidentally put on the right shirt or washed my face. its really so fucking insulting even if it is not meant to be

look, ive tried. its okay. im not destined to be physically attractive or ever get unsolicited compliments. it is what it is. its not anyone's fault. being ugly really is a lived experience that people who havent lived it just really dont understand and the more i try to explain it to folks on the occasion it gets brought up the more i realize there is just this uncrossable barrier of understanding they simply will never get

That wasn't my intention at all I'm sorry. I only meant to say that being beautiful all the time is a lot of effort, even for the people that find it realistic.

No about of skincare is going to make someone with burn scars look like a model or whatever.
