No matter what I feel ugly, even when people come to me and say

>Why does it bother me so much? Why do I need and live for validation from other people so bad?

Because you have anxiety and low self-esteem.

is my problem really that serious? isnt anxiety used just as often as depression when describing being sad/distressed?

OP, don't fall for buzzwords like "anxiety" or "body dysmorphia." Your feelings of inadequacy aren't the result of a mental disorder - rather, the "disorder" bit is a result of your inadequacies.

You're probably an above-average looking dude: you're experiencing bad faith due to the realization that you aren't EXTREMELY good looking, which is more common than you might think. It's a malicious psychological trap: the pill of perceived inferiority is hard to swallow. My advice would be to identify something you love to do - something not at all contingent upon validation / admiration from others - and do it relentlessly. If no such thing exists, you have a problem.

Ive had a few girls tell me Im attractive but recently this girl kind of rejected me and the only way I could think why she rejected me was because I was ugly

this led to me thinking every problem in my life was related to how I look and made me think I was ugly
