Do you care about your appearance, robots? When i was a kid, i used to be pretty ''handsome'' for a boy, and used to handle girls very well, make them laugh, had lots of partners for those school dances etc, i remember once all the girls in my class said they wanted to dance with me, sure it was a 20 kids class but still.
Sidetracking. So, i hit puberty when i was 11 and from there on it went downhill. My face skin got oily and with it came a lot of acne and pimples, my head got oily and with a lot of scurff. Throughout my whole teenagehood i had severe acne and pimples, and that got my self esteem good, i couldn't do what i used to.
Sidetracking again. The thing is, i got very ugly. And everyday i would tell myself how ugly i was. And it only got better, psychologicly for me, now that i'm 20. I still deal with small acne problems but i met good friends that consider me a person, remembers me when going out to places, etc. Thats been going on for 4 years now. And when going out to places, my face never bothered anyone. I always managed to do what i wanted to, talk what i wanted to, and people would hear me, comply.
I went to job interviews, people always treated me with respect, i got a job etc.
Granted i only kissed girls twice, and i'm still a virgin. But that never bothered me because i was more concerned with dealing with the problems so then i could get girls. But me being ugly never stopped me from anything.
Of course, being hygienic and keeping yourself clean is essential. But, if you're ugly, do you care about it? Does it stop you from doing anything you'd like to?
