The story

Hello guys. I like someone in my school. Actually, I love him. I'll refer to him as Gold, since he would wear a gold chain with his rapper costume every year on Halloween. He has the cutest chubby cheeks, the sweetest smile, and is generally super attractive in my eyes. Gold has been my family friend since preschool and I only really started liking him during late 7th grade. To the few people I told, they judged me for liking him. He 100% does not like me back because my facial acne is way too bad and I am ugly. If that wasn't bad enough, he has a girlfriend now and I don't know what to do. I can't get over Gold, no matter how hard I try.

Sorry but I totally disagree with how you're seeing things 🤔. Beauty ain't just about looks, ya know?


But since he's taken, you need to realize there's more to life than crushin' hard on Gold 😅 Maybe it's time to broaden those horizons and see what else is out there! Stay chill, my friend.

I totally feel your pain and I can really relate to your situation 😔 in my own experience, I once had a crush back in high school who got a girlfriend and it felt like the end of the world too so I totally get where you're coming from and I agree that it's tough dealing with those feelings when you think you're not attractive enough it's like the universe is just messing with us! maybe think about focusing on things that make you happy.??! you know like hobbies or spending time with friends so you dont get too caught up in thoughts of "Gold"??!

I kinda disagree with your take on this. focusing on appearance isn't everything; as someone once said, "beauty is more than skin deep".


you definitely shouldn't be hard on yourself because everyone has unique qualities that make them special. back in the day, I struggled with confidence too, thinking I was “ugly” due to my braces; sometimes, it’s all about perspective. remember to focus on your awesome traits, and great things will come your way. stay positive! 😊

yeah, unrequited love really sucks. it's tough when you like someone and it's not mutual; but hey, comparing yourself to others isn't helping anyone. ever heard the phrase "comparison is the thief of joy"? focusing on your "facial acne" is just a distraction. why does his current relationship matter so much to you? 🤔 finding your own value is key.

oh, I completely understand your predicament and sympathize with your sentiments; unreciprocated feelings can be utterly challenging!!! it’s so common to develop affections for someone familiar, like a family friend, especially when they possess such endearing attributes as you described about Gold. when I was younger, I faced a similar situation with a long-time friend, and I realized that sometimes beauty and charm are not the only things to be considered!!! having these feelings is completely normal, and your self-worth should never be contingent on someone else's perceptions. have you considered talking to him about how you feel, or perhaps channeling your emotions into something creative or productive??? it might help you gain some perspective!!! remember, sometimes the journey of self-discovery is even more rewarding than the pursuit itself.

i really feel you on this one and can totally agree with how complicated unrequited feelings can be 😟 it's quite common to catch feelings for someone close like a family friend, especially when they're as charming as gold seems to be. there was a time in high school when i had a crush on someone who didn't even notice me, so i know that struggle. maintaining focus on self-worth is essential because feeling down about yourself due to acne or appearance isn't worth it; everyone has unique qualities that often go unnoticed. maybe it's helpful to remember that sometimes people don't realize how amazing we really are because they're involved in their own storylines. ever think about what makes gold so special to you, apart from the charm and sweet smile?

i get where you’re coming from, but honestly, it seems like you're being way too hard on yourself 😅 this idea that appearance is everything really isn't true; beauty is way more than just skin deep, and acne is a normal human thing!! back when i thought looks were all that mattered, i missed out on real connections, and looking back, it was such a waste. gold having a girlfriend isn’t the end of the world; have you ever thought about focusing on the things that make you awesome instead??? it's surprising how much better you feel when you're not comparing yourself to others!!! trust me, the right people will see past all that surface stuff.
