a smile does not cost anything  and it does make a difference you gotta be pretty sour if u can't even smile at the customer you are about to serve ...  if they smiled more often ppl might not be so rude back to them .. they can shove their fake have a nice days up their a.r.s.e.

Not at all. As long as you love yourself, you have no reason to care about how anyone else thinks. I personally don't care about another's opinions  of me. I have no control over that.

most of my friends come to me for help, talkin things out and such, and when they leave they all so fine and happy. u see the funny thing is that I really feel the exact opposite whenever the conversation ends, sollowin it up and leave knowin that no one on this planet would ever know the way i feel, b&#92;c even if i did talk, im sure id make it sound very different frm the way i really feel. how irionic! :)

D&C, I do feel that alot of people are somewhat sincere, but I also feel some people just say it because they think we won't notice their true intent.

yes, I think everyone feels that way at one time or another. It's really hard because the media pushes everyone to be perfect looking (skinny, extra beautiful, perfect hair and skin). I feel that way sometimes, but I just have to accept how God made me. Besides, if everyone looked the same, it'd be boring. That doesn't mean that if you are fat(not saying you are) that you shouldn't do something about it. Just do your best to exercise and eat right, and just like yourself the way you are.

Yes....so many times that I can't even count....take relief in the fact that you are not the only one.....actually by reading your question and reading what everyone else replied with....I feel much better because it reminds me that I'm not alone in my feelings...we ALL feel that way at one time or another...some people are soo much more sensitive than others, in a lot of ways...it really **** but I wouldn't want to be any different, I like that I FEEL.....too many people are on autopilot these days....not me, I NEVER want to be that way....Thank you for making me feel better, I can only hope that you too will get some relief in knowing that you are not alone.\nThanks everyone out there who responded to this question....you are ALL great!!!!   I love this site!!

When I came out, I had many of the same problems. I'm a lesbian, and the "piece of meat" feeling is the same for us, not as bad, because women don't work like that, but still there. I got alot of apologies, and still do 10 yrs later, about past jokes and "that's so gay" comments. I think that people do that as a way to make themselves feel better about themselves and the stupid things that they say. Not that they wont continue to say them, just not to you. \n\nThe gay bar, lol. Oh my god, the first time I went to the dyke bar was traumatizing. I felt so alone, and I was alone, which didn't help. Had not one gay friend.I felt like everyone was staring at me. I worried wether or not I looked like a lesbian.  But unlike straight bars, alot of people took me under their wing and the feeling in a gay bar is alot more comfortable. There definitely is an expectation of the way we look and act in the gay community, I think it is one of the things that we do to make ourselves better than the straight community. But, you should act however you feel comfortable, people will love you regardless. Welcome newbie, may your new gay life be fabulous!

Does anybody really care?!

It's a horrible feeling to think nobody cares but I garuntee you there is lots of people who do care and you don't realise it.  As for school, don't worry about them it might seem like a long way away now but believe me before you know it you will be out of school in the real world with real people who have more important things to do than bully somebody, and you will meet people who accept and like you for who you are.  Chin up!!!!

you don't have to say it...\n\nSometime when it hurts so much it shows so if the people around you loves you or care for you then all you have to do is smile and they will understand how you feel...\n\nIt does not mean that when you smile is that you are happy...\n\nThis is what we can FACIAL EXPRESSION LIES...

Oh yes. I have always felt different from everyone around me. There has never been anyone who truly "gets" me. I have friends, I have family, but still even when I am with them I feel alone.\nAnd yes left out of things. I've been in situations where it seems I was forgotten. Hearing friends talk about the great time they had doing this or that, and wondering why I wasn't invited.\nI don't know what you wish to know but remember the truly great have always stood alone from the crowd.\nDon't change to fit in, be yourself. Someone will "get" you.

I think it depends on what type of manager.  I'm in middle management and feel like I'm basically a glorified babysitter.  I have to make sure my staff is doing their jobs, getting results in a timely manner.  I have to reprimand them when they do wrong and give them kudos when they do good.

Once you learn to ignore things and not give a damn......... I mean really not give a damn what other people think or say it's all a easy.\nYou probably still get embarrassed and stuff like that.\nI could fall down a bust my butt right now it would make me know difference cause I could not care less what other people say or think!

ya i feel that loads of times but its not true and you most certainly are not ugly even though i have not seen you before. Its easy to feel unhappy but try smiling and see what a big difference it makes!

i think if YOU feel good about yourself and the way you look than who cares what other people think!!!
