“You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful, and then you actually talk to them, and five minutes later they're dull as a brick. But then there's other people, and you meet them and you think 'not bad, they're okay', and then you get to know them, and their face sort of becomes them, like their personality's written all over it, and they just they turn into something so beautiful...” ― Amy Pond, Doctor Who series
I had a friend who's objectively unattractive aunt always told herself when she walked into a room"I am beautiful, I am loved and I know something that nobody else here knows" and she WAS all those things.
Thank you 🙏🏻 That is the most beautiful perspective! This should be the mantra that all of us carry with us in life! “SHE” was correct - she is knew something that so many of us here didn’t. 🥰
@@Tangentbordsblues 'who's' shows possession. But yes, she is an aunt , even a great aunt. ( we are senior citizens), She does the same as her aunt and I'll be damned if people leave the room thinking she is beautiful and mysterious.
People don't hesitate to let you know if you're unattractive. Even if they don't vocalize it you can usually tell in body language or attitude. Sometimes I get tired of being told I have a big heart when most men don't look past the physical to see the big heart
It's hard being very attractive too. Men look at me like a sex object, like some sex goddess to conquer instead of a human being. I've had guys literally cut me off in the middle of a sentence to stay it's hard listening to me because they're distracted by my looks. It sucks because it's much harder to get guys to see you have a big heart or a good personality. So be grateful that people can look pass your physical and see the real you. Being attractive is not as great as people think it is. You just are constantly harassed and you get free stuff but other than that, it blows sometimes.
I'm sure it's hard both ways but the alienation that comes with being unattractive is painful. People tell you to be positive and think positive but it's hard when people treat you like you're sub human. If you walk into a room and everyone turns their head because they don't want to make eye contact it's not the best feeling in the world
Johnnie Shreve #1) You are pretty. Whoever said you weren't was either blind or stupid...or both. #2) Neither of them are easy. Being super attractive and being super unattractive can both create negative consequences :( Ugh.
@harry callton Really you judged women as men haters just hecause they didnt agree with your woman hating. Hmmm. I agree with this woman. She and I are a similar age and I am a widow. We have been around awhile, in my case was happily married for 19 years. I have no hatred of men and if I find the the right connection with a man I will be with one. But its not what drives me because I am happy with myself and my life as it is. Being with someone is not a need for me. I am just fine with myself. It might be more fun if I met a great guy though. You set out to tear her down for what reason? You have to realize that women dont dislike all men because they dont care much for your attitude. That is just not liking you specifically and you dont represent all men.
Thank you, that made my day! I was going to watch that video but i was going through the comments and I saw yours... I realised I didn't need it and I left, thanks a lot
so if a guy says he likes me for who I am and says that I'm beautiful just the way I am, does that also include the physical aspect? or is he only talking about my personality? because to me it sounds like it
+NikkEr Mart hahahaha.whatever, thanks for spending your time to reply anywhere.I know who I am. who cares about what you think? 😉 God bless,have a good life there.
Joe Bird You certainly are an awesome person ! I would like you to smile and be happy ! Insecurity mau ruin you life but you have to look forward ! You are beautiful.
@Gabriela Guzman Oh BULLSHIT!! You know a man's looks do matter! Would you say the same if the man you were describing was a 5'4 bald Indian janitor? Probably not... You are a good example to never watch what a woman says but instead watch what a woman does.
@@RussX5Z My husband was in a near fatal accident which put dents in his forehead and lowered one of his eyes. He is better looking to me 30 yrs later because I see character in his face, I see an amazing father, I see a man who has sacrificed so much for his family. I see a man that I love. So to you Russx5z, I say bullshit. Looks are not as important to women. Men won't even give someone the time of day unless there is that initial attraction. Women will.
I've always felt super insecure about my nose. Never really thought I was ugly but I had doubts regarding my physical appearance. But then I think, maybe its just my insecurity speaking. Yes, I do have a big nose. It's not invisible but it doesn't define my beauty. I think accepting and embracing your flaws really help. People have always complemented me. Guys have still been attracted to me but I never believed it. I've always focused on those who called me ugly and never thought twice about the compliments I've received. Just remember guys, your flaws alone don't define your beauty.
You look absolutely gorgeous in your prof pic, and I'm not just saying that. But of course you are beautiful for more than just your pretty face...your personality, kindness, etc. I can tell from your comments that your are a beautiful person!
***** You're perfectly right! Plus, beauty isn't based on your physical appearance alone, its based on your kindness, confidence, etc. I knew this one guy who didn't have the most perfect face but I always thought he was more attractive than any other guy. Couldn't put my finger on it until I realized his internal beauty overshadowed his physical beauty. I have to remember if I find beauty beyond physical appearances, I can see beauty in myself too. BTW, girl work those toned legs. So jealous!
First of all, I think you are lovely , Awesome zebra! Also, I was just thinking of this guy at work who I think is adorable. He is so not objectively good looking , but he is just so smart, nice, and funny that I find him super attractive . So that really proves Matthew's point , I guess!
My heart isn't appreciated enough. I'm such a generous person, and people use that to take advantage of me. But I appreciate how considerate and compassionate I am. And you, Matthew, are a tall glass of water ;-)
As a woman with an inverted triangle body shape, I spent much of my teen years feeling insecure about not being an hourglass. But body shape is not something easily changed, and what I've learned from this video is that it's not about what I am not, but rather, it's about what I can make of myself with what I have. Thank you for these wise words.
I like that I don't wear clothes just because other girls find it trendy. I like how I wear clothes that remind me of my rolemodels and makes ME feel good, even if no one in my locale dresses like me.
wow i'm the same way, so glad you shared this, sometimes people give me looks but i wish to keep my joy not to be "in line of fashion" it does take to be brave ,....so rock on sister ;o)
i know my oppinion matters very little to you (since i´m a girl,far away and a total stranger haha) but i generaly tend to love this quality ...dressing up in a matter that is yours and you identify with, even if it isn´t ¨cool¨or in trend or whatever...it´s inspirational, to me.
I'm "weird for a black girl". My family and other African Americans say I act "white" or I'm "not black". I like hipster punk bands and kitty stockings and sushi rolls, and I'm not afraid to dance off-beat in public! Just because I act a certain way does not mean I do not appreciate the race I was born into, i think my strange interests make me all the more badass as a black girl. Long live the Ebony weirdos
Fellow Ebony weirdo! Where have you been all my life. I'm the quirkiest black girl you'll ever meet so as a result, other blacks don't really associate with me cos I'm not "black enough". Even though I'm dark skinned...
Lexi Thompson I'm not black, but it's like what does that even mean? You're not "black enough?" So everyone has to fit into a box of lame stereotypes that we are trying to escape? Like am I not "woman enough" if I have small breasts? Clearly someone who thinks you are not "enough" of anything is not someone you want to associate with. Seems more like their problem! Not yours! Love yourself
I feel we become insecure when the person we thought would make us feel loved and beautiful is the person who destroys us.. then we start feeling ugly and insecure..
I feel like my heart is under appreciated.. I'm kind, and compassionate, and at times I can be too trusting, or too nice, and I feel like a lot of people take advantage of that.. like someone I'm close to will hurt me, and keep coming back because he knows I'll forgive him.. I get too attached to people.. I focus more on other people than I do on myself a lot of the time. My mom always says my biggest talent is being kind, because there's not a lot of people like that anymore, but I really feel like some people use it as an excuse to get away with hurting me. I know having a good heart isn't a bad thing, I just really wish more people would appreciate it, and treat it right, instead of treating me like a toy.
Hey there it can seem like looks are important but they're not please never change your kindness please work on being kinder and I know you will find the one.
Maybe you're an empath, we tent to drawns the negative / low vibrational energy to our life. Self Love is all we need. I found myself being too nice, and hard to say no, we like to please others. But inside we're drained because someone misused our kindness. It's time to embrace that you have such a beautiful Empath soul.. and learn how to put & love yourself first 💗💗💗
I have this problem too. It has taken many years, but I've developed strong boundaries. I just don't let people use and abuse me anymore. I don't keep fake friends. I don't hang around others who give me a bad feeling or never support me. I'm alone a lot, but thats ok. I prefer my own company over a room full of fake friends. And the friends I do have are true blue. 💖
If he doesn't find you beautiful, let me tell you.., he is not worth it... Everyone is beautiful in their own way.. "skinny", "fat", Black, White, EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL..
Lol. So you find all guys attractive? Really? I am pretty sure you would not gi out with every guy out there, even if they all had great character. You too choose guys based on looks also. So don't deem guys as bad just because they do the same thing you do: choosing what they are attracted to
even from a girl's perspective thats hilarious. People have opinions whether or not we like it and no one finds everyone attractive. At the end of they day, if a woman sees a guy (stranger) who she finds unattractive she isnt gonna think "oh lemme go see what his personality is like" or anything like that.
Exactly Stella ! Everyone is beautiful IN THEIR OWN WAY! To all you replying your disagreement in a rude way-No one said they like everyone they meets beauty...preference and judgements are two different things. To call someone ugly is a judgement....but saying everyone is beautiful in their own way is a fact. To say you find someone more beautiful or less beautiful to you is a preference. So Stella is not in the wrong...She's just spreading some love and truth🤘
Oh, are obese people beautiful? What a stupid way to undervalue personal preferences and be a hypocrite. I hate people like you, that try so hard to be the "good person", that all rationality is thrown away.
@@Childfriendship Alright, smartass. EVERYONE IS UGLY IN THEIR OWN WAY. One more useless statement that's apparently "a fact" for all you brain dead fact regurgitators.
I love how protective and caring I am and how I can see the strength of those two feelings in my eyes. And I love how I can be protective without being possessive.
I’m quirky, easily excited with a childlike sense of wonder. I seek to appreciate something in every interaction I have with others. I have my mother’s beautiful eyes, curves for days, and a my grandmother’s Cupid’s bow lips.
???? Pretty enough for a booty call or pretty enough to be a wife and mother to his children?!! ...I need to stop being really jealous of wives and mothers he he...
9 years later, and I'm not in love with the fact that he got defensive over the b-word... just because he doesn't have an attachment to it doesn't mean that it isn't absolutely connected to the overall oppression of women... but at least he never uses it anymore in his new content
When younger I went through a phase of approaching guys that I perceived to be way hotter than me because I was like- what the hell I'll give it a shot. Anyway, I ended up dating a couple of them that I liked and at the time I was so insecure about my looks that I couldn't believe they would date me. I'm not bad looking but they were definitely like super model attractive. As it turns out- they were some of the most boring and un-fun people I ever dated. Not that attractive people are necessarily boring, but I think it taught me the lesson that being physically attractive is only one part (and a seriously minor part at that) of the whole package. They quickly became really unattractive to me. Currently dating my long term boyfriend who is not as physically attractive as the other guys, but I've never been so attracted to someone in my life. Xxx
I just visited an art gallery yesterday and told my friend that if I feel insecure about my body I always find it helps to go there because the portrayal of female nakedness is way more real than in media today. It just creates this vibe of normalcy and how back then that was the beauty ideal.
I have several friends that I found completely a-attractive. I didn't find them particularly attractive, but I didn't find them ugly, either. Over time, getting to know them as people, spending time with them, I came to find them some of the most beautiful and handsome people I know.
One thing about myself that I think gets underappreciated, is my willingness to talk to anyone. I love having those serious conversations with friends and family, and giving advice. Talking with others about how they feel makes me feel like I am doing something meaningful for them. This has helped me form lots of really good relationships with my people.
As a man , I don’t want my woman talking to everyone or anyone . I’ve had to explain this to my wife of 7 years now. Week one of us dating, she is so kind and compassionate but with that comes wondering eyes ( not sexually ), but men perceive this as an invitation to flirt even IF the intention are good and that jeopardizes and risks our relationship. The man at the gas’s station maybe could use some help, but one would need to think if it’s worth any issue . Men think “ I have a shot” and makes her relationship and man seem weak. Don’t be willing to talk to anyone . Be a bit guarded and mysterious. You will never stop being compassionate, simply put a layer between being open to everyone and being open to those that truly are worth your efforts. As a psychologist trust me , many people are not willing to be better with solid advice , let alone a strangers help.
True. Appearances will never last forever, we all get old someday or even may get into accidents etc tat changes how we look 4ever. But what will last is a kind heart and positive attitude towards life. Thats beautiful.
Now can teach us how to become charismatic and overcome the trauma caused by the many times we were bullied while growing up for being unattractive!! Because that’s the real struggle!
Stacey Smith I think a huge part is forgiveness and understanding. If you were bullied as a child/teen by others the same age as you, they may not have really thought you were unattractive, but may have actually felt threatened by you OR one may have made a comment and the others were just being followers and bullying you to avoid being bullied themselves. The thing with bullying as a youth, is that because of the maturity level, the real reason for bullying is often because those who bully are insecure of themselves. Why else would anyone make such an effort to point out another’s “flaws” and consistently draw attention to someone else’s appearance in a negative way? Because they’re hoping to take the attention off of the very thing they’re insecure about, all while putting it out there that “don’t mess with me” and wanting to be feared, so that nobody would be brave enough to point out that the bully themselves is not perfect. Try to think of those people as being insecure and suffering inside at that time, and unfortunately because they were young, they didn’t understand that deflecting their insecurities in this way, on to another, would have such long lasting, and painful consequences. If not you, it would have been someone else. You are beautiful! And even more so because you are strong! ❤️❤️
True. I guess it would be up to us to believe that there really wasn't anything wrong with us in the first place. No one chooses to be bullied (myself included).
@@meme6083 Sorry but it's totally untrue. And it's a 45 years old who tells you that. I was bullied for my red hair, for years. What did it for me was to improve my self-esteem. I went to see therapists (psychologists, hypnotherapist etc...), I grew myself by doing stuff I liked and was good at, learned new stuff to be proud of myself. You could be 70 and still despise yourself if you never worked to feel better about you.
Everyone of us has its unique beauty and everyone has its own meaning of being beautiful. Be your own kind of beautiful not what somebody says to you.It’s not only physical appearances that matters but the real beauty within.
I appreciate my thick natural hair and my goofy personality. I'm very shy and don't know what guys think when they see me. I was told one time I give off this vibe that cannot be explained but they sat it was a good one.
but society dont appreciate me, even how hard i try to be friend with them. They always say im too skinny like a stick. thats why i often want to be alone. but i felt pretty after i watch your video. thanx
Sandara Park People keep telling me I'm too skinny and at first it bothered me but now I don't give a fuck Lol! I feel fantastic the way I am, and I'm healthy! That's all that matters! Don't feel bad about it! :)
afox78 thank you, i am the skinniest, ugliest person among my family member. thats why they tease me that what if i'm adopted.😲 thats why i think theyre not jealous i think its true. 😢
I'm not really considered a "typical" pretty girl for today's society. But I'm very friendly and easy going. But my problem is that when I get around a guy I like I don't act like myself because I'm so nervous. I forget to smile and I barely talk. It's so irritating!
I had the same problem! Nice to know that I'm not alone in this :-) Just have fun with your male friends and get used to men. Also, the problem might not be in you - the guys might seem friendly and easy-going but they might actually be insecure and overly critical somewhere deep inside. Trust me, you will be comfortable around the guy that's right for you.
sleepingsunrise Actually, I've already met several guys who I felt comfortable around, and the last one even makes me feel self-confident and my brain doesn't stop working around him :-) It's way too soon to tell if he's "the right one", but he's definitely an exciting person and we get on well, which in itself is great :-) thanks, and yeah - good luck to us both!
sleepingsunrise MEEE TOOO!!! Here's what I did to fix it: I put him in the friendzone. Terrible, I know, but it helped me relax and be myself. Right about the time I gave up on him even liking me, he asked me out. IT WORKED!!! I got nervous again, but after a while, I realized I didn't need to be, because nothing had changed.
I plan on traveling a bit and seeing if my luck changes with men from other countries. I hope it goes well. But congrats to you! If I ever start to feel nervous around a guy I like I'll try that technique :-)
Loved this video. So real and honest. I had a total “aha” moment when you said it’s a “waste of life” to worry about the things we can’t change. Bless you x
I saw this guy and he was beautiful ....... but when i finally spoke to him with in 5 minutes i was like 'hell no " ........ i am now crushing on not as 'hot ' guy but omg his personality and charm 😱😱😱😱 so its true whats on the inside that counts xxxxx
I am insecure about nearly everything it made me anti social.. i know the harmful effects its causing but don't know how I can fight it..It all started happening after I was rejected and dumped by my only childhood love which I was crazy about for 8 years of my life.. but I was not good enough for him just because I was not that beautiful and an average looking girl.. since then my confidence is shattered .. but I will try to find it back thanks for the video it really gave me some hope..
Remember that everyone has a story. Don't use that story as a reason to not be involved with people and life. I was beautiful and yet couldn't get over someone for 8 yrs who just didn't feel the same way. Now married for 32 years to a man who saw my heart. I see you wrote this a year ago. I truely hope you have stopped using this story to stay alone.
i have been told by several people that when i laugh i sound like a hyena, this has caused me to try to suppress laughing around guys and i know that there are guys that i think he's so cute but he couldn't possibly be in to someone like me
someone out there will find it contagious and it will make them happy. i cackle like a witch sometimes people find it creepy sometimes people find it hilarious. moretime hilarious lol
You know how to make yourself stop feeling insecure about that? turn it on it's head and turn it into a compliment. I know that's meant to be regarded as a bad thing but seriously...have you ever seen footage of a hyena? it's "laugh" to me sounds so happy- like it's found something hilarious and is having the time of it's life! why wouldn't you want to sound like that?! plus a laugh of that magnitude is infectious and can often lead other people to joining in. It's the best kind of laugh to have! It's obvious and happy and just awesome to hear! so you go ahead and laugh your heart out at whatever you want to because no one should make you feel like you can't laugh because that's like being told you can't have fun or that you can't express having fun and no one (friends, family, partners, etc.) should ever tell you that.
Marianna P I have yet to actually meet anyone who is put off by someone who snorts when they laugh! You should embrace it, it's adorable (I mean I don't know how the media ever portrayed it as a bad thing? because I've honestly never met anyone who didn't like it or at least find it funny! it's cute!) and you're right the right guy won't care either (heck maybe he'll snort when he laughs too!)
People consider me beautiful yet, I always like the ''ugly guy'' and people always wonder why. But even though I don't like the hot guy, I like the dorky or nerdy guy...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. But yeah, beauty is in the feeling a person gives you. A person that makes you feel good, will make you think positive about that person, which makes that person beautiful in our heart.
+Adagio Dazzle ahahaha I say soo many random things I can't even give an example :) But it is part of who you are and if people don't accept that then they are just superficial! I mean you can also make a joke out of it ...
I can't stand when men tell me I have a beautiful personality, and what a great person I am ... yet follow up with but you would be drop dead flawless if you lost a few pounds. I have gained weight because I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and after they performed surgery to remove my thyroid I gained weight. I work out 5 days a week and eat well but it doesn't come off . my Dr says people with hypothyroidism struggle severely with weight gain and trying to shed pounds. personally I am OK with it I have come to embrace my size 14 and learned to live with this incurable disease because I eat right I just can't control the weight I pack on . what can I do so that this isn't an issue .
Yikes! I have hypothyroidism too, but I didn't get my gland removed, neither do I plan to. I read a book called "Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms When My Lab Tests are Normal?" and it opened my eyes to a lot of things. Thankfully, I did research on hypothyroidism before the book as well so reading it only solidified the info I found. It turns out you don't have to get your thyroid gland removed, in fact it's discouraged in a lot of cases. I'm afraid you went to the wrong doctor/person when getting that procedure done because there IS a way to permanently fix hypothyroidism: it involves blood tests that determine where the problem originally started and developing a mainly eating-based plan that will simultaneously diminish the symptoms while healing itself to being a complete reversal. Most people don't even know they have hypothyroidism, let alone how to properly fix it.
Kristina Arce you're inspiration to me right now. God has blessed your spouse to be. Your mindset should go for all girls/boys. I hope you have a good day or anyone else that's reading this. God bless. :)
i'm 17 years old asian girl living in Europe. I have small eyes (two days ago during a lesson when I was looking down on my textbook my teacher asked me if I'm sleeping) But I still really like my eyes! They have a dark and pretty brown color. What I used to hate about them but now quite like is that one eye is bigger than another! I'm gonna love myself and not care what other people say!
+jennifer kang I know right? I think asian women really should embrace our natural beauty rather than trying to fit into more western standards. Especially as you mentioned Koreans, their women are so georgous! Btw I am so touched by the support I got 😘
you are so articulate and so bang on as well. i try and explain this idea to people all the time when they make self-deprecating comments about their looks (as a model, you tend to hear this a lot from people, both girls and guys) and i find it so heartbreaking. I am as insecure as the next person about my looks, even though i get paid for them (in the modelling business one minute you're hot, the next you're not so you learn to not rely on your looks too much), but I know real beauty is an attitude and it comes from confidence in yourself. And that confidence need not stem from your looks alone (although it can, but if that's the only place from which you draw your self esteem from well that isn't confidence, that's vanity and arrogance). It should be drawn from the deep well of who you are as a person. Cos to be truly beautiful you have to be a good person with a good heart.
I think looks do matter at some extent, I mean we are biologically attracted to beauty of a person's appearance or else the model industry would've gone doomed. Taking care of your skin and body is a sign that not only makes you look attractive but also shows you take care of yourself. Ofcourse the features you're born with can't be changed but the package your given can be improved.
+Serlom Cole Lol you're so naive for thinking personality is everything. obviously you're insecure about your looks that's why you're coming up with such statements. The funny thing is you are telling this to me in this video. Admit it you wouldn't be even here if this was just like some average looking guy who doesn't take care of his hair, body and skin. Sure beauty is subjective but appearance isn't honey. In this world appearance is a major factor cause visual image is the first thing our brain receives. That's why we hear "don't judge a book by it' s cover" or else we wouldn't. Appearance will help you everywhere, in profession, in social life and in love life too.If a person doesn't care about his appearance like his skin,hair and body it tells a lot about him too. Of course appearance isn't everything in relationship, you sure won't date someone who is good looking but is an asshole. People should just take care of their hair, body and skin. Are they good looking or not is subjective.
+Serlom Cole Also appearance (being presentable) and beauty are two different thing. I am thinking you took my words in wrong way. Beauty is very subjective but appearance isn't but at the same times it shouldn't be everything. People should be confident about their looks and look presentable.
saniyauzumaki am not insecure about my looks am very confident as he has explained in the video he just said that the dumbest thing anyone can do is sit around n mop n complain about their looks coz no one in this freaking world chose which race to be born with twas involuntary so no one should tek credit for that as it isnt an achievement rather he said pple should add value to the world n b best they can b thats more attractive than just mere dumb looks....i meant after looks the underlying factor is personality coz personality keeps bonds stronger....i have been in a situation where i wasnt attracted to a guy but we started chatting n i fell hard over him coz of his personality...
Angie, my dear girl just because you get older does not necessarily mean you are going to have medical issues. I am old as dirt and I am in perfect health. I can run, play racquetball, work out for 2 hours go swimming and I can walk for 4 miles after that. That was me today.You have to stay active eat healthy, keep your mind young and you can still look good! Look at Suzanne Summers, Christie Brinkley, Harris Ford, etc.
I never appreciate my strength! I have severe trauma, have been verbally, physically, and sexually abused countless times and abandoned by the ones I love so many times but I'm still here and still fighting. I'm proud of myself. I do have insecurity, but I choose to love my disproportionately large boobs and narrow hips and braces and stomach that isn't quite toned yet but will be as I keep working and taking care of my mental health and drinking water and concentrating on whether I am full or not so I don't accidentally binge on healthy food. I'm 17 years old and I'm strong. If he doesn't like me that way, honestly that's fine. He doesn't owe me anything. But thank you for making this video! I keep telling myself he's too attractive for me but 99% of the feelings for him developed because I saw his beautiful heart. And yeah he's fucking hot but I don't get nervous around guys that are just hot. I treat those guys as an equal. But him! He is hot and has a beautiful heart and I fuck up all the time. But he just doesn't care and it's an amazing quality. Whether he likes me or not, I really hope to get a friendship out of this because people like that don't come around often. But non matter what, I am worthy of love.
Morgan Parker made me smile! sometimes I feel so fucking thankful for things in this world and this comment is such a gift. you rock. I am worth it. usually when I like guys it gives me anxiety and stomach problems and fear and stress and shit like that but honestly I don't spend every second thinking of him. its not a burden to have feelings for him. I embrace that shit! you are worth it too!
N. Fer. Ⓥ I feel you. You are so much stonger than you realize! I have a trauma from my childhood and been in bad relationships after that. Gone through verbally and physically abusement. Narsicism leaves deep scars and wrecks your self-esteem. Trauma effects your life completely. This said, I broke up with my boyfriend this year cause he was also abusive to me. I found the strenght to break the habit and I'm so proud of me! I was strong enough because I believed that I am meaningful, worthy and deserve to be treated with respect and caring. Remember that you are always worth of love and compassion. The road to deal with the trauma is quite long but the process makes you truly strong and conscious about the important things in life. Remember: you are good enough.
N. Fer. Ⓥ People will tell you to get over it, but they never tell you how. One of the best things I ever did for myself was join Celebrate Recovery. It's free, it's worldwide, and it opened up a whole new world for me. My anxiety, insecurity, hurt, fear and resentments are all gone. I couldn't give it a higher recommendation. ♡
As I'm 5ft9/10, I know how horrible that is. However, I've heard other tall girls have a go at guys for preferring short girls, but these same girls then say how they could never date someone shorter than them which literally makes no sense.
Hey Matthew.Thank you so much for this video. This is the first time i have come across such a great explanation about objective beauty and perceived beauty. I think we get so caught up in the objective beauty because we are so exposed to it that we forget that it's not realistic to try to keep up with that in real life. They're two different things. You did an amazing job of explaining it.
As a guy, I look for the values a girl has over looks and most of my friends do the same. If you are a nice girl that contributes to a relationship, a lot of guys will chase you.
Once the chase is over, men don't even care what a woman does and starts to believe she does 'nothing'. No wonder women are on sexual rampages these days. Men are not fair.

if symmetry was everything I'd be screwed forever. My eyebrows are crooked and I'm NOT drawing or filling them in. My mouth is a bit crooked when I speak as well. I think that there's hope for everyone because my husband loves my asymmetrical self!
Same, I like many things about myself no one cares about lol But I compliment other women on those, too 😌 I was having lunch with my co-worker and she had dimples just like mine)
Hey Mathew, I came about your video by accident and clicked on it simply because of your looks and what a surprise I had after hearing what you had to say. I personally suffer from insecurities at a high level which have held me back in every single way. I don't find myself attractive enough to win someone's heart, I actually never had. Friends say there is no way I'm not attractive but due to my high level of insecurity I think they are only saying to keep me happy. Your comment really is very enlightening and I will try to explore my perceived beauty because based on what you said, it is what is most important about us human beings ( I take that's the point you tried to make right?). By the way you are very attractive man and. Wish I had only a small part of your beauty and well spoken attitude :)
I love this. I certainly would change a few of my physical features if I could, but you just have to learn to live with it. Find someone who adores your quirks, flaws, and imperfections. Perfection is not only unrealistic, but boring as well.
I Just see this vid for this ressemble i was lost in UA-cam as usually the way better is you you off the sound of this vid but you let the vid on and you put harry potter's sound try it ;) (sorry i'm not English i don't know if what i said is understandable)
Let's be honest: looks matter! Both make and female. Make the most of what you have. Take care of your skin and your body! People who look good, feel good and it shows.
UA-cam recommended this video. Good stuff! Preach it Matthew! I was insecure about things I couldn't really change like my skin, hair, voice, height lol dumb stuff really. I was bullied for all that, but my personality is so bomb and they were just missing out. I'm hilarious 😂 and extremely caring. The WHOLE package lol So there's that 👸🏽 But really, I love my heart. I can be so generous, empathetic, friendly and all that good stuff but I think it gets overlooked. 🙃
under appreciated about me: Being intelligent. It´s always my laugh, my presence and my face that do the trick... I just wish for someone to notice me secretly being intelligent and telling me how wonderfull that is.
I’m am very kind-and I hope this is the energy people get from me! I’m a hair stylist, so nothing makes me more happy than making some one look good!! I had one lady, after I finished her hair, say “ do you think my husband will fall in love with me all over again?” How awesome is that!! She felt new and revived!
This is good! I used to be SOOO insecure about my height. Why? Cuz I've seen it ALL over FB that girls like tall guys. Truth is the posts had a package and I was focusing on what I didn't have. Truth is... I had everything else! I am happy! 😃
All girls don't like tall guys. To me there is nothing sexier than a shorter guy with an athletic body. I don't mean he has to be built like a football player at all. I mean broad shoulders, trim waist and masculine carriage. Actually, long legs on a tall guy creep me out, and tall guys never age well; they become stooped, whereas shorter guys go on being sexy into their 60's because they are still that combination of boyish and masculinity.
I often tried not to like someone whenever I realized I liked him because I felt he deserves a better woman who is more beautiful than me. :( This video makes me think in a different perspective about beauty and feel more confident. Thank you!!
This is the hand I was dealt. How am I going to play this hand? I am going to own it. Because any man or woman that doesn't think that I am beautiful isn't going to phase me. I know who I am.
I have felt like I wasn't beautiful but have always been told I'm to beautiful but I still don't get asked out on dates I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
oof i have the same problem, i guess we gotta be more open to others but idk how to do that, i tend to be a pessimist and idk how to fix thaat ughhhhhhh
I'm am going through a process of distancing myself from someone who is just playing with me.Thanks God I fell upon your website and its helping me cope and become self confident and knows what I really want. Thank Mr Matthew.
I’ve got beautiful long eyelashes and big eyes. I also love how outgoing I am when I meet new people, everyone admires my confidence. Thank you matthew for this video
Wow I'm reading this after 2 years, today in 2021. I was feeling sad and vulnerable again. I got dumped my someone I loved and now I started questioning myself and how I look. And reading my own comment on this video that I wrote 2 yrs ago makes me feel sad that I have not changed even though my situations have changed for good. Well dear Oorja from past. I thank you for the present. And I won't disappoint you. I love you and I will take care of you in future.
i've been so insecure about my height being too tall always got me depressed even though people say they love my height and they wished they were tall like me...i still don't believe it and even if i see shoes which are high heels that i would love i wouldn't wear them
zarah leena I feel ya! I'm 5'7 And everyone in my family is much shorter than I. Took me a long time to stop caring as much. Still bothers me on an occasion, specially in the dating world. Where I live the men tend to be on the shorter side. On another note, I've had more men tell me they find my height more elegant and sexy than the shorter woman. If you rock it with confidence it becomes super sexy and admirable. Makes us stand out!
I´m 4´11´´....do you wanna split? :))) i get to be taller, because EVERYONE is taller than me- so not nice...and you get to be shorter...tho, like most people tell you...height is a quality.
zarah leena I'm 5'3" and I'll take some of your height off your hands. The only thing I like about being short is dating but climbing counters to get things and not being able to see when folks stand up at events gets old. Either way, our differences are what makes us beautiful in our own way. A confident woman whether 5' or 6' is a sight of beauty.
I'm 5'3 too...it is what it is. Whoever the man is, he will love you for who you are. No matter what your height is. If they are stuck with the physical such as height, he's shallow anyways.
“You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful, and then you actually talk to them, and five minutes later they're dull as a brick. But then there's other people, and you meet them and you think 'not bad, they're okay', and then you get to know them, and their face sort of becomes them, like their personality's written all over it, and they just they turn into something so beautiful...”

I had a friend who's objectively unattractive aunt always told herself when she walked into a room"I am beautiful, I am loved and I know something that nobody else here knows" and she WAS all those things.
This is a fantastic share...going to try it!
wow I love this I'm going to steal this ❤
Thank you 🙏🏻 That is the most beautiful perspective! This should be the mantra that all of us carry with us in life!
“SHE” was correct - she is knew something that so many of us here didn’t. 🥰
Your friend is an aunt?
@@Tangentbordsblues 'who's' shows possession. But yes, she is an aunt , even a great aunt. ( we are senior citizens), She does the same as her aunt and I'll be damned if people leave the room thinking she is beautiful and mysterious.

People don't hesitate to let you know if you're unattractive. Even if they don't vocalize it you can usually tell in body language or attitude. Sometimes I get tired of being told I have a big heart when most men don't look past the physical to see the big heart
It's hard being very attractive too. Men look at me like a sex object, like some sex goddess to conquer instead of a human being. I've had guys literally cut me off in the middle of a sentence to stay it's hard listening to me because they're distracted by my looks. It sucks because it's much harder to get guys to see you have a big heart or a good personality. So be grateful that people can look pass your physical and see the real you. Being attractive is not as great as people think it is. You just are constantly harassed and you get free stuff but other than that, it blows sometimes.
I'm sure it's hard both ways but the alienation that comes with being unattractive is painful. People tell you to be positive and think positive but it's hard when people treat you like you're sub human. If you walk into a room and everyone turns their head because they don't want to make eye contact it's not the best feeling in the world
Johnnie Shreve #1) You are pretty. Whoever said you weren't was either blind or stupid...or both. #2) Neither of them are easy. Being super attractive and being super unattractive can both create negative consequences :( Ugh.
***** But then again. Attractive is subjective!!!!! It's all bull shit.
MrsTruthTeller
Am I the only one who's going to say this? Ok, Ms, if you're so attractive, where's your pic?
I’m 52, in smart, strong, fit, pretty , funny, hard working, I’m kind, generous! I am ENOUGH!💕
I ♥️ME!
You're right. You come frist!!!
Gratitude, that's beautiful!👑
And I love that you said that !
@harry callton She's free of ego maniacs like you. and i bet much happier. Obviously.
@harry callton Really you judged women as men haters just hecause they didnt agree with your woman hating. Hmmm.
I agree with this woman. She and I are a similar age and I am a widow. We have been around awhile, in my case was happily married for 19 years. I have no hatred of men and if I find the the right connection with a man I will be with one. But its not what drives me because I am happy with myself and my life as it is. Being with someone is not a need for me. I am just fine with myself. It might be more fun if I met a great guy though.
You set out to tear her down for what reason? You have to realize that women dont dislike all men because they dont care much for your attitude. That is just not liking you specifically and you dont represent all men.
Not to be mean but if the guy you like doesn't like you for you, he isn't the right one.
That’s not mean that’s facts
Ramyaaa id have to agree
Thank you, that made my day! I was going to watch that video but i was going through the comments and I saw yours... I realised I didn't need it and I left, thanks a lot
so if a guy says he likes me for who I am and says that I'm beautiful just the way I am, does that also include the physical aspect? or is he only talking about my personality? because to me it sounds like it
Agreed!
This guy is a perfect mixture of Daniel Radcliffe and Adam Levine
+Kaylee Giles yessss...i thought it was just the accent making me think of daniel but he looks like him too..and adam..wow

That is so sweet! That just made my day. I was feeling depressed and now my daddy is a little brighter, I appreciate that so much!

Girl you're honestly not alone x
I struggle with insecurity too. It’s depilating and I want to be over it! It always just creeps
Back in...
When a guy is respectuful, charming, a complete gentleman, looks become the least important thing
He can actually be good looking and be all of those things .In fact I can't even think of a guy as " attractive " if it's only skin deep.
Hahaa😂
@Gabriela Guzman Oh BULLSHIT!! You know a man's looks do matter! Would you say the same if the man you were describing was a 5'4 bald Indian janitor? Probably not... You are a good example to never watch what a woman says but instead watch what a woman does.
They can become cute 😆
@@RussX5Z My husband was in a near fatal accident which put dents in his forehead and lowered one of his eyes. He is better looking to me 30 yrs later because I see character in his face, I see an amazing father, I see a man who has sacrificed so much for his family. I see a man that I love. So to you Russx5z, I say bullshit. Looks are not as important to women. Men won't even give someone the time of day unless there is that initial attraction. Women will.
I've always felt super insecure about my nose. Never really thought I was ugly but I had doubts regarding my physical appearance. But then I think, maybe its just my insecurity speaking. Yes, I do have a big nose. It's not invisible but it doesn't define my beauty. I think accepting and embracing your flaws really help. People have always complemented me. Guys have still been attracted to me but I never believed it. I've always focused on those who called me ugly and never thought twice about the compliments I've received. Just remember guys, your flaws alone don't define your beauty.
You look absolutely gorgeous in your prof pic, and I'm not just saying that. But of course you are beautiful for more than just your pretty face...your personality, kindness, etc. I can tell from your comments that your are a beautiful person!
Ash org Thank you. The personality comments mean the world to me :)
***** You're perfectly right! Plus, beauty isn't based on your physical appearance alone, its based on your kindness, confidence, etc. I knew this one guy who didn't have the most perfect face but I always thought he was more attractive than any other guy. Couldn't put my finger on it until I realized his internal beauty overshadowed his physical beauty. I have to remember if I find beauty beyond physical appearances, I can see beauty in myself too. BTW, girl work those toned legs. So jealous!
Girls I want to share with you this effective formula to make a man do almost anything you want

First of all, I think you are lovely , Awesome zebra! Also, I was just thinking of this guy at work who I think is adorable. He is so not objectively good looking , but he is just so smart, nice, and funny that I find him super attractive . So that really proves Matthew's point , I guess!
I study this guys public speaking skills. It's amazing. His dating advise isn't too bad either.
What have you found? 😊
My heart isn't appreciated enough. I'm such a generous person, and people use that to take advantage of me. But I appreciate how considerate and compassionate I am. And you, Matthew, are a tall glass of water ;-)
Sarah Missanthrope Same. You gotta protect yourself from those people. Know how much to give and when it's time to pull out. I'm till learning this.
Me too.
As a woman with an inverted triangle body shape, I spent much of my teen years feeling insecure about not being an hourglass. But body shape is not something easily changed, and what I've learned from this video is that it's not about what I am not, but rather, it's about what I can make of myself with what I have. Thank you for these wise words.
I could listen to him for hours. His voice is so calm and I love his accent 😂
I like that I don't wear clothes just because other girls find it trendy. I like how I wear clothes that remind me of my rolemodels and makes ME feel good, even if no one in my locale dresses like me.
wow i'm the same way, so glad you shared this, sometimes people give me looks but i wish to keep my joy not to be "in line of fashion" it does take to be brave ,....so rock on sister ;o)
i know my oppinion matters very little to you (since i´m a girl,far away and a total stranger haha) but i generaly tend to love this quality ...dressing up in a matter that is yours and you identify with, even if it isn´t ¨cool¨or in trend or whatever...it´s inspirational, to me.
How would you describe your style?
Girlllllll me too!!! I don't follow trends.
All the girls in my school try to look like Kylie Jenner, meanwhile I try to look like Morticia from The Addams Family. XD
I'm "weird for a black girl". My family and other African Americans say I act "white" or I'm "not black". I like hipster punk bands and kitty stockings and sushi rolls, and I'm not afraid to dance off-beat in public! Just because I act a certain way does not mean I do not appreciate the race I was born into, i think my strange interests make me all the more badass as a black girl. Long live the Ebony weirdos
Lexi Thompson
Lexi Thompson that's like my bf. Just be who you are I hate when other black people make you feel like you're not black enough
Fellow Ebony weirdo! Where have you been all my life. I'm the quirkiest black girl you'll ever meet so as a result, other blacks don't really associate with me cos I'm not "black enough". Even though I'm dark skinned...
Lexi Thompson p
Lexi Thompson I'm not black, but it's like what does that even mean? You're not "black enough?" So everyone has to fit into a box of lame stereotypes that we are trying to escape? Like am I not "woman enough" if I have small breasts? Clearly someone who thinks you are not "enough" of anything is not someone you want to associate with. Seems more like their problem! Not yours! Love yourself
I feel we become insecure when the person we thought would make us feel loved and beautiful is the person who destroys us.. then we start feeling ugly and insecure..
Can’t we all just date you?
lol .. I know
Not Necessarahly ? What? Why would he call her a bitch?
We can share, I'll take Tuesdays
I wouldn't want to date him
So cute👍

Every time I feel insecure, im gonna remember that 😊
Is he though?
It’s hard to tell on a dating app 😅
I feel like my heart is under appreciated.. I'm kind, and compassionate, and at times I can be too trusting, or too nice, and I feel like a lot of people take advantage of that.. like someone I'm close to will hurt me, and keep coming back because he knows I'll forgive him.. I get too attached to people.. I focus more on other people than I do on myself a lot of the time. My mom always says my biggest talent is being kind, because there's not a lot of people like that anymore, but I really feel like some people use it as an excuse to get away with hurting me. I know having a good heart isn't a bad thing, I just really wish more people would appreciate it, and treat it right, instead of treating me like a toy.
Hey there it can seem like looks are important but they're not please never change your kindness please work on being kinder and I know you will find the one.
Same here girl.
Maybe you're an empath, we tent to drawns the negative / low vibrational energy to our life. Self Love is all we need. I found myself being too nice, and hard to say no, we like to please others. But inside we're drained because someone misused our kindness. It's time to embrace that you have such a beautiful Empath soul.. and learn how to put & love yourself first 💗💗💗
I have this problem too. It has taken many years, but I've developed strong boundaries. I just don't let people use and abuse me anymore. I don't keep fake friends. I don't hang around others who give me a bad feeling or never support me. I'm alone a lot, but thats ok. I prefer my own company over a room full of fake friends. And the friends I do have are true blue. 💖
You’re like me.
If he doesn't find you beautiful, let me tell you.., he is not worth it... Everyone is beautiful in their own way.. "skinny", "fat", Black, White, EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL..
Lol. So you find all guys attractive? Really? I am pretty sure you would not gi out with every guy out there, even if they all had great character. You too choose guys based on looks also. So don't deem guys as bad just because they do the same thing you do: choosing what they are attracted to
even from a girl's perspective thats hilarious. People have opinions whether or not we like it and no one finds everyone attractive. At the end of they day, if a woman sees a guy (stranger) who she finds unattractive she isnt gonna think "oh lemme go see what his personality is like" or anything like that.
Exactly Stella ! Everyone is beautiful IN THEIR OWN WAY! To all you replying your disagreement in a rude way-No one said they like everyone they meets beauty...preference and judgements are two different things. To call someone ugly is a judgement....but saying everyone is beautiful in their own way is a fact. To say you find someone more beautiful or less beautiful to you is a preference. So Stella is not in the wrong...She's just spreading some love and truth🤘
Oh, are obese people beautiful? What a stupid way to undervalue personal preferences and be a hypocrite. I hate people like you, that try so hard to be the "good person", that all rationality is thrown away.
@@Childfriendship Alright, smartass. EVERYONE IS UGLY IN THEIR OWN WAY.
One more useless statement that's apparently "a fact" for all you brain dead fact regurgitators.
I love how protective and caring I am and how I can see the strength of those two feelings in my eyes. And I love how I can be protective without being possessive.

his insight into the female mind must be insane, considering how many people talk to him about their problems
9 years later, and I'm not in love with the fact that he got defensive over the b-word... just because he doesn't have an attachment to it doesn't mean that it isn't absolutely connected to the overall oppression of women... but at least he never uses it anymore in his new content
When younger I went through a phase of approaching guys that I perceived to be way hotter than me because I was like- what the hell I'll give it a shot. Anyway, I ended up dating a couple of them that I liked and at the time I was so insecure about my looks that I couldn't believe they would date me. I'm not bad looking but they were definitely like super model attractive.
As it turns out- they were some of the most boring and un-fun people I ever dated. Not that attractive people are necessarily boring, but I think it taught me the lesson that being physically attractive is only one part (and a seriously minor part at that) of the whole package. They quickly became really unattractive to me.
Currently dating my long term boyfriend who is not as physically attractive as the other guys, but I've never been so attracted to someone in my life. Xxx
I just visited an art gallery yesterday and told my friend that if I feel insecure about my body I always find it helps to go there because the portrayal of female nakedness is way more real than in media today. It just creates this vibe of normalcy and how back then that was the beauty ideal.
I have several friends that I found completely a-attractive. I didn't find them particularly attractive, but I didn't find them ugly, either. Over time, getting to know them as people, spending time with them, I came to find them some of the most beautiful and handsome people I know.
I’m mesmerised on how intelligent this guy is, honestly. I wish I knew more people with this kind of mentality to have conversations with!
what if your personality is shit and you aren't like those bubbly funny girls? i got screwed both ways
Lol I love you
Christina R I want to be your friend. Let's be friends.
Definitely! It's nice to know there is someone who feels the way I do.
Lol you are me
One thing about myself that I think gets underappreciated, is my willingness to talk to anyone. I love having those serious conversations with friends and family, and giving advice. Talking with others about how they feel makes me feel like I am doing something meaningful for them. This has helped me form lots of really good relationships with my people.
As a man , I don’t want my woman talking to everyone or anyone . I’ve had to explain this to my wife of 7 years now. Week one of us dating, she is so kind and compassionate but with that comes wondering eyes ( not sexually ), but men perceive this as an invitation to flirt even IF the intention are good and that jeopardizes and risks our relationship. The man at the gas’s station maybe could use some help, but one would need to think if it’s worth any issue . Men think “ I have a shot” and makes her relationship and man seem weak. Don’t be willing to talk to anyone . Be a bit guarded and mysterious. You will never stop being compassionate, simply put a layer between being open to everyone and being open to those that truly are worth your efforts. As a psychologist trust me , many people are not willing to be better with solid advice , let alone a strangers help.
You know what's funny about this video? As much as I don't know his inner beauty, his outside is really beautiful.
I try 😂
True. Appearances will never last forever, we all get old someday or even may get into accidents etc tat changes how we look 4ever. But what will last is a kind heart and positive attitude towards life. Thats beautiful.

I feel like the fact that you made this comment means you have a great package XD
Now can teach us how to become charismatic and overcome the trauma caused by the many times we were bullied while growing up for being unattractive!!
Because that’s the real struggle!
It's easy.. wait til you are 40. The Maleficent in you awakes and all that insecurity vanishes overnight.
Stacey Smith I think a huge part is forgiveness and understanding. If you were bullied as a child/teen by others the same age as you, they may not have really thought you were unattractive, but may have actually felt threatened by you OR one may have made a comment and the others were just being followers and bullying you to avoid being bullied themselves. The thing with bullying as a youth, is that because of the maturity level, the real reason for bullying is often because those who bully are insecure of themselves. Why else would anyone make such an effort to point out another’s “flaws” and consistently draw attention to someone else’s appearance in a negative way? Because they’re hoping to take the attention off of the very thing they’re insecure about, all while putting it out there that “don’t mess with me” and wanting to be feared, so that nobody would be brave enough to point out that the bully themselves is not perfect.
Try to think of those people as being insecure and suffering inside at that time, and unfortunately because they were young, they didn’t understand that deflecting their insecurities in this way, on to another, would have such long lasting, and painful consequences. If not you, it would have been someone else. You are beautiful! And even more so because you are strong! ❤️❤️
@@tweetiepie551 Is it? Omg can't wait!
True. I guess it would be up to us to believe that there really wasn't anything wrong with us in the first place. No one chooses to be bullied (myself included).
@@meme6083 Sorry but it's totally untrue. And it's a 45 years old who tells you that. I was bullied for my red hair, for years. What did it for me was to improve my self-esteem. I went to see therapists (psychologists, hypnotherapist etc...), I grew myself by doing stuff I liked and was good at, learned new stuff to be proud of myself. You could be 70 and still despise yourself if you never worked to feel better about you.

I'm not really considered a "typical" pretty girl for today's society. But I'm very friendly and easy going. But my problem is that when I get around a guy I like I don't act like myself because I'm so nervous. I forget to smile and I barely talk. It's so irritating!
I had the same problem! Nice to know that I'm not alone in this :-) Just have fun with your male friends and get used to men. Also, the problem might not be in you - the guys might seem friendly and easy-going but they might actually be insecure and overly critical somewhere deep inside. Trust me, you will be comfortable around the guy that's right for you.
That 's what one of my friends said. "the right guy will help you feel comfortable around him". I try to keep that in mind. Good luck to us both!
sleepingsunrise
Actually, I've already met several guys who I felt comfortable around, and the last one even makes me feel self-confident and my brain doesn't stop working around him :-) It's way too soon to tell if he's "the right one", but he's definitely an exciting person and we get on well, which in itself is great :-) thanks, and yeah - good luck to us both!
sleepingsunrise MEEE TOOO!!! Here's what I did to fix it: I put him in the friendzone. Terrible, I know, but it helped me relax and be myself. Right about the time I gave up on him even liking me, he asked me out. IT WORKED!!! I got nervous again, but after a while, I realized I didn't need to be, because nothing had changed.
I plan on traveling a bit and seeing if my luck changes with men from other countries. I hope it goes well. But congrats to you! If I ever start to feel nervous around a guy I like I'll try that technique :-)
The actual content of the video starts at 3:29. or 7:19 for a quick recap. You're welcome.
I’m not pretty and I have a boring personality.
And I’m obviously negative...
And you have a sense of humor 😊👍
Same 😂😂
+theOne5555555555 you awesome man
Lol!!!
See of you stepped into other shoes and saw how they looked at you, youd be in shock. Theres always someone that is enchanted by you...trust me.
I've always been self conscious about my chubby cheeks, since my childhood since I was teased ALOT for them. I will embrace them! I will be proud^.^
you go girl!
+Imani Mitchell Cheeks are cute! You just need a guy/girl who'll want to pinch your cheeks all the time ^_^
Loved this video. So real and honest. I had a total “aha” moment when you said it’s a “waste of life” to worry about the things we can’t change. Bless you x
I saw this guy and he was beautiful ....... but when i finally spoke to him with in 5 minutes i was like 'hell no " ........ i am now crushing on not as 'hot ' guy but omg his personality and charm 😱😱😱😱 so its true whats on the inside that counts xxxxx
I am insecure about nearly everything it made me anti social.. i know the harmful effects its causing but don't know how I can fight it..It all started happening after I was rejected and dumped by my only childhood love which I was crazy about for 8 years of my life.. but I was not good enough for him just because I was not that beautiful and an average looking girl.. since then my confidence is shattered .. but I will try to find it back thanks for the video it really gave me some hope..
Remember that everyone has a story. Don't use that story as a reason to not be involved with people and life. I was beautiful and yet couldn't get over someone for 8 yrs who just didn't feel the same way. Now married for 32 years to a man who saw my heart. I see you wrote this a year ago. I truely hope you have stopped using this story to stay alone.
i have been told by several people that when i laugh i sound like a hyena, this has caused me to try to suppress laughing around guys and i know that there are guys that i think he's so cute but he couldn't possibly be in to someone like me
jordan stocker GURL EMBRACE YOUR BEAUTIFUL LAUGH
someone out there will find it contagious and it will make them happy. i cackle like a witch sometimes people find it creepy sometimes people find it hilarious. moretime hilarious lol
You know how to make yourself stop feeling insecure about that? turn it on it's head and turn it into a compliment. I know that's meant to be regarded as a bad thing but seriously...have you ever seen footage of a hyena? it's "laugh" to me sounds so happy- like it's found something hilarious and is having the time of it's life! why wouldn't you want to sound like that?! plus a laugh of that magnitude is infectious and can often lead other people to joining in. It's the best kind of laugh to have! It's obvious and happy and just awesome to hear! so you go ahead and laugh your heart out at whatever you want to because no one should make you feel like you can't laugh because that's like being told you can't have fun or that you can't express having fun and no one (friends, family, partners, etc.) should ever tell you that.
Bones Zebrina I snort when I laugh. I embrace it, embrace your laugh. If you do that, the right guy won't mind.
Marianna P I have yet to actually meet anyone who is put off by someone who snorts when they laugh! You should embrace it, it's adorable (I mean I don't know how the media ever portrayed it as a bad thing? because I've honestly never met anyone who didn't like it or at least find it funny! it's cute!) and you're right the right guy won't care either (heck maybe he'll snort when he laughs too!)
I wish that pale and fat was still in fashion. I could be a model
Maggie S I wish I had your pale skin
Girl you’re a freakin model no matter what’s “in fashion” 😉 own it gorgeous
But cant you loose some weight and get some tan? its not tha complicated
I don't recall being fat ever being in fashion
@@bobbobby475 Look up old paintings (baroc And renesans i Think)
People consider me beautiful yet, I always like the ''ugly guy'' and people always wonder why. But even though I don't like the hot guy, I like the dorky or nerdy guy...
Half of this comment made sense, the other half was so poorly worded.
Fueler aww hope it works out, try talking to her though. Sometimes people are put off by letters.
same
Joe Bird that's very interesting I'm attracted to different looking types of guys. Not the typical.
Yup ditto
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..
But yeah, beauty is in the feeling a person gives you.
A person that makes you feel good, will make you think positive about that person, which makes that person beautiful in our heart.
I am curvy, not fat, but not thin either. I have a good sense of humor. I am a very loving woman.
@@rachels1616
YES GAL keep up the confidence
What if I'm more self concious about my personality than my looks?
it's all about rocking what u have. knowing who you are and how to rock it.
+Viva Glam wow, I thought I was the only one...
+Adagio Dazzle ahahaha I say soo many random things I can't even give an example :) But it is part of who you are and if people don't accept that then they are just superficial! I mean you can also make a joke out of it ...
+Adagio Dazzle I hope you are under 14 at least or else that's just uncomfortable.
Viva Glam sameeeeeee!!!!!
I can't stand when men tell me I have a beautiful personality, and what a great person I am ... yet follow up with but you would be drop dead flawless if you lost a few pounds. I have gained weight because I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and after they performed surgery to remove my thyroid I gained weight. I work out 5 days a week and eat well but it doesn't come off . my Dr says people with hypothyroidism struggle severely with weight gain and trying to shed pounds. personally I am OK with it I have come to embrace my size 14 and learned to live with this incurable disease because I eat right I just can't control the weight I pack on . what can I do so that this isn't an issue .
Go on Bbw sites. There are amazing guys on Bbw dating sites. I found them to be of a higher calibre than usual men to be honest.
Yikes! I have hypothyroidism too, but I didn't get my gland removed, neither do I plan to. I read a book called "Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms When My Lab Tests are Normal?" and it opened my eyes to a lot of things. Thankfully, I did research on hypothyroidism before the book as well so reading it only solidified the info I found.
It turns out you don't have to get your thyroid gland removed, in fact it's discouraged in a lot of cases. I'm afraid you went to the wrong doctor/person when getting that procedure done because there IS a way to permanently fix hypothyroidism: it involves blood tests that determine where the problem originally started and developing a mainly eating-based plan that will simultaneously diminish the symptoms while healing itself to being a complete reversal. Most people don't even know they have hypothyroidism, let alone how to properly fix it.
PANCAKES PANCAKES racist.
Kristina Arce you're inspiration to me right now. God has blessed your spouse to be. Your mindset should go for all girls/boys. I hope you have a good day or anyone else that's reading this. God bless. :)

i'm 17 years old asian girl living in Europe. I have small eyes (two days ago during a lesson when I was looking down on my textbook my teacher asked me if I'm sleeping) But I still really like my eyes! They have a dark and pretty brown color. What I used to hate about them but now quite like is that one eye is bigger than another! I'm gonna love myself and not care what other people say!
+Huska Kt good for you! and what a ignorant thing for that so called educator to say to you.
This description sounds just like me. Age, Asian in Europe, one eye bigger than another 😂
***** You are Mongolian, aren't you? Bi bas mongol huun shuu
+Huska Kt You go girl! I wish the rest of Asia, especially places such as South Korea, felt the same!
+jennifer kang I know right? I think asian women really should embrace our natural beauty rather than trying to fit into more western standards. Especially as you mentioned Koreans, their women are so georgous! Btw I am so touched by the support I got 😘
Just watched this. My special beauty feature is my radiant smile and optimism. I always look for something positive in a situation or a person.
you are so articulate and so bang on as well. i try and explain this idea to people all the time when they make self-deprecating comments about their looks (as a model, you tend to hear this a lot from people, both girls and guys) and i find it so heartbreaking. I am as insecure as the next person about my looks, even though i get paid for them (in the modelling business one minute you're hot, the next you're not so you learn to not rely on your looks too much), but I know real beauty is an attitude and it comes from confidence in yourself. And that confidence need not stem from your looks alone (although it can, but if that's the only place from which you draw your self esteem from well that isn't confidence, that's vanity and arrogance). It should be drawn from the deep well of who you are as a person. Cos to be truly beautiful you have to be a good person with a good heart.
I think looks do matter at some extent, I mean we are biologically attracted to beauty of a person's appearance or else the model industry would've gone doomed. Taking care of your skin and body is a sign that not only makes you look attractive but also shows you take care of yourself. Ofcourse the features you're born with can't be changed but the package your given can be improved.
ur so naive underlying factor is not beauty its personality
+Serlom Cole Lol you're so naive for thinking personality is everything. obviously you're insecure about your looks that's why you're coming up with such statements. The funny thing is you are telling this to me in this video. Admit it you wouldn't be even here if this was just like some average looking guy who doesn't take care of his hair, body and skin. Sure beauty is subjective but appearance isn't honey. In this world appearance is a major factor cause visual image is the first thing our brain receives. That's why we hear "don't judge a book by it' s cover" or else we wouldn't. Appearance will help you everywhere, in profession, in social life and in love life too.If a person doesn't care about his appearance like his skin,hair and body it tells a lot about him too. Of course appearance isn't everything in relationship, you sure won't date someone who is good looking but is an asshole. People should just take care of their hair, body and skin. Are they good looking or not is subjective.
+Serlom Cole Also appearance (being presentable) and beauty are two different thing. I am thinking you took my words in wrong way. Beauty is very subjective but appearance isn't but at the same times it shouldn't be everything. People should be confident about their looks and look presentable.
saniyauzumaki am not insecure about my looks am very confident as he has explained in the video he just said that the dumbest thing anyone can do is sit around n mop n complain about their looks coz no one in this freaking world chose which race to be born with twas involuntary so no one should tek credit for that as it isnt an achievement rather he said pple should add value to the world n b best they can b thats more attractive than just mere dumb looks....i meant after looks the underlying factor is personality coz personality keeps bonds stronger....i have been in a situation where i wasnt attracted to a guy but we started chatting n i fell hard over him coz of his personality...
Angie, my dear girl just because you get older does not necessarily mean you are going to have medical issues. I am old as dirt and I am in perfect health. I can run, play racquetball, work out for 2 hours go swimming and I can walk for 4 miles after that. That was me today.You have to stay active eat healthy, keep your mind young and you can still look good! Look at Suzanne Summers, Christie Brinkley, Harris Ford, etc.
I never appreciate my strength! I have severe trauma, have been verbally, physically, and sexually abused countless times and abandoned by the ones I love so many times but I'm still here and still fighting. I'm proud of myself. I do have insecurity, but I choose to love my disproportionately large boobs and narrow hips and braces and stomach that isn't quite toned yet but will be as I keep working and taking care of my mental health and drinking water and concentrating on whether I am full or not so I don't accidentally binge on healthy food. I'm 17 years old and I'm strong. If he doesn't like me that way, honestly that's fine. He doesn't owe me anything. But thank you for making this video! I keep telling myself he's too attractive for me but 99% of the feelings for him developed because I saw his beautiful heart. And yeah he's fucking hot but I don't get nervous around guys that are just hot. I treat those guys as an equal. But him! He is hot and has a beautiful heart and I fuck up all the time. But he just doesn't care and it's an amazing quality. Whether he likes me or not, I really hope to get a friendship out of this because people like that don't come around often. But non matter what, I am worthy of love.
Well said. Remember :YOU ARE WORTH IT! :)
Morgan Parker made me smile! sometimes I feel so fucking thankful for things in this world and this comment is such a gift. you rock. I am worth it. usually when I like guys it gives me anxiety and stomach problems and fear and stress and shit like that but honestly I don't spend every second thinking of him. its not a burden to have feelings for him. I embrace that shit! you are worth it too!
N. Fer. Ⓥ I feel you. You are so much stonger than you realize! I have a trauma from my childhood and been in bad relationships after that. Gone through verbally and physically abusement. Narsicism leaves deep scars and wrecks your self-esteem. Trauma effects your life completely. This said, I broke up with my boyfriend this year cause he was also abusive to me. I found the strenght to break the habit and I'm so proud of me! I was strong enough because I believed that I am meaningful, worthy and deserve to be treated with respect and caring. Remember that you are always worth of love and compassion. The road to deal with the trauma is quite long but the process makes you truly strong and conscious about the important things in life. Remember: you are good enough.
Look for Jesus and everything is gonna be fine, be strong!
N. Fer. Ⓥ People will tell you to get over it, but they never tell you how. One of the best things I ever did for myself was join Celebrate Recovery. It's free, it's worldwide, and it opened up a whole new world for me. My anxiety, insecurity, hurt, fear and resentments are all gone. I couldn't give it a higher recommendation. ♡
The part about myself I feel under-appreciated is that I try no matter what.. I try my best at everything and give everything of what I got
I get sad when guys say " I love short girls, not tall girls" lol
Rax Orx um.. K thanks
Rax Orx I know lol, I just didn't know how to respond.
Rax Orx well I'm kind of in the middle, almost short. You?
As I'm 5ft9/10, I know how horrible that is. However, I've heard other tall girls have a go at guys for preferring short girls, but these same girls then say how they could never date someone shorter than them which literally makes no sense.
Manatee()5 am short 😁 ✌
I love my personality, my lips, eyebrows, hair, but most importantly my huge heart that i've given to the wrong people at times
Hey Matthew.Thank you so much for this video. This is the first time i have come across such a great explanation about objective beauty and perceived beauty. I think we get so caught up in the objective beauty because we are so exposed to it that we forget that it's not realistic to try to keep up with that in real life. They're two different things. You did an amazing job of explaining it.
First off, respect for being you and not bending towards the whims of others. Second, beauty is a very gray area, and respect for tackling it.
As a guy, I look for the values a girl has over looks and most of my friends do the same. If you are a nice girl that contributes to a relationship, a lot of guys will chase you.
I wish there were more guys like you all.
Once the chase is over, men don't even care what a woman does and starts to believe she does 'nothing'. No wonder women are on sexual rampages these days. Men are not fair.
Shut up men only love it when you treat them like trash
stop lies dude
Why is it that all the Matthews (Matt) that I know or know of are all dam good looking!!
yeah mathews r hot
Yeah ! Matthew Hussey, Matthew Hitt, Matthew Daddario, Matthew Lewis, Matthew Grey Gubbler, Matthew Goode, Matthew Paetz, Matthew Morrison... Matthews are damn hot
+hinde64 it's a strange but wonderful thing😊.
+hinde64 And Matt Smith lmao
Matt Dallas? ;)
if symmetry was everything I'd be screwed forever. My eyebrows are crooked and I'm NOT drawing or filling them in. My mouth is a bit crooked when I speak as well. I think that there's hope for everyone because my husband loves my asymmetrical self!
The most attractive feature is someone who shows they genuinely like you for you. Not for what you can do for or to them. Someone with true heart.
Well i think my best feature is the fact I can always make myself laugh, I think im hilarious. 🤣😂.
Keira B that made me laugh!! So cute 😃
Your hair is nice too
Regular Dude oh thank you!! 🙂
You would be a fun friend to have too I bet 😊
Idk you but I bet you are hilarious 🤣
My Mum always told me, 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' so if they think u have beauty - DON'T QUESTION IT.
I love my cheekbones even though nobody else notices
I like how good I am at drawing
I like how stupid I am / funny
This is me. Lol. I'm insecure but I feel this about myself too. Thank you for sharing; it's a good reminder. *sigh*
Same, I like many things about myself no one cares about lol
But I compliment other women on those, too 😌 I was having lunch with my co-worker and she had dimples just like mine)
I don't even like anything about myself
i really think this is the best video you ever made; whenever im at my lowest during my dating journey i turn to this video for solace and hope
This is a nice message. I've never heard it described like this before
Starts at 3:34 😊
Chiara Cu haha NO KIDDING 🤣
Hey Mathew, I came about your video by accident and clicked on it simply because of your looks and what a surprise I had after hearing what you had to say. I personally suffer from insecurities at a high level which have held me back in every single way. I don't find myself attractive enough to win someone's heart, I actually never had. Friends say there is no way I'm not attractive but due to my high level of insecurity I think they are only saying to keep me happy. Your comment really is very enlightening and I will try to explore my perceived beauty because based on what you said, it is what is most important about us human beings ( I take that's the point you tried to make right?). By the way you are very attractive man and. Wish I had only a small part of your beauty and well spoken attitude :)
LOL I thought this said are you PETTY enough? I was like nah, teach me how to be more petty!
I love this. I certainly would change a few of my physical features if I could, but you just have to learn to live with it. Find someone who adores your quirks, flaws, and imperfections. Perfection is not only unrealistic, but boring as well.
Put glasses to this guy: Hi Harry Potter!
Especially the way he talks! Oh my gosh I thought I was the only one who thought so!
I haven't realised that ...OMG hahaha
I Just see this vid for this ressemble i was lost in UA-cam as usually the way better is you you off the sound of this vid but you let the vid on and you put harry potter's sound try it ;) (sorry i'm not English i don't know if what i said is understandable)
When i first saw him, i thought exactly like that 😂
+Maxime Max His voice is really similar to Daniel Radcliffe's LOL
why do i always eat when i watch these? i always die laughing and the food gets caught in my throat/nose
hahahha hehe
😂😂😂
Omg 😂😂😂
Samantha F I do too!
Samantha F thank you these comment made me laugh so much. Your funny
That word "personality" is the most nauseating word when you're ugly and get told about personality 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
1000000000000000%
True.
Or that ur a good person 🙄🙄🙄
@@freeyourdreama7822 Friend zoned there and then. Life is not fair.
Let's be honest: looks matter! Both make and female. Make the most of what you have. Take care of your skin and your body! People who look good, feel good and it shows.
UA-cam recommended this video. Good stuff! Preach it Matthew! I was insecure about things I couldn't really change like my skin, hair, voice, height lol dumb stuff really. I was bullied for all that, but my personality is so bomb and they were just missing out. I'm hilarious 😂 and extremely caring. The WHOLE package lol So there's that 👸🏽 But really, I love my heart. I can be so generous, empathetic, friendly and all that good stuff but I think it gets overlooked. 🙃
under appreciated about me: Being intelligent. It´s always my laugh, my presence and my face that do the trick... I just wish for someone to notice me secretly being intelligent and telling me how wonderfull that is.
"I'm not concerned with being PC - it's never been my style." - ♡♡♡ Hope you haven't changed!
I’m am very kind-and I hope this is the energy people get from me! I’m a hair stylist, so nothing makes me more happy than making some one look good!! I had one lady, after I finished her hair, say “ do you think my husband will fall in love with me all over again?” How awesome is that!! She felt new and revived!
Today I'm going to appreciate my smile!
This is good! I used to be SOOO insecure about my height. Why? Cuz I've seen it ALL over FB that girls like tall guys. Truth is the posts had a package and I was focusing on what I didn't have. Truth is... I had everything else! I am happy! 😃
"Comparison is the thief of joy" - Theodore Roosevelt :)
All girls don't like tall guys. To me there is nothing sexier than a shorter guy with an athletic body. I don't mean he has to be built like a football player at all. I mean broad shoulders, trim waist and masculine carriage. Actually, long legs on a tall guy creep me out, and tall guys never age well; they become stooped, whereas shorter guys go on being sexy into their 60's because they are still that combination of boyish and masculinity.
whats with you youtubers being sexy as hell
qaf lover we uglies know our place to stay away from videos and cameras
I often tried not to like someone whenever I realized I liked him because I felt he deserves a better woman who is more beautiful than me. :( This video makes me think in a different perspective about beauty and feel more confident. Thank you!!
"I'm going to talk about women right now since I'm here to help you guys."- Matthew Hussey
This is the hand I was dealt. How am I going to play this hand? I am going to own it. Because any man or woman that doesn't think that I am beautiful isn't going to phase me. I know who I am.
I have felt like I wasn't beautiful but have always been told I'm to beautiful but I still don't get asked out on dates I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
if you’re just relying on your looks then you’re doing a lot wrong. Your outer beauty can only get you so far. Work on your personality
oof i have the same problem, i guess we gotta be more open to others but idk how to do that, i tend to be a pessimist and idk how to fix thaat ughhhhhhh
I would say... It's because you have to perceive your own beauty ♥️
Don't chase man and work on your personality .
SOML
I'm am going through a process of distancing myself from someone who is just playing with me.Thanks God I fell upon your website and its helping me cope and become self confident and knows what I really want. Thank Mr Matthew.
I’ve got beautiful long eyelashes and big eyes. I also love how outgoing I am when I meet new people, everyone admires my confidence. Thank you matthew for this video
Wow I'm reading this after 2 years, today in 2021. I was feeling sad and vulnerable again. I got dumped my someone I loved and now I started questioning myself and how I look. And reading my own comment on this video that I wrote 2 yrs ago makes me feel sad that I have not changed even though my situations have changed for good. Well dear Oorja from past. I thank you for the present. And I won't disappoint you. I love you and I will take care of you in future.
When I'm happy, i try to make everyone around me happy.
And when i am I sad, i like to make myself isolated.
i've been so insecure about my height being too tall always got me depressed even though people say they love my height and they wished they were tall like me...i still don't believe it and even if i see shoes which are high heels that i would love i wouldn't wear them
zarah leena I feel ya! I'm 5'7 And everyone in my family is much shorter than I. Took me a long time to stop caring as much. Still bothers me on an occasion, specially in the dating world. Where I live the men tend to be on the shorter side. On another note, I've had more men tell me they find my height more elegant and sexy than the shorter woman. If you rock it with confidence it becomes super sexy and admirable. Makes us stand out!
thanks that really helped
I´m 4´11´´....do you wanna split? :))) i get to be taller, because EVERYONE is taller than me- so not nice...and you get to be shorter...tho, like most people tell you...height is a quality.
zarah leena I'm 5'3" and I'll take some of your height off your hands. The only thing I like about being short is dating but climbing counters to get things and not being able to see when folks stand up at events gets old. Either way, our differences are what makes us beautiful in our own way. A confident woman whether 5' or 6' is a sight of beauty.
I'm 5'3 too...it is what it is. Whoever the man is, he will love you for who you are. No matter what your height is. If they are stuck with the physical such as height, he's shallow anyways.
How in the world could someone not like you!!! You are amazing and so kind and intelligent. I appreciate your advice
