Today, I realized how bad my feelings of inadequacy compared to other women and jealousy are when I started thumbing down songs on Pandora simply because the cover art had a better looking woman than me on it. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out that the very good-looking woman who sings for one of my favorite bands is actually a guy. FML
Today, I finally realized that when my seemingly very judgmental fiancé makes negative comments about other women, it's actually just an excuse to keep ogling them. FML
Today, while I was on Spotify with smart shuffle enabled, it started playing a really stupid, but funny song I'd never heard in my life. I then looked at the cover and realized the song playing was AI-generated. I don't want to live on this planet anymore. FML
Today, I realized my friends were right about my obsession for my only son when I found myself genuinely jealous when I heard he recently got a new girlfriend. FML
Today, needing some new music, I logged on to YouTube and clicked "Like" on a few different tracks I enjoy, hoping to spark some good suggestions from the algorithm. My “Personal Mix” now consists of boring, generic techno remixes, with videos showing 100% half-naked women and fast cars. FML
Today, I realized just how pathetic my life is when I found myself fascinated by videos that a woman posts on YouTube of her removing ingrown hairs and zits from people’s private areas. FML
Today, I realized I’m so lonely that I actually got jealous while watching Shrek. FML
Today, I realised I like Britney Spears. FML
Today, I realized my self confidence is based on the amount of "likes" I have on my Facebook statuses. FML
Today, after years in a relationship I realized that my partner does not like the music I listen to, the food I cook, the pictures I take, the way I dress. The only thing she likes is when I take her out to eat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Sounds like you should seek some sort of counseling.

you're comparing yourself to literally less one percent of the population - one percent that actually make it into the entertainment business that is. focus on your admirable qualities . you have em :) we all do

You really should stop comparing yourself to everyone else. Even if someone is prettier than you, it shouldn't matter because they could have some major personality flaw, or not. Either way you are who you are and can't change that. Accept it and love yourself instead of making yourself miserable forever by focusing on the flaws you have.

It's pretty hard to think that when people look at you in disgust unless your hair is straight.

It's unrealistic to think that. The chick that has the straight hair and the make up piled on looks just as plain without it, if not worse because it has ruined her hair/skin. And honestly, the people that give dirty looks will do it anyways, if not for one thing then for another. People move on so quickly anyways though, when someone judges you it's for how long? 30 seconds when you pass by and then they never think of you again. Nobody really cares, only you do.

Except that's the point. It's just like a demon in your head telling you to hate how you look, the more you try to accept how beautiful you are.. the more it gets worse. You want to ignore it, but it just keeps coming back telling you that you should hate yourself.

Sometimes if you want to do something, you just have to do it. You can make as many excuses as you want but it's easy to replace bad thoughts with good ones after you start doing it. I'm not saying stare at yourself in the mirror and list what you like about yourself like some sort of lame self help exercise (unless that works for you). I think some people would feel a lot better if they focused on simple things and just take a minute to be grateful or to just relax and not think too much. Read a book, play a video game or something.

yeah, I use to many excuses. which is pretty sad.. But thank you for trying to help anyone's self esteem on here. it's true, lots of girls and guys just feel like they have to look gorgeous to get through life. Actually, I've been going to the library very often.. books are great for your mind. just relaxes you and takes you to another world through your mind. (well for me).

People like you are the reason some of my friends get their ass beat. So someone is more attractive then you who cares probably you only think that. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder ya nut

You should listen to "Your Beautiful"....but Christina is considered pretty so you might not be able to :/

Here's a thought everyone is beautiful in there on way

Sweetie, you could be the most beautiful girl ever, but, with a personality like that, that makes you dog ugly! Change your outlook on life and make your heart beautiful, and it'll show on the outside. And you'll be as beautiful as the women you're 'thumbing down'. :)

You're welcome darlin'! That's what I'm here for! ;)

You sound like a whining bitch OP. OT doesn't matter what someone looks like, it's their personality that counts. You are who you are, be happy with yourself.

Love yourself, doll! And a woman should have more to offer than just looks.
