Me too. It's shocking how many different mental disorders there are.

Here's a link to a really good article that will give you a good idea of what it's like. You don't need to read it just look at the pictures, they show images of people of how they believe they look and how they actually look.

Oh definitely. If one half of the couple truly believes that they are ugly and therefore not deserving of the relationship; or if a single person believes that they are ugly and therefore not deserving of any relationship, I think that it would take someone with a lot of determination and patience to try and break down that belief and help that person believe in themselves - and nowadays, in our society where there is a very strong, pervasive culture that insists you must look like something out of a magazine or you're ugly and worthless; most people do not have the time or patience to wait for the reserved, sad and unhappy guy or girl to come around and realise that they aren't all the horrible things they believe that they are; they'd rather chase someone who doesn't have that hang up because it's less hassle.

It's horrible, really, when you think about it. I'm glad you're getting help Kyle I don't remember what you look like but you seem like a really cool guy and you shouldn't be unhappy!
