Description
I met a girl once who told me I was pretty.I simply shook my head and laughed, then in a manner so as to not make her feel stupid for saying such a thing, I answered,
"Oh, thank you so much! I think you're pretty to!"
To where she commented,
"Oh no! You're just being nice!"
The thing is, she was indeed pretty, the kind of pretty that made you feel like a lucky idiot to even be looked at by her.
This happened many times with many people of both gender. Boys who didn't think they were cute, girls who thought they were too fat. To me though, they were the most beautiful people in the world.
There were many I fell in love with only to find that beauty is skin deep, but in a few they were pretty all the way through.
How sad that many of them never stood a chance int he real world? Because, who want's a pretty inside?
The answer sadly is no one, no one want's a pretty inside, because if it's on the inside, who will see it first?
The shallows of the world have taken over, so many pretty people become left out int he cold, killed out socially and literally day after day.
But here is my opinion...
You Are Pretty.
If you're overweight, you're pretty.
If you're deformed, you're pretty.
If you're damaged, you're pretty.
If you're shy, you're pretty.
If you speak your mind without a care of what other people will think of you, you are so pretty.
Any thing you can think of that woudl give you the slightest idea that you are ugly or unattractive, I find it pretty, beautiful, sexy.
I find that the pretty ones are always the ones who don't believe it. Sad huh?
So now I go back to the begining. They told me I was pretty.
So am I pretty?
...
No.
They were just being pretty.
I was the one being nice...

What if you're any one of those things and a complete monster on the inside? I don't believe everybody who is flawed is pretty because they could be just as horrible as the next. Regardless though, your picture is pretty.

I don't get the last part. Are you saying you're not pretty or they're not pretty?

One thing I hate about being called pretty is that almost always people accompany the phrase "You look pretty" with the word "today," thus drastically changing the meaning...
Anyway, everybody's pretty, but hopefully it's not just skin deep.
This piece was truly... True.

I think what she's saying is that being pretty can also be in personality.
So when she says
"They were just being pretty.
I was the one being nice..."
She means that person has a pretty personality, she doesn't believe she is pretty.
I think...

haha I like this. It shows us all that we aren't really alone. Many go through what we go through. I have actually been told that I'm hansom a few times. Even though I smile and thank them It is hard for me to really believe them. I have understandable reasons for this...or "excuses" is more the truth...

I think you're very pretty. Very, very nice funny story is I just did a sketch of #93 Give up for my 100 pic chalenge and this is the 2 quotes:
"Can a woman with my past ever be pretty?"
On the mirror is written in the POV of Sweeney:
"Not like my Lucy"
She thinks she's not pretty so she's giving up on life. 2 mins later I check to make sure pretty is spelled correctly by doing a deviantART seach and end up here. Spooky right?
Any way really really great peace really inspirational I love it.
