“If you only knew how much I love you, you would cry of joy” -Our Lady Queen of Peace, Medjugorje

0:47 so fascinating how many people wanna express complete joy but don't wanna express too much cause they don't want people to think that they've never been told this and reveal a vulnerable part of themselves. Maybe they're insecure because no one ever noticed them and they don't wanna reveal that to protect themselves.

I’ve certainly felt that way. I was bullied a lot as a kid for my height, weight, foot size you name it. When people call me beautiful I don’t know how to respond to that especially with my parents. I’ve responded to my mom telling me I’m beautiful by sarcastically saying “you’re just saying that cause you’re my mom” or “yeah right I’m Beautiful”. I have to remember God made everything good and beautiful and that applies to me. I may not always see my beauty but God does and that’s what counts.

A lot of young men feel this way. It is not good for man to be alone, but we are lonelier than ever, in friendships and romantic relationships, we lack them.

You are right... and its not just "not thinking" like that, that will help you stop. You can't "just get over it" or "just stop". I know this kind of advice stinks. Sorry, if you get that a lot. People really need to stop giving unhelpful advice like that.. they show by it.. They don't really know how it feels. They are trying to help, which is good, but they don't really understand they are not actually helping. Now some lies you need to untwist: Not ALL women are seeking shallow love.. You just haven't found one. Don't worry we are out there, and don't give up. Instead, give it to God... Put your time and effort in growing closer to God... and ask Him to bring someone to you. Get God involved. It might take time, He might take you in directions you never thought of. But It's worth it. I was laughed at for "waiting for marriage." Until I found my Husband... God will come through, but you gotta ask Him for the help, and follow where He leads. God Bless you.. You might feel lonely, but you are never alone. Trust in God.

Also, you don't have to find someone attractive to see their beauty in how God made them. I think majority of folks think that if you don't find them attractive that it means you find them ugly, which isn't always true... people who associate beauty with attraction are just ignorant or arrogant.

You can’t really force attraction if it’s not there. Dont date and marry someone you’re not attracted to. Attraction is in the book of Genesis. Eve was everything Adam ever wanted. I want my Eve too. 26 and still alone

So true! We find children to be beautiful, old people to be beautiful, flowers and sunsets to be beautiful but we obviously aren’t sexually aroused by any of those things. If you can only say that someone or something is beautiful if you’re sexually attracted to it, then you don’t know the true meaning of beauty.

This actually made me cry because, while I think I'm beautiful, there are some people in my life or those that were just passing by that made me feel unattractive or not beautiful.... it put a little resentment in me that I keep having to forgive and give to Jesus... I probably wouldn't believe someone if they told me they thought I was beautiful unless I dressed up. I can't imagine these people who don't think they're beautiful at all because many or someone said they weren't.

I have tried to live with very masculine traits as a woman. I think that when people see me they think I am not only just ugly but I feel like they are hiding the fact that they are feeling sick as if I am not even a human. I don't like going out in public because I don't think I look normal. Even watching this video I don't believe some of these people are good-looking, some of them are very ugly.
