im 16 from manchester but i cant find any one that is interested in me ive been called and laughed at in my life which has got my self confidence down about the way i look is their someone on this that can help me or if they think i am attractive then please tell me

I can't really help you directly buy I had a pretty awful time when I was kid too.

However gaming, especially table-top role-playing games, gave me some respite and helped me find a use for virtually every academic subject that I was being taught at school.

It didn't directly help me with bullies or finding dates but it allowed me to find some peace of mind, allowed me to keep working (despite it all) and made me as well-connected as I could ever hope for when I became a Software Developer, after my degree.

Track down the "Travelling Man" shop, there is a branch in Manchester, and you may be able to build a group of friends via playing sociable games.

This is the best advice that I can give you.

Hi, I feel the same way.

I bet loads of people feel the same way tho.

I feel for you.... I'm not big headed but think of myself as a decent enough looking fella and my confidence is crap and it's because of people opinions aswell. Honestly, from what ive learned you need to be a complete asshole to get girls, i know it sounds like the opposite of what you'd expect... but yes, asshole's get girls.

Unfortunitly, I don't plan on becoming an asshole so i look forward to many failed relations in the future.
