'The colour of your eyes makes me feel sad' (they're literally slate grey)
'OMG your hair is like Elsa's!' (It's brown but has a weird blond streak at the front, I think they were referring to the character from frozen)
'I bet you're someone who smiles even in their sleep'


Sorry to double post but also I have grey-blue eyes so don't take that to heart, that person's weird and your eyes are intense and beautiful :smile:

Exactly! And who are they to comment? What did they look like at 16? We all have flaws and we all have insecurities, we are human so people should settle down and just let one another be.

Yep definitely hormones. The only definitive thing I ever found to impact this was medications / skincare products or routines.

If you're that determined then I'm sure youll find something helpful. Plus you're growing up all the time so your hormones should find their groove soon fingers crossed.
I have heard a veritable sea of remarks over the years including:

- Alien head
-The milky bar kid
- Harry potter
- Sven goran eriksson (sp?)

The latest is "Ben from Eastenders".

Only the dead can know peace from this hell.

My mum use to say I walk like a penguin lol. Everytime a penguin would come on TV my siblings would tease me lol. Thanks mum!

Few years back I lost weight. It was the lowest I ever managed to get. Someone asked me if I had been seriously ill. Someone else said I looked like I hadn't eaten for days. Bitches.

"You don't look like you come from (hometown). Girls there are usually rough with no teeth!"

I was once asked if I had botox because I had no wrinkles. I was 18 at the time.

The last one really is a compliment id say. Elsa from frozen is not brunette in any way so that's confusing.



Over heard ones of course are also bad but the ones to your face??! :eek3: who do these people think they are??


I live in Gosport. It's expected.

And besides I just laugh along with them. It's all good fun in the end.
I was walking my Shih Tzu dog in the park and this guy says, "You look just as beautiful as her"

I'm disappointed that anywhere can be classed as a place to expect this given they barely knew you it's like c'mon!

Glad you take it well, at least you are comfortable enough with yourself to not let it effect you negatively. :cool:

Haha, I always used to make fun of a guy in my form for the same reason. He was late everysingle day and would walk in with messy hair and bloodshot eyes.
The funniest thing is that he lives across the road from school.
Walked past a women at work and she stopped me and was like
'Your face looks like a porcelain doll'
She said it in a matter of fact sort of way so I wasn't sure if it was meant as a compliment or insult or what really. It was so random that I didn't know how to respond.
