GOD..She was UGLY!!
>:( Ok..here's the story. I went to the grocery store last night around 7pm to pick some diapers up for my babies. It was fairly busy...I walked in keeping to myself. Got to the diaper isle..to find a young couple about 20..they were shopping and stepped back to let me pass. I picked up my diapers and to my surprise they were both standing staring at me still..the girl had her hands on her hips looking right at my face like I'm gonna kill you..(you girls know that look). So I walked by thinking OK..whatever! ::) NOT 2 seconds later..as I was walking to the cash register..2 guys were walking toward me and split off on to either side of me..as they walked by one of the guys found it necessary to say "God.. She was ugly"! WTF..I immediately stopped and yelled "Your UGLY too ASSHOLE"..omg..There must have been at least 30-40 people..completely stop what they were doing and talking and everything to stare at me. I then said "What the hell are you all staring at?..What am I supposed to say when some guy is calling me ugly for no reason at all". NO ONE said a word!! They looked at me like "serves her right"....in fact the little blonde checkout girl was laughing at ME..because of what the guy said..and was making sure I new it. Everything seemed like it was in slow motion. I would like to know if other of you girls have got this type of reaction in regular settings like..grocery stores, restaurants, ect...Do people stop to stare at you with contempt because of the way you look..EVEN when people don't know you are a dancer. Do people (you don't know) go out of their way to pick you apart? Is this just a phenomenom in my area? Am I nuts?

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
That has never happened to me but Girl the way you look at your age, don't sweat it. Jealousy is all it is.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Strange. I never had that happen. From guys ? No. Now some people may stare, and i wonder why, but never say anything.
I had ladies say rude comments to me before, but i can't waste the time saying anything back. First i don't want to get my butt kicked. And second who cares ? I don't. If someone says you are ugly, i think they are looking for a reaction, don't give them one and they are LOST.
Don't sweat it hun! There are alot of rude ones in the world to deal with. Best policy next time, go on ignore....If you put up the wall, they can't break it down!

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
I can't believe that happened. I'm sorry. I have never had that happen but I can't say that I would react any differently. I would probably get mad and shoot my mouth off too, however, I'm Irish and spent a lot of time in Boston! Haha. I come by it honest!

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
I'm so sorry Holiday!!!! Don't even sweat it! I had a similiar thing happen at the mall this weekend (I NEVER go to the mall). I was shopping at Victoria's Secret and minding my own business, looking for a bra and in my experience my boobs are a little big for their bras, so I was looking for anything in a 36 or 34 D or DD. I couldn't find anything on the rack so I asked for help. The lady comes up to me and says "Honey I don't think you need something that big, let's look for something in your size." I was appalled! She straight up told me that I don't know what size I am. I said "do you want to measure me because that's what size I am, I know." She said that she thought in her professional opinion that I was around a 36 B. Professional opinion, MY ASS. I went along with what she said to just shut her up and show her, I put it on and I even had her come in the dressing room with me to show her it was WAY too small. Even then she said there must be something up with the way they made the bra, it must run small.
I had so much trouble with her that I went to another sales lady and blatantly asked her to measure me right in front of the other chick, and when the other one said 34 DD all I said was HA! Took my size out of the hand of the lady and paid for it and left. I just couldn't believe she said that! Some people!

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Sounds to me like you live in a place with a lot of very insecure and stupid people who have way too much time on their hands. I can think of better things to do than go around trying to get a rise out of a complete stranger just for the hell of it. It also sounds to me like those young guys were just trying to get their thrills by messing with people. They obviously have way too much time on their hands. Somehow people like that are blessed with lots of money which gives them lots of time. Of course you are not ugly at all. You are very pretty. I am surprised that you would even give them the thrill of letting them upset you like that. You would be better off just laughing it off like the beautiful, glamorous queen that they wish they could have a chance with, but know they never will.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
I have noticed people like to stare, not cuz we are ugly but because we are so darn fine ;D Men just can't help it and the women wish they could be us. As for haveing big boobs, I got em! Go ahead and stare lol On the other hand omg is there a booger hanging out of my nose? Do I have a zit on the tip of my nose? Why are you staring at me?????? :-[

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Don't sweat it Holiday! You are a very pretty girl in my opinion. Some guys bulls*** like that on pretty girls because they know they can't have you. Trust me, I've had my fair share of guys tell me I'm ugly, or they give me this appalled look on their faces. Let it go! Beauty is only skin deep. You have a wonderful personality to reflect your outter body. Alot of people dont possess both.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
OMG Winter! I get those statues all the time! Or the girls who you are walking towards in a crowded shopping area and when you get closer to them you realize that they are not going to move but just keep walking, causing you to stop and move to the side to let them through. GRRR! [grr] I hate those people.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
I've had similar things happen to me but not by as many people as you at the one time Holiday. I'm sorry for their actions in embarrasing you so. That is awful.
Just try and forget about it. I think that attitude is terribly stupid but at least it's not a character trait you have.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday were those guys with the couple?I think younger kids today just have no respect,when I was trick or treating with my 7 yr old daughter,this young like 15 year old girl was aslo trick or treating and almost knocked us over and was like girl she better watch it ,to herfriend,I aslo get it in the mall and elsewere too,girls saying stuff when I walk by and Iam like you I dont ignore and I have to say things back,dont worry,you are NOT UGLY,they probably were jealous because they know a pretty girl like you wouldnt date them.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday, you're very very pretty. Women can be so jealous and as far as those two little shitheads go, they probably just felt like BIG MEN because they could finally vent some of their deep resentment toward all the pretty girls who ever denied them. They're losers. Sounds like the bystanders in the grocery store were too. I would have said the same thing. Screw all of those people. You got the "she deserves it" look because insecure people WANT to see goodlooking girls get put down. People can really suck sometimes, ugh. Next time something like that happens, just think to yourself what ugly people they are inside and out. It's no wonder they are miserable. Nobody who is truly happy and content with themselves and their own lives would ever find it necessary to make it a point to put down another female.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
If they called you ugly they need to have their eyes checked hon because you are a very pretty girl. Thats so weird to me that someone would say that about you ??? Are you sure it was about you?
I have had people do double takes and stuff like that, got nasty looks from other chicks ( usually because their husband or bf is checking me out) but what you just described is like a Twilight Zone episode. So sorry you had to deal with such idiots Holiday
-
Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
it happens to me all the time - being called 'freak', getting the icy stares and comments under the breath from housewives and girlfriends. Yes it hurts if you let it. The secret is not to let it! They're just jealous.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday,
Don't live in Maine? Not to knock people who live in small towns, but sometimes people who live in small towns have a lot of time on their hands. I once had a long distance relationship w/ a guy that lived in British Columbia. We are not talking Vancuver here, but Vancuver Island in a town so far north that across the way was Alaska. This was a town that even the customs guys at the airport had never heard of. It was that rural. BTW, this guy was a fisherman, but physically a fine specimen. Anyway, people, including his friends used to stare at me and most didn't even know what to say. It was as if they had never met anyone from a city before! It was really annoying. The best thing this town had going for it was scenery and fresh fish, good sushi :-/
Maybe that is what was happening to you. I think you are really attractive and I would die to be as thin as you!
They probably couldn't handle being around someone as exotic as you.
Let it go! You'll feel much better.
[cheers]

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Yeah, this was said to me once, but in GRADE SCHOOL!!! By little boy I didn't want to play with and ignored. So this sounds so funny when it happens with grownups.
Holiday, whenever I see your picture I think you look angelic. You're so not ugly that if I were you I'd find it absolutely impossible to take anywhere near personal. And so, the whole thing is not your problem in the least. Hope you're not upset over it. Besides, you're the one making money with your looks.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Thanks for all the replys...I am glad to see I am not the only one who has experienced this....well not glad..lol you know what I mean..but this is the ONLY place I could ask that question without getting shot down like I am an arrogant B*tch....if I went into an aol chatroom..chicks would be like ..Who doe's she think she is? lol..I feel much better now..I know I am not ugly..I put up with that in grade school too..I was just totally thrown off by the reaction that everyone had toward me...I finally blew up that night..I usually TAKE IT..it just caught me wrong and I think since it won't stop..I might fight back like a little b*tch for a while..he he. I did feel like I took some power back. ..I also agree with Corey that it's the area. I can't wait to leave Maine and dance. It does still feel strange that an entire community can sort of ostracize a person..my kids experience this crap at school (the other kids don't know I dance) but my girls put up with comments about the way I look. Crazy..kind of like discrimination I guess. NUTS..but I get lots of revenge when I see those wedding rings on the guys I dance for..lol
Holiday...la la la de da

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday, you look pretty to me. nd even if you weren't why would they say that? Just ignore them, or kick them in the balls.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday, it's insecurity on the part of those twerps. They think that putting others down will lift their self esteem. They're wrong, so don't sweat it and stay as you are ;)
-
Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
it kinda strange that someone would just say that but i guess the best thing is to ignore those fools ... its obvious that they thought enought about you to even try to say somthing to you...don't even let that bother you

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday your far from ugly!

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
Holiday. those guys are why the moose are scared in Maine.
Beauty is skin deep but a**holedom goes all the way through.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
That's terrible behavior! You are gorgeous, but that isn't even at issue here. I think they were trying to take you down a peg or something.
Maybe you could have said in a loud voice "Wow, the drugs in this town are really potent!" Why would people want to pick on a woman alone anyways?
I have run into the statues too, I thought it was just me! Thought I was invisible to people or something. When in a good mood it doesn't matter to me, but when in a bad mood I are horrible. I will say things like, "yes, ugly people first!" Then I feel really bad about stooping to their level.

Re: GOD..She was UGLY!!
They MUST have been laughing at the way you responded. You're not ugly. Even ugly people aren't treated like that, laughed at and all. I hate men, what assholes!!! You shoulda stuck your foot up his ass for good measure.
