Just a bump in the road. It'll get better I promise! Focus on making yourself happy right now, not getting chicks. Once you feel good and proud about yourself others will see it and you'll have more confidence with girls.
Theres this guy I work with, who has a bunch of acne, and hes super white so its real apparent. But his personality is really cool and hes funny, it makes him cute, and its like what acne? If I were single I would probly crush on him. I found out he has a girlfriend though, shes super pretty too!

UPDATE - 1.5 yrs later....

Before I start, I just wanna truly thank every single person that posted in thread. I actually mean it. I read every single post. It helped during that time I was feeling like shit. I read these posts and I would sit there with a smile on my face.


So after she broke up with me, I started going out more to get her off my mind. Went on vacation, went out every weekend. Still had acne/scars though, but I tried to act like I didn't. I forced myself to go out instead of sitting at home wallowing in self pity and thoughts about the whore. Did that for about half a year.

After that, I randomly meet my ex's friend and we hit it off LOL. I got her number, but she was dealing with personal issues so it started slow. I kept pushing and we started hanging out and eventually started dating and to be honest, I couldn't ask for a better girl in the world. She doesn't give a flying fuck that I have acne. She takes care of me the way I used to take care of my ex. For the first time in a long time, I had hope, I was honestly happy. I completely forgot about what happened with the ex.

Recently, I decided to check the whores facebook, and I see she's went through 4 other guys after me, run away from home with her boyfriend, having issues, smokes and drinks heavy etc. For some reason she randomly messages me to come clubbing with her LOL wtf. Obviously I declined but was still shocked.

Hopefully everything continues to go well (knock on wood)

Sounds too good to be true.....bitch dumps guy, guy dates her friend and discovers shes perfect, bitch suffers. but it's all true lol.
One and a half years ago, I would never think this would even be even remotely possible. Now I'm laughing.

The main thing is that you're happy. Good for you. Cool that you found a partner who is right for you, too.
Seems like your ex has been on a bit of a downward spiral, I guess that's harsh. Not really fair that anyone should struggle with stuff and I wouldn't laugh at them for it because that's not nice, but we all make our own choices I suppose and it seems she hasn't made very good ones...

I lost my virginity when i was 15 and im a guy and i couldnt imagine being a virgin but you just gotta go at it you only live once.

[Nelo18]

congrats man.

i started getting severe acne when i was 16 and stopped going out...but i was lucky to lost my virginity at 15. so yea.

although there was this one girl in high school. i liked her, she liked me, but whenever i had a big breakout and would shy away and i think she took it the wrong way. she started dating some other guy. i hated seeing them together and got a little depressed as well.

[heyjoe]

gonna be honest here. if she didnt care about your acne before and just brought it up now while breaking up with you then she most likely used it as an excuse to dump you for another guy she was probably flirting with/banging while you were together.... i doubt she even cares you had acne... sluts gonna slut

i remember MY breakup thread from...i think last year; i got dumped in front of everyone i worked with at our work party for my own brother, my ex was only with me to get close to him, and she flat out told me i was too ugly to date and just left, i was in shock for weeks, plus i worked with mostly women and thats ALL they talked about for months afterwards i ended up leaving that job over it.

I've been single since and im just working on my confidence, im not into any girls right now i have some female friends and they are a big help when i need to talk about something that would throw my guy friends off

My advice: forget about sex for now, convince yourself you ARE worth the greatest girls in the world for your entire persona, not just your looks. And spend some time with your boys just go out and have fun

I like that advice

Well. as for you bunpan,that's a good story. just keep on going and keep on improving yourself. Someday you'll find that THE ONE

Hey, I've been in the same situation. I'm young, but he broke up with me because people teased me about my skin and he found it embarrassing being around me. I feel uncomfortable when I'm around guys because I can see them looking at my skin. You probably feel that way too whenever you're around girls. In a way I think it's just our minds f*cking with us. The person was probably analyzing our faces and thinking "wow, i want to get to know this person.". Instead of "that acne is a huge turn- off...next!" Seriously, you never know what could actually be going through someone's head.
What I have to say is, be strong and learn to accept yourself. Your flaws too.

Don't lose hope though. The right girl will come and will accept you for everything that you are. I know you don't really want to hear that but hey..... things will get better.

My jaw DROPPED when I saw your post topic. I think I felt it crack too...

That girl was a TERRIBLE person. I mean... what?! Seriously??? Acne SCARS?! Is that the best she could come up with?! If you ask me, it was just a random reason that pop into her head just so she could date another guy or something. What you went through would be beyond comprehension to many people I know, and for the most ridiculous of reasons. Not only was that cruel, it was gut wrenchingly discusting.

I would have said a lot more useful things, but seeing you bright now gave me a huge sigh of relief. You've become a much better person and stronger than you will ever realize . As you get older, you become wiser and FAR more mature. You look back and wonder at certain things and begin to realize and experience answers that were never there before. And what does she do? Drink and smoke from her own selfishness and carelessness, and EVEN continues to text others who probably deep down want nothing to do with her. She wants attention and will probably end up at a low-end career/house/life with perhaps 4 hungry kids and different dads, blaming everyone but herself. The tides definitely change, but it's always more rewarding and accepting when we witness and experience it for ourselves. You have risen above her, now go be the person you want to be and no matter what happens you had the best natural reaction and did one of the best things possible (By being here and talking about it rather than slit someone's throat or whatever XD). Good man, good man!
