I know all to well how you feel. I somewhat accepted it with time. I am now 43 and while i know that i am ugly i still go outside for grocery shopping or sometimes even just for fun and i (for example) go to the local zoo. I had huge issues in the first half of my life to go outside at all and let people see me. I know i will never experience love or romance with a face like mine. It makes me sad because i always wanted to be a father and husband. Maybe next life?!

I wear glasses so when I take a look at my shower I literlly can't see my body/face in the mirror so I guess that's why I don't feel ugly

This probably wasn't helpful to share, but this is my honest experience

I also have recently started running and getting compliments for my leg muscles so yeah that felt nice
I have also been dressing better and getting compliments too

****

Serenity prayer (I'm not religious)

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference.
