Carol, I don't know what you look like, but I know you're beautiful!
I know it's already been said, but I'll just re-emphasize it. Beauty has nothing to do with what's on the outside, and you have one of the most gorgeous hearts there is.
Carol, you pointed out how much words can hurt - and of course, the opposite is true too! The way you think about yourself is one of the most important aspects to how you feel and what you project. Just look at what happened when someone else reinforced your sense of beauty? You turned around, projected that - and so what it was a (an almost) priest? It's an affirmation of how beautiful and wonderful you are.
I don't care how stupid you feel, stand in front of that mirror every morning and every evening, look into your own eyes, and tell yourself you are beautiful - and MEAN it! Start working on "reprogramming" your mind-set. And as soon as you're truly happy with yourself and happy in your life - and you don't care about finding someone to share it with - that person's going to fall right into your heart and your life.
