Accepting that you're ugly

Hello TSR. This is my first post here, and I'm going to get straight to my reason for joining.

I suffer from the same complex that so many of us here feel: I am ugly, and it is having an effect on my confidence.

The fact that I was severely bullied about my appearance and called "extremely ugly" by an ex does not help.

However, in my case, there is a slight twist: I've reached the point where I feel I need to accept that I am not Hollywood's definition of "good-looking". I am 5 7", and a 28AA (which pretty much means nothing there). I have brown hair and brown eyes and an olive complexion, which goes against the whole "blonde-haired, blue-eyed" and heavily coveted/envied appearance pushed in the media.

I understand that beauty is in the eye of the gazer. But, if that was the case, wouldn't at least one boy out there have looked at me and thought "she is the prettiest girl I have ever seen" by now? I am 20.

Am I supposed to just accept that I wasn't born pretty, to the point where even the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" can't save me?
