Hey guys I need some help. So I view myself as average looking but I have really bad problems with body image and what not. I have a great body and workout but I am very self conscious about my face.

Ive been viewing this subbreddits for a while and have made some decent progress but every time someone calls me ugly its literally devastating. Last night for example I was at a party and was talking to this girl. I then told her Friends I thought she was gorgeous. One of them apparently decided to tell the girl, but another girl overheard and blurted out "EW EWW EWW" .

The girl who said that was by all means literally disgusting and not attractive at all.. so that's the worst part.. I had an ugly girl... call me ugly.. It hurt so bad.

This type of stuff throws off my game and makes me feel so aweful inside and keeps me from being my full potential and living a happy lifestyle. I know I won't be able to get over this for a while.

My question is, how should I imeddiately react in that situation, how can I get past this, and how should I act when i run into any of the girls involved last night? (Including friends)
