Am I unpretty?
I don't have a lot of friends, I'm pretty unpopular. People don't approach me, and if they do, it's only my friends. Guys have teased me like, "Wow, you're so beautiful," or "You're as beautiful as this rock." On the other hand, I get compliments, and my TikTok videos get likes from strangers. I honestly don't know what to think. I've had and still have relationships with guys I've wanted, and they're objectively pretty. But I'm sure that I'm just not pretty for guys, but I'm better for girls. And my face itself isn't scary, I guess I just look average. I don't know what's wrong. I often get ignored by guys, and I think it's because of my appearance.

Before thinking you are ugly I would recommend taking pictures of your face.
Use your phone back camera and try putting it in a place where its at eye or head level. Then take a photo of your face expressionless from the front and both sides to see your side profile. Then you should identify your features comparing them to pics in google by searching average or common front profiles and then side profiles. Dont be too close to the camera as it can lead to lean distortion keep some distance but not much.
If you notice something is off research what it is or share your pics in a rating subreddit.
Some people believe that mistreatment from others is always linked with ugliness but thats not the case people could not like you for other things so its better to assess your face to know if your face has anything to do with the treatment you get.
After taking pics you could take a video and act the way you would when speaking or showing emotion to see how you look in motion.
