There's an epidemic going around: a ‘hot girl attitude’ epidemic that's spreading like a virus, infecting millions. It’s an epidemic that's been spreading since the invention of the dress, though you, "outcast turned hot-girl," are immune. Somewhere between adolescence and womanhood, you started getting attention for your looks and society had deemed you “hot," but the arrogance that often goes with that attention never quite caught up to you. 

You’re now a rare breed...hot, but without the terrible "hot girl" personality that's typically associated with being an exceptionally good looking member of our species. People are drawn to you, because you're different. Growing up, you probably felt like a Fruit Loop in a world of Cheerios. But while you probably didn’t know it at the time, being an outcast in school was the best thing that ever happened to you, for a number of reasons: 

1. You’re actually nice

You’re nice to everyone because you know what it feels like when people aren’t. Being an outcast may have healed over time, but the scars never fully faded, which is not a bad thing. You still remember what it felt like to not fit in and you go out of your way to make sure people around you are happy and feel good. You're extremely open minded and sensitive to people's feelings because you understand the importance of accepting other people and you never want others to feel what you felt.

2. You’re confident, but not just because of your looks

You know your own worth and you’re confident, but that confidence comes from within. Your passions defines you more than your looks. This came from years of relying on your personality. Because you never thought you were the pretty girl in the room, you never relied on your looks. You hold things close to your heart, and people want to know you and be around you.

3. You’re still surprised when people tell you that you’re pretty

You're humble. Growing up you never fit in, and just because you grew into a beautiful creature doesn't mean you think you are one. You never let looks define who people are; it takes a lot more than flattering features for you to think someone is attractive.

4. You don't follow the masses and you don’t need the approval of others

You don't really give a shit what other people think. Being an outcast taught you that just because something is popular, doesn't mean it has quality. You always investigate things for yourself. Being an outcast taught you to have your own opinions about the world around you because you know that letting other people’s opinions dictate the way you live your life will ensure that you will never reach your full potential.

5. Your wisdom and opinions define who you are much more than your looks do

You speak your mind, and you don't let others intimidate you. You get scared but you never let your fears prevent you from chasing your dreams. You have your own opinions about people, you don't let certain stigmas affect how you feel about a person. You know that sometimes some of the greatest human beings are misunderstood. You're very selective about who you let into your world, but that's because you don't waste time with people that make you unhappy.
