Start with the Greeks. Caring about your appearance that much is a womanly behavior.

Thanks

I don't care that much about my appearance as i'm naturally ugly. Is just that women in general and some guys treat you bad. Thanks for the recommendation

I'd like to add that in The Centaur by John Updike Peter Caldwell has a skin condition. The beginning is sort of wacky and Peter shares the role of protagonist with his father, but maybe you will experience a bond with Peter. I think there is a very touching scene in the book, but your reaction to it will depend on the degree of bitterness towards your percieved ugliness.

I'm not versed in Spanish translations. Google it. Catholic or Protestant with Apocrypha - it doesn't really matter as much as translation. In English NASB is the way to go.

They're hideous but more due to their behaviour, outlook and personality.
