What is something that someone has said to you, that made you self-conscious ever since?

I used to have pretty bad acne. I was 15 and waiting for a friend until a lady came up to me and asked what was on my face and if I had chicken-pox. I was already dying inside but tried to remain polite so I just said no this is just my skin. And then she tried to get me interested in this cream her friend sells for "people like me". At that point I couldn't contain my tears and my eyes began watering. When she left I began crying and I just ran home. That was my first time hanging out with that girl and I didn't have the guts to tell her what happened. I was so embarassed to talk to her. So I missed out on a potential friendship as well. My skin is a lot better now but I still have a huge complex. It's never good enough. When people say I don't have spots I can't believe them. I always see "something" in the mirror.
