I must admit to being a bit confused. Not long ago the OP was posting as a maried man and now he's a pretty girl.
Maybe I'm reading it wrong but from this post I assumed the OP was a woman:

One of my sisters is extremely overweight. She is close to 300 pounds and in all honesty she is just plain ugly. When she is out in public I notice that people tend to stare, giggle and are just plain rude to her. It must be terrible to be her because I can just feel the hostility.
I notice that when I am with her some of the negative vibes that are directed at her because of her weight and general appearance is also directed at me. It is almost like people are saying, "what are you doing with her"
So, are you embarrassed to be seen with people who are fat, frumpy and ugly?
i would be embarassed to acknowledge being related to you
I had a friend in high school that had medcial problems and was extremely overweight. He was one of the best people I knew and I was never emnarrassed to be sen with him, he diesd in a auto wreck and I still miss him for the great friend he was.I can't imagine anyone felling that way about there sister unless they were a very selfish person at the least.
