My face, and how i feel about it

82% Normal
9 Comments

I struggle with my appearance. Some days I love my face others I hate it. This has always been an issue for me and it affects my confidence. Granted I handle it quite well and don't let it get in the way much at all but the feeling of disgust when I see my face doesn't go away.

Now recently I had gained a kind of new acceptance, appreciation and love for my appearance for the first time in my life I was really genuinely not insecure about my face. This lasted for months but now I'm falling back into old habits.

Is it dysmorphia? Or do I just not look great? The thing is I cant trust a mirror at all anymore because my opinion of what's looking back at me flip flops so drastically that I can't believe either one. I mean I don't know anyone who jumps from a 7 to 3 day in day out.. any advice?

    I think I’m really sexy and at least an 8/10 even on my worst days. Sometimes my own sexy reflection turn me on. Confidence is an attitude, learn to love yourself and don’t let anything take that from you.

      See perhaps you're just a very attractive person hence no difficulties in this situation for you. But glad to hear you're feeling good

    I’ve never seen myself as attractive. Even putting on makeup, I still don’t see anything cute about myself.

        I just think it’s human nature to not find oneself attractive.

    As an ugly person, I tell you, it doesn't matter. You should get over it and realize this: most people think most people are ugly. Most people are considered to be at least unattractive by the majority of people.

      I agree with a lot of what you have said here (not the part about you being ugly though, because I have never seen you, so I can't comment)

      People go on about this classic beauty standard but in my own experience, it doesn't seem to work that way. My whole life, when hanging out with friends and talking about attractive people, whether it's celebrities, work colleagues, friends, whatever, the group will always have wildly different ideas about who is hot, and who is not. This goes for males and females. And even then, some people will talk about someone being ugly, and then a few weeks later they are fucking them and telling us how great they are.

      I think there is an unfortunate group of people who will usually be considered ugly, because of some sort of severe facial deformity or similar, but for the majority of people, they will be all over the attractiveness scale from 1 to 10 depending on who is rating them.

        This just might be exactly accurate I know that one girl who was friends with my friends gf said she thought I was really hot and this surprised me as I dont feel that way that much but you're probably right ik theres some girls I think are really hot that my friends wouldn't probably best to keep that in mind

    I think that's quite normal.
    Plus different things can affect your appearance, for example if you're stressed you can look tired and worn or if you've had a poor diet for a while it affects your skin or if your confidence is just lower certain days you can feel you look worse than you do.
