In my late 20s (I’m 31 now) I got in the best shape of my life, lost a shit load of weight, I got a sense of style, became a makeup artist, etc. Men started paying a lot of attention to me, dated a lot, but my self esteem has always been low.

      I understand that. And, from experience, I think it has more to do with the limitations of cameras than people actually being as ugly as they may look on pictures.
      First problem with cameras, they don't do 3D. Whatever curves may or may not be there, they will at best be reduced to whatever shadows or bright spot outlines them. And there may be a world of difference between what 3D model you try to recreate from that and what is actually there. In a mirror, you see with both of your eyes so you don't have the issue.
      Second problem, consumer grade cameras don't capture color as preciselly as the human eye can. Contrast may be limited. Red sensors may also include some infrared. That kind of shit. So, combined with problem one, you look even more like a bloob of a human being instead of you.
      As a very pale person, I got that shit all the time. Unless you work precisely with angles and lighting i'm not very recognisable on pictures despite strong facial features. Xbox Kinekt got a similar issue with black faces too a few years ago. Facial recognition just didn't work on them because the camera couldn't capture their traits.

      Most research shows that Women think 85% of men are average or below. So if you’re not in the top 15% or in the bottom 5% you’re just average. The amount of effort you put is what determines your success. Aba you’re average stop playing yourself.

When you're a teenager who's constantly made to feel unattractive it's hard to challenge that idea. So one thing you can work on is self-awareness. It's one of the traits that's helped me the most in life, and on my journey to gain confidence. To be able to tell everything about yourself objectively is powerful, and it erases all of your weak spots. I never found myself ugly, I also don't think Im particularly eye-catching. But that principal helped me overcome my stuttering problem, which is what people would always hit me with. Once I accepted that it was a part of me, I stopped seeing it as a problem and their words stopped hurting me. I think that concept can be applied to other things, like physical beauty.

    I totally agree with this entire video.
    I don't think I have ever in my life truly believed that I was beautiful. My hair, my eyes, my teeth, my skin, my body, just nothing about me strikes me as particularly attractive. And it's not because I want people to tell me otherwise; it's cuz I genuinely believe that about myself and I will never change my mind even if I could change all the things I hate about myself instantly and for free.
    I've learnt to just take the compliments as they come, say "thank you" as one should and move on.
    I especially hate the people who are pushy about complimenting my looks and then THEY get upset when I don't accept like "oh my god you're so right and I was wrong and I'll totally change the way I see myself cuz you helped me see the light"? Get outta here.
    It's how I choose to view myself and it's NOT a bad thing. It is what it is. And you're not a better person for nit agreeing with me.
    What you think of me is none of my business. I don't get up every morning and brush my hair or put on eyeliner to try to please the general population. What I do or do not do in terms of aesthetics is for my own benefit.
    I don't mind going through life thinking I'm ugly. It 100% DOES NOT bother or affect me.

      I know what you mean. When I was younger I was overweight I didn't perceive me as attractive nor other people. Sometimes there were people who said "you're" cute or whatever. When I lost weight when I turned 17 not only did my body change but also my face. When I was in Lithuania during an exchange program when I was 23 women considered me the "hottest guy" at the university (only 600-700 people though) even men complimented me being handsome. This goes for people who met me after my body transformation. People who knew me from before always say "can't imagine how fat you were but now look at you"...yeah life is weird sometimes :D. But I do understand your whole appearance can change due to your weight loss and that's what happened to me.
      I mean look at Adele, she was heavily overweight, had a cute face but look at her NOW! Like two different people.

      @@teshc4795 exactly. I've always been a face person (I love smiles and the way someone's eyes light up), so body is kinda irrelevant for me unless you physically can't keep up. I've always been a bigger girl but active, and when I lose weight I get A LOT of attention and I hate it lol for me, it's like what are you thinking in your head that tells you that you have any right to comment on my body to me? Like what makes you feel the need to tell me you're looking at me and thinking whatever thoughts you have? Like are we cool like that? Have we chatted and flirted first? I honestly immediately lose all interest in any guy or girl who comments on my facade first before anything else. I'm a big supporter of you can look but don't touch, and you don't need to tell me you like what you see either. But I also have trauma related to that. Growing up I got told I was so pretty or so beautiful, and then was treated like shit lol so someone who approaches my looks first just gets a hard no from me. Some girls thrive off of direct compliments and attention, I thrive in my bubble and not having my boundaries compromised.

      luciq1007 Physical features are gonna be what you see first when you meet someone and in turn flirting starts with that initial physical attraction. I myself don’t care that people say I look good now compared to before when I was in high school because I worked for it. Personally I don’t understand how someone saying it would be a problem, but different experiences create different believes and thought pattern. So I guess my question would be is it a bad thing that they thought you weren’t attractive before because of their preferences and now you fit more their type? Also honestly is it the fact that they’re commenting on your body or the fact that it isn’t a guy that’s your type approaching you?

    I was wearing a suit to high-school way back when, for a club recruitment day (we were trying to recruit freshmen). I dropped by class to tell the teacher what I would be doing, and the girls wolf-whistled. I laughed it up at the time, spun around and took a bow, but I felt they were mocking me. In retrospect, they might have been genuinely impressed. My self-image didn't accept it, though. Still probably wouldn't. I'm ugly and I'm not proud.

    I was super ugly in school, chubby, curly frizzy hair, super anemic and pale to the point everyone called me casper... the group of "popular' girls (you know the ones, blonde straight hair, skinny, tanned) told me that this hot dude fancied me and asked me if I would go out with him (be his girlfriend) and I was like " duhhh yeah" so after a week he hadn't spoke to me or acknowledged my existence I was like "well this is weird" so I sent my friend to ask him if he was still my boyfriend, my friend come back to me a bit flustered and said "no, he's not your boyfriend anymore" and she was like "his loss, he's a loser anyway". Couple of days later I was round the same friends house and I read her diary and in it she wrote the true story of what had happened when she went to speak to the boy, apparently his group of friends started laughing and he said "as if I would go out with that fat ugly bitch". The girls had tricked me into believing I was his girlfriend and he knew nothing about it.
    Two important lessons were learnt that week-
    1, if something appears to be to good to be true, just assume it isn't.
    2, don't snoop and respect people's privacy, because you might find something that hurts, no good will come of it.
    My friend purposefully tried to protect me from the hurtful comments and my sneaky disrespectful self got what i deserved when I read what had actually happened.... because when I read it, it felt like a punch in the gut.

It's important for you to know someone cares about you. Because the last thing I would want to happen is for someone not to be here(do suicide ) because they felt no one care. I've been down the road and it is a dark and malicious road. When I'm down I remember that if I don't believe in myself atm someone does. Even if I don't think I'm beautiful someone does.

I dont view myself as worth it or attractive, and I'm working on me for myself. Compliments much as yall said, do nothing for me because it's not where my mind is.

    When I was a kid I asked a couple of girls who were dreaming about some guy if I was good looking. They said no.
    I never recovered.
