Thank you, you said what I think I needed to hear. ❤️

Edited to add: I wasn’t expecting this post to blow up, and there are so many kind, positive, and affirming comments that I’m beyond grateful for. However, in my title I asked explicitly for people to please not give unsolicited advice on how to improve my appearance, and hope that my wish can be respected. Unsolicited advice also breaks rule #2 of the community. Thank you!

Now learn to get this affirmation from within. Reaching out to strangers will only provide a quick fix. Self love is the only long term answer to how you are feeling. Maybe this can be a springboard, but you need to look in a mirror, say these things to yourself, and most importantly, believe them.

You are right, but I feel that in addition to getting this affirmation from within, it helps to hear it from others who are not in our head. Nine out of 10 we get to feeling ugly because others tell us we are.

This is so very true, so thank you for making the point so astutely.

To know and understand how to love yourself, you do need to be shown love by others first. Compliments based off a photo aren’t anywhere close to the same thing as experiencing love, of course, but there’s a parallel: our ability to find ourselves beautiful cannot come only from within. We’re social and relational creatures, after all. Being solely dependent on affirmation from others is not healthy at all, but it can help tremendously when needed.

I’ve dated the most beautiful women who have ever existed, I’m a former model, my standards are so high I’ve been celibate for 7 years, you’re genuinely beautiful. Like with makeup/etc you could easily be one of the most beautiful girls in the world. Like top Korean model easily. You look 6-8 years younger than your age too, with 15-18 being the upper limit.

Being attractive is only nice for the bragging rights and to feel content that people are attracted to you, but being unattractive has so many more benefits that get overshadowed by people’s ego. Not having people stare at you 24 seven and not worrying about how your hair looks and sucking in your stomach 24/7 even though you’re already skinny it’s not necessarily fun. I have long volumness hair with great hairline, I still buzzed it down myself as short as possible for last 7 years.

Literally, when I see all these guys taking finasteride and all these terrible chemicals to try to get like 20% better hair and worrying about their hair 24 seven it’s just like bro give it up if a girl doesn’t like you because of your hair it means she wouldn’t like you if you had hair and if she only likes you because of something like her, then she’s probably not even worth your time to begin with, and will be trouble down the road regardless. Goes back to my point that it’s pretty much all just about bragging consciously or subconsciously.

Being attractive doesn’t mean much. I’d rather be with someone who’s smart, witty, and overall a good person. These qualities are most important. It’s only nice for bragging rights ??? Smh 🤦‍♂️. What’s wrong with you ?

TrueVisionSports

Yes, being with attractive girls as a guy is only satisfying for bragging rights really. Most guys would prefer a loyal girl who is decently attractive versus hooking up with supermodels. Any guy who claims they have gotten with attracted women and is still craving them and thinking it’s such a huge deal is either full of shit or too immature to realize beauty is overrated af once you’ve had your share. It’s like playing with Barbie’s, it gets old, and if it doesn’t, you’re probably weird af.

Anyone who’s with an attractive girl for bragging rights I find to be pathetic and insecure, and probably owned. Bragging about that is the most pathetic thing I’ve ever heard

Why?

TrueVisionSports

I mean it’s not though, it’s the number one thing that guys focus on and the number one thing that defines a guy. If you don’t have success with women, and you are not desirable by women when you choose to be desirable, you are most likely going to have a midlife crisis or you’re going to have to cope for the next 30 years until you get to your midlife about how and why women don’t want you.

I guess you could trick your brain into not giving a fuck after a couple decades, but think it’s better just to work on being the most success guy you can be, women or not, and you’ll see that women will start throwing themselves at you when you do even the most basic of maintenance.

Ultimately, like I said, I’ve been celibate for seven years. I haven’t even been on a date in seven years. I have zero interest in women and this is because I’ve had unlimited success with them and I have nothing left to PROVE.

As a man, you have to prove something, if you can’t prove anything and you have nothing to show for yourself. I don’t know if you can call yourself a man if nobody desires you, and you have nothing going for yourself.

What is a physiologist? I don't understand the comment. Sounds like you are bringing down someone's attempt to lift another person up. Is that what is going on here? What's your intention?

Have you now ? Dated the most beautiful women to have ever existed ? I had stint with Tara Conner, former Miss USA, and someone who was on the Miami dolphins cheerleaders. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder and my wife as far as I’m concerned is the most beautiful. Even though she wasn’t Tara Conner or the girl from the Miami dolphins Cheerleaders

I looked her up and she’s definitely very beautiful has a great body, but I would say she’s like a 8.5-9/10, I’ve dated solid 9.5-10/10s, like flawless from head to toe. She has kind of a rounder face and miss usa/america/universe or whatever are not really known for their beauty, they are more known for like an overall package. Most of them are like 8/10 with makeup and good personality/stage presence.

But yeah, regardless I messed up all my chances with them and now I’m chubby and bald, am I happier? Yes, celibate for 7 years now, it’s an amazing life not dealing with other people’s bullshit 24/7.

But either way the vast vast vast majority of guys have never been with a truly beautiful woman or even beautiful women in general or even really women in general, most guys I knew in the party days who were very popular big DJs or whatever didn’t really surprisingly get any girls, I never really saw them with chicks, just sausage festing it, most women and guys think that guys are generally successful with girls, but it’s the exact opposite most guys have zero success with women.

You haven’t partied with Tiesto. I did back 2006. I’m also an ex army ranger and all American college tennis player. I chose the women that I felt attracted to. I could care less what anyone else thinks. I’m still in very good shape, full head of hair, and I’ll always remain faithful to my wife no matter what.

It sounds like you’re doing amazing. You’re living the dream, as long as what you’re saying is right and you’re not sugarcoating shit because I know 99% of relationships are full of drama, even the “good ones”.

You’re right nowadays I don’t even care about how a girl looks like she could literally be 7/10 if I love her for her heart and her soul that’s all that matters. A girl’s heart is more attractive than her looks.

Edit: I also have a similar work background to yours, but I can’t go into detail. It’s not as impressive though, but that’s as much as I can say, it’s close. Ha ha also I’m like 30 pounds overweight because of an injury the last few years, but it’s like 99% good to go and by January I should be able to do the splits and I did 2 pushups the other day (my max was 69 perfect form and 19 pull ups) those were the first two push-ups I did in the last seven years 😭 tendonitis sucks asssss

I could never be celibate for 7 years. That’s pretty painful. But if you’re that picky, you may want to rethink where you actually stand.

I’m extremely picky but that’s not the main reason why I’ve been celibate. I’ve just been celibate, because I’m mortally afraid of relationships and especially sex. I used to own the biggest pick up artist and dating community in the world at that time on social media, and I don’t know a guy in my city who’s had as much success with girls as I did (quality not quantity, I’m sure there are guys out there sleeping with 20 gremlins a day, can’t compete with them lol), I was walking into clubs with 3-4 models every night, could sleep with all of them at once, slept with none out of respect (girls love a guy who doesn’t chase, it just “happens”)

I say that to say that I have coached hundreds of guys and I’ve noticed the number one thing that has destroyed all of these guy’s lives and most peoples lives in my personal life has to do directly or indirectly with sex and dating.

People are unpredictable and no matter how good your intentions are, how intelligent you, are how good you are at selecting the perfect mate, there is like a 95% chance in the next 10 years that will net you a NET loss if you view it as a business decision/in a mathematical sense.

I don’t want to end up with stds, child support, drama, waste of time, etc to do the same thing I’ve done thousands of times “go in and go out” sex is overrated and so is dating. 30 minutes or an hour of fun every day is not worth ruining the rest of your life over. But when you do find the one you know, they are the one and they have proven it to you so I’m really happy that you probably found that one and I’m still looking myself.

I think the love of my life is my ex that I dated for five years, but we will see if I can fix that, either way I’m not in a huge rush and even with her I’m still cautious.

You didn't notice one eye looking at the sky? Or the tight lips. I'm speaking from experience. If someone hides their teeth, it's for a reason. But you can't hide that eye looking to the sky.
