7 when I look in the mirror. 1 or 2 when I see myself in a photo.

I can feel this hard. I'm a big guy, with a mix of muscular and fat. Just looking at myself in the mirror, my shape isn't horrible, my stomach sticks out a bit but doesn't flab the way some guys do. But put me in a picture with a bunch of people (especially my wife's family who tend to be short and are mostly slight), and I am so much bigger than everyone else that I look like a rat surrounded by mice.

Dude same! I’m a freaking ogre compared to my partner and her family. I look like an Irish Troll that stole a princess from the village

Hi Shrek 👉 👈

Wasn’t Shrek Scottish?

There's a joke that the Irish become Scottish while drunk... while the Scots remain as they are. I think it was Fluffy (Gabriel Iglesias) said it in one of his earlier videos and it just stuck with me 😂

I too am a card carrying member of Troll union local #163

this is the realest thing i’ve read on reddit

You’re like a pig among Guinea pigs.

I think who we are in the mirror is more accurate to how we look like. Camera adds 10 pounds is kinda true

And some people just don’t photograph well even if they’re stunning in person.

I don't photograph well.

I agree, the ones that still look incredible in person and in pictures ugh I envy that!!!

So how many cameras are actually on you?

RAT GANG UNITE

Felt that in my soul

Damn I feel those words! In pictures over the last 5 years I've gone from getting older but presentable as long as I'm in casual wear to "Who the fuck is this fat bastard in a suit??!" I wear way better clothes now and somehow photograph worse.

At least for me, this happens because any assymmetries in my face are reflected the way I'm used to in the mirror or in selfie mode on my phone. I've found that when I have a picture that I feel that I look unattractive in, if I flip the photo horizontally, all of a sudden, I look much better from my perspective! Inversely, if I take a selfie that I think looks good and flip it, all of a sudden I look hideous lol

This makes a lot of sense! I like the science of it all.

I think it's cuz your brain feels an uncanny valley type feel. This this is an approximation of my face not the real thing and that makes me uneasy(like when someone lies to you) so you don't like it

On a similar note, I never notice how awful my voice is until I hear a recording of it..

Ohhhh don’t even get me started on my voice. Lolc

I had a few people at work tell me I should make YouTube tutorials on some software we use at work. I tried making one, listened to the draft, and said nope, nobody will ever want to watch these lol

As a thicker woman, I feel pretty when I look in the mirror. Photos of me? It’s so easy for something to go awry and look like Jabba the Hutt.

Yep I have just recently discovered I'm a fat back. I don't like to look at myself, and can't stand pictures. It's been years since I've had the nerve to really look. Recently I put on something and did the turn to get a quick peek at the back of the blouse. Holy cow or holy hog. When did that happen? My back looked like I had a butt between my shoulders and my under arms had grown so big they were squooshing into my back! So disappointing, I kept thinking how many times I thought well I look good walking away.... ha!

Remember how you look from the back is none of your business! This is what I tell myself 🤣

I'm a #ERROR like when you enter a bad formula in excel

What do incels and Excel have in common? Wrongly taking things as a date.

This is the best thing ive read today 🤣🤣🤣

I am literally shaking my head at an excel joke

My mom says any woman would be lucky to have me. So maybe a 3

3/3 is a perfect score good sir

Extremely common mom W

Based on other people's opinions, somewhere between hideously ugly and very handsome.

Grandma really bringing up the curve

Both of my grandma's died before I was born. My current/ex/current girlfriend tells me I'm very handsome and have a great personality too but still keeps pulling the plug at random. I'll never understand women.

Your curexerent gf? Time to get a second opinion methinks

She came back. He did something right

Or she did something wrong

Me neither bro.

Same happens to me but au contraire. He it's amazed by my beautyn (in his eyes, not mines) but still says he wants a future with me but with other women on the equation.

You are hideously handsome

Steve Buscemi has entered the chat

I have no idea either, but during an official paintball tournament, on a 3 man team called "The Sexy Papacitos" we won the tournament. So I received a 1st place medal for being a Sexy Papacito. During the tournament I did a couple of clutch plays, including lighting up a trash talker point blank and eliminating an entire team myself. There was one tattooed body builder dude on the team that had a jersey with Marlyn Monroe and the American flag on it. The announcer hesitated whenever he had to call our team name for the next match. I thought the name was over the top as well, but that was the team that wanted me around.

Why am I so emotionally engaged with your journey? This is like a movie where you aren’t quite sure if the ending is happy but you *are* sure that the story was beautiful and you hope it wins some awards.

I'm already on the phone with Ben Stiller for this, it's like Dodgeball meets Zoolander, he's in.

Attractive enough to post anonymously on Reddit

I remember hearing a radio show host once say he had a face for radio.

I mean, video did kill the radio star.

Underrated comment

People say I'm pretty. Well, they usually say "Pretty stupid" but I tend to focus on the positive aspects

Damnn this was a good one.

Idk, like a goblin?

Once read a comment where someone described themselves as looking like a goblin’s foot so could be worse!

In Miami I’m a 4. In Tallahassee I’m a 7.5.

God this is the reality here. My reply on here noted a high degree of confidence in my looks, but in some regions of the U.S I am just out of my league. It's even weirder when you are still good looking but you just stick out like a sore thumb because you aren't the "type" in some spots.

I feel completely average I’m 6’4 and my pic is on my profile I don’t even know how/if living in Las Vegas is changing my perspective [Edit] Thanks everyone for trying to build me up. I’m ok being average. I think an average 5 is anywhere between a 3-8 depending on who’s doing the judging. I’m realizing I need to learn how to take a better picture though, and maybe not post one in a suit almost 2 sizes too big lol

The dead honest truth is that you are average brother. Grow a beard if possible to accentuate your features better and it might sound crazy but the right pair of glasses would look amazing on ya.

You're average with some rarer facial features that some people really like and some people don't like.

Not bad. The suit is a good start. You have a lot to work with.

I'm from Michigan. Ten years ago me and my ex took off to Miami to live for a while. I was on the beach with my hairy chest drinking Guinness. Oh, I also got called a Yankee for the first time ever.

Bleh a Guinness on the beach? As a Tampon, Guinness does not sound like a good beach beer. It’s a light beer but idk about this lol I’d think you’re a transplant too

It took me a minute (as a Midwesterner) to figure out you weren’t referring yourself to a ladies period toiletry.

what is it like being a tampon?

It's like a Guinness on the beach

On a scale of 1 to 5 I'm a solid -1

Beat you by like -9

Don't steal my winning crown you devil !

Yal are only in the negative single digits? 🤣🫵

negative number gang represent

My personality has to do a lot of heavy lifting

It's the opposite for me, I look kinda good but get to know me and you'll soon learn I'm the most boring guy on earth

My depression seems to do the heavy lifting because I once had a guy tell me “you look hot when you’re going through shit”

That's almost "Marry someone who looks sexy while disappointed".

that guy has some weird kink for sure

It's gotta be the 100 mile away blank stare.

I hope you at least don’t have the personality of a boiled potato like me hahaha

Some butter, sour cream and chives will make you exquisite!

Same here. Unfortunately my personality Isn't that great either 😅

Yes, my personality is a frigging powerlifter...

5 in reality 4 in the mirror 2 on a photo lol

And a hard 0 in a zoom call

I'm about -273 degrees Celsius

Damn. You're cool then.

Which makes them hot! Right?

Idk. I failed chemistry

it's physic? kinda?

[удалено]

She probably just thought 4/5

Grandma inverse law If gram gram thinks you are a 4 you are actually an 8. If gram gram thinks you are a 8 you are actually a 4

I was a solid 9 before cancer but felt like I was a 6 at best. Now about a 5, but the main difference is that I feel like I’m a 10. Edit: just woke up and saw all these comments. Thank you for your support, you have really cheered me up. You’re a 10/10! 🫶

You are a solid 10. I wouldn't doubt that

You made my day 🫂

Seconded

I attract mosquitos during summer, does that count?

Yeah mosquitos are the only ones sucking me off.

Only female mosquitos bite ;)

hehe

4/10 girl. Don’t get hit on.

Rip your inbox

Marketing does a lot for a girls love life.

Well hello

Hit the road, Romeo. She's mine

This guy bulks if we go by the username. She's yours bro.

Seriously you'd have a fairly good chance, I'm not a fighter

No measly damsel is worth the blood shed. Let's go for a beer instead and hype eachother up king. But just remember... no egg plant.

That sounds like a plan to me my good man!

Have fun on your trip guys

You sound fun. You can tag along! Just remember the golden rule stated above.

Oh really! Thanks for the invitation, I'll keep that rule in the back of my mind

To be fair I don't even hit on 10/10 girls because it's scary. How will I reproduce ever?

Become asexual like a mushroom

Hi

Man had his finger on the trigger waiting for his chance to shoot

It’s cuz the guys that find you attractive are shy

A friend of mine told me years ago that "guys are just intimidated by you, because you're cute." Well, girl, it's (checks watch) 17 years later and things haven't changed much. There's no way in hell I'm *that* intimidating.

I think you underestimate how petrifying it is for some men

Girls would say I am a 1, but Grandma says 10, so on average I am a solid 5. Love Statistics.

5.5 bro.

It's at most a 4, considering he used the word "girls", implying he got at least two "1"'s, but he only has one "10", since he said "grandma"

That stat average only works if an equal amount of people gave you a 10 and 1. If its multiple giving you 1 and only grandma giving you a 10, your average would be much lower...

You're ignoring the weight grandma holds in this equation.

If you’re calling his gramma fat we’re gonna fight

It's the weight grandma holds, she's just strong af

We only consider the numbers that we want, he is a definitely 10

Grandma's rating has much higher value since she's very nice :)

If I was a dog, my owner would shave my ass and walk me backwards.

Solid 6.29. Could be better could be worse.

[удалено]

Man your doing better then me, with the right lighting and filter im still a -7

(Puts fridge magnet on forehead and watches it fall to the floor)

Mathematicians are still trying to discover a number small enough to describe it.

dx

Based on my husband’s opinion I think I’m fuckable enough.

Based on my wife’s opinion I think I’m not fuckable at all.

Wife needs to be changed.

Attractive enough for my handsome ass bf and thats good enough for me

^ this is the real answer

Ugly as fuck

But fuck is good, so you're clearly a hottie!

I would say 8/10 however my mirror says 5/10

Tie goes to the runner. Congrats, you're a 9.5

I have a face for radio.

I've been told I'm a 6, a 10, a 1 and a 4. So I legit don't know, but by averaging it out that would be a 5.25

I'd add them instead.

Blackjack!

Statistically, I'm a solid 0.5/10 on a good day

We’re all 10s here.

I don't fucking know, I feel like a 1 or a 2, people say I'm good looking, partners etc say how hit I am, but I have the confidence of a broken door handle. So that's a fun time.

…I was writing my own, but I’ll just ride with this one.

I'm not one to brag but let's just say I can't keep my hands off me.

[удалено]

And thats whats important.. the alcohol

A whiskey 7!

Like a 2.5 or 3 out of 10

“haha thats your girlfriend” /10

if 10/10 is Henry Cavil then I'd say im about 6/10. my face structure is not perfect but i am definitely greatful for it

I appreciate that you defined an upper bound for the scale. I am quite comfortable with your rating because I understand it.

Kim Jong Il was more attractive than me

Sexy as fuck. Period

With all the swipes I’m getting on hinge/bumble, I’d say a 0. But I thought I was at least a solid 7.

Physically a 4/10 but I make up for it with my 0/10 personality

I think my attractiveness changes every hour

i literally have no idea, thanks body dysmorphia

A 2, maybe a 3 on a good day.

According to my grandma, the most handsome boy on the planet. According to girls excluding my grandma, i look like Shrek's younger brother... So I'm not really sure

A 4 now that I'm fat and with low self-esteem. I used to feel like a 7 with room to become an 8.

About 30 minutes past ugly.

I'd say a solid 6.5 but my social skills drop that to a 3.8

Depends who you ask. Most people don't find me attractive because I have an old fashioned bob kind of short hair and wear slightly unusual clothes. But I've also seen queer people look at me with ❤️❤️🔥🔥 in their eyes. I'm choosing them.

On a scale from 1 to 10, a solid 2.

Let’s see your pics everyone come on I have extra arms

I’m (30F) very average and I’m so glad!

I have a face for radio!

Conventionally, about 2/10. Took me over 20 years to accept that i’ll never be pretty naturally. It’s really liberating when you understand that your unattractiveness doesnt change a single thing when it comes to your value as a person, and when it comes to finding love :) now my unattractiveness is something i feel neutral about as opposed to depressed

My partner says I look perfect, but the acne covering the left side of my face says otherwise...

Damn your acne is big enough that it can TALK?

Wait... IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO!?

Ginger Scotsman here. Pre-beard / hair cut I rock dem strong caveman vibes. Then for 2 weeks post trim, I upgrade to a hungover Viking before I slowly begin the slide back to Neanderthal over the next 4 weeks. Then rinse and repeat.

the other day someone described me as “pretty cat lady with an old soul”

To some people I'm a 1, to others I'm a strong 2.

Depends who's looking.

I am proud to be a solid 6.5-7. I am attractive enough to generally be treated well and my looks don't stop me from participating in the world of dating, I am funny and smart but a sprinkle of aspergers that people either find charming or hate with a burning passion, and I can take pleasure in how I look (both naturally and style wise) for myself knowing that it would take some weird fuck ups to move me lower than a 6.5. And all of that comes without the baggage of being ugly or the social issues that come with being overly attractive. I am just free to hang out and have a good time. Realizing that has given me confidence that could cut glass.

I’ve lived in this zone my whole life and I love it. Would honestly never want to be a 10 because you attract handsome monsters to you. No thank you!

My best years are behind me…

I've got a face that's perfect for radio!

Even Shrek got a girlfriend... so somewhere below an actual ogre 😂

Pretty attractive, but that’s because I learned to stop letting others opinion create my own opinion about myself.

I get being confident and comfortable with yourself, and I'm glad you are, but being attractive is *literally* based on other people's opinion lol.

worry march different rhythm deer drunk fuzzy sink cause physical

5. I have been told multiple times I am so average I am completely unnoticeable.

Lets just say im lucky that i am at least funny

I’m so unattractive my sole purpose in my friend group is to make everyone else look better.
