I'd say that jrnyman has got the answer there. I agree with him. But I need to add something. You are, because of this thread, unattractive. It is unattractive to have low self-esteem and confidence. It is unattractive to be seeking judgement based on appearance from others. It is unattractive to be looking at oneself and not thinking "this is who I am, I accept that". If you have doubts, do what you can to change them for yourself. Don't judge yourself based on what people say of the so-called "hotties". Be who you are, be confident, be self-aware and treat your body, mind and soul with respect and you will be attractive, whether or not you look lke what a model "should" look like. Be who you are, know what you are, change what you need to. Don't give in to the false images of >10% of the population.
If you alone find yourself attractive then you are attractive, if you think of yourself as dirty, ugly, rotten prick then you are one. Its all in your mind i think. You need 1 procent natural beauty and the rest is up to you and your skills to make yourself irresistebale. Its not just the look, but the way you move and talk, your manners for example. Everything matters. You must be confident and take a little care of your body every now and then.
All I'm saying is that at your age, looks do matter. In high school EVERYTHING matters. But once you grow up and get out in the real world, you realize that anyone who is truly worth your time will love you for your personality, brains and spirit. Sure looks have some bearing, but very little. You'll figure it out for yourself soon enough.
First off you gotta change your attitude and improve your posture (makes you look 10x more attractive to girls if you have good posture! It shows you're confortable in your own skin and have confidence in yourself). If you think you're unattractive then so will everyone else. Second, you should find clothes that fit your body type. Ask some cute girls what they think about the clothes you're looking at, get their opinions and express your personality and opinions too..girls always love to give their opinions on fashion and guys who express themselves. Then you got a conversation opener right there..offer her a coffee/tea for helping you..then you got an instant-date right there..just be casual about everything. Don't plan it all out..just act on the moment. You're not a social robot, afterall. Talk about your passions and cool stories about your life experiences w/friends, etc, things like that..then she'll talk about hers and you can vibe on that. You want to see if she's your type afterall..if she doesn't impress you, find someone else. Meet and approach as many girls as possible daily and you'll become confident talking to girls this way pretty fast..and it'll only get better from there. The thing is to have options...say your date cancels, just find another one for the night. If you don't do anything, you won't have any options. Don't limit yourself to pubs. I find the best place to meet girls is right where you are...in other words, just going about your daily business (mall, grocery store, park, a concert, etc) and making interesting conversation with them...often the best opener is "hi" followed by a smile, then go right into a situational conversation or something..don't wait..it's called the "3 second rule", which means you just walk right up within 2-3 seconds of noticing her and initiate a conversation..that way, even if you're a little nervous, you won't beat yourself up for waiting and trying to plan a clever line in your head and either not going through with it or seeming like a creep. Also, if you go out just to meet girls, you're already gonna be too self-conscious and nervous cause you put too much thought into it...go out to have fun with your friends and approach girls you think are cool or your type...just be yourself and don't try to impress anyone...you don't need to prove that you're awesome. If you're always worried about being rejected, then you're already setting yourself up for rejection. When you are rejected, as almost everyone is at some point, just shrug it off cause it's no big deal. Afterall, they're the ones missing out to have an opportunity with you!
Tell me you wouldn't go out with Brad Pitt if he asked you...lol Of course looks matter. That includes the way you present yourself and your actions. Even if you aren't particularly attractive physically, you can still be with your personality. Also, it's about how you make the other person FEEL, not exactly what you say...but how you say it..that is, for female-to-male attraction. As for male-to-female attraction, it's about looks first then personality. Love is one thing, but you can't deny the natural laws of attraction. It's one of those things that no one has control over.
As a basically straight male with an unprejudiced eye I do not find you unattractive, my youngest son (sixteen in a few weeks) has a body shape very similar to yours. As has been previously stated here your fashion style when in public could be very much improved on what you are wearing in the photo as can your hair though there are many who would dig the dischelved look. If you feel unattractive you will come off seeming that way, enjoy what you are, enhance it with duds and a do and strut your stuff, you are what you feel, feel good about yourself and get on with life, no matter how long your life will be it will always be to short, make it worthwhile.
You're clearly overweight. Not crazy fat, but you're not in shape and everyone can tell. And you need to fix the hair. Maybe the unkempt look would be better if you were in shape or had decent clothes but with what you're wearing and the shape you're in it just makes you look like your average 23-39 yr old male who doesn't know anything about looking good. Lose weight, work out, get a hair cut. This is from a straight man's perspective, you'll probably go from a 3 to a 7.
YES Master. Your almighty 20ness trumps my 15ocity by a staggering 5 years. Surely enough time to experience life so fully as to be able to to talk down and educate me. Grow up? Real world? Don't assume. The only thing you know of me is my age. Not my experience.
hey man there is nothing wrong with you who told you that? and or why whould you want to think that way? oh yes the greatest enemy of your own self whould be the vision of your own self that you see in the mirror hey man not everybody see you the same way you see your self people havent hung around you as long as you hung around yourself
I blame genetics, go turn on the microwave and sit on it for a while, maybe your genes will alter and be similar to Brad Pitts or something.
