What do you really look like?

[pinkporridge]

i dont think i look attractive and i always look fatter in pics.. but photos depend on camera angles and light so u prob do look different in pics as to in mirrors..

It was sarcasm Donnie!

Then you should've used :sarcasm

And don't most people usually just shave their heads instead of having to deal with growing hair?

Not me :dunno

Yeah, I always get that *gasp* moment when I see myself in pictures...I can go out and feel really great about how I look and then someone snaps a photo, tags it on facebook and I want to gag. I always sort of think, "is that really what I look like!?"

I think I look the same.. But I do have a few pictures that think look better than what I see in the mirror.

this is why i made the thread.

when i search this topic online most people say that in pictures they look "worse" then looking in a mirror. but its the same person, but if i would see someone in person that i saw in a picture they would look exactly the same to me.

is it in our heads(phycological) that we look different or do we actually look like we do in pictures or in the mirror. Do we see the same as other people see us.

I used to sometimes feel bad about how I looked in photos, but I really dont care now. I'll never be model of the week but lets face it, even the worlds most beautiful celebs get snapped looking like shit.

I often like how I look in the mirror better than in pictures. I can even be looking in the mirror and then take a picture and think, "I dont look like that....". Strange.

I dont see the same person looking back at me as many people say they see when they look at me or see a picture whatever. I see someone who struggeled most their teenage life with not looking the "right" way only to grow into an adult becoming comfortable with that exact fact.
I was never popular and was never one of those girls in school guys wanted to date, infact any guy i dated in highschool was so down on himself and they way he looked that i though that was all i deserved.
Im older not so bloody wiser but realise hey Im not a clone i dont look like all the other pretty women do but what i have i use to my advantage and it gets me into more trouble than out of most the time.
I dont think im stunningly gorgeous or the kind of girl that every guy wants and in highschool if you asked me what i wanted i would have told you that was it. these days, i couldnt be stuffed to be honest haha. I more than make up in bed for what i lack in looks :24: Yup i have an ego too!
