    Does this happen to you when you get your roots touched up?

    There will always be someone younger, in better shape,and more appealing to the eye. The one thing they can't be is me. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    I always tell people, that believe that; they're unattractive: "That's great because it means, that you don't have so many other problems; to consume that time with."!

    I've learned that even though I don't ever feel attractive, I am happy being me. That came with age for me though.

    I'm glad you are happy being you. For the record, you ARE an attractive man.
    I never feel attractive TBH. I come off like I do, and plenty of people think I'm totally full of myself, but I struggle with insecurity pretty bad most days.

    We are all guilty of self deprecating... despite compliments (which I am really bad at taking), attention from partners, or even strangers. Some days you just feel like a pile of crap. And that's ok, you're allowed to have an ugly day- we all are.

    Don't let it make or break you, OP. It's really minuscule in the grand scheme of things- there's far more to life- feeling pretty is low on the totem pole.

    The truth is...regardless of whether or not you will believe it... You are truly a beautiful person, inside and out.

    Feeling unattractive doesn't mean people don't have other problems. In fact it's often a symptom of deeper problems. Dealing with the deeper issues can resolve it. I haven't read these books. But, I saw someone recommending The Gift of Imperfection by Brene Brown.

    I agree, that's why I said: "so many"! I have so many issues that consume my time, that if I spent anytime focusing on my attractiveness; I'd then have no time to enjoy anything!

    I have been accused of many things--- but this, this hurts!

    I would never. Ever. Ever!

    As usual, I'm behind bars (:insert not surprised face here:) and I just respond to whoevers quoted me to avoid the... Drama. :lol:

    That's a healthy outlook. You allow yourself to enjoy things (even though you face many challenges) rather than focusing on your attractiveness. A lot of people don't allow themselves to enjoy life in favor of worrying about their attractiveness. And I mean it often comes from a much deeper place.

    I often feel unattractive than I look in the mirror and watch my frown turn upside down. It's all about how you see yourself . Who cares what others think rsjsm5ti180g.jpeg

    Anyone feel unattractive no matter how hard you try

    Learning to love yourself is the first step to fitness. You can be fit af, eat clean, have insane muscles, and still feel crappy about yourself. I am still working on accepting this and learning on a daily basis to love myself and my body for how strong it is instead of focusing so much on making comparisons to social media models that seem "perfect." You are always to big, too small, too blonde, too brunette, too short, too tall...for someone. There is no cookie cutter image that will please everyone, and even if there was, why would you want to be like everyone else?!

    I dislike this, for me though; I was the: "pretty geek" (during school).

    I hate when I hear that being said about anyone. Punch them in the throat next time.

    Definitely throat punch.

    This is why, we'll never know; whose the hottest guy or girl because no 1's able to agree 100%! Someone I might believe's more attractive than me, someone else might believe; I am more attractive than!

    Maybe I do feel unattractive most of the time.. but then I realized who cares? Why do I care what other people think of me? I like me even if I am unattractive.

    I wish I could think like this,hopefully one day I will. When you hear that your fat and ugly for the majority of your life,you do start to believe it.

    I totally understand. When I lived with my sister there wasn't a day that went by she didn't tell me I was fat. On top of that I seriously needed braces and everyone loved reminding me of it.. At the end of the day if you can at least love yourself no one else matters.
