Not posting photos

I'm not talking about angularity or asymmetries. When i go look in the mirror, nothing jumps to my eyes : ''that's a bad feature''. Since i'm in motion and the eyes are better than cameras when it comes to perceiving faces. But as soon as i take a mirror pic i look weird af, like going from 6-7 to a 4.

It's like my harmony disappears and i see everything on my face as a flaw , my face gets narrow af even tho irl my skull is wide (alongside my face) . Since it's mirror selfies/videos it's not that much lens distortion. I have a samsung galaxy a12 so obviously it's a trash camera , maybe lighting conditions too.

What causes this? Am i retarded and delusional? I know mirrors and the eyes are more accurate than phone cameras but this affects me in a bad way because it makes me doubt on what's real and what's not and i can't take proper nt pics +weirdo stare in mirror photos . Maybe the mirror matters too

Few people are actually ugly. Most people fall around average-looking. However, it's very common for average-looking or even beautiful people to look bad in particular pictures. It turns out pictures are much harsher than real life - meaning they over-emphasise flaws

Yes and no.

He looks for better angles to emphasise his strengths, but you can also do this in the mobile phone's selfie camera, just not to as much success because of the distortion.

Understand it bredgrin.

Yeah Chad does, that's why he's Chad and top 10% of the population.

He has not a single flaw and mostly strengths, so any distortion will be good distortion.

Retarded way of looking at it and why most of you autists have BDD.

Chad, 1 in 10? that's too generous, more like 1 in 100
Anyway you only have one life and it's all or nothing

they look good from your perspective , meanwhile some chads obsess over every mm of their face and make them doubt themselves on how they actually look like. I think people are more used to seeing themselves in the mirror not in photos, also stop sucking chads dick

Sorry to bear the bad news

you are very subject to ‘familiar face effect’ when looking at yourself in the mirror. basically you are so used to your face that it looks better. its a well documented psychological “phenomenon”.

take a vid in the mirror for more accuracy than a pic
I don't look the same in videos compared to photos, i look better in videos tho

Imo the mirror is too forgiving cuz of the exposure effect. Also getting close enough for a proper look still has distortion from your eye.

I have a very high quality fuji camera and a video taken by that from 6 feet away was the best way to let me know what I look like

You might be doing it without realising. Relax your face THEN go to the mirror and look.

But why do I look better in pictures than in the mirror? I honestly prefer pics of myself over what I look like in the mirror.

Also, don't get the point where you can't notice your flaws in the mirror. My flaws are more apparent in mirrors than in pictures.
 
muh bdd
you just look like shit
that is possible if you are constantly doubting and criticizing yourself, but what about when you think you look average, then think you're above average then completely subhuman ? Could it be lack of self esteem/confidence?

Looooool these autists with no personality or world identity needing to look like a top 10% guy so that they are spoon-fed into developing a personality through society's feedback loop.

What else do you suppose we do? Hypergamy nowadays is insane. Actual white chadlites are dumpster diving for grannies. You need to be HTN min with top tier body to get LTR with MTB.

When I look at Ballou, none of his features in isolation look super good. His eye area is bad when you look at it close up. But I still agree he is gigaChad :hnghn::hnghn: what causes that

Average couple is looksmatched, hypergamy is a cope created by average looking narcies so they can explain how they’re “totally chadlites” while still being unsuccessful with women

who cares about LTR it's absolutely subhuman and a waste of time

can't get laid regularly while girls can get laid regularly which means hypergamy

have you ever thought that it's problematic you need to do so much to get laid? it's economically inefficient

I am subhuman of course. I know that. But have you checked some of the tinder experiments on here? And the fact that dudes rated chads here get called subhuman by foids? Chadlites are literally going for grannies.

I hope what you are saying is true as I have bad stats as a subhuman ethnic.

it's much easier to cope that hypergamy doesn't exist or the world is just than to accept reality

even on this forum some people cling onto delusion because they are weak-willed

Why not escortcel? It's far more efficient than looksmaxxing. IDK why I am bothering with surgeries. I have been emailing surgeons all week and trying to contact them on insta but they don't respond. Maybe my goals are delusional.

Nigga, you have 8x6 if your sig is true. You have been getting by on dickpill. I am going to need extenders to get to 7-7.5.

What are your tinder matches like?
Like 13 on the first day and 1-2 every day after that. But Tinder isn't real life. No shit the best looking guys are gonna get most of the matches when the male to female ratio is extremely skewed + you swipe based on pictures. Irl is everything.

But the thing is even the ugliest girls can get chad from tinder. It's an option for her. Normies can't get a stacy the same way. They'd have to run numbers game and compensate with money and status. Even then it's not worth it due to the amount of BS they have to put up with.

Nigga looks masculine so he def has sex appeal. I can believe he can get decent women and possibly above average women IRL. But online racepill probably murders him. I bet if he got a buzzcut, wore chains and edited his face to look more black, he could get lots of matches online. @VicMackey Try this even with faceapp and photoshop. It could work.

not gonna lie I find IRL MUCH MUCH MUCH harder

i can't even get female friends IRL because i feel i might look too intimidating

how does a dark skin tone masc with no undereye hollowing get female friends or LTR?

Actually thought you were trolling but I wouldn't be surprised the dude you LARPed as would be incel because of hypergamy. Chadlites and chads are too easy to access by women.
