looksmaxxing without fixing ur social circle first is basically useless

[kdev]

i see guys on here spending months fixing their appearance, getting results, and then reporting back that nothing really changed in their life. and everyone jumps to "ur not goodlooking enough yet" but i think thats the wrong diagnosis the real problem is that ur still surrounded by the same people who knew u before. and people who knew u before have a fixed image of u that they are genuinely unwilling to update regardless of how u look now

its not malicious its just how human psychology works. the people around u need the version of u they already know to stay consistent because it helps them feel stable about their own identity so u can glow up all u want but if ur still sitting in the same friendgroup, same school hallways, same workplace, those people will find ways to keep u in the box they already put u in

the guys who report the most dramatic life changes after looksmaxxing almost always moved to a new city, changed jobs, or completely switched their social circle around the same time. and everyone attributes it to the looks when really it was the new environment meeting the new appearance at the same time looks open doors but only doors u havent already been seen walking through as ur old self

what are yalls observation to this?
