Yes this is what I'm thinking. Those people were never ugly to begin with, just not maintained as far as their hygiene, weight, skin,etc..
Most accurate thing I have read so far,
What looksmax did you do for things to improve so drastically ?
Oh so you were already GL and just softmaxxed... Suifuel I need modified LF3...
Can you send a photo when you are wearing the lenses
Ofcourse they were ugly. Having acne or being fat is one of the easiest ways to be ugly.
You weren’t even that bad looking. Ded srs. You must have been aspie as fuckOfcourse they were ugly. Having acne or being fat is one of the easiest ways to be ugly.
Hygiene, weight, skin is often just a resemblance of the way your parents raised you. For example me:
-Raised in poverty and told that fashion is a waste of money and shallow. Result: I wore old used ugly clothes that never fit me properly.
-Both parents were obese and always pushed me to eat more (unhealthy) food. Result: I was fat.
-Never had a proper haircut because I was told self-care is a waste of money and shallow and I should just get easy buzzcut.
Going against my parents in any of this would lead to them sabotaging me.
Also this so much. Going from ugly to average is a ridiculous difference. You finally have a chance at life.
My personal experience: When I was ugly I tried all kinds of different hobbies, to see what I liked. Like: Kung-Fu, playing in an orchestra with my violin and giving first aid at events.
In all of those situations I was treated like utter shit, bullied, and rejected by my peers. They never wanted to hangout afterwards and would always bad-talk me behind my back. In the end social acceptance is just as important as liking the hobby itself, so I quit several activities that I really liked doing, simply because I wasn't welcome socially there. Even when I did get friends there, they would backstab me when they had a chance to interact with those better looking than me.
You end up playing videogames, one of the few places where your looks don't matter.
I was 17 in the most left picture, but in my childhood I was much uglier than that even.

11yo here (life was brutal)
Most interesting is that even adults: teachers, parents, etc. would treat me like utter shit at this age. I never had the benefit of the doubt and would often be singled out for punishment.
Typical example in a classroom: Many people were being noisy other than me and the teacher would get mad at the class in general. Not single out these people for punishment but just start shouting at the whole class.
Then if I was noisy in such a situation, the teacher would always single me out for punishment instead. 8 people including Syo being noisy? Time to punish Syo.
I've even had a teacher tell me I 'look like a bully so I don't believe you' when I was accused of something I didn't do.
Now: Life is objectively good/easy. But A LOT of damage has been done and I am very poorly adjusted to life. I have deep traumas for the shit that happened to me in the past (suffered from parental child abuse on top of the school bullying).
And it's still not easy to make new friends. As you can see in the picture, the way I look now is very dominant/masculine. I didn't choose this face and neutral face expression, but people seem to be afraid of me and treat me like their enemy. I can smile constantly like some retard to try and make people like me, which I sometimes do, but it still sucks fucking hard.
I hate social interaction and validation now that I know how shallow it is and how I get treated now. But at the same time I crave it, because I am only human.
I agree, but I was clearly below average and that combined with an extroverted personality where I behaved like I was good-looking was a death sentence.
