What do you do when you realize you aren't attractive?

Elaborate? origigigigigigi

>but it seems like girls have much higher standards than guys
I think some of it is confimation bias. E.g. you see one unattractive girl fall for Chad and think "damn, I can't even get someone like her" while ignoring all the average-looking people around you dating other average-looking people. There's plenty of 5/10 girls being fine with 5/10 guys as long as they think "it's the right one". The really difficult thing might be actually going out to meet girls but then again, I know a guy who's 4/10 and a complete loser career-wise, yet he managed to hook up with a decent looking girl on a dating site. Nothing is really impossible, I guess.

Valid point. Do you just approach a girl who seems to be in your league? Or do you wait until one shows interest and then make your move?

I used to be ugly until puberty. Since then I've been attractive, making my life significantly easier. If I was ugly I'd probably have killed myself.

I photoshop my flaws out and post my picture online to get compliments from strange women, it doesn't fix how hopeless I feel but it makes it more tolerable.

I'm the exact opposite.

Had quite a bit of girls crush on me when I was younger. Then when puberty hit everyone else, that's when my value diminished. I didn't really grow taller and my baby face stayed with me for the rest of my life to the point where I still look 15 even though I'm 21. Really makes me want to end it all desu

There's usually nothing wrong with just trying to casually start a conversation with a person (unless it's obvious she doesn't want to be bothered, e.g. if she's wearing headphones, reading a book, busy talking to Chad etc.). Personally, for me it has always been hard to just start talking to strangers, so I think it's easier if you already know each briefly from school, work, some activity you're both participate in, etc. It also makes it easier to start a conversation because you're gonna have a topic you both can contribute to. Talking to people at bars or parties might also be an easier option because the atmosphere won't be as "awkward" as just talking to a random person on the street. And I guess dating sites do also work if you don't want to leave the house, even though I've always been skeptical of them.

Speaking of online sites, if you're part of some online community, that might also be a place to meet people. I keep hearing from couples who met each other through WoW, random forums, reddit and what not. I'm pretty sure there are even people who managed to hook up through Jow Forums.

Rip, to be honest high school was my peak in terms of girls as they noticed how attractive i turned out, now i'm in college i still get a lot of attention on dating apps but i'm too poor and lazy to bother with roasties, i barely even go to lectures. wish i was motivated because i could definitely fuck a lot of girls, but i don't really care right unless i'm really drunk and when i'm on drugs and girls approach me i'm thot-immune as i just want to do more drugs. many an opportunity has been lost when girls have tried to speak to me when i'm on mdma and i speak gibberish then walk away from them forgetting i even spoke to them with my memory reduced to that of a gold fish

It's too late, you're permanently fucked up

I got a decent amount of attention my senior year in hs after I had been lifting and had gotten a little buff... My memory was shattered with mdma and xanax and I feel as though I have to rebuild my personality from scratch.. My jaw got fucked up from puberty and now I have an underbite. With surgery I might be able to fix it but until then I'm just an ogre. I have a feeling you and I will make it.. even if barely.

I play a lot of video games and spend most of my time either doing that, posting on Jow Forums or watching Youtube, all so I can simulate the feeling of having friends and people who will let me listen to what they have to say. I feel incredibly ugly and I have no desire to work out, study or do anything else, my mom is paying for my food and everything. If she dies or I drop out of school I can always kill myself and my family won't feel as bad as they would if I do it right now. I think this is a good plan because the alternative has shown itself to be impossible. I can't improve my life by myself so I stay in this state of stagnation.

get the fuck of this board attractive normies

Ogre lol, luckily i have a decent group of mates at home even though i hate everyone at uni and they keep my social life alive by inviting me to shit. even the uni people invite me to stuff but i don't really like going that much anymore now i've tried to cut down on reckless drug usage

also got diagnosed this year with adhd and aspergers, apparently no one noticed it until now even though my brother has the same

i've been fucked up since a young age. i can remember wanking in a hospital car park. 10/10 would do again

probably been on here longer than you madlad

Can't confirm that. Lookwise, I am the same way. Fat, ugly and full with acne in my puberty, handsome in my 20s. Had Tinder and got 15 matches a day (I never had any filters on my photos, just my face and body, never shirtless because I developed a gyno in my teenage years), got even asked out, never came to these dates and deleted Tinder. I can't talk to woman in real life and still have a hard time making friends.
I'm a 24 years old khv and my teenage yeary destroyed my life and all of my self confidence forever, regardless how much I lift, regardless how low my bodyfat are, I will forever remember how evil people are from the time I was fat and how they threated me.

RAPE

luckily i lost my virginity when i was in high school, i'm far too anti-social and autistic now i'm not forced to compete with others. i don't know why i don't reply to girls or try and set up dates anymore, i always intend to but just never follow through, i kind of have the inner desire, maybe i'm just scared cos it's been a while

When I was a kid, I had no friends and nobody liked being around me.

I'm actually going through the opposite right now. People actually like me and girls like talking to me and flirting with me. It's very different and I'm not used to it in any way. I can't see myself as attractive and I have no clue how anyone else does.

Op pic related is me... really think im attractive?? Thanks for feeding my ego, but really doesn't change the fact that I'm a virgin and have zero friends. I know.. I loft and don't have cystic acne, still as degenerate as any other

When I was a kid I was popular, now I have no one to speak to? What do you do that I don't?

I have no idea. I'm still the exact same, if a little more petty (yes, petty. I didn't misspell that.) and goofy. People frequently invite me to places and want me to be around them. A girl I used to work with straight up told me she wanted to fuck me, and offered a bunch of times as well as asked to go on dates. I've had girls online as well take interests in me and give me nudes lately as well.

I'm not saying this to show off, but I know it's going to come off that way anyways. I'm just saying, I have no idea what I'm doing but somehow good things are happening to me. I can only tally it to luck.

going through my old pictures
>mfw group of girls made me birthday cake for 16th birthday

now i have none to speak to. feelsbadman. still better than most people get

Yeh, self improvement. It's either that or wallow in self pity and that only leads to r9k.

...

user I feel like I can relate to you on a certain level that most r9k khv'x cant. We were both wanted at a certain point. I had a large group of female friends my first year of college most attractive, but lost them all due to drugs and autism. You're on fire rn like how I was, don't duck it up.

I don't do any drugs and I don't want to so I can't really fuck up because of that.

But yeah I'll try not to. For you, user.

OP here again.... srsly, dont fuck it up. Whatever you're doing is working. Go out, be social and escape from this place. God speed user. Oh, lift heavy things too while you're at it

Amen brother. I'm too far gone but i'll live on through you. I lost my oneitis. Don't let me down. You are my only hope.

I've already pretty much escaped Jow Forums and the internet. I just hang around because it's too steeped in my DNA at this point. I'm too used to spending time in my room, alone, talking to people on Runescape or skype or Jow Forums. It is what it is.

I actually have a girl that I like online. I'll probably ask her out but I have no intentions of doing so any time soon.

Run and don't look back. Ask her out, Despite what Jow Forums says, you will be happiest with a girl. This place only leads to despair. Run to the promised lands, I'll meet you there someday. Have children, Be a proper father figure. Roasties are a meme. IF you are good enough, then follow through. You have been chosen by god. Pass on your genes you are adequate.

Honestly I stopped caring a while ago. I'm just glad I'm in relatively good physical health.

Will do user. Just... In due time.

I'm about ready to pass out. Good night.

When I got horrific cystic acne in late high school and puberty just made everything worse.

It's crazy how fast everything changed. People who are blatantly unattractive get treated completely differently. It's in the way people treat you, how they look at you, talk about you, EVERYTHING. Flirting went from just teasing and having fun with girls to them thinking you're a creep hitting on them if you ask for a pencil. You're instantly a creep if you try and pursue anyone so you just don't, and then you get shit for that too.

It also rapes when your fucking self-esteem/confidence, which is EVERYTHING for a successful man in society. All you can do is cope, or looksmax if you have the balls for it.

Sure. You never get dissapointed, but you also never feel anything during victories.

My attractive qualities do not show up on selfies...
