Guys, what do you think about girls who have "pretty" photos on Instagram

but are average looking or even unattractive in real life? :tongue:

Not because they are photogenic but because they take 30 photos and choose one etc.

They get my hopes up and then drop them like Chelsea's premier league position
For me instagram doesn't reflect someone normally. If I take a bunch of photos at a party i'll maybe put one or two of the best on there. We all do it without even realising. So personally it doesn't even bother me at all.

Obviously not a guy, but if looking attractive in that photo gives them confidence and makes them feel pretty, leave them to it! Everyone should get to feel pretty one way or another.

Not quite because they are so many girls that I wouldn't have noticed her before

What about selfies where the girl is purposely trying to look hotter than she really is tho

I just realised I do this :getmecoat:

The guys I know always moan about this though, like it's "false advertising" like makeup or something :dontknow:

Yes unless they follow me first, it would be impolite to not follow back. Guys often brows without following

Some girls can legit add 3 or 4 more points in selfies though. Turning the colours up, taking photos from certain angles like looking down, etc. I can't do that lol they must have serious skills, they look like different people

But a photo of myself is not an advertisement :/
:hmmmm2:

Never thought about it before.

Ok, so even though I don't use Instagram, I reckon there's nothing wrong with them wanting to look their best :smile:
Wanna see a girl, look at her instagram

If you want to see the real girl, look at the photos she's tagged in on Facebook :rofl:
