Do you think you're unattractive/ugly?

And if so why? does it affect your self-esteem?

Ive seen ur pics in the pic thread and i cant believe you actually feel hideous. But I do know people with body dysmorphia so its not impossible... r u getting treatment for it?
I don't think I'm ugly but I don't think I'm beautiful either. I'm just... a human. I have days where I feel more attractive and days where I think I look a bit bleugh.

I don't think I'm unattractive or ugly. But I wouldn't say I'm a 10/10. Maybe 8/10.
Why? I guess because I received positive affirmation from family members, friends and of course social media. It's definitely a confidence boost but there are days when I don't feel 100% either. :dontknow:
I think I’m quite attractive but I do have those days.
People say I'm attractive but I can't see it and I don't believe it :frown:
Yes I am ugly... I’m a 16 year old female. I’m ugly I don’t ever post any selfies it effects me in everyday life I always compare myself to other girls that are pretty and have no imperfections I hate taking pictures especially with friends because I always notice something wrong with me and compare myself to friends... I hate my life and wanna diieeeeeeeeeee

I flip between 'I look alright today' and 'I look like Shrek's ugly brother'.

My mind can change in the space of a few minutes with no change to my appearance...
yep.I dunno why, I just feel like i am. but it doesn't affect my self esteem though, I'm not really that bothered about it nor do I think about it. 😁
I'm the sorta guy that thinks I'm fugly one moment and next thing you know, I feel like 10/10 when my hairstyle is on point.
I don't look like a model or anything, but there's nothing I'd want to change about myself. I'm pretty content with my appearance, and I love myself as I am.
On a bad day, I'd rate myself as 3/10.
On a good day, it's 8/10.

Don't think I'm anything special at all, but not hideous (I guess just bland-average looking). Doesn't affect me being around people, except it makes me reluctant to approach women out of the blue

I'm definitely unattractive

It really messes with your personal confidence. I dislike going out, to school/uni/shops. I especially dislike group work with people I haven't known for a while, it feels like they're judging me. I dislike the fact that guys who aren't as serious or intelligent will always attract females but I wouldn't have a chance
I'm plain, without makeup on and need a lot of haircare to look reasonable.
I'm also below average height.
I hide from camera phones and never post photos of myself on social media.

My best friend works as a model and always looks amazing.
The only photos of me as an adult are professionally taken studio images, most of which have gone through photoshop.
