(30M) I'm relatively ugly and I'd like some advice

Good evening, (photo of me) as you can see I'm ugly, and I need to know how I can work on my self-confidence to compensate and think less about my bad appearance, what is the best remedy?

I've got some news for you. You're actually quite attractive. Seriously. Former professional portrait photographer here. I'd have no issue with your face or bod in my portfolio. Your concerns about your appearance are in your head, they're not reflected by the reality of what I'm seeing here.

I'm not exactly blessed with copious amounts of social grace, so I can assure you that if your face really did look something like the back end of a bovine, I would have said something to that effect.

Hope this helps.
 
What gives you the idea that you are ugly?

Is it entirely your own idea?
Or have people said things to you?
Other men on the looksmaxing forum told me I was doomed because I didn't fit the standards and said I should get surgery because my nose and lips were too big, according to them
 
They are being foolishly arbitrary about that. Balanced people like what they like - not what some website tells them they should like.
 
Every look has its fan base.

Remember: your ancestor --who looked like you-- got a date.

Welcome, @Fabrice1

You are a perfectly good looking guy. I can't imagine anyone not finding you attractive.

Truthfully. I'd disregard people like that. Infact. I'd avoid vanity-based forums like that. Places like that serve to ego boost already insecure people, who opt to narcissism. Not a healthy environment by any means. Especially when it comes to already suffering self-esteem.

The only opinion that truly matters, is your own.

Yeah, these are guys who smack themselves in the face with a hammer for hours each day thinking it somehow makes them more attractive. You can ignore what they say. I'd be thrilled to have your looks. Wanna trade for a 57-year-old dad bod and some thinning hair? It's yours if you say the word.

One of the most unique introductions I have ever come across. 🤔
