>consider myself somewhat attractive when look myself in the mirror
>consider suicide when seeing myself in cameras/pictures
why
To everyone who says this: its because over time your mind starts to see the best of yourself in the mirror, gets used to it for egos sake. However when you see yourself from other angles that conditioning breaks down and you see yourself for how you actually are, probably not that attractive.

Ugh, that makes sense I guess. It sucks

It does. I used to think of myself as a 7. But over time realized I am a 5, maybe even a 4. It crushed my self-esteeml
pictures distort everything. there's a reason people pay others to take good pictures, they (hopefully) know what they're doing. they manipulate lighting, angles, focal length, and other things, to make you look good.
don't ever trust a picture, it's all bullshit
>>29297722
its because in your mirror you see your reflection while on photos you see yourself like other people do. because your face is mirrored it seems unfamiliar and ugly to you

Iktf man
Went to my cousin's birthday party yesterday and I was looking at the pics today and cringing at myself about how ridiculous I look.

So you're saying it's just a matter of getting used to your image? Like, if you saw your real image and not your reflection in the mirror you wouldn't find yourself ugly when looking at pics? I can see that.
>>29297722
I had the exact same feeling. I started making pictures of myself for fun, and I look good. It is
all about the angle and the light.
Can take a lot of pictures to get it right though. Hope I will not turn in a social media attention whore, when I finally go on normiebook.

My girlfriend says I'm attractive in person but terrible in pictures
I dunno, maybe some just don't look good in photos
>>29298689
There are two options:
>not the right lighting or angle
>girlfriend is lying
Seriously

This is not always true at all. Pictures are extremely tricky. There is a reason why models and movie stars pay $1000's of dollars to get professional head shots. A shitty camera phone in the wrong lighting can make anyone look hideous. Cameras take a 2d photo of yourself which isn't realistic, makes you look flat. Its all about the quality of the lens, lighting, angles and the way you pose.
Then again, the mirror is not a great representation on how you look either. Usually it has over head lighting which makes your face look more structured than it really is.
All you need is pic related senpai
