Alright... I'm posting a pic...

[MattW]

Heh heh, I feel a little weird doing this but eh... Basically, I'm just curious to see how much (if at all) my looks set me back in the "dating world" since, yanno, no one's ever really told me either way, heh... So... Here's a pic; it's not the best pic in the world (the person taking the picture managed to chop off the top of my head a little), and it was taken while I was playing that Rock Band game with some other people (for some reason, whenever I play that, I get "overheated", or something, so that's why my face is red, lol).

Chances are, later in the day, I'll probably remove this pic after some people have replied, if only because I'm too self-conscious to leave it up any longer than that.

Lose the scruff on the neck, either cut your hair or let it grow but in between isn't right for you and you will get much more female attention, you are lovable.

[Supa_gurl]

I think you are handsome...Hey! I have a 21 year old sister, wanna meet her? lol

[Crazyaboutdogs]

Your looks certainly wouldn't set you back in the dating world. I wouldn't stress about it if I were you.

[nutbrownhare]

No problems - you're a good-looking fella! (You could consider losing the bumfluff though!)

[Ammy]

I agree with the others, you're cute. (I too am not into the facial hair much though, hehe.. but that's personal preference.)

 

Don't stress about your looks, you have nothing to worry about!

Heh heh, yeah, I just kinda let the facial hair grow out because I'm really short (5'2", 5'3"), and without it, people often mistake me for being under the age of 12. T_T I'm trying to get it to grow out more, but I'm not too sure how to "make" it grow, heh... I take it that's what you meant by "cut your hair"? I don't know that you can see the hair on my head all that well, lol, so I'm just assuming that's not what you meant. If it is, though, yeah, normally, I like my hair fairly short, but I'm lazy with going out to get my hair cut.

[NewPhillyGuy]

Dude, don't worry so much about what people think. You need to look the way you want to look.

[COtuner]

I'd dump the black t-shirt too, unless you're just wearing it for gaming. It makes me think of stoners. But that's personal taste.

 

BTW - wearing scruff to look older doesn't really work. There was a guy at the gym yesterday with a beard who was a freshman in college. Instead of looking more mature, he looked like he was playing in "Fiddler on the Roof" in the school play... I think dressing nicely helps give a better assessment of age.

Ah, yeah, that's a t-shirt of a band I'm a fan of. I'm way into music, so I like wearing band shirts like that; 'course, pretty much any band I'm into would have t-shirts that are black, heh...

Mm. Yeah, I'm not very "fashion-savvy", so I have no idea where to begin looking into that, lol.

Dude, didn't you know all photos posted on this site are going into the "ENA-people" folder of my computer?

No, I don't think your looks would "set you back in the dating world". You must be crazy

Don't need to be GQ.... just thinking of wearing more of a "real" shirt and clean jeans or khakis or cargos when you're in an environment where you'd like to be "available".

[hmdreamer7]

You lookin' good to me! And on a side note... rock band rules!!

[Cognitive_Canine]

Grow your hair out a little bit and lose the neck scruff.

 

Also, you could find shirts that worked better with you.

 

However, you have a good facial structure and nice eyes. Maybe give us a pic with a smile?

 

You definitely have a lot of potential. You look like one of my friends.

[definitely_maybe]

Dude, don't worry so much about what people think. You need to look the way you want to look.

 

I would not interpret this advice as "don't change anything." When you look your best, it boosts your confidence. Don't be afraid to try something new to optimize your look.

There is no way I know of to get your facial hair to grow in thicker. Maybe you should try that little soul patch thing on the chin?

 

The shorter or longer hair I meant is your head hair, if you are lazy about haircuts then let it get shaggy, young women love that.

Ah, heh heh. I kinda like my hair shorter, to be honest. Yanno, funny thing, I bought this thing that's supposed to help you give yourself a haircut; unfortunately, mine must be defective (and I *think* I missed the return date...). It charges for an annoying 16 hours, and it's supposed to last 40 minutes, but mine seems to only last 5-10 before the battery dies. What's worse is, it can't be used while plugged in, nor does it seem to turn on if the battery isn't fully charged. Hmph...

[laisla]

you look completely normal. i could see enough girls wanting to be with you.

i think you SHOULD have some facial hair. maybe a gotee. but i agree with others, don't really like the neck scruff.

[iwalas]

Mm. Yeah, I'm not very "fashion-savvy", so I have no idea where to begin looking into that, lol.

 

you don't have to be fashion savvy. if you're going out to just hang with your buds, dress how you want and don't worry about shaving...you're not trying to date your guy-friends i assume. if you want to make an impact with women, dressing up isn't much harder than a shave, a polo or long-sleeved shirt, a pair of (nice) khakis or slacks, and shoes that aren't for running/mowing the lawn. you might not be "hotter" than every guy at the bar, but you will def. score points over the guys who dress down.

 

but yea, don't worry about if your look is "datable"...be yourself and stop worrying, it will show through whatever you're wearing. if you are worrying and nervous, girls will worry and be nervous about chatting with you.

Well done on posting a pic, I did it too and I felt really awkward and worried people would come on and tell me how ugly I was. Most people have either been nice or been neutral.

 

You look fine, I wouldn't worry at all. Don't forget that most women won't approach a man or show any interest just because that is how women behave.

[Brightest Dark]

You're not my type (but I'm the pickiest person on earth!) - but you're not bad looking. I haven't checked back to your other posts so don't know if you've dated others before or have had no luck at all... but I am sure many girls would like you.

 

I would not cut your hair or do something just because people on here say to though. We are all different and we all like different things. While some girls like guys who look normal and have short hair, others like longer hair and a more 'rocker' type look, for example. Just be who you are. Maybe if after 20 more years if you haven't dated anyone, THEN maybe take people's advice!

[JadedStar]

You look like a perfectly normal 20 year old guy to me...not much different than any of my son's friends on the scale of attractiveness. I do not think your looks should be a stumbling block for you. It will come down to the way your carry yourself most likely.

[Lowconfidence]

You're not a bad-looking guy. The only thing I can think of that physically holds you back is your height. Unfortunately you will have less options because most females prefer guys taller than them. This is not a knock towards you.

I don't like the idea of people posting pics on this site.You are not getting a representative opinon of the general public anyway.What do you expect people to say,''yes,you are ugly ,you are a hopeless case''.Most people[who post there pics] are looking for the confidence boost that they think people will give them,''oh yes,you've got nothing to worry about you are attractive''.

Agreed, no one is ever told they are ugly here so it really is pointless.
