I had to ask this question because I feel really insecure about my looks and have mental health problems. I want to know the truth about my appearance whether it's brutal or not. I'm close to turning 25 and never had a girlfriend. I'm really depressed because of it. I feel like a complete idiot for posting this thread on a Fallout forum but I need to know the reality. Am I, ugly, average or maybe decent looking? But this might end up getting confusing for me because looks are very subjective. Everyone has their own opinions to what is beautiful. Anyways I'm taking a big risk here. Thanks if you reply. Chances are, I'm going to get banned from this site. Link below.

1. Average (yes, there is a person for you out there)
2. Please try a dating site not the Fallout forum
3. oh, and inb4 the lock

Your a average looking guy, but this ain't a dating site and if your that desperate their is a thing called prosttutes. And in before lock lol

You look normal, if you've never had a girlfriend it isn't because of your looks. Maybe you're really shy or even have social anxiety, I dunno. I would suggest that you might try to present yourself a bit better though. Nicer and more mature clothes, less disheveled hairstyle. That's just me though.

You are a normal kid life isn't about having girlfriends, believe me, having another human involved in your life can be more trouble than they are worth. You are still young as heck. Enjoy it while you can.

I'd say if you've got the stones to make a video, and make a thread on a forum unrelated to your problem... the next step is asking a girl out. You never succeed, if you never try.

Dude, you're totally normal looking.. you wanna talk fugly with a capital F, take a gander at my mug shot over in community discussion.. I'm freaking HIDEOUS!!

--and I've never let it stop me (I'm also stubborn; I figure if I ask a woman out often enough eventually she'll break down and agree to a date)

With Falchya it was different, for some reason she decided she liked me before she ever saw me, and after she did see me in person I guess she just got used to my sixy neanderthal features..

Looks ain't your problem. It seems like your insecurities are getting in the way of you getting a girlfriend rather than your looks.

Join a few dating sites, theyre great for meeting girls who are maybe in your position where they may be too shy or introverted to meet someone in a bar, nightclub, college, university etc

And keep your chin up dude and don't don't doubt yourself like that, enjoy life. It's too short to be worried about looks.

As a (mostly) straight dude, I'd say you're pretty cute. But I have also have weird preferences. But so do a lot of girls, so bam. If you have mental health problems, though, believe me, getting help HELPS. I've been there.

You're part eggplant

You sound like the Mckenzie Bros, from SCTV/Strange Brew, eh?

Asking people on the internet to rate your looks isn't going to make you feel any better. Once you actually get past your insecurities of your appearance and actually go out and meet people, you'll realize that looks aren't what keep people interested in you, but more so who you are and your personality. Sounds cheesy I know, but a bond between two people isn't made from how attractive they are. Though keeping up with your looks is always good, don't be that concerned of it.

And if you feel you have mental health problems, do try to get the help you need. Be it professional or just talking to someone about it. For your convenience, there is a link to MentalHealth.gov at the bottom of forum pages should you find yourself curious.

You don't pay for something you can get for free. Ever.

On topic...6.5/10

I've lived most of my life assuming I was ugly because no one ever came up to me and said that I am attractive, but eventually I learned that quite a few people find me attractive but one of two things happen; they don't have the confidence to approach me, or when they do make a move on me it goes over my head completely because my first assumption was that they couldn't be flirting with me.

food for thought; very very few people end up completely alone.

I'm a heterosixual guy, but you look pretty average.

Don't worry so much about trying to get a girl. Life's not always about trying to get a partner; some don't "find that one" until they're much, much older than 25. I'm talking senior years (60+). Hell, some people live their entire lives happy and productive without getting the guy/gal because they simply felt like they would be miserable otherwise.

This isn't really so much about your looks, it's more about your anxiety and mental heath issues as you've stated. As Legion said, this forum has the MentalHealth.gov link at the bottom of the page for you to go get the support/help you need.

Its all about confidence man stand up straight chest out chin up (apparenty women respond well to that) and when you see a girl you think is cute go up to her and introduce yourself to her. Try to talk yo her alone (that sounds creepy i know but it will be easier for you that way)

Don't let anyone tell you that you are "ugly" or "average". You are perfectly normal; people who say otherwise are not.

Dating sites seem to be a good idea if you are too shy to show yourself in places where people usually meet to make friends.

Omg your normal

Seriously though you look like an average joe. Nothing wrong with that as there are millions of us Joes world wide hook in up and making babies ( I should know I have 2 lil rascals and another on the way ).

Any who, it took me a bit to figure this out but its all in presentation. I watched a few seconds of your video and my first impression is that your shy and probably easily made uncomfortable. Try being more confident. Girls feel more comfortable with a guy who is easy going.

bro, there is definitely a cougar out there for you.

are your standards too high? sometimes you just need to 'get on the board' before you can 'play the game' haha. some guys that end up holding out for that perfect 10 (whether actively or passively) never get on the board hence fall way behind socially in the realm of dating.

You have a nice smile. I think you shouldn't worry so much about your appearance, it's fine. If you feel more comfortable with yourself, you will be more relaxed and open to people around you.

That's actually fairly off-putting. People who won't take no for an answer are unsettling and irritating.
Good thing you found someone who doesn't mind.

A girl dated me while I was missing most of my teeth. When it really REALLY comes down to it, they only care how you treat them, and not how you look.

You'd get a warning at most if you did what I did in 2004/2005 and made a "who's more attractive - me or my friend" thread.

I think you look like a normal, attractive, person. Certainly not ugly, but you're not Chris Hemsworth either. I think the reason you may not have been in a relationship since you were 25 has more to do with your confidence and preconceived notions than how you look. You mentioned that you have mental health problems, and I'm not going to make any assumptions but I'd strongly suggest (like others) getting the right help for yourself before you focus on someone else.

i still say the answer is cougars.
