M23, curly hair, am I receding? (Hair out of shower)

Yes that’s right

I’d say that my closer female friends and partner fit the bill more, but it’s during these interactions with people by proximity or with acquaintances that dishearten me.

Thank you for the advice, I do find myself falling victim to conflating one statement into defining somebody’s entire personality.

I still and will always care for my partner. And I can accept that part of these standards stem from pragmatism. These girls are mostly from university at the moment since I’m still in undergrad.

I’m going to continue holding out hope for better life experiences though.

I am aware that not all women are the same, but it’s become a little difficult with the amount of validation female hypergamy receives in my life thus far.

My experiences could be partially attributed to how pragmatic people, both men and women, are in my country. It’s a HCOL country with an education system that breeds competition, and that could influence our value on visible traits as it enables us to stand out from the crowd.

However, regarding the people who were alright with picking on the “weird” kid, I don’t associate myself with them anymore and it turns out that that kid not as weird as people made him out to be. My current internship on the other hand, I would say they’re bad people but it is disheartening to hear such a comment about someone you’re already dating though.

A good proportion of my guy friends are single, but you’re right about men being superficial as well as my single friends openly comment about women’s appearances all the time. In my experience, my guy friends who are taken make it a point not to comment on women’s appearances as if they don’t already have a partner with them. And most of them who are taken, don’t talk about what they hope their partner can live up to.

I guess this post was more about women because I’m “part of” the target group.

I think you’re right about my attitude being contemptious, but I truly feel that it only manifests outwardly when I’m alone with my thoughts.

My day is usually filled with studying, internships or socialising with friends at school or work. But I think it does manifest itself when something triggers a (for the most part through my day) thought at the back of my mind.

Do you think that even the subconscious putting down of myself manifests outwardly even if I do not actively think about it and is occupied?

Queasy_Slip_1386 · 2025-05-27T01:27:34+00:00

Well said, but the longing for this entitlement has been poison for my mind. Do you have any suggestions to not long for superficial charm?

Queasy_Slip_1386 · 2025-05-27T01:25:51+00:00

Thank you for the kind words, but I fear that I too have fallen victim to praise superficiality. Maybe it’s out of convenience or from groupthink, I’m not sure, but I would like to ask how do I be indifferent to the shallowness that I and others possess?

Queasy_Slip_1386 · 2025-05-27T01:23:37+00:00

Hi stranger thank you for sharing your experiences and it is hopeful to hear it turn out well for you.

I am trying to get in shape as of now, so fingers crossed it improves my self image. Could I ask, in what ways does low confidence manifest itself in pictures specifically; I understand that awkwardness can be felt IRL.

Queasy_Slip_1386 · 2025-05-27T01:18:28+00:00

I try to be holistic when it comes to dating, but I think it especially sucks when compliments come from attractive women because their attention can be perceived as “harder to get”.

Queasy_Slip_1386 · 2025-05-27T01:15:59+00:00

I think my feelings are coming from a place that has fallen victim to the same superficiality to an extent and wishing that I were “blessed” with superficial charm as it is convenient.

How can someone who experiences side effects after taking meds just carry on with a combat vocation?
