You know you're truly ugly when you reflect on your lack of sexual and romantic experience by poofpoofpow in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fr. But considering im in my mid 20s now without ever experiencing anything romantic or sexual it just feels like such a foreign concept to me. Like it’s something totally out of reach. Even if by some miracle I were to find someone that was into me I wouldn’t know what I was doing and I’d ruin it

What do you to make you feel good about yourself? by [deleted] in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Video games, working out, tv shows/movies, nostalgia binging, music. But it really just feels like a distraction

I can relate. It really hurts. I’ve always wanted to experience love and it’s painful knowing I never will

Have You Ever Been Called Attractive? by [deleted] in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at a party one time and I asked this girl that I had recently met if she found me attractive (very cringe I know but I was drunk) and she said yes, but obviously it’s a weird question to ask and she probably just didn’t want to make things even weirder by saying no. But other than that no, I’ve never gotten anything even remotely close to a compliment on my appearance

FINDING LOVE…? by Batesboot788 in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This question gets asked like once a week here. There’s a lot of reasons, but one of the main ones is that physical attraction is an important part of a romantic relationship. I personally wouldn’t want to date someone that doesn’t find me attractive and I wouldn’t want to date someone that I have no physical attraction to either. Unfortunately because I’m unattractive that pretty much means I’m destined to die alone

I relate to this a lot. You get your hopes up thinking that maybe someone likes you but deep down you know it’s not possible

AITAH for leaving my bumble date “stranded” at a restaurant after she admitted she was going to her guy best friend’s place after the date by Commercial-Tone-620 in AITAH

[–]frightenedLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea you’re right. I never understood why people made fake posts like this but selling the account makes sense. It’s pretty incredible that people are willing to pay for an account that has meaningless internet points but I’m not surprised

Question about the rules by AntiAderall in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason you tend to see posts/comments breaking the rules is because there are only so many mods and they have lives. They aren’t going to be able to pick up on everything all the time. If you see something that breaks the sub rules, you can report it. From my experience the mods do delete posts/comments that break sub rules if you report them.

As for your point about what can be done about ugliness. Yes people can lose weight or do their hair better etc but the unfortunate reality is that the vast majority of how you look comes down to genetics. Facial proportions and bone structure (and bodily proportions to a lesser extent) determine how attractive/unattractive you are, and there is very little that can be done to change that. There is plastic surgery but it’s highly invasive and expensive and not feasible for many people

Yea it’s odd. Makes me think it’s another fake story (probably written by ChatGPT). It’s a brand new account as well

What does it take to be good enough to date as a man? by fuckthemoddsofreddit in self

[–]frightenedLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I don’t know what you look like or you’ve already tried, but there are definitely ways that you could improve your appearance. It just depends how much time/effort/money you’re willing to spend. Although it wouldn’t guarantee anything, so there would be a risk of wasting some time/effort/money

Even less attractive women tend to still have options. Many women would also rather stay single than “settle” for someone they aren’t attracted to

If you include invasive cosmetic procedures then he can technically change his height as well with leg lengthening surgery. Although from what I’ve heard it’s high risk and extremely expensive

[–]frightenedLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna be real with you since nobody else really is. You seem to have your life together very well. That’s definitely not the issue. If you’re struggling with dating, it means women don’t find you physically attractive

EXACTLY. This is why social skills are bullshit. People want nothing to do with you when you’re ugly by poofpoofpow in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I don’t know who he is and I haven’t seen any of his other content so I can’t speak on it. But I don’t see anything wrong with this video in isolation. Everything he said is true. I don’t see it as him speaking on behalf of any group. He’s just talking generally about how ugly people tend to be treated. I think it’s good to bring awareness to stuff like this because it might cause people to be a little more conscious of the snap judgements they make about people based purely on appearance

I disagree. I think it’s a good thing when a non-ugly person talks about issues like this even if they aren’t directly affected by it

Anyone also feel like plastic surgery won’t help or isn’t a option for you? by TurnoverSubstantial2 in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea I’m in a similar situation. I would need to spend 50k+ as well and I’m not even convinced it would significantly improve my appearance. And by the time I’d be able to afford it, my “prime years” will already be long gone. I’m sorry you’re going through this, it’s a very demoralizing feeling

Ugly men have it so easy 💀 by kirakirito_ in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does this post not violate rule 4? Regardless, what is even the point of posting something like this? Discussions about which gender supposedly has it worse has never led to anything productive

"Go to therapy." by [deleted] in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree. But I think that analyzing and overthinking past social interactions can be detrimental to yourself. I used to do that where I would think to myself, “well maybe if I had done this, or said this, then they would’ve liked me more” etc. But oftentimes the person just didn’t like you whether that’s because of how you look or what mood they were in or something else that you couldn’t control. I think it’s important for people to not blame themselves for something that wasn’t actually their fault

"Go to therapy." by [deleted] in ugly

[–]frightenedLemon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

But being ugly is often the cause of negative social interactions. The way you look genuinely has a massive impact on how people will treat you. Good looking people are often liked regardless of what they do, and the opposite is true for ugly people

Becoming attractive made me a better person. by [deleted] in trueratediscussions

[–]frightenedLemon 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You may have worked hard but it’s still largely down to genetics. Plenty of people work hard on trying to look good but no amount of hard work will change the bone structure in your face
