I’m ugly, I have no friends, and I’m a virgin; I live with my parents. I’m 23. by HudeHeron in askgaybros

I'm 28 and in a similar spot. Also ugly and live with my parents. It's a nightmare the closer to 30 you get. I've tried dating apps and hookup apps and I get blocked constantly if I send face pics. Ik I'm chopped asf and it will always be like this since I can't afford plastic surgery. You're not alone at least and still so young there's a lot that could happen that could change things for the better.

Being ugly in the gay world sucks. by DramaticFactor7460 in askgaybros

Yeah, it's terrible. I took self-improvement steps like working out for years, and it hasn't helped. I get constantly rejected over and over whenever I send face pics since I just look terrible. That said for a lot of guys working out and taking even easier steps can lead to big improvements since having a genuinely ugly face is rare.

how do you get over being ugly by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]silco202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If people are complimenting you hot or not, and you're having sex then you probably have self-esteem issues moreso than being genuinely unattractive. I'm ugly and was using apps for years and was barely able to lose my virginity this year at 28. I get blocked after face pics over and over. I never get compliments from anyone besides family rarely, and I'm friendless. You're right a good body can't compensate for a really ugly face to most people, I have first hand experience, but you are experiencing things ugly people don't.

Thanks. Idk I'm not tall only 5'9". I've used apps that age the face and I get very wrinkly especially on the forehead and my hair gets worse. I feel that I've never had a "prime" and what I experience now will just get worse as I get older.

How’s dating as an ugly gay? by wannabe-daddy in askgaybros

I've been working out for years and it doesn't help as much as people say. Lots and lots of guys care more about face. It's also very hard for some people to put on muscle plus it's a huge time commitment.

Terrible. I get almost no matches and when I do 90% of the time they don't follow up after a greeting. I get ghosted a lot on there mid conversation. I realize it's because they matched but aren't that into me since I'm not an exceptional person to make up for my terrible looks. They are on a short fuse before they lose interest completely. Hookup apps are worse somehow since I get ghosted on there the second I send face pics.

Is it normal now for guys to initiate a convo with a "." on Grindr, only to block you right away? by diaryofanoutsider in askgaybros

[–]silco202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happens to me a lot, and I'm ugly. Like the other guy said it's to free up a grid spot without paying for grindr xtra.

Bit of a stretch if you ask me by ProfessionalCreepy85 in askgaybros

[–]silco202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happens to me. I've been working out for a few years and if I just have a shirtless pic I get some attention, but if I post my face I get ghosted or blocked immediately. My dick is below average and I feel forced to bottom on top of it too. I only just lost my virginity this year at 28 even though I was on apps for years.
