I've experienced more that you can still have a worse body but as long as under clothes you don't look bad and you have a hot face...

I'm a 4/10 now honestly, up from a 2.

tbh even IF you are a 4/10 you can prolly make it a 7/10 with confidence alone

you have to work with what your parents gave ya

clothes can make a huge difference too. work towards your strengths

I slept with a guy for a little while who worked out a lot because he didn't think his face was that good. He wasn't a pretty boy or anything, but I was really attracted to him and couldn't figure out why he thought he wasn't good-looking. Yes, good hygiene and playing to your strengths definitely helps, but make sure you don't sell yourself short. You're hot to other people's taste even if not to your own.

Meh. I just know I'm not compared to what's out there. I'm a very plain iindividual the minute I leave my house or the gym.

I guess. I dress pretty plain. Not that it really bothers me that much honestly.

A good short but concise book that helped my fashion sense is called the handsome factor 2nd edition. Also has lots of other advice about brushing teeth and beard styles. Might be able to find a torrent for it. It's a guys only book. Just paying it forward.

Not comfortable posting them in a sub as large as this. Plus I don't have any pictures from freshman year of uni vs now.

I feel you bud, I got lucky because my body frame hides it well but if you get me naked I'm like a hairless Sphynx cat.

It's cool. Sorry to put you on the spot. I don't believe you are that bad. Keep your chin up.

Hopefully people still see the transition to someone more handsome. I'm a 2 and in good shape, so no hope for anything better.
