Can a moderator delete my two photos from this thread? Now that the discussion is over I don't want anyone looking at my ugly face and teeth anymore.

Sigh...
There is nothing seriously wrong with your face. Just make the photos from larger distance to avoid fish eye distortion and care for the setting.

Literally the first comment:

I will not sugarcoat, you do need to go to the dentist.

Have you ever thought to fix your teeth? Can you get insurance cover for it?


Followed by implications from the other men that I'm ugly, a comparison to a man born with extreme facial deformities from a tumor, and the only "positive" comments being I'm closer to average than ugly (which clearly implies I'm between average-ugly, hence a negative), and my teeth aren't that bad.

I'm not interested in an argument or people lying to make me feel better about myself. I'm thankful I can rely on Boo's honesty. Besides, I don't need pictures of me floating around. I thought deleting the source of those images would work, but it didn't. So moderators, please delete.

Deleting photos is okay but your face on them is deformed clearly due to wrong camera position - enormous lower jaw and mouth and tiny ear are typical fish eye deformations.

That's just the shape of my head. I keep trying to tell you folks that what you're seeing is my BEST angle.

I just don't believe it.
Do you have any professional made photograph like for passport or driving license?
Professional portrait photographs are made from at least 2-3 meters with big zoom to avoid the deformations I mentioned.

When I said you're closer to the average range, I meant that you're in the average range, not that you're in between average and ugly but inching towards average, but I guess you'll believe what you wish.

And I think Boo's a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to looks so the fact that he only pointed out one flaw is more encouraging than discouraging imo. If you were ugly all-round, I don't think Boo would have cited only one specific feature. Having a couple of physical imperfections doesn't mean no-one will ever find you attractive, but having had no relationship experience despite wanting it, I can completely understand why you feel the way you feel.

Based on the little information I know, I believe your problem is probably more along the lines of social anxiety and social skills than appearance, but if the photos you use on dating apps are similarly angled to the ones on here and are all selfies, that won't be doing you any favours.

I thought you looked handsome, but figured you wouldn’t want to hear what an old lady thought!

Lol! So far I haven't gotten sick of "swiping" on Tinder, mostly because even if I don't go out with/sleep with a guy, they make pretty funny efforts to get me laughing in convos! Lmao it doesn't get boring at all! :) :)
