Get rid of the facial hair and lose some weight, you'd do fine.

Your looks/appearance are fine, and are not going to be holding you back.

You definately are lacking self confidence. I was there once (no dates, no luck with women, horrible self confidence, anxiety, etc). Please take the great advice of many people here and get some professional help/counseling. You are just "in the woods" right now of your own self doubt and need a helping hand to lead you out!

I'm an ugly undateable beast now, aren't I?
You look pretty much the same. Maybe this is just me, but I don't really know anyone who changes that much from 19 to 22. It might be because, if you went to college, once you graduate all the single women disappear somewhere. That's a well-known phenomenon that every male experiences (and every female, too). As one website put it, you used to be able to just walk down the street and everyone you ran into was a 20-something year old woman in good shape. After college, if you walk down a random street, almost everyone you pass is going to be some middle-aged or older man or woman.

It just seems like you keep victimizing yourself, moping around in self pity instead of actually going out there and trying to make yourself better, so you can actually get a girlfriend if that´s what you actually want.

No one needs to be a super model to be "date-able".

Get professional help!!

Quit obsessing over everything and thinking it's the reason you arent getting laid. I'd also greatly suggest getting in shape. It will do even more for you mentally than it will physically.

I would say the biggest hurdle for any guy stopping him from meeting women is his mind. Even with things like a job and looks, without the right mindset you habe nothing. And on the contrary, with an amazing mindset and a bad job and average looks youre probably better off.

And again..

When the rejection is your own fault there's no one to blame but yourself. Make changes and the rejection won't be as prevalent.

Your after picture is better. Your face looks friendlier. Is this a very recent picture? I remember one not too long ago where you had the mountain man neckbeard going on. That's gone, this is you? Heed the others. You are not a hideous beast!

That's pretty much what I was thinking. You're definitely not ugly, OP, but most of us have room for improvement.

Sorry, but you thought wrong, OP.

You're not bad looking, by the way. I have a friend that's a Freddy Krueger lookalike that's constantly hooking up with beautiful women. You have no excuse to get yours!

I don't think looks mean a thing in the world, but I do think your second picture looks nicer, when compared to the first.

You actually look like a good looking guy. I know you can't tell by a picture, but you look like a nice guy.

=)
