Right, which is why you don't send out a photo if you don't know the person.

You are going to need to get out of this rut somehow, if you really want to. But I'm starting to doubt that you actually want to because you seem quite comfy there.

NOpe. I've looked through 100s. I muttered to myself: "no...no...no..oh hell no...looks like an ass...whats he scared of?...ok, this one."

Ask a female friend or relative who likes you to pick which pic looks best of you. You'll probably be surprised.

And we can each tell him something different, I see, and yet both be wrong at they same time.
Hard to give a guy advice when he has all of the indisputable answers.

I don't understand the logic behind, "I'm hideous! And my personality sucks too! I can't get a woman to save my life! I think I'll hang around a forum about relationships for fun!"

I do agree with whoever said it is a modern-day form of self-flagellation.

You're right I shouldn't have sent it but I guess part of me was hoping she'd like the picture and that I was wrong about my looks and that women would find me attractive..

And pics isn't how I'm gonna succeed but getting to know women and show my personality hasn't gotten me anywhere but the friend zone either.
Well heck, for all you know the friend's friend doesnt appreciate her friend soliciting pictures unasked. Dont take it so personal.

I thought that's what you were implying here:

Because ... if your face is as bad as you have claimed it is about a hundred thousand times here, then photos are NOT going to make someone attracted to you.

Being photogenic is a very specific thing. I've seen people who are attractive in real life but don't look that good in photos.

It's not the kind of move you need to be making.

Honestly, I think this ex of a friend who fell asleep on you recently is your best bet, but you need to convert her because she is VERY close to putting you in "friend only" territory right now.

I will add my thoughts to that thread.
