When Ppl Say Your Good Looking But You Don't Agree

[Chefcurrywts]

ive been told that i am good looking And handsome by guys and girls, but when I see myself in photos or in the mirror I don't know what they are talking about? I'm balding, I have a humongous head and feel like my facial features are average.

Do ppl just say guys are good looking if they have sh*t self esteem to make them feel better?

If people say you are good looking, you should believe them most of the times. Counter proof: some of us have had that and then no longer and then you understand they meant it WHEN they said that

The fact that you are balding may not affect your looks so strongly in an initial baldness stage: most people don't even notice when you are a NW2 or 3.
When I was 25 I do remember some girls saying "I see you have thinned. You look good as well".
NW4+ is another animal.
PS: of course this is valid if you are not talking about social media. On social media, everyone is a Greek god/goddess looking man/woman apparently.

I'm at a Norwood 6 with my hairline intact. It's just weird that I would get compliment but i have such sh*t self esteem that I can't think of myself in a positive way.

If your hairline is intact, are you sure you are a Norwood 6?
NW6 is basically no hair except the horseshoe.
Anyways, I do understand you lost your self esteem.
BUT, if someone compliments you and you like them, it is really worth in my opinion to be completely oblivious to one's esteem and try to act on that hunch...
