I'm not gonna lie, I forgot this board fucking existed, but something has been pissing me off for years now and you fuckers are the only ones who should know the answer and please for the love of fuck just give me a straight answer without meming.
Why. Why in the absolute FUCK am I incapable of taking a picture of myself or getting a picture took of me that is at all satisfying? I know what you're gonna say too, you're gonna say something along the lines of 'well you must just look like shit then'. I can go to a mirror at any time, even when I do look like shit after just waking up or something and I'll like how I look, because the fact is, in a mirror I absolutely DO like how I look. Love it even, to the point of it bordering being narcissistic. Yet in a picture, everythings wrong. Fucking everything. My skin looks sickly, my hair looks like shit, I look like a fucking goddamn skeleton. I just don't understand, the difference between a photo and the mirror is so vast that I genuinely can't bare to get a picture taken of me because I'm so used to the mirror me.
So give it to me straight, which me is more accurate? Am I just an ugly cunt and the pictures are right or is the mirror more accurate meaning I don't look too bad.
I'd like to believe that the mirror, something which is consistent, something which doesn't rely on focal length or the errors and imperfections that can come from taking pictures is right but I just don't know. I fucking WISH I could get one picture of myself that just looked like what I see when I look in a goddamn mirror. It's beyond frustrating.
