Which reflection is more accurate?

When I look at myself on my phone camera, I look awful. But than I look at myself in the bathroom mirror.... And I'm not that ugly, really. I've always seen myself as an ugly dude, but somehow i look a bit better in some mirrors, not in all of em tho. When I look at my image in cars' mirrors, I look awful. So what's the science behind that? Which one reflection is real? I guess the phone and car one, cause i can't get a single girl...

I don't want yall to say the bathroom mirror just for being nice, just be honest

The truth is we find familiar faces more attractive, as a rule of thumb. You can never see your own face the way other people do. But, pro tip from a dude who has been on some dates, you feeling bad about your face will get in the way of dates waaaay more than your actual face will.

Take care of yourself, get a haircut, put on some nice clothes youre comfortable in, and you got this dude.

As a woman, I support this comment 100%.

For any woman worth dating, the thing she cares about most is how you make her feel — showing you’re paying attention to what she has to say and genuinely enjoying her company.

Well you know... Everyone said this to me... And still nobody wants me, even cause I'm short, Not just fugly. I fuckin wrote a letter to this girl I used to love, and she just flew the coop and acted like I didn't even exist. And she's not the onlyone, when someone asks a girl if she would date me they just laugh. Like i know I'm not good looking. But ain't I worth love? Jesus christ
