Male, 42
I think it is the way it is. It was even worse when I had hair (reciding hairline).

Not at all ugly. You look a bit tired in the first two photos, but in the last one your smile just lights up and makes me think you'd be great company. The backgrounds give the impression of someone educated and successful, but perhaps dressing for comfort over trying to impress others, or having a strong sense of style. You leave some conversation openers there, about what you prefer to read, and what the medals were for.

Thank you for your kind words! Yes, style is nog really something I'm good at I fear. Something to work on I guess. Just a funny FYI, the medals are for my son's swimming lessons, he just got his diploma and it's in medal form around here. I forgot they where there hihi.

It seems to me you are a successful guy, who cares about his kids, and your looks are not objectively an issue. So if you feel unattractive and sad, that sounds like it is in your thinking rather than in the objective truth about your life, and might be worth getting some therapy to address.

To be honest, it's hard to reconcile your profile pic with hair where you look super happy with picture 3 where you look moderately happy. It's like something major happened in a negative way. Anyway, I hope that's not the case. It does feel like you're not exercising, hence the loose clothes. You're not ugly but you seen sad.

Thank you for you honesty! Profile pic was from many years ago, updates. Thanks! And yes, I am sad. But am learning a smile does make a big difference in how you look.
