    How do I look?

    A friend of mine asked another girl (while drunk) who she thought was the least attractive of our group and I was her second choice. I've never thought that I'm handsome or anything, I knew I would be one of her first choices when he asked her the question. But I'm quite curious of what other people (strangers/non-Swedes) think?

    Ps. I just came out of the shower when I took this picture, so my hair was not completely done yet.

    You look like a nice young man. Are you wanting to use that pic for online, tho? Generally, face-on shots are seen as too aggressive. Go for a sideways shot w/head tilted slightly. Friendly smile.
    Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.

    Eehhh, you're reasonably cute. I think you should look into getting glasses that are the right shape of your face, though.

    A more important question, though: is this the kind of thing guys generally do to each other? "Dude, you're ugly." Really? That just seems kind of... ****ed up to me.

    I bought two pair of glasses just a month ago. Everyone thought those glasses were a perfect fit for me...

    Normal guys probably don't do that, but our group is sort of special. We've known eachother since childhood and become used to being brutally honest with eachother. It works both ways, we can insult eachother without taking much offense, but we can also talk about emotional stuff (relationships, family, illness, etc) without any akwardness. Hell, we're practically family.

    Oh really? Then why did you ask?

    'normal guys', 'without taking much offense', 'I knew I would be one of her first choices'.

    Sounds all very healthy and like a good boost for your self esteem.

    Whom are you trying to fool?

    Obviously this is bugging you, otherwise you wouldn't have posted here.

    You look alright. The most important feature in a guy is personality so I will recommend that you be concern with that more.

    I agree on losing the glasses-- or getting a better pair. I think a shorter hair cut might be more flattering to your face as well. Other than that, I'd agree that you're about average in looks. Although personality is always more important to women so in the end it doesn't really matter how you look.
