/fa/ - Fashion

i (and i know if you are following the thread actively, this has been said a countless number of times) don't consider myself to be anything over a 7, but i do get stopped and complimented on my appearance by people on occasion, and that has come with a mixed bag of feelings that im sure those more attractive might also share

The issue is that if you start getting compliments, it only makes you start focusing on your appearance and nitpicking it even more, making it feel like any extended period of time where someone hasn't complimented you feel like you are actively fucking up and you look like shit, even if expecting compliments all the time to be entirely unreasonable. If i was incredibly attractive, i probably wouldn't even want people complimenting me because it brings more harm than good when you start expecting it rather than letting it be a pleasant surprise.

It's hard to tread this territory without just being a fucking narccie but you know how it is
