I'm chubby, and even when I get enough sleep I have dark circles under my eyes (something that runs in my family). I also have an awkward smile, it's not fake or anything but it looks like I'm passing gas whenever I smile.

I've tried OLD in the past and it obliterated my self confidence lmao. I know I'm funny, I know I'm witty and I know way more dumb trivia than is probably normal. I'm not bad looking in the mirror, sometimes I even think I look handsome, but in photographs I look like the fucking Dead Hand from OOT lmao.

The thing that prompted this post was my buddy talking about how he had 3 different girls he was chatting with off of Tinder, and he's definitely handsome. Like, the guy is Hispanic George Clooney.

I get maybe one like every 3 months which never ends up as a match. I think I have a strong bio listing my hobbies and interests as well as what I'm looking for. But I can't help but think it's my looks holding me back, which makes me feel like shit again. Admittedly, I do have a big filter on my bio for what I'm looking for (kink positive) but it shouldn't be THAT big a filter right?
