I Hate How I Look In Pictures

I Don'T

Written on February 17th, 2013
I don't know what to say other than I hate that I'm not photogenic. It takes dozens or even hundreds of pictures to get a single good picture of me. I am an expert at ducking out of photos. I can imagine I'm not alone in this.

    If your avatar is you, then you can definitely be photographed.

    A good photographer will get you to relax. The photo with your husband in the age difference is good. It shows you can be photographed.

    I'm the same way - I'll do almost anything to avoid pics. Any time there's a group shot, I try to hide in the back (which doesn't really work because I'm very tall). When I look at the pic later, I'm like "Who's that dorky-looking guy in the back? Oh yeah, that's me".

    I tell myself I'm just not photogenic - that seems better than the alternative, which is that I really look that bad all the time!

    I could only find a couple of decent pics to post on POF and OKC... everyone else seems to like them but I don't - I just hate them less than most other pics of me. It occurred to me the other day that I was drunk in both of my profile pics.... that probably ought to be telling me something, but I'm not sure what: Relax more? Drink more? Let people take more pics? I just don't know.
