Ever Made yohurself Unattractive?

Post Reply New Topic

Yep, exactly. I've been there. For years.
I'm a little better these days....
Well, I work somewhere that requires a half-way decent appearance,
so I really don't have much of a choice.
Left to my own, I'd probably look like a hobo most of the time.

I try to keep myself in good nick.

I've tried making myself look unattractive. It only worked somewhat.


I would wear baggy sweatpants, men's t-shirt, ugly coat, ugly hat, scarf wrapped around my face, big ugly sunglasses, no makeup, messy hair, big headphones blaring obscure music, unfolded newspaper in front of my face, so I could pretend to read it, dirty shoes, ugly bag, maybe even a little bit of stinkiness.

Guys would still come up to me and ask me for my number. Ugh...
Eventually, I learned to ignore their presence. That made them upset, and they would stomp away rambling, "What is wrong with that girl?!"

Yes, I have consiered this, b ut never did it. It's not so much that I want to look unattractive, more that I feel as though I am betraying something if I take active steps to make myself attractive.



HAHA....No, it's not like that. I am much older. Not in high school anymore. It's more of an effort to NOT do anything to make myself attractive. It is more of a feeling of betrayal.

Though at one point, I was totally unawares that my ways were odd. Sweat pants to church was because Iwanted to go to church to worship God, but I was on that Autistic Continuum, where your brain is one that same wavelength for weeks.....it's very soothing. And I was in sweats so that is how I went.

I know it is weird. That is why I feel normal here.

I don't care about my appearance at all, for some reason my mum thinks this is a huge horrible thing

I don't have to work hard to make myself look unattractive. It is nothing I would ever have to deliberately pursue...even if I were to go through the effort of making myself look attractive, I would just look normal and not warrant any more attention than I do otherwise.
