Yet I was rejected by this girl I liked a few months ago when she said I look too old :?

You say that like it's a bad thing :lol:

It is a bad thing is there are very few Far East Asians in your society; hence limiting your options too much.

Actually there's quite a few of them here.

It looks like you have no chin and that your face goes right into your neck, which looks cartoonish. You should try taking the pic at a different angle and in a more interesting location.

True I have no chin and I can't afford the surgury to to correct that.

Which angle?

Beard may help with that too. Honestly it's the best thing I could have done. Not to mention that I hated shaving anyway. It really boosted my confidence, people no longer even really notice me (before I felt like everyone was looking at me), and when they do notice me now people are really respectful and nice to me. I feel a lot less judged and it is a lot easier to go out in public.

I could not believe what a difference growing a beard made for me. When I decided to grow it out for a few months I must have tripled my dating and had countless female coworkers comment on how attractive I looked.

I later met and eventually married a woman who doesn't like facial hair and keep it clean shaven.

I think you should do something with your eyebrows, they look like they are growing together and generally unkempt.
Of course don’t go overboard making them as thin as some woman do.
But giving them clear contours, tends to go a long way to improve ones looks.
Maybe look up some tips for men on how to best do it if you are unsure.

(Definitely cheaper than chin surgery :P )

Maybe a more upwards angle or sideways with your head pointed up slightly to make the chin protrude, but not too obvious. The current pic is at an unflattering angle for your faceshape. A beard would help too, just not a goatee though, those are lame.

Sometimes girls like to take their pics from extreme upwards angles to make their jaws smaller and eyes bigger. If their pics are like that I can guarantee they have a hidden manly jawline and smaller eyes than appears.

You prolly don't even need a full beard. You can grow enough stubble to make it look like a shadow which will give the appearance of more chin or bigger jaw.

Kind of like this

Try to grow some beard; it's trendy in our era.

I wish I can grow a beard. But I grow a neckbeard and a mustache that makes me look like a pedo.

you look fine and friendly/comfortable. i see nothing wrong in the picture. you also look your age.


don't mess with your looks, so you won't end up looking uncomfortable. not all girls like certain type of looks!


some women find muscles gross, some women like chubby or skinny dudes, some women love bald pple and so on. some hate beards some love glasses and so on..



btw
for instance, mainstream/media sht manipulates people into believing that all women are attracted to this actor in kraftiekortie's post:

believe me the truth is most women don't find him that attractive. actually many women don't even find him attractive at all. same thing applies to tom cruize,,etc














on a side honest note: in my opinion leonardo dicaprio is good/deserves the hype. it's an exception

You look pleasant and approachable.

I use the same picture on Facebook. Why do people on Facebook keep saying I look like a sloth?

Even people who don't know each other. They arrived at this conclusion independently.
