How do i deal with this feeling of confidence,have someone been throught this same feeling? How did she or him deal with it?I need help out here Note: i feel i have a slightly bigger head that doesn't show in the pictureThough i have a huge built muscle too, but im nervous about this appearance thing...... Thanks

Honestly, I would stop worrying about how other people see you in photos and in real life and just remember that if they are interested in you, they will love you for who you are no matter what. You can never look fabulous 100% of the time but you CAN adopt a positive attitude. If you lack the confidence the you will be less attractive no matter how physically handsome you might or might not be!

I have the opposite problem as you. I'm attractive in person, but look HORRIBLE in photos. If someone online were to not talk to me based on a bad photo, I'd say they probably aren't worth my time, anyway. This girl isn't likely to notice your "big head", and if she does and judges you for it, then it's her loss. For every woman who isn't attracted to you, there will be one who is. Also, you haven't seen her either. So what if she doesn't look how you expect? It can work both ways.
