That something is probably the remnants of insecurities caused by bullying and lack of ‘validation’, so to speak.

I’ve been working on myself in every aspect and I definitely am more confident, a completely different person in that regard, the “better version of myself”, but I still can’t get over this hurdle to take pictures of myself randomly.

I’m enjoying life a lot more. More hobbies, more appreciation for the little things, but I know I need to do the ‘leap of faith’ and just start posting. My last picture is of me when I was 14-15 (on social media).

I know I’m at least above average looks wise. I haven’t gotten many comments directly, but over the past few months I’ve been noticing more of those looks or even eye fucks from women to an extent when I do manage to catch a glimpse. One girl who is close friends with my friend told him she finds me attractive but wouldn’t want to be with me because she knows I’m a virgin, so it’s a bit of a double edged sword.

Any advice? Anyone used to be in the same situation as me?
