Do you consider yourself attractive?

How attractive do you think you are?
I used to have a rather negative self-image, but now I love checking myself out in the mirror. Women seem to be noticing me a lot more nowadays too. I'm not sure if that's because I look more attractive now, or because I have more self-confidence, but it's probably a combination of the two.

Considering yourself attractive gives you confidence but can also make you self-obsessed.
Then on the other hand, considering yourself ugly makes you under confident and equally self obsessed.
I'm usually the under confident type. I don't know what to think of myself - I should live selflessly but my robotic nature has programmed me to be either one way or the other.
It all boils down to sexual attraction - without that I'm sure it wouldn't matter either way.
How can we lose our stereotyping? How can we become non-self obsessed? This is what I would like to discuss here!

Maybe it's all the socks you have rolled up and stuffed in your chones. It's been working for me too.

Its hard to give an answer
some days I feel physically flawed some days I feel like I'm kinda cute most the time, I'm not sure about it...maybe its because there are hardly any mirrors in this place
