For real, most of the pictures I have of my girlfriend are gorgeous, but she thinks they're hideous. I wish I could accurately convey to her how beautiful I think she is.
Seeing people's perfectly curated family albums is always weird to me. Like, you're not going to capture all the weird, funny, ugly, gross, and human moments either? What's the point then? Lol.
There's a psychological reason for that. You're used to seeing yourself in the mirror, so a photo of yourself looks subtly wrong. Reverse a photo of yourself and you immediately look better, but only to you. It's wrong to everyone else that way.
Yup! Been telling people this for years. Similarly, you hate your own voice in recordings because you're used to how there are bassy undertones that bounce in your head and get added on top of your voice. You can amplify your hearing of the bassier/muffled voice by just covering your ears and speaking.
Which means the trick for making your voice sound better in recordings is to just give it a touch of low end.
That's definitely part of it! Additionally though, how we feel about someone or something has a significant affect on how we perceive it. Imperfections we may focus on with ourselves (everyone's their own worst critic) or strangers will be lessened or completely overlooked when viewing things we care for.

Seriously, my wife's biggest critic is my wife.
And anybody who bad talks my wife is getting a spanking
Wait. Oh, nice.
When my wife starts criticizing herself I say "Stop! I don't let anyone talk about my wife that way"
Mine as well. You look amazing stop saying that you don't. Do it so often it is starting to make me feel bad.
Pfft. Gay.
Wasn't it Athens?
Cur non utrumque?
γιατί όχι και τα δύο?
Nothing gayer than loving a woman amirite fellas?
Well, seems like he wants to be with you, not with your Instagram profile

And the boyfriend sees the pics on the bottom like the girlfriend sees the pics on the top.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
My fave photo of my SO is one she doesn’t like. It brings me so much joy and happiness when I see it.
Ah Wabi-sabi in action, love it.
If he’s anything like me, vice versa too
Mirrors shatter into powder under my awful gaze
He only takes pictures of you at your most beautiful
I need this, but gay

Too late, already sent this to my bf
Easy, just ignore the genders in the image and think about what feeling it represents
My wife would absolutely agree.
She has a boyfriend?
(SORRY, my old reddit instincts were kicking in!)
You want some idealized version of him that doesn't exsist in motion and conjured up by tricks and self deception.
He wants you exactly as you are, flaws and all.
Or he isn't as good as a photographer as her.
He's capture a real moment, not something staged or manipulated to appear better than it is.
Lots of photography is making something look better then it is. Lol
This is why those tiny Coke and Pepsi cans are so popular, since they make other things look huge in comparison.
I miss arethestraightsokay on reddit. Loved watching those aromantic antisocials get offended at other people's happiness.
I'm lost, how is this even remotely relevant?
Because they would have had a field day with this.
How so exactly? What exactly here would they be amused by? How do you anticipate they would react? Genuinely lost.
Did you used to post and comment on there?
I didn't even know it was a subreddit until reading that post, despite having previously been a disgracefully active redditor for more than a decade.
Uh, are the bottom poses related to that one cursed
JapaneseKorean comic? (Horror cursed, non necessarily nsfl cursed)Edit: Got which nationality the comic is from wrong
Also here's the comic I'm talking about

Reminds me of My Giant Nerd Boyfriend webcomic.
