I get the impression I'm ugly

I've seen how women look at me, and if they don't already know me, it's a look of revulsion. My own mother calls me standing up straight "threatening." I don't think cutting women out of my life is an answer, but then there doesn't seem to be a good answer. I do wonder if I'd get these reactions if I was actually good-looking, though. Women who I do know who I've asked about this just tell me there's nothing wrong with me, but I can hear their voice change when they think they're telling me what they think I want to hear - it's like it breaks or wavers a little, and goes slightly higher like 'customer service voice' which just tells me there is something wrong with me that they just won't tell me about.

I am aware that I'm both severely overthinking this and spiraling into catastrophising. I just want someone to love me 😢

Women will never tell the truth when addressing your looks with words. Their actions will be much more honest and if you see no interest in the things they do or don’t do for you, then that will be your answer. That being said…

A handsome man with a good personality may not ever have a real relationship.

A handsome man with a bad personality will never have a real relationship.

An ugly man with a good personality will only have real relationships.

An ugly man with bad personality may not ever know a relationship, especially not a real one.

@Reject are you saying I'm ugly and have a bad personality

@KiwiDan I don’t know you well enough to say something like that. The point was that looks aren’t going to help with getting a real relationship.
