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 😢

Imma gonna stop you right there.

My bestest friend in Australia was born with a severe cleft pallet. He has has multiple surgeries to fix it. He talks slightly weird because of it. He is a huge, hulking monster of a man. If you met him in a dark alley, you'd be certain you were dead for just existing in the same space.

I love love my bestest friend. If he and I lived closer together, we'd be a happy couple. He knows parts of me that no one else knows and i love him to the end of the earth.

So if women aren't finding you attractive, they aren't women worth being with. Period.

Also, just a fun fact, I know what I know about Warhammer because my bestest friend is a fan and has told me all the lore.
