Do you dislike photos of yourself?

[Carymeaway]

This Avatar one of me is similar to most of them, it is a couple years old because my eyes are always more shut, my mouth is usually open.It ALWAYS takes at least five takes before DMV can get a good one. I love my self in the mirror but never see the same person in photos.

 

[MarciKS]

I don't like myself in photos either. LOL

 

[Ruthanne]

Some of my photos I like and some I don't.

I think it's probably about 50/50 for photos I like as opposed to photos I dislike. However there are only a handful of pictures of me that I really love. I think in some of the pictures I like it's the setting or event that makes me like it as opposed to the way I look.

I'm fat. I'm old. Not much there to look at. LOL

You wrote your post and mine all together, Carymeaway!

LOATHE photos of me!

Same here.

When people try to include me in a group photo, I always decline, then they badger me to being in it, I do it to be a good sport, then they never post it. LOL Self sabotage maybe.

Well, that is a very cute one.

Well, that is a very cute one.

Only because it's not me!

I loved it, because I smoke, and I love hats, so it's totally me, but just not the REAL me.

 

[Aunt Marg]

By the way, Carymeaway, I just so happen to love your picture!

But that's always been me, I love everyone else's photos other than my own.

I bet you are still beautiful!You can still have some nice features when a certain age or weight.

That is very funny. I like your humor.

Usually when the lights are dim we look much better. Personality goes a long long way though

It's awesome to communicate with folks with similar experiences.

Welcome @Carymeaway .... your picture (avatar) looks fine to me.

But to answer your question ... No, I do not like myself in pictures. Although my DL looks okay. ..

That's why I love it here so much!

Interacting with folks in and around the same age not only makes chat easy, there's just so much everyone has in common with each other, having lived the same times, so topics and conversation is never boring.

Why is it that I look at myself in the mirror and think, "Hmmmmmm, not bad at all!" but if I take a selfie, I want to go crawl back in bed? Maybe I should take a picture of myself in the mirror......LOL. If only it worked that way!
