You judge yourself by frozen frames. Everyone else sees you moving, laughing, mid-sentence.

You have never once seen yourself the way anybody else does. Your evidence is still images and mirrors, caught at an angle you chose, while everybody who knows you has a moving version: the way you walk in, the laugh, the face you make when you are explaining something. Those do not photograph, and they are most of what people actually like.

Stop treating a bad photo as data about you. If you want something closer to the truth, watch a video somebody else took, or just notice that nobody has ever described you as a frozen face. What you are to other people moves.
