I look diffrently in some mirrors...

Obviously before you go out you look in the mirror maybe sometimes too long. So when I go out to a bar or club-mall anywhere with mirrors, I sometimes look diffrently then I did at home.

Is this normal?
Does anyone else go through this?

    This is totally normal , it depends on the mirror you're looking at it (concave , convex in some parts...) . It's exactly the same idea of the Disney-land and these places when you look at the mirror in the maze you look funny ,tall , fat..etc

    you look different because the mirror are looking in muat have a different shape, size and lighting, all this will impact how you look

  • For one,lighting has a huge effect on how you look in a mirror. The tilt of the mirror does as well. If you take a big mirror down and lean it against the wall, it will make you look so thin!

    I used to really hate that. So then, I'd refuse to not only look in the mirrors that I like my appearence best in, but then I just saw the other mirrors as a chance to see what's wrong and improve in.

      I mean that I would only look in the mirrors that I thought I looked best in.

    Well, as a matter of fact, practically every mirror is different. There's not a perfect, standard, even-ess and plain-ess of glass, and then the reflecting base that makes the mirror will also be different in thickness, chemical structure, etc. So, most of mirrors, the cheaper the merrier, will have then elongations or compressions of the image reflected. Not too big as to distort it greatly, but enough to show, for a keen and observant looker, changes in what is seen. Sometimes, from mirror to mirror, you will see yourself more elongated and thin, some times chubbier and thicker, sometimes the eyes wider or separated, sometimes closer or smaller, and so on with the different factions.

    Ever look in the mirror and say, "I would like to suck him off!"
