Not as pretty as a picture

Is it normal to hate every single picture you take of yourself. I have so many pictures saved on my computer of myself (I am faaaar from vain) and everytime I want to upload just one from the list onto a social site I can't find any. I hate every single picture of me, there is ALWAYS a fault.

Is this normal???If not do I have a low self esteem or something??

    A picture is a two dimensional approximation of your look, and thus not really accurate. Now of course that can go both ways, the real three dimensional of yourself may be better or maybe worse.

    Its normal its something allot of people will see and pictures of yourself rarely if ever are good but profile good nu-uh.
    I get the feels.

    Maybe you are like me and are a total perfectionist that if you want to upload a picture the shot needs to be perfect.

    you are just not photogenic. plus nowadays with the high amount of megapixels you see all the imperfections and all.

    I think what you should do is find a side of your face that you prefer... For me, I prefer the right side of my face being closest to the camera. Maybe if you took more pictures that way, you would like them? Good luck!

    I hate all pictures of me because they last forever unless something happens to them.
