[Closed] Do you think you’re attractive? (Serious thread)

vickypea - Member
Hmm,I look fairly young for my age (49) but I feel I’m looking a bit battered round the edges. My best point is good thighs from 40-odd years of cycling and other exercise though that’s given me broad shoulders and huge hands too!

"Pathetic effort to hog the brownie."

Me: nearly 50. Once a 6/7, now a 5 on a good day. Not a lot of hair left. Grey beard. Lined face, going wonkily to the left. Mrs CdB is still a 7 though...

maxtorque looks like a cheery sontaran 🙂

That's bollocks BTW. My wife is 53 and I still fancy her as much as I ever did. I don't mean I love her (I do) but I actually [i]fancy[/i] her too.

I like to think I'm improving with age. Personally I find depending how lean I am really affects face shape. Too lean and I go gaunt, too many chips and I get an extra chin.

Current state of chins shown below...

Don't particularly like my body these days, but that's because I'm focused on cycling where as I was into bodybuilding all through my 20s.

Women tell me I'm ugly, but only until they find out how much I earn.

Then they call me poor and ugly.

What’s hogging the brownie?

yes, rubbish, having spent a fair bit of time trawling the dating sites there's plenty of good looking ladies to around 50, then things might take a slide depending on how many kids they have, how much time in the sun, and how fit they keep themselves 🙂

But seriously I think it is a state of mind - how you carry yourself, how young you act, etc.

My fantastic neighbour is 70 and you wouldn't think it - she's always out seeing friends and family, just went to Nashville and New Orleans for a holiday, line dances during the week, drives like a teenager (that stole the car...).

She is slim though - I think that helps a lot with perception as you subconciously expect people to get fatter with age, and mobility is better as well.

I'm 54 in February 🙁

Sorry, that wasn't as obvious as I thought it was. Family joke that means you're gorgeous. Apparently it comes from the rom-com 'Notting Hill'. Also apologies for remembering that you're gorgeous, that was a bit stalkery now that I think about it- IGMC-

Anyway! <blushes>

codybrennan, I guess you saw a photo of me once on here. When you reach 49 and feel a bit lined and scruffy, with short legs, compliments are as rare as hens’ teeth so I’ll say thanks 😀

Chilled76 is Action Man and I claim my £5.

Something that'll get you kicked out of the Scouts.

Please say it is not one of those naked calendars

It'll be very tasteful.

I'm not, even with the lights off...but it isn't something I bother about.

That coat was my brothers, but I'll take that as a compliment anyway:-) I was borrowing it when visiting (photoshoped him out of the selfie as I'm sure he'll appreciate me not posting photos of him on websites).

No idea what the £5 thing is about?

no experience of dating as an adult.

Dating as an adult is waaaay easier. Go and have a fun night out, if something happens then it's a bonus! 🙂

My kind "friends" keep comparing me to Brian Cox and a lego man. 😆

Someone also asked me the other day if I was Francis Cade............

Where to start?
Yes, I use shop windows for a quick check and adjustment, if necessary.
Much missed ex partner said both George Clooney & Pierce Brosnan took after me in the body & looks departments.
Thanks Gill but I think your NHS specs were responsible.
Having said that, deep down.......

Oh god, I’ve just been woken up by a nightmare about Perchypanther’s tongue.

I’ve never been a “wow” but reckon I scrub up ok.

This! ^^
Thought I was doing ok but tarka the rotter and chilled 76 are far more attractive than me. 😉

I hear that a lot.

I usually increase the dose.

How did you find a calendar with Chilled already in it?

Also, I'm now wondering if he has an "eagle eyes" lever on the back of his head.

Thanks Bunnyhop (though worried where!) but you are wrong, about me and I’m sure about yourself too

Is this a different version of Grindr?

Check out the next edition of STW, good looking enough to be the on the cover of the calendar!

Form an orderly queue ladies

I have a face like a slapped arse.

Is this a different version of Grindr?

If it is, it is not a very good one.

Definitely not a looker here...

However I do seem to get chatted to a lot in Asda by the ladies.

Mainly to get something off a high shelf though unfortunately.

I've found I'm a slow burner with women,I need time to grow on them, like a fungus.

Glad that most of you still love and fancy your female partners after the age of 50.
I'm lucky that nbt still fancies me. Because even if my face is a 3, my figure is fine for my age.

houns - seen a photo of you on here not that long ago.

There’s actually a couple of me on here from another thread but I’m not linking to it 😯

I am not sure I could rate myself, I seem to get a positive response from people in that way. Weirdly despite being 45 and having been through a bit of a traumatic time medically over the last year - i seem to have come out of it 'looking' better. A change to LCHF diet has helped my health and also seen me at my lowest weight for some years.

Unfortunately because of all the fun neurological issues i still suffer with I feel probably my least attractive - perception of self is a very odd thing

No

I'm dog-ugly and just catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror pisses me off.

I rate myself a 10 cause idgaf what others think and i have to live with myself.They may rate me a 2 though.

I'm about 1000% more attractive now than I was when I was single. My wife is a very shrewd shopper.

Anyway....Ive got a better idea, people should post their pic amd posters can then mark them out of ten!

I'd go first, but I haven't mastered this 'only using photo web sites nonsense'! 🙂

My wifes friends told her I was a FAF (Fit as ****)

My wife is gorgeous, funny and raving mad at the same time, god knows why she has been with me for 25 years because you couldn't punch clay uglier than me.

You decide! Answer wisely, I know where you live...

JFW. To this whole thread.

My own opinion of me? On a good day I might rate myself an 8. On a bad day about a 2. In reality I've no idea, but looking at photos of me 20 odd years ago I was probably reasonably attractive - if only I hadn't always spoiled it with a complete lack of confidence.

I'd have to say no. Too tall, too skinny and too dorky-looking. I look like Tintin with glasses. On a good day with a fitted suit and the right amount of facial hair for the judge, I'd maybe get 5 and a half. Most days I'd be lucky to get a 4.

But I have pulled a truly gorgeous 'everyday 8, 9-and-a-bit when trying' late-40s hotty so can only imagine she likes my, err, big feet.

The equivalent of a MILF, I'm led to believe by the school run mums, is a FILF.

Quite like that!

I think I'm getting better looking with age..... but then my eye sight is starting to fail a little.

I suppose that scans a little better than DILF.

MAMILF innit?

I'm too sexy for single posts it seems.

[b]Surf-Mat[/b] to the forum please, it's been a while but this is your thread!!!!

My eyes still remember this thread (not in a good way)

[quote=Kryton57 ]Crikey - I have a close resemblance to BoardinBob - with more hair.

Err. I'm not bald 😆 Not even in the slightest. THink more Jack Nicholson hairline though

I'm one of those lucky people who's happy in their own skin, and that combined with a bit of an inflated ego means I rate myself at least an 8 😉

Kind of like a super model, but times ten... 😉

Yes, but its a curse.
Ladies may also think if you're easy on the eye you must also be good in bed,good company and an attentive partner.

That may not be true! .

Im like the opposite of that, they expect very little of me so its usually a nice surprise...

they expect very little of me

Just the tip?

Im not saying im some kind of love god 😉 Just makes it easier to impress when they arent expecting much.

I imagine all these self confessed 9/10`s have a lot to live up to

I'm a handsome devil and an attentive lover to boot.

All aboard!

So if I do make the STW calendar, can I be like, September or something..??

DrP!!

Why is there nothing in that room other than a stripper pole and a wall sized mirror?

I presume the pockets in the waistcoat are for the customers in the pole dancing club to push tenners into?

Why do you look so surprised Dr P? Nice suit. I always envisioned you as an old fella. All GP’s are old in my head. Colour me surprised 🙂

[img] [/img]

Sorry to burst your bubble Dr.P..but the 3 ladies currently sitting in my living room ( due to current road conditions ) ..just didn't rate you at all 😆

Oh, I have a far more appropriate DrP photo for that there calendar...

I'd just like to pop in and state that since I originally posted I've grown my winter beard, so my scores gone up by 0.5.

Risky biz posting up a mugshot innit! However.. This is an interesting thread..so what the hey!!

So far it seems I'm scoring -3... hmm..!!

You can diagnose me doctor 😆

Seriously, there’s this pain in my eye

All the gps in my surgery are young whippersnappers now bar one, my favourite slightly overweight late miiddleaged male doctor but he’s leaving soon too.

I hope nothing goes wrong with arse or penis as I will probably die as I will be too embarrassed to show it to a young’en as I always feel they are judging me. 😀

Is it the 5" placard they hold up after you drop your panties that make you think that??!

This sentence has been dramatically altered merely by the omission of a single set of quotation marks.

Chip...Just pray that you never need a " physical " for bowel cancer ..it ain't pleasant!

Dr.P..
If you are up for some constructive criticism..they felt that the swept back hair along with the beard made your face too long .. 😕
Personally ..Ive no room to criticise so you are ok with me 😆

Long face..goddit...!!

The beard is actually just a 0.5 length stubble...Under it is something like this..

I've always had a face like a bag of smashed crabs but I'm comfortable with that.

Jamie - very good!!

Not really. I was intending to photoshop your head onto a hunk's body, but had to stop due to getting too aroused for a Friday morning.
