my presentation:how can i improve

[KaptainKrunk]

I ask because i've always wondered if its my height or my sheer looks which have worked against me, but heres a picture of me

[KaptainKrunk]

i post because altho i have been learning the game for a year and a half now, and am getting places with it, i am curious to know what I can do to be better looking, as I am really short and I believe that hurts me big time at first glance when I'm at a party with a lot of other taller guys.

maybe whats workin against you is niether your looks or height. maybe its doing dumb stuff like posting a picture of yourself on a forum for guys who like girls, and arent looking for other guys.

or maybe you have just been barking up the wrong tree your whole life? try match.com maybe?

ps. if you want my honest opinion, despite the fact that i think this thread is weak sauce, try some teeth whitening strips

Its easy to say what you should try, but you ultimately have to be comfortable with who you are. You obviously think you look like a square, so I would recommend changing one thing about yourself a day.

It could be something not so obvious as switching to briefs instead of boxers, to something more obvious as hair style.

You need to look at things around you and change to what you like.

As far as what others say, teeth whitening, new hairstyle, shirts that arent from college from what I can tell. Take it from the cardigan sweater man, you just have to do it.

I recieved some really good advice from someone once, they said, "Throw out everything that doesnt fit the style and picture of yourself that you want to be, and then buy the stuff that is. That way you dont revert back to your old "safe" style."

Well they didnt say exactly that but thats what I got from it.

I think that it is great that you are actively seeking feedback.

First, I would follow the suggestion and post on hot or not to get a female opinion.

Second, the advice on the teeth whitening is good. I had to do that myself in the past from drinking too much soda.

Also, I think you are a decent, average looking guy. Which means to say there is nothing wrong with your looks but you don't stand out. I would focus on updating my look to so that you stand out more.

Get some of your girl friends to help you go shopping and to suggest a hair style. Or open up girls at the mall to get their opinion on different clothes.

Finally, you mention your height a couple of times. You are obviously self conscience about it which WILL affect how you interact with women. You need to learn to get over this issue - either through hypnosis, meditation or just getting more confidence in general with women.

i've posted it on hot or not. But i ask from other PUA's perspective because how we present ourselves affects the quantity and quality of women we mack. I am merely seeking advice if there is a better way to present myself. So far tho the hints have been helpful, tooth whitening is definite, tho i've been struggling for a while with hairstyle. it was my friend, however who told me to come on this website and post a pic and get an idea of what I should do, because my girl friends aren't gonna be honest, as theyre afraid of sounding mean, ive asked before, thats why its on hot or not, so they can say it without my being scared theyre gonna hurt me to my face and thus they can give an honest opinion

Dude, I think you look fine. Mainly because one of the things I keep hearing from Mystery, Style and other PUAs is that looks don't matter. And to a large extent they don't. Women are not as visual as men are. (Although I still don't believe that women are completely non-visual). But my point is, you look fine. If you're getting places with your game and haven't changed your looks, thats should tell you something...

Also, for the most part, we are not competing against Brad Fucking Pitt here. We are usually competing against average looking schmucks. And most men are just fucking ugly. Actually, most of the guys I've seen with gorgeuos women are really fucking ugly and just as often fat.

That said...
There is nothing wrong either with working on yourself. The first thing I would do is clean out your closet. I recently went through my clothes and discovered that I have 7 different sizes of jeans, from as small in the waist as 34 to as large as 44. What I decided for the fit is this; if I could not wear them without a belt, without them falling or if they hurt because they were too tight, they went into the "Goodwill pile" and will be gotten rid of as soon as I can drive them over to the drop off.

The most amazing thing happened when I put on some jeans that fit. First it looked like I'd lost ten pounds. Second, I actually have an ass. I didn't fucking know it. Never fucking knew it was there behind me this whole time. It is truely astonishing.

So yeah, update your clothes, fuck with your hairstyle (I went blond for a few months, that was fun) , start working out... But make yourself who you want to be, not who you think THEY want you to be.

I don't believe that men are more visual, but I do think that men are more DIRECTLY visual. Men see tits and ass, while women see the big picture. A woman will look a guy up and down and instantly know if he is confident, successful, fun, humorous, etc. They see the cut of your jeans, the style of your hair, the color of your teeth, how clean your shoes are, whether your socks match, how neat your hair is, how clean shaven you are, in addition to your body language, voice, smile, etc.

So looks don't matter, but they also matter to a great extent. That is, you don't have to have the face and body of Brad Pitt, but you do have to dress and act like you're somebody.

To the OP, you look like a good guy who fits in. You don't stand out. To add to the great advice in this thread, I would get some cooler clothes and do something with your hair.
