To ask you to honestly tell me what you think

[Hohum41]

I've attached a collage of my nose. Different angles. I've tried to crop and colour out who I am

I'm 34 and met a man several months ago just briefly once. We swapped numbers and have been talking quite alot. We would like to meet when we can. As silly as this sounds I'm so worried he will see my pointy thin nose as horrible.

It looks different at different angles and depends on light etc. But if someone takes a side profile of me it's really not flattering. It always looks absolutely huge and like it would walk into a room 5 seconds before me lol.i. Very insecure about. It's got s high bridge. It's thin. It has a line down the tip and it curves when I smile.

I just want your opinions the Best you can please. Picture attached.

I've hated it my whole adult life.

Your nose honestly looks perfectly normal and absolutely fine. The number of angles you’ve posted suggests that you’re fixated on your nose (to a fairly unhealthy level) and won’t believe me when I tell you it’s fine.

It's a perfectly fine nose OP, absolutely nothing wrong with it

Nice and straight and strong

Honestly, you have a lovely shaped face and your nose is beautiful imo.

Just looks like an average nose to me OP. Wouldn’t look twice at it.

It looks perfectly normal to me, but who nose what he will think.

You have a totally normal nose. So something else is going on here.

Do you know what’s causing your feelings, and do you get fixated on other things too?

It looks like my nose OP!

If you've met this person in the flesh though, he will have seen your nose. And he wanted to meet you.

Everyone has body parts that aren't the 'ideal' shape. Everyone. Including him.

It's not even a remotely big nose, or misshapen or anything like that. You are fixating on something that no one else can even see.

You would (presumably) never speak so cruelly about a friend, or even an acquaintance, so why speak so cruelly about yourself? Be nicer to yourself.

Looks like a perfectly normal nose. Nothing wrong with it at all.

I honestly think your nose looks fine and theres nothing wrong with it xx

You have a perfectly normal nose, and literally nobody looks nice in a side profile.

Looks fine to me OP

if he doesn't like your nose then he isn't worth your time.
I think you need some help with self esteem as you seem to be fixated on your nose.

There is nothing wrong with your nose! I hope this thread gives you the confidence you need to feel better about it

It looks like mine, I’m really self conscious about mine too but looking at yours I think it looks quite nice.
People tell me mine is fine, some even say they like it, but it’s an insecurity that never quite leaves.

Nice shape nose and nice profile, OP!

Your nose is really similar to my DH's, it's my favourite thing about him.

I bloody love pointy noses I've got a little squashed up button nose and I've always been jealous of people with pointy noses 😂

So yeah, I love your nose OP.

Looks better than my broken nose! I don’t think you have anything to worry about.

If a man wasn’t interested in my based on one part of my body I’d be glad to see the back of him as beauty comes from within.

Come on. You can’t be serious. It’s a perfectly normal nose. If you think a nose is all you have to offer, you need to reassess your life and your beliefs.

I love a strong nose, I find it an attractive feature.

I think it looks elegant. Kind of Virginia woolfy

I think it is very elegant looking.
I had a very large hooked nose which was too big for my face. I suffered on going ridicule and comments from the age of 11 until I had it done at 26. Mostly strangers, including adults! I’m sure if yours was awful, others would have made it known to you.
I think yours is lovely and elegant

Well, I could say “You don’t have a big nose” (you don’t), but what I’m actually going to say is, “If you did have a big nose - and he was the kind of guy who didn’t like big noses - hiding it on Zoom wouldn’t help. Because when you met him, there’d still be... your nose.”

So try to chill about it. It’s your face.

It’s not big anyway.

I used to worry about my nose as well! I used to try to make sure people didn't see me from the side, wear my hair a certain way, delete photos of myself that were in profile.

1. your nose is nicer than mine
2. don't fixate on it, when people look at you they look at your whole face/body not one little part as your nose will just be part of what they see
3. you might need to speak to someone about your self image if this worry is stopping you from feeling comfortable and confident

@Hohum41 do you have quite big facial features? I've got high cheekbones, wid ish nose and big plumped lips and at 34 my side profile still blows my mind. My nose looks so sharp compared to my front view that it confuses the duck out of me.
