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 is lovely.

xanthian · 28/01/2021 22:52

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it! A nice, strong nose.

toocold54 · 28/01/2021 22:53
  1. Nearly everyone thinks they have a big nose - I think it’s because it sticks out.
  1. You actually have a really nice nose! It’s a really nice shape lol

WTF!
Jealous much?

babbaloushka · 28/01/2021 22:55

I think it's gorgeous, very classic and elegant. Mine looks like Alan Rickman's. Except he suited it.

EmpressSuiko · 28/01/2021 22:55

Nothing wrong with your nose it’s lovely!

You should see mine! I inherited my fathers Jewish nose, it’s large, over projected and upturned and it’s been broken more than once so it’s not straight anymore, my husband still thinks I’m beautiful despite how much I hate it.

If any man did decide they didn’t like you for your nose then they aren’t worth worrying about anyway, you want a man that sees you as a whole and embraces every part of you and loves every part of you.

VetiverAndLavender · 28/01/2021 22:55

Looks like a nice, normal nose to me (though I will admit that looking at a nose from every angle in a collage of photos gives a chuckle just for the sheer absurdity of it).

Most of us have things about ourselves that we fixate on and think everyone will notice and dislike, but in reality, people rarely notice (or care, if they do). They're usually too busy worrying about their own personal quirks or flaws.

thelake · 28/01/2021 22:55

Sorry... I mean honestly you don't have any worries. I said that because I have a similar nose and was anxious about it and then realised it was my face in general drawing attention to. Nose.

toocold54 · 28/01/2021 22:56

You can’t even see OPs chin in the pics anyway - what an absolute twat!

You’re obviously jealous of OP! Get a grip!

HalfGirlHalfCake · 28/01/2021 22:57

I think he would be more worried about the red shit all over the rest of your face

babbaloushka · 28/01/2021 22:57

Your skin also looks impeccable for 34, very jealous. Genuinely a lovely nose, what would be considered the conventional beauty standard.

Hohum41 · 28/01/2021 22:58

Really appreciate the replies. Thank you.

It is hilarious the collage. But I've been putting myself down so I thought what better way than to see what others think. Maybe my phone camera makes it look way worse.

What's a receding chin lol?

Also agree with the PP who said a man who cares about your nose isn't a man you want. My dear old mum used to say "The people that matter don't mind, and the people that mind don't matter".

Sunbeam18 · 28/01/2021 23:05

It looks beautiful and delicate, like Phoebe Waller-Bridge's face

yahyahs22 · 28/01/2021 23:05

@halfgirlhalfcake ha! Made me chuckle

thosetalesofunexpected · 28/01/2021 23:06

@Hohum41

You have a normal definate acctractive nose.
This guy is acctracted to your looks and personality too,Op, that's why he is interested in you.

I know its difficult don't get hung up on that media and our societys Crap perception ,(narrow/skewed beauty ideals.

Beauty comes in all different kinds of shapes and sizes !
Which is good for all of us,as it would be boring world if everybody was the same.

LibrariesGiveUsPower45321 · 28/01/2021 23:10

It’s a lovely nose.

thosetalesofunexpected · 28/01/2021 23:13

@Hohum41
Also op,a guy who only cares about what somebody looks like,is not a guy a person worth knowing
As that kind of a person is superficial, no depth personality wise ,not a well balanced person and he would proberly a bad attitude problem thinking he was gods gift to women,being a player(playboy reptuation treating women like desirable toys to mess about with,not treating seeing women as equals etc.

You have nothing to worry about
Enjoy dating your love interest,hope it all goes well for you.DaffodilCakeWine xx

StillMedusa · 28/01/2021 23:15

You have an elegant, classic nice slim nose.
I do not..
However despite having a nose like a Sesame Street Honker, I have managed to have a nice dh and 4 normal looking kids (two of whom have sadly inherited my nose!) Both I, and the kids (now adults) have learned to live with our noses Grin

Mine still surprises me in side on photos though!!! Enjoy your date, when it happens... (ps this is not an actual photo of me and my kids..but it could be#!!!!)

hulahooper2 · 28/01/2021 23:16

You are overthinking this , it looks fine , if you had one like mine I would understand your concerns.

Comfortzone · 28/01/2021 23:18

It looks expensive - looks like it has been chiselled at an expensive plastic surgery Even though it hasn't if that makes sense?

you prob have great bone structure and cheekbones and really clear skin

Can you list 3 things you do like about your face and focus on thiis instead for a day at a time? May help

Notashandyta · 28/01/2021 23:20

Alot of people would kill for a nose that looks like yours!

Letsrunabath · 28/01/2021 23:21

Your nose is absolutely normal. Has someone commented on it and that’s why you worry? I’m 53 and still remember a nasty comment from my childhood on my skinny legs, if they could see me now🤣🤣🤣

Bandino · 28/01/2021 23:22

It's the nose of a beautiful person for sure. I have more of a squashed sausage. Most people dont focus on one feature when they're admiring, but the whole package.

VeganCow · 28/01/2021 23:25

Normal nose OP
