You look good with the long hair. Grow it out again. That picture ... For some reason, you look like you have more defined cheekbones. So if you can get more defined ones through osteotomies, go for it.
My father told me that I look like a drug addict (which I kind of am, so that's just going for honesty the way I see it) with the long hair.
I think that the defined cheekbones look comes from "better" (more pleasing) lighting and the contours created by the hair framing my face.
I cant believe that a surgeon propose you such invasive surgery . Your second pictures with the long hairs make me curios are this before or after jaw surgery? On this photo you have already very pronounced cheeks like johnny depp in the movie where he plays the dealer forget the name...Im not kidding you look a bit like him on this photo Hey man its not so bad like you think are you swedish you look nordic?
Oh, no surgeon proposed it to me. It was I who asked them to consider it and that I would be interesting in paying a lot of money.
The pic with the long hair is preop. Postop I am still a bit swollen which makes me look asymmetrical and weird.
Yeah, I am Swedish.
I think it's because he's makeing the duck lip face. Though it does give some insight to what he'd look like with projecting cheekbones.
I can see why it would look like that, but no, I am not pouting. My mouth is naturally pouty-looking as a consequence of my braces (and reasonably full/feminine lips). Perhaps the cheekbones look more projecting due to lens distortion (unlike the other images, that one was taken from a distance greater than 1 meter).
when someone pouts/makes a bit of a duck face, why does it make their face more attractive? (forget about the lips looking bigger. Ignore the lips). What procedure best mimics this look?
OP - I think you look pretty good.
How tall are you?
And how can you afford to pay for numerous expensive surgeries with seemingly little regard for the costs? You rich? Rich parents?
Just curious!
To be honest I think that I do look pretty decent in the long hair pic, but it is grainy and probably paints an overly flattering image. The yellowish lighting makes my skin look better.
I am 6'1.
My family has a fair amount of money, yeah.
OP, can you share how many milimeters your upper and lower jaw were moved ?
As soon as my surgeon gives me the details.
Well listen buddy, if you have severe depression and suicidal ideation that is a massive problem. If things get really bad you should go see a psychiatrist and go on drugs. I'm hesitant to wholeheartedly recommend that since drugs are addictive (I've been on both sides and know how tough that can be mentally when all you want to do is blow your brains out --it's a living hell).
Okay, your problems post-surgery are not physical. More than a few people have told you you're good looking. You need to take baby steps to working on your ability to interact, talk, socialize with the opposite sex. Do you have groups of friends and such that could kind of ease that sort of interaction? Also, if you're a student of Weston A. Price and such, you should begin exercising and building up a killer body and eating paleo will help with that.
You keep making all these statements about how empirically grounded your philosophy is but you do realize that your supposed ugliness to the opposite sex is based on anecdotal evidence at best, right? You seem to assert it as a theory and it's not, it's the misguided hypothesis you are erroneously living your life through. Well, I'm not here to debate scientific epistemology (see two can play at your little pseudo-intellectual game bubbah!). lol
Anyway, you're not retarded. Join some clubs, play sports, go out and get drunk. You're in europe, bang some hookers dude, it's legal for you. At least that'll get rid of some of that cum that's clearly backed up into your brain and made you this moronic.
Also, could you please save us the melodrama as the attention you're clearly craving should come from real world people and not the internets.
Generally speaking I don't disagree with you. Just a few notes:
1. I can't legally have sex with prostitutes here (there are no "European" laws that permit it). Even if I could, it would be pointless as there would be no genuine attraction of the flesh involved, and that is what I crave.
2. I am socially retarded in many ways.
3. I haven't claimed that my philosophy (classical skepticism) is empirically grounded, just that scientistic dogma is empirically unfounded. If you want to discuss epistemology we should do it elsewhere.
4. There is plenty of truth to the claim that I do crave something (supposed melodrama aside), but it isn't attention. What I do desire is mutual attraction, and there is little to none of that to be had here. From my tenure here I want unbiased opinions as for what aspects of my look could be altered osteotomically.
