Were you good looking as a teenager?

I wasn't aware they had color cameras in the wild west 😱

Lol, the other one I was thinking about you (well, actually, not so much you) would like better -- it's my freshman year and is me with my then g/f. She was a natural blond and ssssssmokin' hawt. Her nickname was Honey West, after a character on a TV show of the time.

Yeah, we had TV's too. :awe:
 
Had many girlfriends as a teen. Never considered myself particularly good looking but never lacked women.

Here's a pic of me from 16 years ago...it's the oldest picture I have and I'd have to scan a photo from when I was a teen since it was long before digital cameras.

I was 34 at the time:

At 13, I was 6' 2'', 145lbs with no fashion sense and large gold rimmed glasses.


So . . . . . . No. I did not look good when I was a teenager.

Thankfully, things have since evened themselves out a bit.
 
Interesting, didnt know this happened with so many people

Same here... Was incredibly cute up until 10 year old or so, then caught teh ugly, and only got rid of it by 20~, and now I am looking better and better as I get older (as most men do)
 
I'm not sure. It seems my looks were always out of time. Little girls and old women liked the way I looked. Oh yea, and queers :^/
 
My friends certainly thought so.
Then again I did not have the popularity because I was not into "girly" things. 😀
 
I thought I was fat in high school, but nowadays my today self would have held my past self down and fed me a sandwich.
 
I think I was pretty good looking as a teenager. I didn't believe so back then, despite all of the attention I got from girls. Low self esteem, low self confidence plus extreme social awkwardness/shyness was my downfall.

I look very similar nowadays to how I looked back then, just more mature. 🙂
