Why do I look so different in the mirror compared to seeing pictures of me?

Original Post

ok ok i admit i came across this topic on reddit.com and to be honest I have had this notion for years. I have always disliked myself when i look at my pic vs when i look at myself in the mirror. Anyone else in Sajha have the same feeling?

Not sure about that. But I do think I sound a lot different when my voice is recorded than my real voice, but my roompa says otherwise.

I have a different one. People always say that i have a big smile; they talk of how i always smile and laugh. But when i take pictures, i look so sad and the smile really seems fake. when i am ready to take picture then something comes in front of my eyes like a spider web or something and my one eye seems smaller than the other when in fact both of them are equal. Because of this, i am starting to feel like never taking picture anymore. I look better in reality than in pictures.

picture is basically how others see you -- no switching of sides from left to right. Mirror is how you see it as the left and right of the image will be switched. Bottomline, don't know this fact and just feel good with the mirror image. All it counts is what you think. Enough of the rambling here :)
