    Ok... Is it true that windows shows the most accurate image of yourself?

    And mirrors can make you desensitive yourself?

    I had an english teacher who always said that mirrors don't usually show the imperfections as they're seen to other people. I don't know how true that is, but I hate those huge close up mirrors where it magnifies everything. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Photographs usually show the opposite to what we see in the mirror, so when we look at a photograph of ourself, we're far more likely to prefer it if it's flipped to a mirror image, because that's what we're used to seeing. But people who know us will prefer it the other way, because they're used to seeing us the opposite to that…

    I don't see why windows would be more accurate. I don't know about new windows, but the windows in my house aren't perfectly straight because they're so old. And you can see less I think in your reflection in windows so I'm not sure why that would be most accurate.

    I don't know maybe because they're wider?? and unlike mirrors can be bent whilst windowds are straight, because they're hard?

    Ok that doesn't even make sense lol

    Obviously a mirror just reflects on your life, while a window shows the window into your soul :grin:

    Mr Grumpy gills. You need some self confidence. Self confidence and loving yourself (not over the top) is sexy. (!)

    Mirrors never lie they tell you the truth whether you like it or not
