can you get bored of your own face?
i dunno about everyone else but i am, i mean, i dont think theres anything wrong with it and i dont want plastic surgery or anything.... i guess just a change would be nice

i dont think its socially acceptable though

canadian bear · 5th Apr 2010, 10:29 AM

i think everyone gets bored with them self at times be it there face or there body

i know i have at times

5th Apr 2010, 12:44 PM

Unfortunatly your stuck with it unless u decide to get the surgery. and once you get that you are still constantly havin to get it seen to. really people should be happy with what they have.

KatieIt · 5th Apr 2010, 12:50 PM

Yes, all the time. Sometimes it's particularly bad and I have to avoid the mirror for some time, otherwise I might get scissor happy and chop my bangs off or pluck my eyebrows till they disappear (since I can't really do anything to change my nose... well, maybe banging my face against the wall

would do something

)

So yeah, i think it's normal, sort of.

RaeofLite · 5th Apr 2010, 12:51 PM

Well some days I wish I had less 'baby face' features but apparently they make me look cute, so I guess that's nothing to be ashamed of.

But no, not really. I can get bored of my hair style though. I've also tried coloured contact lenses a couple times, although they seem to dry out my eyes more than regular lenses.

Z3ni · 5th Apr 2010, 01:02 PM

Yeah gets boring when its just me in the mirror but with other people in the mirror not as.

L|L · 5th Apr 2010, 04:56 PM

Sometimes, I don't even recognise the reflection.

Dr Acula · 5th Apr 2010, 05:04 PM

I sort of get what you mean. I usually just end up changing my image a little - leaving some stubble, thinning the eyebrows a little, changing hairstlye, wearing another pair of my many glasses. The only thing I wish I could change would be my lazy eye - it's not terrible but it just annoys me because people tell me I have nice eyes (grey/blue).

Anyway, I guess I have to live with it so I've kinda got used to it - my body shape on the other hand is something I can change.

Grottodude · 6th Apr 2010, 09:09 AM

To be honest, I'm getting more excited that I don't look like a really freaking tall child. Baby-faced-ness-ity-ocity sucks when you're nineteen and six-foot-four.

Markio · 6th Apr 2010, 11:45 AM

Wear sunglasses. Or practice contorting your facial muscles! Funny faces are fun.

If you're bored with your face, don't look at it so often! Get rid of those mirrors...

**Lexington** · 7th Apr 2010, 10:36 AM

Nah, I'm used to it. Can't say it's all that attractive, but it's MINE.

To me, the weird thing is how many people I hear say things like this - "I just get so tired of the way I look" - but how many of these same people get tattoos.

is the lazy eye thing where one eye looks like its looking a different direction to the otehr? i have a guy taht comes into my store like that and i must say its kinda amusing yet it puts me off at the same time. its odd. but on the upside hes a nice lad.

Connor22 · 7th Apr 2010, 02:31 PM

^ yeah like a teacher I had once, one eyes looking at you, one eyes looking for you

Woot · 7th Apr 2010, 02:44 PM

I get bored of my body sometimes, but I don't have anything to worry about because when I turn side-ways I practically disappear. XD

I'm definitely tired of seeing my face, but I just avoid mirrors (so people won't be able to see my true SINISTER form mwahaha) :]
