Some of these posts are terribly mean. Seriously dude, don't sweat about it. If you think it is a serious issue see a doctor maybe.

Anyway, I wouldn't really worry....time will age you. Being mentally and physically fit is all thats important...
Hair is fine, unless you want to shape it...probably lots of people are bald/balding anyway

Your hair has a 'i'm a moody 14 year old skateboarder' look to it, cut if off
and i'd work really hard at growing some facial hair
and for fucks sake, SMILE.

The photo shows you with more weight and healthier skin. You can look better if you arch your eyelashes, now seems you don't have any.
There you go, OP. Put on some weight and get a little sun. Seriously, it's a huge improvement. You'd go from gaunt to good-looking. Best of luck!
well uh
+ get a new wardrobe. blue t-shirt from wal-mart is probably not going to catch any eyes.
+ cut the hair. wild and unkempt looks good if you're part of some stoner cult or a rockstar with facial hair to match, which you are neither.
+ Go see a dietitian. Us telling you what you need to eat to gain weight is not going to help. You need a specific course of action for your body to do so. You're not merely skinny, you're unhealthy. It's a bit ironic me saying this since I'm fat and should do the same thing, but I didn't make a thread about it!
+ See a dermatologist. You're still young, so I'm sure any damage done to your pale skin can be reversed.
And if all else fails, start going out and having fun. Just do whatever it is you do, but insert weed into your life or something. Might as well be high if you don't want to take the steps to change from looking like that.

I told myself i wasn't going to reply to this thread cause it hits close to home, but fuck it. I was a similar boat around 18-21 (23 now), 115-120 lbs (5'5" at that time). You're definitely not in for a quick fix, but hey at least you can experiment now to get to the look you want. Everything has already been said about what you should do so I'm just gonna repeat shit.
-cut your hair. I'm not saying go bald or go for short hair, hell long hair might suit you better, but the current hairstyle isn't helping your goal at all. Experiment, see what you like and if you can't decide people will definitely let you know what style they think best suits you.
-gain weight. It's hard to get started I know, I had (still have) a fast metabolism, but once I sat down and really looked at my food intake per day, I knew I had to change it. I wasn't getting enough, I started eating properly (and albeit more than what I was supposed to) I gained weight and was the BIGGEST contributing factor in my change.
-work out. If you start gaining weight, it would be a good idea to semi control where exactly it goes. Otherwise It'll go straight to your stomach (this is what I did wrong, I stopped working out..). You don't have to work out a lot either, but after seeing results you will probably double your regiment.
-look into maybe changing your style. Not saying you dress horribly, or that you need to change your wardrobe. But your wardrobe can help you portray the image you want be it older or younger.
A little extra sun wouldn't hurt either...

its mean but its true.
Its not like he is doomed to be ugly for the rest of his life. Most people in this thread have pretty much adressed the reasons as to why he is ugly.
-Hair
-Weight
-Paleness
Really he only needs to fix those 3 things and he'd be like every other guy out there.

The people who have been blunt have also offered suggestions and constructive ways for the OP to improve his look , if he so badly wishes to.
Internet or not, I can't see what someone could possibly gain out of pointing at a guy and saying "You're ugly! You should get surgery!" (Particularly since he may already have low self-esteem) Knowing GAF (And the internet), a lot of people are going to come down and find a plethora of reasons why it's OK to say shit like that. This is the problem with posting your photo on the internet, though.
Maybe it's just me -- I tend to post/interact with other members according to how I speak to people in RL, and not use internet anonymity as a means to act like a complete and utter dickhead.

I can't believe that some people here suggesting him to see a dermatologist.
I can't see anything wrong with his skin(exept paleness which isn't a problem).
Don't see a skin-doc, take a walk in the sun and you are done.

Maaan, some of you people are mean! He looks young but I think a lot of it has to do with the (maybe accidental) typical expression of an angsty teen in those pics. He should take some more positive, happy or confident looking photos from a different perspektive and maybe shake his hair a bit.

I won't post any pictures, but I always look younger than I am. I wouldn't say I am as young looking as you, but when I was 20 I could go as 16. Right now I'm 23 and could easily get ID'd. Depends on my mannersim and confidence, also what I'm wearing.
It's a good thing. We will age slower. And older women love it, they think they got themsleves a young man. Actually I have always got way more attention from women older than me, than my age. When I was younger I never realised, a girl once told me, her mum really thought I should go out with her daughter (the girl telling me), she just said she didn't see what her mum did, plus the rebel factor. Then as I got in to my late teens, it used to happen often. I get along with lots of friend's mums.
Women my age however, still hopeless. Waiting for the thick stubble. Then the neo-Don Juan will be born.
:lol

Some good advice, but also a lot of assholes in this thread.
To the OP: with some work I think you can improve your looks massively. I'm probably echoing a lot of advice already given in this thread but I think you should:
- Go to the gym around 2-3 times a week; combined with eating more and maybe differently. Don't just start to eat crappy american burgers to gain fat, but drink more milk, eat more eggs and stuff like tuna. If you're having trouble just eating more, the weight-lifting will help with that since it greatly improves your appetite, at least it does for me.
This will make you bigger, which also helps you to better fit into clothes, which brings me to the next point:
- Improve your wardrobe. It doesn't have to cost a fortune, but with a little more attention you can look a lot better. A quality pair of jeans with some nice shirts or t-shirts goes a long way. Maybe take a female friend shopping with you so she can help you if you're unsure.
- Final point is the haircut. I suggest keeping it a lot shorter. Don't go all-out buzz-cut, but keep at least like a centimeter so your headskin won't show through (this can look terrible on white guys). The picture some other person posted will look great on you I think:
I'm positive that if you do this and keep it up for a few months you will quickly see a massive improvement. But it's up to you to make the change.
