Do you have any tips (besides go to therapy)?Do you just work out until you like yourself?

I am Adonis. I am Adonis. I am Adonis.
Women will have sex with chad one time in their whole lives and then think they're goddess-tier because their womanbrains can't comprehend the idea of chad sleeping with someone who's average or below.
>>77104389You couldn't produce a more inverted image if you tried. Even today my fat retarded gf was trying to show me a muscle of hers from all her working out lately after her news years resolution. She went twice a week max in jan, i dragged her along 3 times in feb and she now hasn't been for 12 days. This morning i saw her shovel forkfuls of pure icing from her birthday cake into her mouth then use her finger to collect every remnant from the plate. I outright told her she was fat and embarrassed me so we haven't talked since. Thinking im out of here.
>>77104389>therapy Are you a man or a fucking fag?Who even gets body dysmorphia other than queers and women?Go outside!
>>77104389Realize body dismorphia is for women. Think of yourself as the chihuahua, no matter if it is big or small it will bark at all the dogs and annoy me
>>77105207Honestly, I’d settle for a fat girlfriend at this point. Just anyone with low self esteem.
>>77104557It reminds me of a convo I overheard between my wife and a past friend/acquintance of hers>But we slept together and it was very good, why did he just ghost me? Why are men like this?>It's not "men", it's because he's all ripped and handsome, guys like this will sleep with girls overall but will only date top models, if they date at all>wtf, is there something wrong with me??>no sis, a lot of men would date you, but guys like him will only date "perfect" girls according to beauty standards>but why did he sleep with me then???>because... nevermindI think my wife being "too real" with this girl played a part in they eventually growing apart. Most women just cannot accept uncomfortable facts, their brains outright refuse to.
>>77104389First: gymcels not being satisfied with their physique isn't "body dysmorphia". Actual clinical body dysmorphia is most often about the face, and it's when you look in the mirror and see something completely unlike your actual face. Like a 5/10 or above seeing themselves as hideous and deformed.In my case, the symptoms were brutal in my teens but gradually improved as I aged. I trained myself to stop looking in the mirror except when necessary (e.g. shaving) and from a distance. Its a type of OCD so avoiding the checking is probably important to healing.
>>77105250It ends up being annoying most of the time unless you're a sadist or into fat chicks. Imagine having to hang out with your low motivation useless fat acquaintance from work who's always on his phone but now it's your responsibility to inflate his self esteem
>>77104389>Do you just work out until you like yourself?You should never be fully content with how you are, that's game over. The moment you're fully satisified, you stop improving and let yourself go. Just learn to enjoy the journey, because we are never reaching the destination.

>>77105285Men can distinguish between love and sex, women can't. Back in the 80s and 90s, everyone knew this.
>>77104557>>77105285>Tfw on the opposite end of this after having a had med PhD student that did ballet (apperently it's called barre when you just do it for exercise and for going on stage) last year. Didnt even have the decency to properly reject and ghosted me. Didnt remove the match on the dating app so I did that a month and a half later to pretend we're mutually dissing each other. Have been on a couple dates since then, but they've mostly been shit or meh.
>>77104389>How to overcome body dysmorphia?Just achieve your goal body. Weaponize your autism into having a perfect routine and diet for years until you get there. Hope this helps.
>>77104389I went through several phases. I started off as a skelly and when I made my noob gains I thought I looked jacked and amazing. I looked good but not impressive. I realized, nope, I'm still fucking skinny, I need to get much bigger, so I put on more size over the years but I always felt like I was another 10 years away from where I wanted to be. Eventually, I just took a step back, did some self-reflection, looked at my current body and my goals objectively and realistically, and instead set smaller, achievable milestones. There is no ultimate goal or look I'm going for anymore, it's just a constant journey of becoming a little bit better every day. I accept that I'm not quite there, but I'm in a good spot already.
>>77104389I see myself as scrawny no matter what I do. I know I'm not scrawny, but I can't help what my brain interprets. It's frustrating.This is how people end up on steroids.
>>77105207Same my wife works out like two days every other month and then send me pics of her arms but she's like 35% bf
>>77105207>>77108437My gf is 250 lbs and the other day she was telling me she almost has an hour glass figure. And she has very unfortunate fat distribution so none of it is on her ass and thighs, mostly belly. I often go back and forth in my mind because i really enjoy most of my time spent with her and she's pretty enough but i dont know if i will ever be attracted to her body at this point.

>>77104389Being dissatisfied with your current state of affairs is necessary to do something more. Wanting a better body/life/bank account, etc always comes with the shitty feeling that you don't have enough.The recent idea that there's something wrong with wanting more is female intrasexual warfare (noooo queen, It's okay to be unattractive!). Don't fall for it
>>77104389me on the rightlooking good!
>>77108482I agree in principle, but here’s the thing: if all you measure yourself by is the ultimate goal, you’re gonna feel behind no matter what. You can grind for years, make more money, build real financial stability, and still call yourself broke because you’re not at the finish line. That’s really just a messed up way of judging yourself. Being real about how far you’ve come doesn’t kill drive. It just gives you a clearer picture of where you actually are.
>>77105207>>77108437>>77108468same ish but not as bad, mine is 160 at 5'5 and gained about 30lbs with 3 pregnancies between 2020 and 2023 and hasn't shed them yet. she will fluctuate day to day with 3-5lbs up or down and will tell me how she looks visibly thinner when it's down. she's aware of the problem and knows her perfect weight though (around 130 ish), so i'm patient and setting an example by exercising so she can notice and already turned her onto a more stricter healthier eating habits. wagmi
Is it true you can look way way way bigger if you lose enough fat and become toned whilst maintaining lifts? I'm not overweight but it would take about 10-12 weeks of very disciplined cutting for me to see my veins, tone, etc. again and I'm curious if the visual difference would legitimately make me look way more stacked
>>77104389The moment you start lifting is the moment when you'll be forever small.
>>77104389It's better to lift and therefore train for specific goals like "being able to lift X amount in Y exercise" instead of chasing vague fantasies like the ideal body. Train for something specific, eat a lot of protein, try to sleep enough and the rest will follow.
