Sad face and confidence?

I have a sad face -- very dark circles that are genetic, 24 hour beard shadow, sorrowful eyes, serious look, moderate balding, etc...

I am tired or girls asking me why I am sad all the time -- because I am not! I am reasonably confident, except for my looks.that often make me feel low. My pics are terrible and I look like I stepped out of rehab and depression (but I am not depressed and generally am an optimist!). I am also not overweight or short...but my pics make me look very bad because of the sad face.

How can I increase my confidence (which is not low, but probably needs to be much higher to compensate for my looks)?

Women, how can I be more successful in the dating game with this face?

I would appreciate young girls not answering, as they usually say balding eww...body hair eww etc..

The two things that would make a difference is a hair transplant and makeup in my dark circles. However, as yet, I am not keen on either.

Don't worry about your pictures. It's what's in person that counts. As far as having a sad face, I know how that is. People tell me I look tragic. However, a lot of smiling and alert eyes (a little bit more open than at rest and slightly raised eyebrows) go very, very far- not just in how you appear but how approachable and desirable you are.

I have a problem with lack of confidence as well and have been working on it. I would try simply initiating conversations with strangers- anybody. You will be surprised. I was.

Confident is not a look...its in your walk, your laughter, the way you carry yourself.

I will tell you this. I dated a man and by looks he was a 3 but his swagger and levels of confident man testosterone was a 10..so its all in how you carry yourself. Have you ever met a woman who was not so attractive but something about her just ate away at you?
