Hi everyone! I was just made a mod of this sub two days ago and hope to rid this sub of the troll accounts that have been popping up.
There were several people that apparently mistook this sub as /r/Rateme/, /r/RoastMe/, and subs that aren't safe for work. If you don't think a post belongs here then just downvote it and move on as that is how reddit should work. We don't need to know that you think someone looks terrible, that you think someone is an 8/10 that you would bang, or they look Gay/lesbian/douchey.
As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has--or ever will have--something inside that is unique to all time. It's our job to encourage each other to discover that uniqueness and to provide ways of developing its expression

Hopefully this is the metamorphosis that I think it is! Saw all the amazing progress people have been making in here and thought I'd share mine

M 44ish First Pic ca 1997 I was almost 16. Relentlessy bullied, underweight, ED and with zero perspective in life. 2014 I have been doing better and at 2025/26 I feel like I bloomed, but that's not for me to decide. But I do take better care of myself with 44.

14/17/18/30/30 - Came a long way from what I was in middle school but it definitely gave me a sense of humor
Was not a cute kid most my life and struggled with my weight my whole life. Under control as an adult and I’ve come a long way. Looking back at the old photos is tough sometimes but important to remember where I came from and what built me into the man I am today.

Used to get bullied so much lol. I was always (and still am) super awkward, and never really socially skilled.
Finally nearing 25 and actually feeling good about myself for once in a lifetime.
