I'm 18M and I have a huge problem being on camera. I don't like being in photos, videos or selfies be it solo or group. I destroyed any childhood pictures of myself that I could find, there are still a few that my parents hid from me, the only pictures that exist of mine are for official IDs and stuff. Lot of people tell me I'm cute/handsome/good looking not just girls but guys too and people have this confused look when they find out I don't have profile pics on any social media let alone any posts. I have genuinely tried but I'm just not comfortable with it, I always look awkward and don't know how to pose. Am I just not photogenic?
Now coming to the actual question, would a girl break up with me if I never take pictures by the way. Every girl I know has dozens of pictures on IG with or without her boyfriend, I could never be that kind of guy. So far I've only dated 2 beautiful girls (found it hard to believe that they liked me) but never had anything long term or serious bcz I knew I'd have to leave them when I go to college in a different city or state. Also, am I shooting myself in the foot by not being on dating apps?
Is having a camera shy boyfriend a turn off?
