6 Psychological Things That make You Less Attractive 

Society: "Just be yourself" Also society: "No not like that"

I 100% agree that attraction is Psycological because I've been attracted to people who aren't even physically attractive

Here you go, guys: 1. Being sleep deprived 2. Body smell 3. Love yourself 4. Not being humble 5. Overly smiley 6. Contractive body language

Funnily enough, I actually like sleep deprivation. I have absolutely no clue why, but I think it makes a person hotter. The messy hair, the restless eyes, it’s just appealing to me. I also like rbfs a lot, and don’t really like smiles. But the smile of a person I really like can be nice

“Being sleep deprived isn’t attractive” *I shall stay single forever*

here a list for the people in a hurry: 1. being sleep deprived(0:48) 2. body smell (1:28) 3. excessive focus on appearance (2:11) 4. not being humble (2:42) 5. overly smiley/ too proud (3:36) 6. contractive body language (4:01)

Love that u put Eddsworld character here

As someone who has a deep seeded hatred for themselves, loving yourself is, unfortunately, a big one. The amount of times I've heard from girls at the end of the relationship say "How do you expect someone to love you when you can't love yourself." But you can't force someone to love you... Can I force myself to love me?

“Turtles are cute, but its because they’re turtles… your a human… dont try to turtle yourself” has to be one of the most adorable ways to tell someone to open up a bit

(before the 6 things) Attraction is based on 3 things: 1. You consider them approachable 2. Belive in positive facts about them 3. They make you feel good

Firstly, I think it's important to acknowledge that attraction is indeed a complex thing. It's not just about physical beauty, but rather a combination of factors that involve both the external and internal aspects of a person. The video highlights some of the psychological factors that can make someone less attractive, and I think it's valuable to consider these factors when trying to build new relationships or maintain existing ones. One of the factors that stood out to me is the importance of being approachable. It's true that when meeting someone for the first time, we rely on sight to give us an initial assessment of the person. If someone appears tired or unkempt, it can be off-putting and may affect how we perceive their overall attractiveness. This is why getting enough sleep and taking care of ourselves is crucial not just for our physical health, but also for our social interactions. Another interesting point in the video is the role of body smell in attraction. It's fascinating to learn that our body odor is influenced by our genes, specifically the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Studies have found that people are generally more attracted to individuals with dissimilar MHCs, which may encourage gene variability and stronger immune systems. This just goes to show that there are deeper biological factors at play when it comes to attraction. I also agree with the video's point about the importance of not being overly focused on appearance. While it's important to look and feel good, being obsessed with one's self-image can be a turn-off for others. Substance and character are just as important in building and maintaining relationships. Finally, the video emphasizes the significance of nonverbal communication and body language in attraction. Having an open and expansive posture is generally seen as more attractive than a closed and contractive posture. This is because a contractive posture may convey a message of not being open or welcoming to others, while an expansive posture can make us appear more confident and approachable. Overall, I think the video provides valuable insights into the complex factors that contribute to attraction. While we may not be able to control some of these factors, such as our genes and body odor, we can certainly work on the aspects that we can control, such as our posture, social skills, and character. By being aware of these psychological factors, we can better understand ourselves and others and build more meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

I like how this video is giving you advice on how to actually control yourself and take care of yourself as well

Takes “I’m ugly and I’m proud” to a new level.

I feel like the whole body language thing is very difficult. I automatically default to crossed arms AND legs when in public. When I do realize, I try fixing my posture/sitting position, but without realizing, I quickly revert back.

Man I love your videos & YOUR ART STYLE! its just so cute !

"Attraction is actually a complex thing involving the whole person, flaws and all" In my opinion clumsiness is not so bad.

I have to absolutely disagree with the smile one. People who always smile are more approachable, I always smile and many told me that my Joyful personality makes them laigh or they are happy to have me around. So always smile when you talk to someone, you'll put them more at ease

The one person I've been with that I believe I genuinely loved wasn't exactly "conventionally attractive". She was kinda boyish and had short hair, and I get the feeling that most people wouldn't find her attractive based on her looks, but becuase I enjoyed her company so much, personally, I thought she was adorable. I thought everything about her was attractive. I think when you genuinely love someone, it doesn't matter what they look like, because they're perfect in your own eyes.

I was actually pretty worried that this would really hit my currently-fragile self-confidence (healing from some hurts), but this was delightfully presented and helped me realize that I'm doing better than I think 😌

Ive never understood beauty standards because 1: even if i think someone is attractive, i wont actually be attracted to them until i get to know them, then they become 10x more attractive to me 2: personally i think commonly " not attractive" things such an large or crooked noses, dark circles under eyes, wonky teeth/tooth gap, ect are so attractive, i just love them so much and i know im not the only one so i just dont get why people have these unnaturally difficult beauty standards. Everyone is beautiful to someone.😊

I've had trouble with the smiling part. I'm on the spectrum, and upon learning this at the age of 15, I had to teach myself to display emotion, and I try to be as clear as possible due to feeling like I'm not communicating properly, which might lead to me overdoing it when I relax in a social situation. When I smile, I mean it with all my heart, because I don't waste my effort on those who I feel don't deserve my limited energy.

Being a chronic insomniac, I can confer that my irritability isn’t very attractive and serves as a turn off. Not to mention my innate ability to just fall asleep mid sentece has failed to impress.

I am currently working on fixing posture so here is what i do: If you realize your posture is not straight try to immediately straighten it up even if it reverts back if you keep doing this it will last longer the more you do it slowly your back will straighten back up again but once you get older the harder it is to have better posture so try to keep the good posture or improve it as soon as possible a good spine is also healthier then a broken one

This video is so calm and makes things seem nice, and then I look on twitter and instagram and wonder what is even real anymore.

"1. Being sleep dep--" Alright, I'm already unattractive.

Being attractive still varies for different mindsets ig. I don't find people who have expressive body language attractive. I cannot care less about their haggard appearance. I don't find humbleness attractive either. It's just what it is, it never draws me in. So, there is nothing like, "this is always attractive". It is just a perception of finding something appealing/unappealing. It's just mind, not the truth. Yeah, it's a waste of our time thinking about whether people find us attractive or not. No matter how attractive I am, I am still ugly for many people. Guys, just don't find a reason to be yourself. Being yourself is like existing. You cannot live as a worker bee while being a queen bee or vice versa. Accepting yourself is the only way to get peace and joy within yourself. Otherwise, you keep struggling with yourself like a trapped mouse or something. All the best in that 🤞 (I, the one who ranted am terribly insecure about attractiveness but.....I am slowly understanding things. Getting aware of things you already know is the first step in healing anything. Hope this long-ass comment helps someone in getting aware for nth time. It helped me!)

Hey Amanda did anyone ever tell u that u have such a nice and calming voice. I'm sure u've had this compliment a ton times.

I used to always have a hunched over back and my posture was terrible, but with the help of 2 years of physical therapy, I got better at my posture, I’m pretty proud of myself

It is good to note that these are found to be attractive to more people than not, which means there is still variation based on a lot of things. For example, just because you fit all of these for a guy or a girl, they may still reject you, or be with you casually and end it because they aren't looking for commitment. They may also just not value some of these things because of how/where they were raised and so they don't find them desirable even if they were found to correlate with better relationships. Some people are also traumatized, maybe immature, etc. There are many reasons why they may reject you regardless of whether you would make a good partner for them. The things to learn are being able to tell your own faults and when to move on from someone.

I was very pleasantly surprised to see Edd, Tom, and Matt. I love all the references in these videos!

Yeeaaaa…. That’s a big step Imma just concentrate on how to talk with people my age. Amazing videos btw! ❤❤

I did an experiment where I went to a bar unwashed (no cologne, no deodorant) and women approached me and acted unusually friendly. A week later I wore the normal amount of cologne (light) and deodorant and only had 1 woman approach me as such. I repeated this for 1 year, alternating weeks. I found almost always, unwashed (not reeking) was most beneficial, especially after being at a gym and lifting weights. I had a woman do the same experiment and got the same results. Pheromones work.

This was a great video and it made me realize more about myself. Thanks! Also, that Eddsworld reference at 2:27 had me smiling. I’ve watched them since 2017!

Wow, loving the references on this channel! Seems like you guys are going for a lot of different fandoms, and personally, I feel seen whenever the fandom I'm currently or previously been in shows up on your videos. I'm getting hit with nostalgia after seeing Matt, Tom, and Edd from Eddsworld:D

Improving body language is the one thing I truly need to improve. Like with my words despite sounding welcoming, body wise still that closed hunched back stance. Complex PTSD and depression really messed me up.

this is literaly being your self ... but in every best way posible

1. Never occurred to me 2. Can be changed, but yes 3. Maybe they're just insecure, I wouldn't mind working through that with them 4. Definitely 5. Overly smiley could be something they can't help / too proud could go either way 6. Doesn't matter And this is just me, even these things differ based on someones preference. Stay safe out there y'all.

The only reason for my contractive body language is just trauma. I’ve gone through a lot. It’s really hard to trust people nowadays… I wish I could, but it’s nearly impossible

I am very happy with this video, because these are all thibgs I was in the past because I thought I might fit in better but am not anymore because my best friends helped me reflect and told me it gave off a bad vibe and I don't need to try so hard! I love that 🥰 ... Though I might still be overly smiley, I experience either no emotions at all or express emotions at incredible extremes, so there is that

For me, ive been sleep deprived since right after kindergarten, For body smell, ive always used deoderant and cologne, naturally dont smell TOO bad, like that weird garlic onion smell, but still use them. For the "love yourself" segment, that didn't come until after highschool, after that though whewee. We take pride in ourself and our accomplishments and dont flaunt it over anyone, only exception would be if someone is trying to shit on me about "knowing more" in a particular subject, othern that, we were raised to be humble. As for the overly smiley segment, i was never overly smiley so idk about that. For the last segment, i was always taught to stand up straight, chest forward, arms a little back, hands forward, and walk like you have "something to do".

2:20 that eddsworld reference tho

Love the Eddworld's referance on 2:38

WAHH IM SORRY, I LOVE THIS VIDEO AND THANK YOU - BUT THE EDDSWORLD AT 2:14 OR SO YAYAYAYAY I LOVE THE SILLY GUYS

EDDSWORLD REFERENCE!!!! Also I like when people are sleep deprived if that makes sense. I kinda like it when some one if disorganized, it gives them more personality you know?

I feel like if someone is too open that freaks me out. So when it comes to contractive body language vs expansive body language is kinda a balance you have to try and strike. Plus if you just genuinely feel uncomfortable in a situation anyone would feel uncomfortable in, but you don't look uncomfortable, I would personally read that as being a little weird. Not super weird but just a tiny little bit. I get what the overarching point of what you mean though, but you should keep this in mind imo.

I always thought that the thing that made me unattractive was my face. Now you're telling me that it was just my chronic insomnia, dead fish eyes, and tendency to lean backwards with my hands in my pockets? What a relief.

YOUR STYLE IS SOOOO GOOOD!!!!

I've never been able to have a specific opinion about people's appearance, but I've always cared a lot about their personality. I can't answer when people ask me something like "what's your type?" , like, I don't care much about the appearance, but rather the character.

I absolutely love the fact that you put matt for the excessive caring over looks 😆

for contractive body language, i will say that for me its the opposite. I feel more threatened by someone who holds their arms open to me, and would rather hang with someone who prefers to be a 'turtle'. To me, it doesn't say 'dont come close'. it says to me 'im not a threat' and i like that. idk what it is about being greeted with open arms that makes me fearful.

well, i only recently figured i would look more accessible if i tried to keep my back straight and smile, but thanks for pointing out the crossed arms thing, i'm sure it'll help !

i love watching your videos im so relaxed with them and they give me so many tips keep doing what you do your amazing!❤

2:05 - I love how Psych2Go includes characters of different shows in their videos!!!!

+Psych2go *Thanks for the list of repulsive traits:* 0:48 (1) Sleep deprivation 1:28 (2) Body odors contraindicative of histocompatibility 2:11 (3) Obsession on appearances 2:42 (4) Lack of humility 3:36 (5) Excessive pride 4:01 (6) Contractive body language

A Cheeky smile, , kindness ,good manners, Humour, loyalty, affectionate, dress sense etc.. no alcoholics, lady beaters or deceit in my life thank you. Sadly, my smile is limited to a tight lipped one as a few years ago, I suffered a stroke/ Bells Palsy and my facial features changed for the worst. My loyalty for my “ someone” remains in tact though. Also my deep heart❤

The person who’s doing the voice has a really nice one and it’s so soothing 💯👏

Contractive body language is something I've done subconsciously as a woman whenever I didn't want the attention of certain people around around me. Especially when around men I was feeling uncomfortable around and was trying to be noticed less by them. I'm sure I'm not the only person who has done something like that subconsciously while feeling uncomfortable or feeling the need to protect themselves in that subtle way.

2:27 eddsworld reference

The key to getting in a relationship is to take care of yourself. If you can't self-motivate, then do it for your future partner! It's a beautiful thing, and it should make you happier in the long run. Good luck out there!

Hello who are You girl ? I have been watching your videos for so long but never subscribed. I love your voice so much . Even when im in pain , Your Voice makes me so calm and happy . I love You ❤

Vid #4 of trying to request a video highlighting the following topics: 1. What you can do if you can't access therapy. 2. Signs your therapist might be harming rather then helping your mental health. 3. What to do in life situations that a therapist cannot fix.

Knowing difference between being proud vs arrogant is vital. For some people who doesn't usually have things to be proud might boast about their success for a while

the smiling part is so hard considering i try to make everyones day better. A smile always helps so I always appear with a smile to brighten peoples day :P

Watching these videos before hanging out is my cup of tea

I feel like the only thing i do from these is having 'excessive focus on appearance'. It's not because I'm obsessed with myself or I'm a narcissist or something, it's just cause I'm really really insecure. About my face, body, everything. I don't wanna be 'less attractive' or something but i just can't help it :(

fact number two is actually really cool. I read about MHC molecules in Philipp Dettmers book "Immune" (recommended if you want to learn about the immune system in a fun way) and I was mindblown. As mentioned in this video, they make the body smell a certain way. smell is a big factor when you're falling in love with someone. the body also thinks your siblings or those closley related to you smell "worse" in a love-sense to prevent incest. I think there are two types of MHC molecules and I cant remember if both affect your smell or if its only one.

at this point idc if im not attractive, because i am already heartbroken haha

Love the voice! Perfect for meditation.

OMG MATT AT 2:19

2:00 minutes in its eddsworld....I love eddsworld

Thanks for the advice! Also, nice idea using Eddsworld to use as an example for “Love Yourself”

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE EDDSWORLD REFERENCE AT 2:06

I’m currently in a good relationship and am very worried that I’ll mess it up somehow, I’m watching these videos to find out what not to do

Open mindedness and the ability to think things through, even the things you don't agree with, civilly is a huge plus for me. I like people who are naturally curious and respectful.

loving yourself - *shows matt*

I think ever since I've been getting into phycology, I've been able to know when to back off or keep talking. It's been helping me be more welcoming and.. approachable?, i guess would be the word =)

Attraction is definitely more than skin deep. Physical appearance may be the initial spark, but what’s inside is what keeps you bound to each other. Looking back on past partners, they looked like the most attractive person in the world at the beginning of the relationship. Once I got to see the real them and realized we weren’t compatible, they no longer seem “attractive” to me. Human attraction is bizarre.

2:52 That was a bit specific...

Thanks for telling me! I'll be trying to change things that I connected with here. btw, 2:10 gotta love the eddsworld reference

2:29 I love how you used Ed, Tom, and Mat in this picture

My humility score is so much in the negative that it actually qualifies as self-loathing. That has to be pretty unattractive too (it was already talked about in a video about things that ruin relationships). I'm okay with that though because I never want to be seen as attractive again.

2:25 yooo Edd's word's

There is this I had a love at first sight moment. Yet, when I started hanging out with her, it all fell apart. She's very good looking and has this stunning look and slender body. After watching this video, I realized now why I'm feeling this way, because I don't see in her the three factors mentioned here on what makes as attractive. Despite this, I believe that she is just a reserve person and might be more open when we start dating. I may just not know her too well. Hoping for the best.

Agree with most of these except that when I was younger I was found to be really pretty. Of course most of us never see that when we look in the mirror but now that I am 68 ( I was blessed with good genes) I didn't start to look old until around 60. But life decides it for you. If you've had a very stressful unhappy like then yes you will look. Im learned to try to accept aging and be proud and show the wisdom you have earned by walking through life's path.

2:06 is that MATT EDDSWORLD?

You are LOVED ✨ You are STRONG ✨ You are ENOUGH ✨ Remember that. Love - Nat ❤️

1- i dont sleep much but i am not deprived, i might have sometimes bags under my eyes but for me is 6 hours of sleep enough to be full of energy 2- dont really know what to say about that, depends if someone likes how i smell or not, all i can do is use perfume, live in clean room and take showers 3- love yourself, well that is mostly impossible for me since i am traumatized and muuuuch more where i see myself as lowest of the low, but sometimes i tell myself "oh ok, ig its not so bad how i look" when i am in the elevator with giant mirror 4- not being humble, cant say anything to that, i wont be humble when i say i am humble quite alot so ye 5- ohhhhh now thats something, i smile only when i am happy which is rarely or when i see a friend across the street but else you can hardly see me smile and now i will say i am not attractive at all even if i was everything good that was said in this video. Bc if i was attractive, i wouldnt be all alone my entire life and would get maybe at least 1 compliment a year. btw turtles are amazing, if someone reads this, write "Turtle" in comment, thanks.

I love that the "love yourself" part is a complete eddsworld reference. Absolutely love it.

2:12 - 2:30, im so happy, you put Eddsworld characters in this video! i havent seen anyone put them in a video like this in so long 🥹🥹

I am attracted to someone I can have a deep and interesting debate with. 'What are your views on logical positivism?' is one of my opening lines.

I agree that some habits may make you look unattractive to the general audience. But, in your daily life, you do not have to be all good to go to be in action. Just be yourself normally. When you're under the spotlight, you're the point of attraction, be casual and as much well-mannered as possible. Keep in mind, you do not have to change your mind, thoughts and be a complete different person, just change the outer presentation.

I have noticed a little bit of all of those things however, I have tried to work on each of these things and improve.

“You’re unattractive because of sleep deprivation.” Chronically fatigue ppl: 😒😒😒 …shit. This Hit home & I feel bad now 😆

I was always so tired and I would at ppl like im dead and some kid had a crush on me.. Ill take that being tired can SOMETIMES to DIFFERENT ppl will make you attractive

Yes, I’m all of these 6 things. I like it this way. Thank you!

I agree with all but body language. Some people personally just like to keep to themselves, or not even that but find that way comfortable with seating. And some people are even into that type of posture and pose, it depends on whos perspective youre speaking of.

I never thought about the last part... My crush always hugs me and stuff like that and I mostly just stand in an awkward position when that happens... so the last part really helps! I'll try applying it. Thanks!!

2:46 i love the eddsworld reference

your voice is so calming

The body language part, I think, is the most difficult one, mainly because it's automatic and you have to be aware of it most of the time you're interacting with someone you want to feel at ease with you around. I find it specially hard when I'm around people I'm not familiar with, because I get nervous and when I'm nervous my brain automatically focuses on trying to ease my anxiety and my body language awareness goes to second plan
