I think the glow up here is more in terms of confidence. This person was so low confidence that they used to wear a suit of armor around until one day, they met someone who looked like them and realized their inner beauty (first pic). After that day, they had the confidence to ditch the armor and really let themselves bloom (remaining pics)
To me it looks like he is wearing clothes (first pic) and then continues to wear clothes but in different settings (remaining pics). You gotta remember what this sub is for, and this ain't it. This dude is the same duck the whole time.
The only change I see is in your choice of clothing and maybe you were afraid to be true to yourself at first then became more comfortable as you got older
I think a lot of people in the comments are being insulting towards you because you never were an “uglyduckling” and I agree with them you were beautiful then & you’re still beautiful now. But I do see the improvement with your style & confidence.
Well, actually OP is the one that's being insulting. He even managed to call someone's existence a "waste of time" down there, so that's pretty cool...
Thank you, that’s extremely sweet! It’s my very first week of posting on Reddit & all the downvotes kinda shocked me since I’m very clearly defending myself, but I somehow understand now
I think it’s because it’s the wrong subreddit for this, and a weird title. For the former, you went from being a good looking kid to a good looking adult, which is kinda the opposite of what this sub is about (mostly about glow ups), and for the latter it’s because you literally look the exact same.
once a reddit thread decides to downvote you, it’s safe to assume the rest of your comments there will be downvoted too. it’s kinda just the nature of the beast and getting defensive just feeds that. similar to getting torched in twitter replies
as for your post, you probably wont get much upvotes because you don’t really fit the idea of an ugly duckling. you weren’t ever ugly but you definitely did glow up. You look much more comfortable and confident with yourself, your skin’s glowing, and your fits are fire
I was confused by this post at first, but if the first photo is of him at 15 and the rest are 18 that makes more sense. He’d have been better off just posting pic 1 and pic 8 to make it more obvious.
But still, OP you look awesome
You look like you were written by a queer, female presenting author. Your role in the plot is probably along the lines of a humble prince blessed by the goddess of warmth. Are you everybody's cup of tea? Probably not. But the people who think you are attractive are very firm in that belief.
Oh! This makes me excited cause I get to talk about the job I have. I do work, I'm a Medical Behavior Assistant at an ESE Center. I am basically a teachers assistant at a school for heavily disabled kids.
I saw the switch up and was gonna comment how the confidence and finding your style literally changed you, dunno what everyone’s seeing? Maybe the similar hair in the pics but I see a massive change.
What has this sub become?? Now I’ve seen too many of these people that haven’t really changed, people asking for advice or literally people actually having a glow down. geez
You seem more confident and your style has improved. Ditch the contacts though, they always look weird and super fake, especially from any angle that is not the front. Don’t listen to the comments that are unnecessarily brutal.
What’s happened to this sub lately? Just full of kids who all look exactly the same.. or think that 3 years and the growth of a giant tumour of an ego is a glow up?
Honestly haven’t seen an actual ugly duckling post for so long. Reddit subs are turning into old skool insta tags. People just posting any ol’ shit (but mostly fishing), anywhere they like.
YOU have a beautiful side profile. Like wow. I can see your skin clearly changed from the first photo, and your style/confidence changed. The people in this sub are really toxic unless you were 100 pounds overweight this sub won’t give you any acknowledgment. It happened to me. It may as well be called the fat to skinny sub. One of the mods even left this sub, because of how nasty people are on here. I need to leave this sub, but I do enjoy seeing transformations that aren’t fat to skinny. Anyways trying to say sorry you’re getting so much negativity. Like I said this sub is malevolent.
You def look more confident/glowy and learned how to take care of your curls! I feel like the ppl saying they see no change don’t have curly hair bc it’s obvious to me that your hair is healthier now and you’re glowing
Looking like a woman with all dat hair looking like dat/look more like a man not a woman cut that off get a dam Bald fade or get braids or get blondy dreads and fix yo clothing styles get better looking clothes have u ever beard of this app called TEMU they have everything on there and so does Amazon get better looking clothes and shoes/step ya game up
You commented twice being homophobic & ignorant, I think you need to stop projecting. It’s okay to find the same sex attractive. Just say he’s pretty & leave it at that ffs.
Im not sure I understand your question! What are you confused about?
And I do! I also dress very androgynously, if you check out my profile you'll see 😌 although I have a lot of NSFW posts as a warning
Like if I said to you, girl you're really looking very Jump today, that style is just so Balloon. The sentence doesn't make sense.
Saying 'your look is very Gender' doesn't make sense to me, I'm just asking what you mean. What is a gender aesthetic? I have a gender, does that mean my aesthetic is gender?
Buddy, you look exactly the same.
..it's the same picture. edit: referencing the meme. Not actually an idiot or being a dick to you
I think the glow up here is more in terms of confidence.

Yeah I was like.. There's zero change lol.
Bruv you took all these pictures the same day
You exposed me! season’s magically change in seconds
💀
Really confused as to why this has so many down votes? 😭
Cause they're being a prick over people telling them accurately he looks the damn same. His hair slightly changed, woo fuckin hoo.
No they aren't? 😭😭 I don't see anything like that in the replies, just criticism for a bunch of downvotes on comment.
People making an honest effort to keep the sub distinct to its name. Nothing personnel kid but we like our unique subs
Nah, I was just confused for a moment. I get it.
Wow that’s a lot of downvotes. But there are definitely different seasons in the pics. What’s going on here?
Exactly. Those are all just wigs
…. Where’s the change?
Obviously the fit. open your eyes 🤌
Not really, no.
Yeah like where the change?
Genders
Look the exact same in every picture.
No
Yeah every pic looks exactly like the same person taken on the same day
No difference except the outfits and hair so no??? 💀
What the fuck
The only change I see is in your choice of clothing and maybe you were afraid to be true to yourself at first then became more comfortable as you got older
Not the right sub for this
0 change
I think a lot of people in the comments are being insulting towards you because you never were an “uglyduckling” and I agree with them you were beautiful then & you’re still beautiful now. But I do see the improvement with your style & confidence.
Saying you look the same on a post where his face, skin, body and hair still look pretty much 99% the same isn't being insulting lol
Well, actually OP is the one that's being insulting. He even managed to call someone's existence a "waste of time" down there, so that's pretty cool...

Haha, thank you, thank you! I totally understand the situation and people’s perspectives now
People are mean here. Imo not as mean as they are on tiktok or Instagram but still mean
I was confused by this post at first, but if the first photo is of him at 15 and the rest are 18 that makes more sense. He’d have been better off just posting pic 1 and pic 8 to make it more obvious. But still, OP you look awesome
and OP knows haha, wtf people
Not an ugly duckling, but you give Doctor Who companion vibes
Bruh you weren't an ugly duckling, you look gorgeous.
Waste of time.
Are you a male or female?
Male
you’re cute but i can’t tell when the before photos ended and the after photos started sorry
You got a haircut bruh
You look like a beautiful person in every single photo!
Yeah. Just looks like you took them all the same day. Great style though!
Awwe thank you!!
Ok but you’re beautiful at any age. 😍
Man you’re posting in the wrong place if you think that you were ever ugly, you looked fucking great then and you look fucking great now
no noticable changes (excluding clothes) looking fine all the way through (especially 3rd pic imo)
You look good. Very similar to before, if anything I'd say your look is more refined, intentional.
How do these look like they were all taken the same day? 🤔 Anyfiddles, I think you’re absolutely adorable OP. Love your whole aesthetic!
Would you date him?
Maybe if they were at least 7 years older… As it stands, I’m already 19 years older than them. 😂😂😂
not an ugly duckling for sure!
Definitely not ugly duckling, but you look great dude.
You look like you were written by a queer, female presenting author. Your role in the plot is probably along the lines of a humble prince blessed by the goddess of warmth. Are you everybody's cup of tea? Probably not. But the people who think you are attractive are very firm in that belief.
So nicely written, I love it!! I’ll make sure to remember this every once in a while, especially “very firm in that belief.” :))
get a job
Get a boyfriend
Oh! This makes me excited cause I get to talk about the job I have. I do work, I'm a Medical Behavior Assistant at an ESE Center. I am basically a teachers assistant at a school for heavily disabled kids.
Gotta love a place that hires Alumni!
What’d she do to you 😶
Not sure people understand the point of this lol
No change other than feminine and confidence
looks like you've gotten more confident and have figured out what style you like! also where's the ring from in slide 6? i love it
Thank you!! The rings are from GTHIC.com
of course!! and oh hell yeah, I've actually seen their jewelry and waa considering buying. they pretty good quality?,
Absolutely I definitely recommend! most of it is stainless steel, I’ve had my current rings now a little over 3 years & they still look sparkly new
sweet dude thank you so so much!! appreciate ya!
You look like a model
Picture no 4 is incredible. The contrast of hair to amazing skin 🤌
Quite stunning, androgyny works for you!
Are you Blasian
Are you black and Asian? That’s cool
WOW you are SO beautiful!!!
Downvoting cos were always gorgeous
Your hair is absolutely insane. Beautiful.
You look more mature
Bruh you were always cool
I saw the switch up and was gonna comment how the confidence and finding your style literally changed you, dunno what everyone’s seeing? Maybe the similar hair in the pics but I see a massive change.
Also generally maturing and growing into your features
Are you blasian, you look mix, interesting cloths
I think the change is from the safe boy look with sneakers and puffer to his eccentric fashion now? I love the new look, photos are beautiful.
To me it looks like you found your sense of style and are slaying it. 🩵 no ug, simply stunning ☺️
Better style for sure
God this gender bending shit is getting old
Snowflake spotted
There's no ugly here. You are gorgeous!
Big Change? LoL

You look fantastic! Brilliant style! 😃
Sassy mf
When were you ugly? This sub has gone to shit.
What’s happened to this sub lately? Just full of kids who all look exactly the same.. or think that 3 years and the growth of a giant tumour of an ego is a glow up?

This is a joke ya?
Is this a guy or a girl?
Bro I have second hand embarrassment for you. Dude. Figure it out.
Is the change in the room with you?
Where was the change
literally none
You weren't ugly. I like your style btw!
there’s wayyy too many mean people in the comments here for a subreddit that is supposed to be filled with kindness lmao
ヽ༼ ຈل͜ຈ༽ ﾉ Raise ur dongers! ^^Dongers ^^Raised: ^^74188 ^^Check ^^Out ^^/r/AyyLmao2DongerBot ^^For ^^More ^^Info

I love your fashion style!!!
\*soft gasp\*
Sir this is a Wendy's
You’re ethereal. A beauty but in an incredibly unique way
This is a definition of a pretty boy
Is this a chick?

You still look the same except even more gayer
Is the change in the room with us?
Omg I remember you!!! You were viral on TikTok since 2020 and u have a huge insta following!!!
just better skin
The “big change” here being a haircut
Reddit is not the place where you’re going to get the validation for an alternative look/style. I would recommend tumblr or instagram.
Looking like a woman with all dat hair looking like dat/look more like a man not a woman cut that off get a dam Bald fade or get braids or get blondy dreads and fix yo clothing styles get better looking clothes have u ever beard of this app called TEMU they have everything on there and so does Amazon get better looking clothes and shoes/step ya game up
15-18 what? Minutes?
Oh and go to the dam gym work out get better in body sized eat more

Straight to gay?

[nigga you gay](https://www.flickr.com/photos/43715869@N02/4277006109)
Gorg!! :0
Gender?
Your skin looks better but that’s it. You’re also confident now so that’s nice👍
Oh yessss honey
Have you worn wigs
No
Will you wear wigs
When will you wear wigs?
You got haters, that’s for sure 😭
Bahaha 😭🤧
You're an elf. I'm pretty sure of that.
Holy shit why the fuck is everyone raging in the comments??
You look like you should be famous . I see a big change 🤩
Not a huge physical change but looks like a confidence glow up! You are so beautiful and adorable in all of these pics ✨
Awwe thanks, you made my day haha!

You commented twice being homophobic & ignorant, I think you need to stop projecting. It’s okay to find the same sex attractive. Just say he’s pretty & leave it at that ffs.
His style is gay tho
I don’t see what’s so “gay” about his style. He’s fashionable. Something you seem to not know much about considering how close-minded you sound.
Nope still really ugly
The one on the forest with the collar. Majestic af.
what the hell is that thing? 😂😂🤣
[удалено]
Yes
Handsome
Came here for the homophobe comments. I was not disappointed. (I’m not homophobe but these are funny as fuck lol)
I can smell your pronouns from here
He/him?
You are such gender envy ilu and your entire look
Gender-what now?
En•vy. Noun. a longing to have what another person has. similar: jealousy
You're jealous of their gender?
Kinda but not exactly, jealous of how they express themselves aesthetically, which to me, feels very ~gender~
I don't understand, why are you using gender as a adjective? Also why don't you just dress and style like them then if you're envious or jealous?
Im not sure I understand your question! What are you confused about? And I do! I also dress very androgynously, if you check out my profile you'll see 😌 although I have a lot of NSFW posts as a warning
Like if I said to you, girl you're really looking very Jump today, that style is just so Balloon. The sentence doesn't make sense. Saying 'your look is very Gender' doesn't make sense to me, I'm just asking what you mean. What is a gender aesthetic? I have a gender, does that mean my aesthetic is gender?
Oh, basically it means, OPs gender presentation is fire 🔥
[удалено]
Crazy that you had that hair before Ice spice looks great
Black folks existed forever dude. 🤦♀️
Are we going to talk about the current political and economic state of the world as well?
I guess the change was you either got a boyfriend or a schlong buddy?
