hello acie girl!
i think i am like you who wants to see myself on the mirror! haha, i just like looking on myself, maybe that's why we also get along well. hehe
i also noticed what you notice, and i think the reason for this is that some mirrors do have a grade that makes us look shorter & wider...hehe and sometimes the lights also affects how we appear on the mirror and even how we feel about ourself for the day.
the mirror that i always like looking at, that no matter what i always feel that i look good are those mirror on the parlor & at the mall. hehe
coz even these mirror in the house sometimes i look good sometimes don't.
i think what we see on the mirror is what we feel about ourself. what e think about ourselves is what the mirror shows...
good day!

grades...i mean 'grado' some mirrors do have it that's why we appear to be wider in there....hehe
i think mirrors that they are using on the parlors & malls are really made up to make someone looks beautiful! haha im not sure, i just feel like.
coz its really so clear & looks so natural!
yeah, its because of the kind of mirror & its not really because we become thin or fat. haha you are just being conscious i think. try looking on a different mirror on the same day and you will see that on the other one you will look fat & the other one you will look slimmer...hehe

I think that sometimes mirrors can be dangerous if we look too seriously into them! Some people have been known to look at themselves and then think that they are too fat and that they should lose weight and so the begin to slowly starve themselves! This is one very serious thing that can take place. Otherwise, I look into the mirror myself and I'm generally pleased with what I see. I think that you have to look at yourself with respect when you look in the mirror, rather this than condemn yourself for not looking as good as you would like. I guess there needs to be a balance when gazing into the world of mirrors! Andrew

I also noticed it acie_21.
Hello there now! When I was a young girl I'm
afraid to see my face. I dont know why or might
be get shy when my father say hmmmm your getting
to be a lady.
Some mirrors I see specially lower prices I see
different on me. But I also see on it my fac get pretty
and beautiful in other time. It depends upon the kinds
of mirrors whether good or bad. So I can say that not
all mirrors are telling truth.

To be honest, the topic really made me smile. Not all mirrors are created the same way, some of them produce distorted images. Some make you look wider and shorter, while others make you look thinner and taller. But that's the extent of the illusion. Your skin will still basically look the same and your beauty will come out either way :)

Mirrors definitely does not tell the truth!! haha =D There are so many kinds of mirrors around to cheat!! There are long mirrors, to make us look skinnier, and those concave mirrors to make us look fatter or shorter etc etc.. haha =D
As such, mirrors can never be an indicator of how good we look!! What's important is that, we have the confidence in ourself.. haha =D
And sometimes, lighting will affect our image in the mirror too.. haha =D

I don't think mirrors can be fully trusted because there are mirrors that tend to make you look bigger and other mirrors tend to make you look slim. So, we don't really know what mirror to trust.

All conventional mirrors like you will find in an individuals home are going to tell the truth. However, there are mirrors in places like the fair that are meant to make you look different and those are telling a distorted version of the truth. As for me there are certain things that I am very conscious of and there are other things that I could care less about. I'm not thrilled with the way that I look and so I try to avoid mirrors much of the time.

Hi Acie,
Mirrors do not tell the truth all the time. There are deceiving mirrors. There are mirrors that will show your real self and beauty, there are mirrors that will make you stout and big meaning--not the real you...your real physical make up LOL.
I really love looking at myself in the mirror, i act, i make faces, i talk to myself--i am happy to always see me face to face.
seriously, it's not what you really see in the mirror that matters...it's how you feel when you see yourself and how you carry yourself out!

Mirrors are strange, because when I look into one, I always think "hey, I'm not too bad looking", but then when I look at the same image in a photo, I will think "damn, I never knew I was that hideous"

Every mirror shows me something different too! Some mirrors I look like crap but then I turn to another, and I look glowing -- pretty! I was wondering if it was only my perception, because I can see no scientifically explainable reason for this!
So maybe, mirrors all describe their own perceptions of truth...about you. Pieces of yourself, perhaps on the inside?
Throughout alot of cultures, mirrors have had the ability to open doorways to the soul, to capture the soul. So maybe!
