We missed out on the greatest possible life in existence - that of an international male model

Got spotted and given a business card by an agent/scout the other day whilst shopping in TopMan on manhattan.
He came up and asked for height, weight and if i was from the US and such.
Unfortunately I'm from europe, going home soon and it doesn't really interest me, but sure it was a fine confidence boost.
Also i thought i might not make it all the way after all.

I've done modelling. Only streetwear and only really small stuff. Just did small shoots for lookbooks and never really made it. Gave up at 18 and went to uni after my agency told me the only real interest I was getting was from a japanese agency that hired white men to act as male escorts in japan and korea

You don't sound like you would have any fun being a model. You just want to feel better about yourself. But even if you were a model, and all of this applied, you still wouldn't feel good about yourself.

In the end, ego satisfaction is a bottomless pit.

If you were supposed to be a model, you would be a model. Your life is no worse or better than that of a model.

its the same reason lots of pretty girls are kinda dumb, they don't need to be smart to be successful or well liked.

they also boring af cause all they ever do is work out and go to shoots.

its super rare to find a model that actually has an interest in fashion

even at my agency most of the model managers dress like shit, it actually made me re think going through with modeling

the first digitals i shot they made me wear shitty fake studded converse from aldo, faded blue skinny jeans and a black v neck. fucking made me feel like a real goofball

the actual work i've been doing has been cool though

>you will never find happiness or enjoyment in your own life because you're too busy longing for an idealized life that exists only in your imagination

People are happy and unhappy in most every situation. The key to happiness is to feel safe, respect yourself and maintain meaningful, positive relationships with others.

To be honest though you do make it sound pretty sweet. Also typing this out made me realize I need to fix my life :(

I ended up working a summer doing it to make money for uni. £45k is what I could expect to earn a year without banging anyone so it was hard to resist. The best bit of japanese market is older women who want to experience dating as they've never done much due to them being so into there jobs. Did no gay jobs and basically just got to eat nice food and go to bars for free. Hotel was shit though

I was messaged on Facebook in grade 12 by the assistant of a modelling agent who said that she was very interested in me. The modelling agent was the mother of someone I had been friends with a few years before. I went for a meeting with her and I took some head shots and stuff. She told me in the end I'd need some sort of etiquette training that would cost like $700.00 so I declined in the end. I don't regret it honestly it seemed kinda like a scam. Although she did have some models that were making a lot of money internationally supposedly. It was a huge confidence boost nonetheless and helped me act more confidently.

Can't wait. The challenge itself is way more appealing than just getting stuff because you're pretty.

>> No.10293361

>>10293327

no quality agencies make you pay for anything. that agency was the talent-management equivalent of a pyramid scheme. good thing you avoided.

first it's $700 for etiquette training, then it's $500 for "headshots," then it's $1000 for "sending out your portfolio" etc.

Some qt at the beach was lurking around looking at people as if looking for something and then went to my place and asked my gf if she was interested in modelling
after that she asked me as well.

probably just for some shitty model scamming crap or whatever but at least she only asked us around so many people.
