A psychologist has revealed the 'five signs you are more attractive than you think'.
It goes without saying that someone who is considered to be 'good looking' may not be to you, and vice-versa.
Attractiveness is, of course, very subjective and depends on person to person. However, Francesca Tighinean - an expert in physiology - has taken to her TikTok page (@francescapsychology) to provide a much-needed confidence boost to people who don't rate the way that they look.

In a video from earlier this week, the life coach from Romania, who now lives in the US, opened up about the 'five signs' you need to look out for.
Sign #1
The first sign you need to look out for, Francesca says, is the eyebrow raise.

Just don't be getting hyped around Carlo Ancelotti...
"This is known as the eyebrow flash. It can be a subconscious indication or interest or intrigue," she said.
Sign #2
When people go out of their way to help you, this could also be a sign.

"Because of the halo effect, where attractiveness is associated with positive qualities, we tend to subconsciously be friendlier and more generous to those we find attractive," the psychologist explained.
Sign #3
Perhaps the most surprising sign out of them all is if you never get complimented.

While that might seem to be a bit of a contradiction, Francesca said: "Three, you rarely get compliments on your looks and that's because people probably think you are already aware of how attractive you are and therefore they believe they don't have to remind you."
Sign #4
Another one is if people stare at you - it's not because you've got food on your teeth, or a stain on your shirt.
I mean it could be, but the content creator insists that if you keep getting looks, it's because you're attractive.
Sign #5
Being self conscious or insecure about the way you look is completely normal.

Unless you're a full-blown narcissist, there are probably things about your appearance that you would change if you could.
But as an attractive person, if you start to open up about your insecurities and people are shocked by this, then that's another sign.
"Five, people are surprised by your insecurities. This response often indicates that they view you in a more positive light than you perceive yourself," Francesca says at the end of her video.
