The self deprecation is more than bordering on self-loathing. Pretty soon others are gonna start loathing too. Figure it out and knock it the fuck off.

Note to noone-in-particular:
The saying 'Don't judge a book by it's cover' is rather naive. It's good advice, but thd rsality is that human beings are wired to make snap decisions on available facts. Of course, we may have the luxury of revising those at a later date. However our initial impressions and perceptions will form part of any subsequent decision making until we consciously choose to adjust a held belief paradigm.
So first impressions are important in human relationships as in advertising. 'Brand' is important: both impact and consistency. People will form an opinion of you the first time they meet you. Their opinion will either be reinforced or modified by any subsequent interaction.
What does this mean?
When you meet someone new, they will take you on face value - what they see/hear/feel will flavor their opinion of you. People will believe the self-image (brand) you project until they get evidence to the contrary.
If you want others to see you as friendly, helpful and fun, then be helpful friendly and fun.
If you want moody, romantic and mysterious then go Emo.
It's a tall order to dress in black, make cynical observations about life but expect people to instantly recognize the cheerleader beneath the veneer.
Ultimately you need to be true to yourself. Keeping up a facade is hard work and energy draining. Not to mention ths harm you do to potential relationships when the mask cracks ...
Does this mean having your game face on ALL THE TIME!?
Of course not. Friends love you for who you are, foibles and all. But having friends like that is the result of an established relationship over a long period. But if people's first impressions of you matter - and we're talking about strangers here, not people you already know - then you do need to be aware of the image you are portraying.
There's another saying, "Whoever would have friends must first be friendly". Think about the people you value and who value you. What does this say about your self image? What can you use from this insight in your first contact with others?
Food for thought.

Note to Self:
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to figure out how to love yourself NOW as you are. Only then will you be able to find reasons why you deserve to make the changes you're desperately craving. Disliking yourself, being disgusted, being unhappy... these things are self-perpetuating and you start to believe that you only deserve disgust and unhappiness. And rationally you know that can't be true.
Self, don't make me go all Stuart Smalley on you. I'll cover your cubicle in affirmations if I have to.
