It's true that how we see ourselves in a mirror is not how others see us. Here's why:
The Mirror Image: Mirrors create a laterally inverted image. This means your left side appears as your right, and vice-versa. So the person in the mirror is a reversed version of your actual appearance. To understand more about this subject, visit Lateral%20Inversion.
Photos and Videos: Photos and videos capture a more accurate representation of how you appear to others. While some cameras can introduce slight distortions, especially with wide-angle lenses, they don't flip your image like a mirror does. You can check Camera%20Distortions for understanding the distortions.
Familiarity and Perception: We are used to seeing our mirror image. This can lead us to prefer that view, even though it's not how others see us. Furthermore, our brains actively construct our perception, and this can also influence how we see ourselves, and assume others see us. Check Perception%20Bias for details.
Asymmetry: Human faces are not perfectly symmetrical. Small differences between the left and right sides become more noticeable when the image is flipped. Others are more used to your unique asymmetry than you are, because they see you that way most of the time. To know more about it, check Facial%20Asymmetry.
