I look good for where I'm at, really nice 6 pack but i've just looked in the mirror and my lats looked really small and I looked a bit more puffy than normal due to water retention. Will anyone ever love me?

I believe one way is to neglect your body image. Got a problem with your body? Ignore it.
I have been lifting 4 years and I am weak as shit, but I still train solely for strength as not to let my body dysmorphia fester.
I lift because I enjoy it, but I don't fuel my dysmorpia, instead I follow a balanced strength program and accept how my body ends up.
What I'm trying to say really is, stop working towards it, get a good body as a consequence of your training, not as a direction of your training, ya know?
Also it helps to have stretch marks and stuff because when you can't have the perfect body, you stop chasing the perfect body.
Examine some ancient art and find beauty in the human form. To admire the Hunan body in its rawest form gives you a great appreciation for it.
That's what's helped me. At least.
I don't think you should suffer alone, especially after the tragic death of Rich Piana, so this is my honest take to help you.

Go out in public and people will praise you autist. If you just keep to yourself you will only have your own opinion to go off of
