I've never been on a date, I've never been kissed or anything, my dad says I'm intimidating to guys because I'm tall (5'8") and fairly thin, and I get good grades (about a 3.75), and he says I'm pretty-though I'm not so sure about that part. I'm not looking for someone to say "I'm sure you are pretty and I'm tired of girls thinking they are ugly when they aren't." I'm just wondering how much guys really get intimidated by tall, thin girls who get good grades and whether or not that effects your decision to ask a girl out

Update: I don't know if this makes a difference, but I'm in significantly higher math and writing classes than most of the guys I know. So are guys intimidated by girls in higher level classes than them?    6 months ago

NO, guys are not intimidated by brains. They are only intimidated by looks.

Well for me thin or to thin is not my type I do like curvy/thick however the girls personality means much more, to an extent looks only count a little bit, and I am unlike most guys in a few respects and more than likely they may want skinner to the point of seeing bones- supermodel types for me honestly supermodel skin and bones type don't do anything for me,but absolutely nothing wrong with thin, nothing wrong with good grades either a smart girl is a good thing especially one who can hold a conversation with out going huh or what do you mean every five secs, nothing wrong with tall however I don't know how many guys will agree or disagree with me I don't know if they want a girl taller then them, every one has their preferences in many areas whether it be ones looks, intelligence, physical features, and even personality.

I don't know if this is going to help you or not but I myself just don't ask girls out I have done a few times here and there in HS but with the results I had I smartened up and decided to never ask a girl out in person unless I really really wanted to which means have to be some extraordinary circumstance, like I would have to think she was a super girl. Otherwise it just won't happen but I won't bore you that's something totally different and a long story.

Hope I was able to help even a little

Height can be a problem for younger girls until the guys catch up - or you date someone older and taller. I don't think grades should be a problem unless you tend to associate mainly with the top students and that makes you hard to approach by guys who aren't in that circle. Some guys might be intimidated, but every school has a few who are smart, athletic and confident. So you should get asked out some at least. But no one is asking at all? Or do you tend to turn them down, while waiting for one specific guy? Do you have parents and big brothers who are also intimidating figures?

Question Asker I turned down one a little bit ago because he asked me over the net and I had never met him before. That's the first time anyone has ever asked. I only have one younger sister, and my dad is tall and could be intimidating I guess, but he's almost never around cause he works swing shift. - 6 months ago
Answerer Some guys have an issue with the girl having a higher paying job, so I don't know why not grades too. Maybe they don't want to feel like under achievers. Height would be more obvious.
If you date a shorter guy, it would be noticeable at a glance. But people would have to know you to wonder how he landed a girl who is smarter. The guy who asked you out may be able to offer ideas. He's at least showing an interest. Do you know more about him now? - 6 months ago
Question Asker No-after I turned him down we didn't really talk anymore. - 6 months ago

Well height and grades don't intimidate guys, no. Why do you not think you're pretty?

As far as guys being shy, there are lots of guys that are shy. I didn't have a girlfriend until I was 18. So it's not THAT uncommon.

Doyle My first real kiss was when I was 17 so I was really heavy shy. But you do climb out of your shell after a while - 6 months ago
Answerer I would say that I've become a little more confident. But I realized that we can't control what we like and dislike. If a girl is cute to us, then she's cute. If she's not, she's not.Not every girl in the world is going to find me attractive. It's not their fault if they don't.So if I get rejected so what? Think of it this way. If you ask 20 hot girls out, and 19 say no, what does that leave you? With a date with a really hot girl.To be honest, it really is just in the mind. Make it a game. - 6 months ago
