I feel like I'm undesirable to guys?

[Anonymous]

I'm a shy, traditional kind of girl. Nerdy and goody goody in that many people know me and call me "sweetheart", "nicest girl ever", etc. I don't drink, do drugs, smoke, etc.

Not that those things make a person bad but hopefully you get what I mean.

Throughout my life I feel like guys overlook me a lot. As a kid I got no attention at all until I was about 17.

I have only briefly dated one guy and he was terrible. I picked the wrong guy, completely. He was a manipulative liar and didn't care about me at all. I was just an object to him. He did things like touch me when I didn't want to be touched, lie to me about the kind of guy he is, and said he wanted me only because I was so great but he was hooking up with other girls behind my back.

I have a nice body and I present myself well and I have worked so much on my shyness. I also try to be a good person and be a dateable version of myself. I dress really well and I'm much more outgoing and I even approach guys I like.

I've grown a lot. But I'm insecure about feeling desirable, especially after my horrible dating experience.

I do get told I'm pretty and I like the way I look. I've put my picture on sites just to get feedback and people rate me highly- 7 to 8 on average.

But I just feel undesirable somehow. Can someone please help?

There's nothing wrong with you. If fact it sounds like you have an awful lot going for you. I would encourage you to look inside yourself for your self-worth, and not to people outside yourself (whether that be guys or anyone else). You just haven't met the right guy yet, but you will. Don't get discouraged!

we trend to be our own harshest critics. take the opinions others have bestowed upon you and accept them. plus its a nice little confidence booster.

I'd have to agree with bertmacklin I would have said the same thing but he beat me to it girls tend to be their own worst judges. but there is a guy out there who will see you and think that you are a freakin supermodel. everyone has that one person who thinks that they are the most beautiful thing they have ever laid eyes on

im sorry to read that. i feel the same xD but i guess i can give you some advice may work for you
1- shying is good in girls but when a guy comes and talk just be less shy
2- if you like someone try to find a way to talk or grab his attention dont be like me XD

Mostly guys feel this way. Even worae for us because if we show any type of insecurity on our faces, we're overlooked. That said, I don't care that you feel undesirable. Work on yourself. That's what we're told.
