Depends. I'm single and my issue is I don't settle for anyone. Guys hit on me but if I'm not interested and say no. I don't want to lead them on or waste my time or theirs. Also I can tell when a guy is only lusting after me and one who actually has an interest in me. Recently I've been feeling pressure to get a boyfriend (aka boyfriend fever) but I won't force myself to like someone I'm not interested in just because family and my friends in relationships want me too.

I can sorta relate. I get told I’m cute a lot and have been able to get a lot of dates, but was never able to seal the deal.
The only times I ever had someone want to stay with me was someone who wasn’t attractive at all, meaning they used misleading pictures or they were just flat out toxic.
It can be a bit discouraging at times, especially when you see many others around you get into relationships all the time, even a few months after the break up while you remain single.
You start to wonder what’s wrong with you at times.
I'm pretty much in the same situation, except i'm a guy (so it's accepted we shouldn't get as much attention) and I put on weight, not lost it.
The general idea also seems I look unapproachable, but online apparently i'm some well above average guy who should do fine with women, when in reality i'm a complete & utter mess/failure.
Has it occurred to you that the problem may not be your appearance, but something else? It's not "life" or all those guys. The one common denominator is you. Introspection is called for, here. Ask yourself "If I'm all that, what am I doing wrong? How and why do I push guys away?" Answer THAT, and you're on your way.

what's your attitude? do you smile and laugh a lot or do you put up a front and argue? are you approachable or do you hold yourself in a negative light away from everyone?
I learned that if it works for everyone else and its not working for you, the problem isn't everyone else, its you. I had to fix myself, you need to fix yourself

I am not necessarily hostile however I have been told by people that I have a tendency to come across as aloof and unapproachable. They saw me in a different light once they got to know me better though XD
You sound like you want everything served on a dinner plate. Have you tried initiating, making a move, giving a hint. To those you deem worthy and see potential in? Maybe you're just perfect for those guys, but they have no clue if you reflect the wrong vibe.
I know it's easier to call men cowards, and boohoo I'm not attractive. Up your own game, tango isn't a solo dance.

Honestly you sound entitled as fk. You probably think too highly of yourself and send out bad vibes.
Guys that approach girls habe standards like everybody else they might not like how you look or just the vibe they get.
You can approach guys it's 2018 not 1968. Don't just expect things to happen for you.
Maybe you need to start the conversation, go up and introduce yourself. Don’t be shy. This is the 2010’s... If the sexual revolution was in 1968, then we’re coming up on 50 years. No time but the present!
My guess is you remain unapproachable. And the entire FI has made it clear that even TALKING to a woman is harassment. So you women have done this to yourselves. Ya get NO sympathy. Sorry toots!

You sound very entitled. I'd stay away from you myself.
I'd love to offer an honest opinion... but without seeing a photo and knowing more about your personality in social situations, it's kinda impossible to say.
Tbh honest someone who is seen as unattractive physically it's is hard to get someone we can't pretend it does not exist but there are times rarely when someone would like someone for who they are
A guy who didn't approach you, but people said he was checking you out.. so you know who it is, you might as well approach him and see what happens. Other tactic is to just start approaching guys you like, nothing wrong with that.
Maybe its how you hold yourself, you can be the most attractive person in the world but if you come across as standoffish then people won't approac you.

ahahahahahhaa, cold day in hell

You’re single it’s your choice or you can do something about it.

This reads more like a rant than getting people to understand what it's like to be the woman who's always single.
What have you done to meet men? if nothing then you can't sit there and say what's wrong. Do something and see where it leads.
I think you are attractive but so much so that the other guys probably feel that you're taken. Why don't you approach the guys for a change?
Yes! You’re right, some guys wuss out too much.
I am assuming by reading this that you are the problem here, sorry.
🖕🏿
That downvote and the response just proved you right.

A woman who is always single usually has 1 problem: aliens. It's the aliens and their lasers that cause this.
Nothing wrong with you at all. Go for what you want and don’t settle.
How do you know that? 🤔
Maybe its how you hold yourself, you can be the most attractive person in the world but if you come across as standoffish then people won't approac you.
