Here's the deal, physical attractiveness (looks, smell, voice) is the most important thing for a guy when it comes to who he is going to approach. Here's a scale I like to use among friends when rating girls based only on physical attractiveness:
5+ - Below average, but would have sex with.
6+ - Average, nice looking girls.
7+ - Attractive, pretty looking girls.
8+ - Very Attractive, model level girls.
9+ - Extremely Attractive, supermodel/celebrity level girls.
Surely, it changes from one guy to another, I would say the broadest general difference for one specific guy would be around the 1 point, but it's usually a lot less. That is, Joe might think Jenny is 6.6 while Danny thinks she's 7.6. In other words, beauty is in the eye of the beholder only to some extent - nobody could argue that a 9 level girl is amazingly attractive and deserves to be a model while nobody would argue that no guy in the world would have sex with a girl who's less than 4.
Now, here are a few important things to remember:
1) A guy would NEVER approach a girl he wouldn't have sex with, that is, it requires a 5+ girl to be approached.
2) After a certain level, I would say 6.5, looks don't really change much and other aspects such as character and personality begin to matter greatly.
3) Girls above a cetain level, around 7.5, look too good for most guys - so while they are attractive, they won't be approached as often because they seem too hard to get.
Generally that means, the girls who are approached most are between 6.5 to 7.5.
While this above is just a theory, after observation and research in the field, I think it's quite accurate and correct.
And why am I telling you this? Well, you're a girl, you know what makes guys attracted - make sure you rise above 6.5 - and by then you'll be relationship material to all but the choosiest guys around. That considering you have a great personality and character, and I am willing to bet you have. Excercise, healthy lifestyle, healthy nutrition, good hygiene, good perfume and some minor behaviour execrsises could boost your attractiveness to a desired level.
Being shy is not an unattractive trait in girls at all, it might make you less spotable, but it doesn't make you less attractive. So keep that in mind.
All in all, hope that helped.
You could message me if you have any questions or if you need something clarified.
Cheers and good luck.
You're not the only one out there. Without giving up on too much of my story that's not relevant, I can say that I'm exactly the same way.
Being in a relationship isn't about being desirable on paper, it's about making a connection with other people. People get into relationships because they relate to the other person on many levels. They have a mutual physical attraction, their personalities gel well together, and they see important things about life the same way.
If you don't get in any relationships, that doesn't always mean you're undesirable, it can mean you're unique and not everybody gets you. It can be hard to look at it that way and it took the longest time for me to truly believe that about myself.
Making it easier for yourself to get into a relationship means being a person that more people can relate themselves to. That can mean you need to open yourself up a bit more, be a bit stronger and more secure, be less beautiful, be less friendly, be more friendly, who knows. You can't exactly figure out how other people see you and even if you could, you wouldn't want to be someone else to get into a relationship anyways.
And since I'm in the same position, all I can really do is tough it out, grow stronger and better as a person, and just treat others well. You and I just have to become the best person that we believe we were meant to be. If you want to keep your dignity, personality, and individuality, you can only make those sorts of fundamental changes for the goodness of your own heart, not to be accepted by someone else.
It is all about confidence and charm.
There are some girls that aren't gorgeous or very pretty but they are confident and don't have low self esteem. Those kind of women seem very attractive because of their personality.
If there is a pretty girl with low self esteem, who hunched her shoulders, doesn't laugh often and never looks at people in the eyes when talking to them. Men won't find her attractive.
People without confidence seem weak. And men won't feel attracted to someone like that.
wow you sound just like me! many people always ask me why I don't have a boyfriend and I don't know really why... people say I'm pretty...and I don't have a bad body... but I have only had 2 bfs... maybe guys think we are intimidating idk? and plus one guy screwed me over... I am shy but only when I'm alone with a guy not with friends... I hate it when the sh*tty personality girls get the guys and the nice, kinda shy girls get screwed over... argh..

innsecurity is a turn-off, people in general make friends that are like themselves, we surround ourselves with people that are bubbily and lively. if your to busy being shy you'll get know where...i keep telling people on this site something they should already know...lyf is 2 flimsy 2 be living it shy and timid and waiting for good things 2 happe to you, Power, Love, Happiness, al come to those who reach out for it. Do you think romeo would have got juliet if he didn't seize his oportunity when it came? if he had been shy about the hole thing she would have probably just fort...cute guy. and moved on. lol
stop worryingabout other girls and why their getting relationships and look at yourself...ask yourself am I sumone that I would date? are their things about me that people could see as a reason not to aprach me?...
but ye, its all about confidence in yourself, looks 30% to do with it. you need to leant to love youself...and smile! I can bet your not the smiling type!...take care in ur appearance (not slutty) and do things that make you happy...its onli wen your happy inside will guys the flock to you. we can tell when a girls glowing. and its that glow that makes us run over...well that goes for the 'good guys'
My question would be what do you do when a guy makes eye contact? and what is your reaction if that guy smiles at you? It is very possible that you are giving off signals that indicate that you are not interested or your someone that has a boyfriend and not looking. One of the biggest thing that I do, as a guy, if I see an attractive woman and I'm interested is to make eye contact and smile. This tells a guy a lot of things right off from the start. One, if she breaks away from eye contact or never makes eye contact and ignores me then I continue on my way and don't give it a second shot. If she does make eye contact back and appears to be suprised that I'm smiling at her(and interested smile not a goofy smile) then I will say, "hello, how are you?" From there if she smiles back and replies back to my hello I will continue to press forward with more talking and eventually ask her out or ask her for her number or even give her mine. Guy's need a great deal of a sure thing. I'm not talking about sex, but the sure thing that she's interested before we will make the first move. It's the nature of the game. Also, don't under estimate your attractiveness. Many guys are as well shy towards a very good looking lady. I'm sure you are more better looking than you think. There have been a many relationships started from the simple, Hello or how are you...give it a shot...and be out there to be avaiable to guys to ask you out. Also...online dating has become a huge way for people to get to know one another. Filter out the liars and players though. Good luck. ;)
I dunno what to tell you except that I had your problem all through my school years. I didn't get male attention until I was almost 19 years old. Now that I've gone out and seen the world a bit I'm generally well-liked and I know for a fact that a decent amount of men find me attractive. So I just don't know what was wrong with me before. Don't sweat it, you still got time. Chances are any romantic relationship you form now won't mean anything down the road anyway. Just focus on you and making sure you love yourself.
i would say the reason why it seems less beatter looking girls have more realtionships is because that the guys they where with didn't so much as care for looks and maybe them looking less attractive to you may have been a turn on to another guy since eveyone is different. You can try this. Go up to a guy say somethin about him, a simple compliment will do and walk away you may feel stupid weird and embarassed but if you do it the the right guy he will ask you why you said that and just say that it interested you and you got a convo going and the rest is up to you.
Well, what is it you want out of what you call a relationship.. maybe if you are clear on that, way you will be able to seek out, or meet people, who want something similar , there by giving you a much fairer advantage then just choosing randomly.. Also if you know what you want in life it ames people who have similar interest drawn to you to you, & you really do not have to try.. Are you passionate about other things.. If you accentuate these things then the first should fall into place if your heart is into yourself , & those people & things you ALREADY care about - first .
:)
BTW.. When you say compulsive liar, what do you mean?
All guys have different things that they are attracted to and there is a guy out there I am sure that would like to meet and go out but that doesn't mean that you are unable to be proactive things to help a guy ask you. A key to all relationships is positive interactions with others. If you are shy person then you have less interaction with others and thus less chances for relationships. Find ways to increase your exposure to guys in activities and social activities. Practice stepping out of your comfort zone to say hi to people and making conversation. You tube and learn stuff that increase your confidence with speaking to others. Plus the more talents you learn the more you stand out. You have so much possibility just waiting for your good man to find and discover who you are and what you have within. 🙂
It's not a self-esteem issue. Guys don't require self confidence like girl's do. You are either dreadfully boring (meaning your topics of conversation are NOT interesting), or too seriously unfunny, or aggressively too abrasive, or just weird (maybe your socially awkward and just don't realize it?) Without more info it's hard to narrow it down. Good luck
My theory is that some people are very neurotypical. – They do not have to be prettier then you, just more easier to date.
The best advice I can give you is to be a fun person and to dress well. Not overly, just a nice dress now or then.
Besides that, it is satisfying to develop yourself. Learn to play the piano, read a book, take a painting course. Run in the woods. Make your life satisfying even when Mr. Right is not around yet.
So here's the thing, a lot of guys are also very shy, also the fear of rejection is real for a lot of guys. If you, as a woman, find that guys arnt asking you out, you need to be the one to ask then out. If you don't want the rejection, and it will happen, us guys have been dealing with it for ever, you're gonna have to try and read if they into you or not, or just don't even try. But if you don't try, its a lonely ass world, ask just about any guy. Its 2018, women need to take the initiative and do something. Or stop complaining about it. Not trying to be mean about that, but it needs to happen.
You are only 13 years old. How do you even know that "guys" find you annoying. You are probably three times more mature than them. I just think you are going to have to wait until boys catch up with you in maturity.
When I was 13. . . I had problems remembering to zip up my fly. The last thing on my mind was girls.
They someone else said: its hard to narrow it down from the little amount of info. But prolly just change who you're trying to talk to. Lmao dont talk to a jock about the homework or something lmao.
But no offense but it could be that you're ugly? No offense, prolly not. But I don't know. Word of advice... If They don't like you FUCK EM
It's impossible to say without actually knowing you. It could be any one of a number of things, including your level of self confidence, whether or not your interests are very niche, whether you have any personal issues, any hygiene issues, any attitude problem, etc. There could be so many factors. It would be good if someone that you talk to could give you some objective feedback based on how you interact with them.
Hmmm, maybe you are too nice? I don't mean be a bitch but maybe you are too timid or lack of confidence? Or maybe you don't make it out as much or you aren't as assertive? I don't know unless I had examples. I see your pictures and don't know why you couldn't date a guy. Maybe try to get a bigger circle of friends (get a new hobby or something) and meet more people that way.
shyness doesn't help...i was the dorky, shy guy in hs bearly got any fuzz, only had a couple gfs. And I'm not bad looking, I've always been fit and in shape... I was the hot but unapprochable guy. Now 6 years later older and more confident, the attention you get is amazing. Flattering really, so be daring woman you will be astonished at the results. Break peoples expectations because they only create lables to make life easier, not better.
Because every guy has selfasteam and pride if they get rejected it will make them look bad, personally I think their aprouch is awfull. be the higher person and ask them out , don't worry about the answer just do it and if they say no then what the hell go ask sombody else ( keep a gap between each asking out other wise you might give the wrong impression) but there are plenty of fish in the sea, ya know?
you're not alone hun, I've only been in 1 little relationship my whole life it was only 3 months and it was nothing, if you haven't found the right one.. it just means he's still out there is all, you improve the things you want within yourself to make YOU happy not anyone else, smile at guys at show a little interest, I'm a late bloomer but it'll all come together one day :)
Because of MGTOW.
A huge percentage of men ho used to go out and try are now too discouraged and disillusioned to pursue relationships.
The marriage rate has absolutely plummeted in the last few decades. Guys think the only way to avoid divorce is to never marry in the first place. If you aren't looking for a wife, why have a girlfriend?
Well let's put the physical behind us right now...your face is absolutely datable...I prefer thin but a lot guys don't...I hate to say this but I honestly think that you are going to have to move...go find a university town or somewhere with a larger gene pool...I know it doesn't seem like life should be this way...but you have a lot going for you and staying put any longer is just not in your best interests...o.O
well there are obviously guys who are interested in you and who do approach you, your just not attracted to them. So at this point it all comes down to chemistry and what your type is…theres nothing wrong with you. It'll just take longer than expected for that MUTUAL attraction to surface with someone...
You need to let them know your interested. Some guys are just asses but a lot are good guys. If you are too shy they will take that as you are not interested in them and move on. Take a risk. As the saying goes, nothing ventured nothing gained.
