How Come Guys I'm Attracted to Aren't Attracted to Me? What Am I Doing Wrong?

I'm an awkward, shy, yet quite confident, blunt and smart 22 year old woman. I've never had a boyfriend, although some guys had crushes on me in my elementary and high school years.

I've noticed that a lot of girls in my community are in a relationship or have been in one, and I'm just thinking to myself, how is it that I've never been in one or even been asked out?

I'm a girl with a cute little afro, who has brown skin, a slender figure, big eyes and full lips. I realize that I may not be attractive in everyone's eyes. People tell me how pretty, attractive or beautiful I am. Majority of the compliments comes form other women, either stating how pretty I am or how cute my clothes look. A few of my guy friends on campus do compliment me on how I dress.

Growing up, I was always a shy, quiet and kind of reserved girl, until I started college. I began to change. I've become a little more outgoing on campus; I began talking more, of course, because my job requires me to associate with others. I began to strike up conversations with both sexes. Although I felt more comfortable just striking up a conversation with another females, I began approaching guys I thought were attractive. Even once in front of my male co workers/guy friends, I'd flirt with this guy in front in me. I told him how attractive I thought he was and talked with him for a minute afterwards.

Although I was nervous, I've asked a couple guys out to get some coffee and to get to know them better. One stood me up and the other didn't seem interested. But once in a while, I still conversate with him. I began to think, what's wrong with me that no guy that I find attractive finds me attractive? My male friends/co workers tell me that I'm pretty blunt, direct, but not aggressive. Even one of my guy friends told me that I'm pretty.

What is it about me that guys I like don't really like about me? And how is it that even the not so attractive girls can get dates?
