is there something wrong with me ?
girls- do you do this too?
guys- what do you think of girls you see on the street that show they are interested in you as well?
I don't think there is anything wrong with you, but I think you are completely disgusted with relationships and with dating. You've basically become apathetic to it all, and I think that is very wrong. Relationships are a beautiful thing if they are real. Perhaps, you just haven't found someone that really peaks your interest! I, not to be conceded, have been told I am a very beautiful girl. However, I also am very very shy when it comes to guys showing interest in me, and it happens so often that I sometimes become bored with it...to the point were I simply don't care and keep on walking...is that your problem? When I say that you perhaps haven't found the person that really gets you I really mean it. For example, 3 years ago I was at a friend's party and as usual guys were looking at me, trying to get my attention. I just ignored them and kept on walking. I walked into the kitchen and right as I was doing that I saw the most beautiful man I have ever seen walking in from the garage. I looked at him, he looked at me, and his eyes literally sparkled with excitement. I could not simply ignore him, and he could not ignore me. He came to me and right away started making conversation. We connected so fully and so amazingly that we have been inseparable since. Three years have passed and we are now happily engaged! Yay!
Aww ! that is a cute story. I'm so happy for u.
i think you are RIght... I am completely disgusted with relationships and dating.. afterall you can only get burned once to feel it!
& another thing.. .when I settle for a guy.. I feel like I can do way better.. even if the guy is really nice, etc. etc.
so basically, I feel bad when I settle for a guy... its not wrong to be a little shallow right? lol.
haha. yeah I plead the 5th. I just get a bit coyish whenever a guy gives me the "elevator stare" especially when he's damn hot! but that hardly comes around. so I just smile back ;)
Guys are naturally the chasers of the opposite sex and therefore will make it obvious when they find a girl attractive. Girls want to be chased so will often come across doing other things but will give out signals to the guys they like to approach them.
If you are not interested in guys and don't want a guy to bother you at all, then ignoring him completely is probably right for you. However if you wouldn't mind a guy in your life, by ignoring a guy you like will give him the wrong signals that you are just not interested and will then move onto another girl. If you ignore guys it is then down to you and no one else if you cannot get a boyfriend.
So its up to you if you wanna change and be a bit more warmer to guys. Ignoring them is not the best solution in the long run.
Do you know any girl that has gotten a boyfriend by showing a random guy that she is interested? I mean like on the streets... I just don't know what 2 people can say to each other in that predicament.
Yeah I do! A fem friend of mine was having coffee recently and a guy approached her, she didn't ignore him and they clicked. A few of my fem friends have clicked with a guy through randomness. But with your situation it didn't sound like randomness was the issue. Its ok to ignore a guy whistling at you in the streets however if your out socialising and a guy you like approaches you, it doesn't hurt to chat. A lot of time people meet like this. If you like the guy then talk and see what happens.
Well yea, attention is good... but getting to know a guy... that's the annoying part. Apart of me wants to give a guy a chance but then I remember that if he does this to me then he will do it to other girls and I wouldn't want my guy to go around doing stuff like that.
so basically I think conversations should start innocently... don't you think ?
Trust guys? I'm sorry but there are way more slutty girls out there than ever before... way more girls that take no pride in who they are...
why should I trust a guy only so that he can degrade me and call me a slut after?
dont lie... I know guys call girls sluts if they seem easy or ARE easy.
It seems like what your thinking is way different to how your question was potrayed. I have no idea how the word slut has got into this matter. You have every right to ignore a guy you are not interested in. However if you DO like a guy, he likes you, he seems nice, what's the point of ignoring him? No ones saying you have to sleep with him? Talking to a guy or dating a guy doesn't make you a "slut". If you have had bad experiences I'm sorry to hear that but many guys out there treat girls nicely.
I only get girls checking out my eyes, but when I make contact with their eyes, it sometimes feels like a mistake because I sometimes won't be interested.
If I am interested though, I'll just give off a smirk or smile, because I don't think that I'd be able to spark up a steady and random conversation with someone that I just saw on the streets. Sometimes I wish that I could think of something to say to spark up a random conversation with a girl that I just saw once but never do.. When I'm not interested I'll just look towards another direction, so my face won't be towards the girl.
What happens after you smile at her, do you talk to her afterwards? what signs would she give that you know she is interested?
lol.
jw.
So any random girl that smiles at you is interested in you ? she could be smiling because something good happened to her that day.
I disagree. I sometimes feel more shy then other times so Then I won't smile at the guy I like that day. But a guy I like as a friend, I could smile every time I pass him because I feel more at ease with him.

Some girls are not logical about 'checking out': they do their best to wear the clothes they look best in, to wear a bra which pushes a bit up, gives cleavage, pants that are close fitting, they put on make up, all to look better, to be real sweet 'eye candy'' and when they're looked at some girls find it annoying, gross etc.
One would think those girls go through all those efforts only to make other girls jealous or envious.
The English poet John Keats wrote:
Endymion
Book 1
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.

But guys even check out girls.. when they are not dressed up. I mean.. c'mon... its not the end of the world.. .no need to overexaggerate. lol...
btw I really like John Keats... interesting passage. thank you.
Stop playing games. Guys are wired that way in their heads. If you don't want them to look, why do you wear what you wear?
Guys are just looking for a good time with a girl... and no I don't mean just sleeping with them.
They DON'T want drama and they don't want game playing. If a guy checks you out... you should be flattered.
Life is too short to play these childish games... geeezzz and women call men "juvenile!"

I think there is
Not to come off messed up but girls and guys do this alike but more girls I believe. Why can't we just be real with each other. I think it's a game to see how hot you are or something because my friend doess this and the guys that comes up to her are really cool. All that I can say is that doing this you could miss out on a really great person and find a total jerk or guys we could end up with some evil girl.
well I thnk that's cool and it boosts confidence if they think I'm hot. now the whole point of the short clothes I bet you wear is to turn guys on and make them look so don't ignore them and get mad cause it would be ur fault for that. you remember that now
Sometimes we make it obvious so that way you know that we're checking you out and to see if you reciprocate.
i think I make ti obvious some times to show the girl I think she pretty
I don't understand why you do that.
