Do gorgous girls usually not get asked out a lot?

Question

So at my school, which is a small engineering college there was this really gorgous freshman last year. I have a girlfriend but I'm not gonna lie she's a good catch.

Great body, cute face, athletic, volunteers in her free time, likes football and star wars. She's at least not completley dump and nice to really everyone. All guys I know spend the year dreaming about being with her.

Now turns out she actually went to my sisters class and visited my sister while I was seeing my parents. I overheard her telling my sister that dating in college had become so hard for her and that the whole she's been there she has never been asked out. She literally said she was dying for a date with just anyone

Seriously? All year I heard so many guys talking about how they wanted to be with her and none of them ever asked her out?

Some do, some don't.  It usually depends on how outgoing and inviting they are.  I have some gorgeous friends who always have guys falling all over them, so I think that the myth that pretty girls are always desperate for dates is just that - a myth.  That being said, a great looking girl who is too busy, too shy, too snobby, too (whatever) will not get as many dates as a decent looking girl who is fun, social and generally in situations that lead to more social interaction.  Your girlfriend may have been too busy and wrapped up in her interests, leading guys to believe that she was already taken.

Yes, yes, yes, yes yes! I don't wanna sound self centered, but a lot of people tell me I'm pretty or attractive, but only about 3 guys have asked me out.

What shocks me though their is always some hot or unattractive guy in my face, either flirting or acting shy, but just about all the time they never have the balls to go farther than that/ask me out.

Older guys seem to do it a lot, but that doesn't go far considering I'm a minor.

I don't get why won't guys around my age ask nd out, is their something wrong with me, or are they just to afraid/shy =(

The prettiest girls I know always have relationships or guys trying to get with them. I only hear about this "nobody asks out gorgeous girls" phenomenon on the internet. The girls who get no attention are ugly.

I've had a few girlfriends. The best looking ones had never had a boyfriend before me. The less good looking ones had had a normal number of boyfriends.

Problem is, a lot of guys are too p**** to approach any girls at all these days. Even a fairly confident guy might be too afraid to approach a really hot girl.

It's because guys think the gorgeuous girls are taken already

Gorgeous girls get "complimented" a lot.

They don't get asked out a lot because of how intimidating they look.

If a girl has the looks, brains, success and personality.. people will believe that no mediocre person can just "ask her out" because she is clearly on another level.

To be fair, it's a small engineering college. Engineers are typically "nerds" (in my calc 2 class right now, everyone (except me) is a future engineer and admitted nerd) and, however hot said nerd is, nerds get awkward when they want ask someone out. I'm a nerd and holy hell, the first time I ever asked a guy out was the LAST time I ever asked a guy out. It's scary, man ;-;

jpinka · Answer

because she is so pretty guys think she's taken and out of there league.

now, your thinking of dumping your girlfriend or her. the grass is not greener on the other side. have you heard of the 20/80 rule? you have 80% of what you need and relationship you come across a girl who have that 20% you been looking for. what happens? you go after the 20% and realize you lost 80%.

up to u, hope she's worth it.

I think she is lying about that. If you are above average, average or even slightly below average - guys are going to ask you out. It's normal for any above average girl to get hit on more than once a day - count 365 days a year and then multiply that by 2. Maybe she wants people to think she doesn't get asked out because she's modest.

I guess so. All the all-around gorgeous girls that I know are single. I have a friend that sounds like the girl you were describing: smart, gorgeous and really nice and she was saying that she is going to start asking guys out because no one asks her out. I mean guys always compliment her but that's as far as it goes. I guess she (the girl you are talking about) is intimidating. They're a lot easier to approach in thoughts than in reality.

Intimidation. That's what it is usually.

We are so like powerful that we're afraid to be approached. I'm one of them and it's really annoying. we're human like you guys are and we'll talk to you. Just try. We aren't all the same rude btches that most people write us off as.

You could put one beautiful woman in a room with 50 awkward guys and they won't ask her out. Same if it were the other way around. People are just so awkward that beauty, intelligence and charm still won't make them ask a person out.

Suefit1 · Answer

Yup, it's all about your body language. Look negative or unfriendly your odds go way down.

Have a great attitude and smile your odds go way up. Now if you are just so intimidating I can see if working against the girl.

A guy friend told me that a bunch of guys think I'm attractive and would date me but non of them seem to do it. I'm an engineer too and I don't seem to be asked out on a date. ha ha I might not be gorgeous but I don't think I'm ugly.

unighted · Answer

i study engineering and I don't get asked out much, but I don't know if I am gorgeous. I would say it is because guys are intimidated by gorgeous girls. I don't know

toulouse · Answer

doesn't matter. anyone can ask out whoever she wants. so if an attractive person is not in a relationship. they dint want to be, they have not met someone they like,  or they have a sh*tty personality.

It freaking sucks big monkey balls dude :( I'm like " I'm not a monster dude, come closer" I've been told I intimidate guys but c'mon really? Where are your cojones? Ugh XD

MikeK · Answer

I disagree...

If beautiful girls are having trouble being asked out for being "too attractive," then why don't these girls dress dumb and down then? Don't do your hair, don't get dolled up, and you're problems are solved right ladies? ;)

tiredofwaiting · Answer

Yes and no a lot of guys feel intimated by an attractive  woman they think she must have a boyfriend or she is so out of my league.Or they are too shy to ask them out.But the cocky guys might ask out a gorgeous girl.

It's not just the pretty girls that don't get asked out, neither do us mediocre girls Maybe the guys are intimated or don't think they're good enough for her

kangaru · Answer

I am not gorgeous but I don't get asked out too. I think sometimes it is the body language that one has that others may not go near her or maybe theguys are afraid of rejection

Anonymous · Answer

I would say it probably depends on the situation. In general places, girls probably don't get asked out much. But in social places, I can see it happening more often, especially if alcohol is involved.

Mihikko · Answer

Maybe boys are afraid to get rejected or assuming that she had a boyfriend already. Or maybe that girl has a personality that guys get intimidated. It depends sometimes on the personality I think.

Tanisha69 · Answer
