Why don't guys approach me? Is it my hijab?

[Queen4ever]

I hate that I know that guys like me but they never approach me. I often see guys staring, I receive compliments and I know a few have loved me but why do they never try to come near me? Guys are really nice to me and they treat me with too much caution... Is it because they are afraid to hurt me or scare me? Does my hijab make them afraid to break a social code by getting romantically involved with me? I mean all guys in general. I am not that much open but I am brave, I talk and joke with anyone when I feel like it. It is easy to talk to me and everyone says I am very kind.

It's the hijab

It's something else

don't worry love, you are just 20 years old, its not the end of the world. Give yourself some time, complete your education, and have fun and their is nothing wrong with a hijab, if someone likes you, it will not matter, but if you are looking for short relationships and casual sex then it will effect you chances. I have a lot of friends who still wear hijab and are happily married.

[manpower61]

Basically you are saying. Don't explore life because you are just 20 years old.
And a hijab will definitely not help with getting into relationships, unless you are looking for muslim men.

[Mariam99]

@manpower61 no, i am saying, that she is 20, not 90. she dose not need to worry about who she is going too marry. that is the final goal for most women and men even though they never agree, to find someone who would love them unconditionally, just like their parents. and its not me who said that, its science who says that.

[goddess87]

I couldn't say for sure because I"m not them, but that very well maybe a factor.

[Krumpir]

It is a hijab, yes. No matter how pretty girl is, I am not going to approach a "reverse minded" one (it's 2017, if you believe you have to wear that - k, bye)

[alihmd]

Do you mean that wearing hijab is wrong well excuse me but you sir are a racist think that wearing hijab make girls a reverse minded you have to read more about what is hijab

[Queen4ever]

Well first of: I didn't ask to be approached by you:) Second: I bet if we looked into who of us is less "reverse minded" that would be me because at least I have developed the decency to not insult different minded people:) And third... or u know what? I don't have a third because it really doesn't bother me and I know that not all people have accepted the hijab. It's ok, but don't be harsh with other people because you don't know other people's situation and ur comment could have triggered somebody's misery

[Krumpir]

@Queen4ever
@alihmd

Welcome to the internet you reverse minded mooslims! Girls can wear them if they want. It is super stupid if they have to ask about them.

You didn't ask me, you asked entire community about opinion. I gave you mine. When did I insult you? I said you are reverse minded. If you find that being an insult - was I wrong?

I am sorry if I trigered your misery, and if you knew me - you'd know it wasn't my intention. Why wpuld I accept hijab? It is a way of hiding your identity. It should actually be illegal.

[manpower61]

@Krumpir Amen to that!

[Queen4ever]

Ok, how nice of you guys!! Does it satisfy u to behave like this and join together against a girl behind a screen? u are so wrong, there are people who cover their hair/head just like hijab because they have cancer or for their culture. Lol u must think I am an outsider and vulnerable because I wear a peace of cloth on my head XD I could be just as familiar as ur moms and whip ur asses for that attitude! Lol, u said it hides my identity pfffft then u should protest hats, caps, shawls and everything that's placed on the head. seriously, bugger off

[manpower61]

Wauw, you are such a victim. You ask for opinions. And when you get it, you threaten to whip me figuratively as my mother.

Wauw, you just neglected the fact that the peace of cloth you are reffering to is a religious symbol.
Islam asks women to cover themselves and show their beauty only to their husbands and those included in their Mahraam list. So there is a strict rule set in place for muslim devotee's. A dress code like that dousn't match my personal views on how a modern woman (2017) should dress. Especcialy not for that reason.

[Queen4ever]

I am grateful for ur reply. I did ask what you thought about if guys feel like my hijab is a hindrance but what I didn't ask was ur opinion about the hijab. It's two completely different things. All I cared about was romance but you had to come here and spill ur thoughts on how hijab is reverse minded. you went out of the line and agreed with a racist against me? how do u think it feels when people always feel inclined to discuss how bad ur religion is when u are concerned about other things? It's really uncool. I just happened to be born in this family just as you. I am not planning on revolution anytime yet so spare the crap k

[manpower61]

If the hijab is your reason of your lack of romantic success. We are going to talk about the hijab.

(Or you could just blame society and not talk about taking responsibility for your own misery. You still have the same basic human rights like everybody else. And no one is forcing the religion on to you right? Right?)

[Krumpir]

Whoa you are a fartface... You are going to whip me? I'll feed you pork. Deal?

If you are asking questions online, expect answers. You won't like them all, but i frankly don't give a sh! t.

[TripleAce]

What do you mean lol
Girlfriend. Aren't you off limits. I think everyone knows you can't date lol

[Queen4ever]

Lol I think that's exactly the problem. Everyone thinks I must be untouchable because I wear hijab😭😭 The funny thing is that even muslim guys treat me the same way.

[TripleAce]

Ya for sure hahha
I make sure to stand a good 2 feer away from her not getting in her personal space

But then i met this one hijab girl and shit i wanted her so bad. Fell in love. Id break tbe rules all the time lol. Give her pen but brush her hand when I release it hahah stuff like that

She was so cute

But ya obviously. But why you wanna flirt? Are you guna date?

[QCpress]

its probably the hijab. When I see a girl with a hijab I think she is only into other muslim guys. I am not muslim so I don't bother.

[Coconut_Man]

Would you date a non Muslim guy?
I think a lot of men would assume you don't , so they wouldn't approach you romantically.

[manpower61]

But why would you wear a hijab if you want guys to see your beauty and approach you.

[Queen4ever]

I like my hijab. Guys (even girls) stare at me very often and I work out and take really good care of my appearance. So I definitely don't think the problem is that I am not attractive

[manpower61]

No sane man will try to engage into a serious relationship with a girl wearing a hijab. Unless the guy is muslim himself.
If you really still like your hijab and want to wear it. Then that's your choice. Unless you are pressured by your surrounding to wear it, then we are talking about a basic human rights issue.

I also like my pink leather boots, if no woman would interact with me while I wear those boots. I'd take them off. But I still like them.

[Queen4ever]

Why? Do u mean non-muslim men hate the hijab?

[manpower61]

I can explain why. But i never said non-muslim men hate a peace of cloth. Because that's just ridiculous.

Every non-muslim man will probably have their own reason. For me, I wouldn't want to deal with religious bullshit. Some people wouldn't want to deal with the conflicts that can be created with cross-religious relationships. But to answer your question: yes, it's your hijab.

[vague1]

I think other reasons guys don't approach is that the girl doesn't smile back , she seems serious

[Guanfei]

Maybe because, as a muslim, you're not supposed to date them and they know it, which is why they don't even try?

[Anon-ymous1]

Are you pretty? We probably won't care about the hijab if you're open to new things and are cute.

[Anonymous]

I think it is because of your hijab. As dating is not allowed in islam, they do want to mess.

[alihmd]

I want to ask you where do you live?

[readywriter]

It is most likely your dress. Are you Muslim?

[ACER-User]

cud b fear.

[Anonymous]

[Anonymous]
