Why do guys think I’m intimidating?

[jewels23]

I’m wondering why guys always think I’m intimidating. Is it my looks or because I like to talk and I’m happy and like to smile and help people? Just curious

Extroverts are often seen as intimidating by introverts, as most extroverts tend to be unaware of what introverts need to feel safe. It's common for extroverts to believe everyone should be like them. When a person's energy or intensity is high, some people feel they'll never keep up with this person, so they keep their distance.

When you want to help, give people a hand, not a handout. The more you do for them, the more they'll feel you think they're too stupid to do for themselves.

Also, people who like to talk rarely take time to show the other person their perspective has value. Reach out to see things through the other person's eyes rather than insist on being heard. Talking and communicating are very different. Talking is about sharing details, while communicating is about gaining understanding.

Unfiltered take: Your look is off-putting and intense. I am looking to get braces myself, and I'd encourage you to too. I'd also suggest toning down your look with more modest clothes and accessories (thin square frame glasses), and mono-coloured shirt/dresses with less neck. Wear your hair forwards at shoulder length.

It seems to be a feminist meme that guys are intimidated by women is a way of explaining why the said guys aren't interested in said woman. There are a lot of reasons why a guy might not be interested.

The question is too general. Can you give an example of where you have interpreted the guy as being intimidated by you?

It's usually because of you Girls Confidence, Most of us Giys can be Shy and we can find you Girls intimidating when your usually more Confident than us, So if you like a Guy just Approach him when he is alone and try not to force the conversation to much and just nurture his feelings and try not to put him on the spot so to speak, Because more than likely he would already like you because you are Cute and Nice.

No offense... there's nothing intimidating about your looks. I can't see how you carry yourself/behave around these men, obviously, so more information would be useful. When does this tend to happen? Under what circumstances?

Sometimes people can get a little overwhelmed by the energy, especially if they’re strangers. Use enough to ease someone out of their shell but not enough to overwhelm them. Once they know you better you can unleash the beast of overly extroverted kindness 😮

Sometimes wanting to help and talking a lot can come across as too much. Too in your face. And yeah, that can be intimidating.

Because you look like an ultra feminist bitch try wearing your hair down. It might work to get guys to talk to

I see nothing intimidating about you in this picture. Are there certain situations where guys are intimidated around you?

Your guess is as good as mine 🤷🏽‍♂️

Tough to tell based on just one picture.
