Why do guys ignore me?

[Anonymous]

Teenage guys confuse me, I don’t know, I’m in high school and I haven’t been asked to homecoming or approached by anyone, I’m not a model but I’m not ugly either, I’m trying not to stray in the pick me territory or trying too hard, but I’m not trying to be a not like other girls girl either, I admit im quiet and kind of shy but I act bubbly and extroverted around people I warm up to, I try not to be mean to others but I’m not sure why I get ignored

Honestly that’s really hard to say. I’d say a pic would help a lot. Most people have a different view of themselves compared to what reality really is. Especially when they aren’t willing to accept truth. Being extroverted may be the reason why they don’t approach you. I get that you’re extroverted around people you warm up to which is probably how you are w friends. So these boys may notice that, which maybe they don’t like even though you say you’re shy. They may only see that extroversion part of you.

A lot of people actually called me shy and quiet in my life and I only just started to try to be more “extroverted” this year and I am the “quiet kid” sitting in the back of the class usually

Again hard to say w out a pic. Plus a lot of men are shy. On top of that society today has basically shamed men for everything we do so men aren’t approaching women like they did in the past.

It' coz you are introvert somewhere you didn't know to talk with strangers. You overthink more i guess and that's not your problem. Coz I am like this people think that I am mean but I can't do anything that's how I am.

I am introvert, less speaking, less outgoing guy

I have experience in this whole “why aren’t boys asking me out” thing and looking back at high school, it was because I was harder to approach because I, like you, was shy and quiet. Also having a guy friend who I constantly hugged and held hands with didn’t help either because that caused rumors that him and I were dating (he’s gay though so nothing like that ever happened).

I am sure you are not being ignored. Don't assume anything just because guys don't approach you.

Not many girls talk to me either other than the occasional compliment on my artwork in art class 😅

It's probably the shy thing. I noticed that when I was in school, I was more likely to talk to girls that were more talkative.

Go to the homecoming anyways, I feel like others will do the same and seeing you alone might stand out to someone, so worst case go alone.

Why's it up to him to make the first move? Most guys do not mind being approached by women.

GUYS ARE MORE SHY THEN YOU THINK

[Asker]

I don’t think that’s the case because the boys in my school (most of them at least) are quite extroverted and loud

Try and be more outgoing.
