    I don't think any guy is attracted to me. I wish though... :(
  • black men and old wankers.

    The most people I get attention from are black men in my age range or Middle Eastern men (the really creepy ones at the gas station). When I DO get hit on by white guys, they're normally...creepy...or older than I am interested in. (which says a lot because I love old guys!)

    It's a rare gem when I'm approached by someone attractive!

    I'm on the same boat Kels.

    Me, too. Black, ethnic, very foreign men are drawn to me. Some like the curves, some are fascinated by blonde hair, blue eyes. I dunno. The only white guys I was getting were very old, very young, or very thin and socially awkward. I tend to like beefy white guys though I've dated other races.

    Debt Collectors for fictional debt
    The mailman comes to my house 5 times a week
    Santa Claus comes once a year
    Squirrels
    ants
    Nigerian princes that want to give me money
    Salesman
    And I assume eventually I'll attract the grim reaper.

    No women though.

    Looking back at my life, I'd say the most common thing among the men I've attracted is that they were drunk at the time. So sad. LOL!

    I'm with those who also say they don't attract anyone now. I don't feel like there are any opportunities in my life, which is why eHarmony got a hold of some of my hard-earned cash for nothing.

    Edit to add: I also agree with the comment that this thread is full of funny!

    I tend to attract men who are in desperate need of psychotherapy. Although there have been a few nice ones. Timing was just not right.

    I'm a "good girl" and I attract "good, clean-cut boys". Which is fine by me! Bad boys are overrated! Also, most of the guys who like me (or I suspect of liking me) are pretty shy. That's strange to me because I'm kind of shy myself...

    Maybe all the men can answer why I just get stared at and not approached. Am I unapproachable? I don't understand why I will feel men's eye's on me soooo hard, and yet, nothing. They don't come up to me, they just stare. Weirdest thing. I'm the nicest and easiest to talk to person. I wish I understood what the problem was. I'm a makeup artist, so the majority of my days are spent entirely with women. I would like to at least go on some dates though, it's been a while and for the life of me, I can't figure out where to meet men. I don't drink really, and even if I did, I wouldn't want to meet someone at a bar, that's not the ideal location to me. At this point, I'm open. In the past, I tend to attract "fixer uppers" with serious mommy issues. Let's break that habbit, okay? hahahaha

    MEN, give me some feedback, por favor!

    I'm a woman, but I just wanna say that you are gorgeous! Maybe men are intimidated by your looks? I know around attractive men I can't even speak. Lol

    I think I smile, I'm not sure. I feel like I'm always smiling, I'm generally a happy person :) I will make more of an earnest effort to give a more noticeable and approachable smile.

    Hey -- you're quite pretty -- so why don't you just take the reigns and ask a guy out? Or approach one that is looking at you? Just do it... the only thing that can happen is they say no and then you're right back where you started. I think you need to take the initiative on this one!

    You have incredibly large and beautiful eyes. I'm staring at your profile pic right now.

    And yeah, a smile back would help. We guys are not the brightest people around. You have to keep it simple.

    Well, focus on yourself, first. Clearly you have honesty issues. There is no way you're a day over 30 by your profile pic...

    I looked at your pictures and in almost everyone of them you are dressed very nice, your hair is done up and your make up looks perfect - even the one where it looks like you're about to get on a plane. It kind of screams expensive tastes and high maintenance. I hope I don't get jumped on for that. I think you look quite attractive. I'm old enough I wouldn't approach you regardless but if if I was younger I would assume you were nice to look at but would be a pain in the *kitten* to deal with.

    I would certainly approach you! Sometimes it's hard for guys to start up a conversation with a total stranger. But once they break the ice, they are usually 'good to go'.

    You dress nice and take care of yourself, so I'm sure the right guy will approach you sooner or later.

    I agree, I'm not worried about weather or not I will get approached someday, I think I more concerned if I'm coming off as unapproachable. I mean, I do take care of myself. I handle my money well. I love my job, I don't drink or sleep around, I have good core values. I think that I'm just personally astounded by the fact that more men don't ask me out. but then again, where would they? At the makeup store I work at? at the gym? I always try not to make eye contact while working out there, I'm there for other reasons, maybe I should switch up my strategy...

    No this is helpful, I worry about this sometimes, I consider myself a class act, and I like to carry myself as such... but in an affordable manner. I am the queen of "the look for less" Almost everything I buy is on sale, you wouldn't believe how thrifty I am, I am a very smart shopper. Plus, I make my own money and I am debt free, I own my car and I have been working since I was 16. And as for my makeup and hair... Well, There's is nothing wrong in taking pride of yourself. I prefer to look and feel my best. I like to be the best, in most everything that I do. Not to mention, I'm a makeup artist. I'm literally paid to look good and help others look good every single day. It takes me a total of 10 minutes at the most to throw my hair up and enhance my features, it's second nature to me-I've been doing it for so long. You know... a pain in the *kitten* to deal with, perhaps I'm a handful.... I consider myself a girl who rolls with the punches, but I guess we would have to do exit interviews with my exes to find out the truth. I can tell you this much, they all still try to contact me, and maintain friendships... whatever that means, I don't know...

    I am never the aggressor in that sense. I need a man who takes control. I'm old fashioned, I prefer being courted by a man, not the other way around. I feel that the opposite approach has a recipe for disaster. Thank you kindly for the compliment and feedback

    I tend to attract hyper - committed "nice guys" who usually have similar interests but opposite personalities of mine. Really sweet, low key, usually clueless, not big on partying.... But ultimately a bit clingy and boring.

    Tough to say without actually knowing you, you're both pretty attractive but approachability has a lot to do with body language. I will say a smile can go a long way though.

    Body language? meaning? I smile all the time, I'm friendly and happy

    If you see a guy checking you out do you smile at him or do you get shy and turn away? Being unapproachable to me means that someone gives off a vibe that they don't want to be approached. Maybe they're shy, they don't smile at people or make eye contact with them, when they go out they only seem to talk to their friends and nobody else, they just seem closed off to the world, always with a group of friends, or I just think they are too attractive and I chicken out.

    More approachable people just seem more fun, confident, they type of person that would strike up a conversation with anyone.

    Usually if I'm going to approach someone I need eye contact or a smile, and they need to be alone or in a smaller group. It's tough to approach a group of five girls and only focus on one. Usually there's one person that does the most talking and it's not always the one that you wanted to talk to. It may not be you at all, just the situations you are in. Like I said, tough to say without really knowing someone.

    Not essentially the type you are attracted to, but what types of women/men always seem to like you. For me i attract alot of older women(35+), otherwise shy women (guess i dont make many nervous) and alot of really skinny women (even though i prefer my women thick) how about you

    My initial reply is "Um, none?" :laugh:
