    From a man's perspective, and I hope this is helpful and does not come off as insulting in any way...

    Your current profile pic paints an image of a woman who thinks she is really something special - probably more special that any potential suitor thinks he is. Your facial expression appears to be of one of superiority. That is intimidating to men, and a turn off. I am sure it is not intentional, and may just be your normal expression, but the tightly pursed lips and facial expression may be off putting to men. Unfortunately, some of us have a normal expression that does not accurately convey our inner feelings - and this may be the case with you. Another example here. This is a woman who is telling me she does not want to be approached.

    However, this is picture of an approachable woman. In other words - perhaps a good amount of genuine smiles will make men feel more comfortable in approaching you.

    To be fair to the OP our photos are often not our expressions in a regular environment, however I get what you are saying. I think lots of us have this problem, as we are unaware of what we look like on the daily when not posing for pics. With me sometimes I think I am smiling in a pic and when I look I look mad. I don't know how to soften the features on the face I was born with.

    I get hit on pretty frequently, but only when I'm out with the girls/sans boyfriend.
    (Probably because the fella is a giant Dwayne Johnson-esque bald Samoan, and people don't tend to disrespect. :D )

    I don't have an amazing body, but I have an approachable face (which sometimes blows; 'please, tell me more about your 19 grandchildren while we're in this grocery store line..') and smile a lot. :/

    Are you going to meet with the guy to practice? Maybe he's not hitting on you in a sexual way... More of a respect for your grace and athleticism way... If this is the guy you are now thinking was flirting.

    Hubs says he was. And another was a bit creepy I thought.
    I really want to meet up with this guy he was really good and knew his stuff. He did Kind of wait until I was away from hubs and he was away from his wife to offer this assistance though but hey I'll take any help

    Closest coffee shop to my work is in a mall. I walk in, and I could feel all the stares following me to the coffee shop, all the way back until I leave the mall. And I swear I'm not walking provocative or nude. It's weird!
