I know I am not a guy but I think I can help you here. First I think you need to read your question and this will show you why you dont have any luck with men - you are so negative about everything!
First of all, I dont like people who moan about their apperance and do nothing about it. If you dont like the way you look then change it until you feel confident! Now I am no stunner, I am 5ft 3, curvy/bordering on overweight but I still make them most of myself. I dont care that I have some wobbly bits on my body - I go to the gym, eat well and if I still dont lose weight then I just think so what, at least I'm healthy! Greasy hair just needs a good shampoo and conditioner that doesnt weigh your hair down. If you dont like your glasses then get contact lenses. Get yourself a good hairdresser and then some new make-up, learn how to make the most of what you have got.
I always think that once you are reasonably happy on the outside, then the inside will soon catch up! If you feel you look good then you wont be so quiet around men. And you need to work on being so cold with guys - this is the most offputting thing to them! A man wants a girl that is fun, happy and enjoys life. Not someone who is miserable and spends all of her time scowling. When you are out with friends, try talking a bit more, laughing more etc. This way, guys will see you having a good time and thing that you look like a fun person to be with.
And stop thinking all guys hate you - I bet some fancy you but they would never dare approach you because you look so unapproachable. I think that guy you contacted proved this - that you were not very nice to him. And I imagine your the same with all guys you meet. Instead of having this mind-frame of all men hate me, you need to start thinking more positively. Give men a chance, dont write them off from the start.
I bet you would never treat your friends or family this way, so stop doing it to men who might be interested in you. try treating them as friends - this way you will feel more comfortable and less likely to be nasty to them. And then eventually it could turn into something more than friendship. Give off signals to guys if you like them - eye contact is so important, little flirty things like touching your hair or little embarrassed smiles. If a guy gets some decent signals from you they will probably come over and talk to you. That is when you need to be interested in that guy - ask questions about him and his life. Let him ask questions about you too and be honest with him. Tell him any daft stories that come to mind when you are talking. Just dont be cold and distant otherwise you will never get anywhere.
I hope this helps and good luck!

Wow! Although you have written a lot here you've not really told us much, for us to work on. Have you spoken to your female friends about this, do you have any male friends, and I mean just mates, not someone you fancy? Talk to your mates try and become friends with boys so you can see how we act and think, as we are a very different breed than you may expect.
