I just don't understand why i can't get a boyfriend, not been big headed but everyone tells me how beautiful Iam and how well i present myself, but the trouble is it's getting me down, no man ever chats me up, is it because i look to what some say immaculate. I know I'm pretty but i don't think i want to be anymore. If i wasn't so good looking would i have a boyfriend? Or do people look at me and think I look boring.

ArmyMedic agony auntMaybe you are not as pretty as you think? You could be giving of an aurora of arrogance!

Maybe you need to stop hanging out places where there are guys also hanging out, for example bars the mall etc.

Actually join a club or group where you meet and interact with guys and actually get to know them, then they can see you for who you are and not just a pouty girl at the end of a bar!

This may come as a shock but guys like personality too!

Well where do you go to find a guy and what signals do you give out?

What signals do you give out?

If a guy is looking at you, and you like the look of him, what do you do?

It could be that you are giving out massive "GO AWAY!" body signals which is putting guys off from chatting to you.

Ask your friends what they think. They are the ones who know you. They can give advice on what they've seen you do wrong.

Good Luck!! xx

DoubleM agony auntYou will have a great boyfriend, hopefully a husband, lover and best friend someday fairly soon. Just be a bit more open and talkative with guys, and not necessarily the "hot" ones. Better to notice intelligent, sensitive and caring young or older men if you truly seek a loving relationship.

If you think you look boring try something new with your hair. New hair cut or maybe some nice highlights. Maybe men are intimidated by you and they think you are going to reject them. It could be series of things. But don't blame yourself, because low self esteem isn't good. First you have to like yourself and feel comfortable with your self. Because no one can love you more than yourself.

sugar_sugar agony auntI'm no expert on what attracts males. I can only note what I've observed, and been told by various men along the way.

Personally I've noticed whenever I go out dressed to the 9's, these are the times I am least likely to get approached by a guy. The occasions I've went out nonchalantly in jeans and a reasonably nice t-shirt (but still less dressy than most) are the times I'm blown away by guys that seem to be interested.

The key difference being that the latter outfit (and maybe even the demeanour that go with it) is much more approachable.

I have also noticed when I go out with my female friends, it's never the most typically beautiful one that is approached - it is always this bubbly little thing who always looks like she's having a great time.

Generally if personality is not a factor yet, and males are only judging on a physical basis I think most will tend to go for the easy looking option. Either the extreme option of the girl who's not leaving anything to the imagination, or just the girl that looks like a lot of fun, and looks approachable.
