I'm giving off 'stay away' vibes to guys and want to change that

Question - (23 January 2010) 4 Answers - (Newest, 23 January 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am a confident girl and I'm having trouble seeing why guys are not attracted to me. They never approach me or bother to look at me twice. However, the guys are not solely to blame. I will admit that I am intimidated by the opposite sex and it's only because I've had not one- but two- terrible experiences that both ended in rejection. It took me a long time to recover and I'm a little apprehensive about just throwing all of the confidence that I worked hard to build up away for some one-sided crush. What do I do?!?

just approach the guy, instead of waiting for him. trust me, i am the same as you. i would go out with my friends, wear severe clothing and fold my arms but wonder why they never talked to me! well duh, because i looked unfriendly.

so start with smiling, catch some guy's eye and hold his gaze for a minute then look away. smile at him. order him a drink, or just go over and start a convo.

rejection sucks, and i know it's scary, but if you think that in the scheme of things that's it's not a big deal if you are rejected by a stranger then you'll learn it's not so bad!

When you see a guy you like, talk to him, really get to know him. This happens to quite a few people, so you need to do a little bit of chasing if you really like a guy. Don't be afraid to talk to him and just really get to know him. You may have to make your way through some more rubbish guys but you'll find a guy who really likes you.
