I ask because I very rarely get attracted to men, so I am honestly not that bothered if a man finds me attractive or not - I mean, it is nice when it happens but I'm not fussed. On the other hand, my friend reckons that men in general tend to always want or hope that the woman will like them more - I just assumed that most guys don't really think that much about it, but she says her current boyfriend told her that men are always looking for signs that a woman is interested in him, so women don't actually have to make all that much effort to show a man if they are interested in him as a potential boyfriend. What do people think? Reply to this Question

 I think everyone likes to feel they are attractive. I know I like it when a woman is interested in me. My wife is different, she is a 10. She is one of those women that turns heads and other women often feel threatened by her looks.(she happens to have a great personality too) I can not tell you how many times random people have commented on her beauty. My point, she takes it in stride. We debated this before as well. She says she doesn't care about that stuff and it's not important to her. I argue that she has that attitude because she is numbed to this already. She gets it all the time. Average people don/t get this attention all the time so we might bask in the feeling a little longer.

But generally I'd say, the less sex a guy is getting the more desperate he will be.

 Most of us guys are DESPERATE for a woman - any woman - to find us interesting and/or attractive.... AND we hope that her interest will escalate in to a sexual liason..... It's as simple as that.....

 I think it just varies on the person. Lots of women feel like that, lots of men don't (and visa versa). It has more to do with your own personal security than gender.
