Not criticizing mind you. You just seem to have chutzpah. | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 2/27/2006 10:06:02 PM | iwarrior-*sigh* Will there ever be a time where people can express themselves & not have others judge,insult,be rude or sarcastic to them? As far as the pic,I could say any woman my age that wants to but the truth is it started as a joke & test among my friends in here.I just haven't signed on in my profile to change it.Though not criticizing,your sarcasm & disdain didn't go unnoticed.Audicity?...Never had that said to me before but I accept your opinion.Sorry if I have offended you,it's never my intention to offend or hurt anyone.And no,I'm not shy but very outgoing who enjoys people.Is there something wrong with that?

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 2/28/2006 5:59:41 AM | Frankie, very nicely put!! Kind words are the best sorce of flattery!
Fisher..DPQ, haven't you learned by now that the really tall women are the really really sexy women! Just think, millions of women are spending a fortune on heels just so they can be like you.
I guess it all depends on the person. I've always loved being tall, frankly i couldn't imagine not being. I think the heels thing is because our legs look better in them, not that they want to be tall. I can't wear them cause i get nose bleeds at high altitudes :).lol but thanks for the nice comment.
ok i wanna know now too ...
What is a barberator????????????? | |

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make fun of you. I was just admiring your confidence. You're an attractive lady. Not a lot of 47 year old women have the confidence to post in provocative pictures. Again, I'm very sorry if I came off like a turd. Please, accept my apologies. I really didn't mean to be a pig. Here I complain about guys being like that, and I'm being no better. | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/1/2006 7:51:00 AM | i dont understand it ladies...
Looks are only skin deep.... Try to look beyond the looks and find out what makes him tick, his morals,,, standards,,,, intelligence, sense of humour,,,
Just be yourself,,,,, nothing more, nothing less.
sounds cliche,, but makes sense, right??

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/1/2006 9:28:40 AM | | Wow it seams like this is a problem for both men and women. I know personally I get nervouse and and can not approach a good looking woman. I guess that is why this internet dating thign is so apealing. No-one else sees the rejection. You can feel comfortable sending a message to a beautiful woman and there are plenty of very beautiful women on here. | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/1/2006 12:05:56 PM | Yes, it took me a couple of years to talk to a man I thought was attractive, figured he would turn me down flat and laugh me off. He started to talk to me and now we're friends, he's not interested in dating me but at least I'm over my shyness with him. I have a little more self confidence, but still nervous about approaching good looking men, afraid they'll take one look at me and . | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/3/2006 8:12:11 PM | | Such an interesting question. Hmmmm....don't we all have different tastes? What I might find to be drop dead gorgeous, the next woman might think is only mediocre. I for one am not intimidated by great looks, but sometimes by arrogant attitudes... | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/4/2006 10:08:50 AM | Definatly!! I'm very intimidated by attractive men. I would never talk to someone i thought was more attractive than me, its all down to self confidence, you either have it or you don't and i certainly don't.

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/4/2006 9:15:28 PM | True, no one likes rejection; but there is a difference between distaste and paralysis, my GOODness!!
Try it, Folks...just once, go up to someone whose looks you find "intimidating"...you might just find one of those lonely, nice people hiding inside, too. Life is short...Cinderella is a fairy tale...what are you waitin' for??
My two cents,  B*
P.S. - BTW, Kingfisher, thanks for the info re posts. I'm not Canadian, either; but I was wondering about that, too.
They are also under My Forums in the upper right-hand corner...hope that helps!  | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/4/2006 9:37:49 PM | | I generally don't care to date a man that's prettier than me, in my experience with them they seem shallow and stuck on their looks or just stuck on the looks period. | |
|
| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/4/2006 9:43:51 PM | I'm certainly no poster child for GQ or any mans' magazine for that matter. With that being said I kinda had to compensate for lack of good looks for a personality that I hoped would make a difference and balance things out for me. So I try and balance it out and use a little of what was handed to me at birth and what differences my environment and life had put before me up to now. With everybody here who feels the similiar affect to whatever they feel to be shortcomings during their life, whether it be looks and/or personality, just bring forward a little bit of those attributes that got you here in the first place and find a balance of what YOU might think can work. I'm trying, maybe its good, maybe not so good, but I am trying. Nothing to lose. In the end it will only cost you a little bit of time. Good luck to all of you.  | |

You're right. But what to say? What to do? They never seem approachable. They're wrapped up in their own little world. | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/5/2006 11:50:42 AM | iwarrior, I agree with ruralblondie on page 1 - chances are, the person you are intimidated by is just a normal human being like the rest of us and maybe even lonelier because people tend to make assumptions about them solely because of their looks. If someone seems unapproachable, they may have something going on in their life that has nothing to do with you. Example: I met a gorgeous man once at a party, I thought he was way too good-looking to even look at me but I got my nerve up, tried to talk to him once during the evening and didn't get much response. I made one final attempt as I was literally on my way out the door at the end of the evening and it turns out, it wasn't that he was too full of himself to talk to me, he had been trying to avoid someone else who had been standing near me earlier as she was the type who couldn't take "no thanks" for an answer. We ended up dating for about 2 years and it was a great lesson for me. Of course, there has to be something more to them than just their looks - this guy was gorgeous enough (he actually works as a model - talk about intimidating!) but he was so much more incredibly attractive when he opened his mouth and let me know what was going on in his brain and heart, that's what kept me going back for more!  | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/5/2006 11:57:29 AM | Thanks lovematch. I just don't want to feel like a dork y'know? I don't want to get blown off. Plus, I don't always like the way I look. If I look like shizznit, I don't feel like talking to anyone.
If someone seems unapproachable, they may have something going on in their life that has nothing to do with you.
I try to keep that in mind. It's like at the supermarket. Women just seem like their busy and don't want to be bothered. Plus, you never know who's married and who isn't. And, as I have said before, I think a lot of women are cautious. I could be Jack The Ripper, y'know?
I'll usually just ask a question to try and make conversation. I actually had a nice conversation with a girl on the bus not long ago. She legit looked familiar. At first she blew me off, but then we started talking about being mistaken for other people. She seemed pretty cool but I never saw her again. | |

| Are Women Intimidated By Attractive Men? Posted: 3/5/2006 12:07:21 PM | I am not usually intimidated by attractive men, only because usually they have little between the ears anyway..
The type of men who intimidate me are confident intelligent men. Not only am I intimidated, I am extremely turned on by them. If they have a killer smile...Im as good as toast! | |

Hello Glitter Gloo ..

Women have so much power and I never realized it until my late 20s early 30s...shit I"m already 37.....................YIKES !!! | |
