When a woman is so beautiful you can't approach her.

In Jr. High I got voted the Valentine Dance Queen & I didn't go because I was afraid it was done to make fun of me. At other dances nobody ever asked me to dance & back then it was the hall of shame to be left as a wallflower. I have never really gotten a lot of attention from guys except as just another one of the guys. I've been a tomboy all my life & always had guys for friends. I'm not fried dog meat but no raving beauty either; just an average looking woman. So, I've always assumed that the reason guys pass me over is that I'm not as pretty as other women around me. I'm OK with that. I just figure it's more that I'm a tomboy than overly beautiful. I'm still trying to figure this girly thing out. LOL

I read a report somewhere...and I can't remember where but it outlined that *most* people find the person they are looking at 20% more attractive than the person percieves themself to be. In other words if you think you are a 6 on the 1 to 10 scale then others probably percieve you to be a 7 or 8...(it certainly speaks to the reality of each of us being our own worst critic.)

An interesting concept to consider when thinking you are not in the same "league" as someone else...maybe that someone else is thinking the same thing...

you shoot...sometimes you score, sometimes not. That's the game.

Over the last several decades women have turned themselves into over-priced luxury goods which hardly anyone can afford, and which no one has much use for anyway. The more beautiful the woman, the more true this is.

Never have met a woman who was so attractive I couldn't speak to her.

I do one of two things when I think a woman is truly outstanding.

1: Nothing I wouldn't say to anyone else, except for increasing the amount of body language I use. Works great, actually!

2: Turn into Ric Flair. "Whoo, by god, what's the cause of all this? You and me,baby! How about you come take a ride on Space Mountain? WHOOO!!"

(That's a joke, there is no 2. I'm always myself. That's it.)

Men are their women who you think are so beautiful that you would be wasting your time if you asked them out?

No. However, I would think it would be a waste of time to approach a beautiful girl who looked like a total bitçh.

I've known a lot of beautiful women in my life, but I've never known one to be too beautiful to approach, or one who didn't want to be approached because of her good looks (or lack thereof).

Hmmm when is a woman so beautiful, she's unapproachable? When she comes out of the house and the guys are on her like the press on Brittney Speers. I call it quits then,.. nobody likes sloppy 116th place.

Ineffable Me said: "Maybe it's because of my cloven hoaves"... I can cut & trim those for you. Ive taken ferrier classes & have experience!

It becomes a matter of feeling and your gut to approach or not approach, and for the most part, a woman controls that whole situation.

If a woman does not give you any signals that she might enjoy knowing you better, or she constantly looks away or specifically not look in your direction, then you have your answer. If she is interested, she will let you know, and until then, it is better to respect her privacy and space.

To many do not do this, and many attractive women must put on a certain attitude in order to keep most away, and there would be no need for most of this, if men would just take the cues for approaching from women, and not do the bull in the china shop thing and hit on most around you......

If a woman wants to know me, or allow me to know her, she will let me know by smiling at me more than once, looking at me without looking away holding my eye contact, pass by me on purpose to go to the restroom or talk to another, stop and make sure that I know that she is there, look and smile, and when coming back she will make it a point to pass my way again, and once she does, and if she stops, I will approach her.

Many of us will not become part of the parade of men that walk up and try to hit on women, when all they want to do, is enjoy where they are, who they might be with, and if wanting more, letting you know that is the case.

Just my opinion.......

I hate that, women are not so beautiful that we should not be approached, you should throw caution to the wind and go for it no matter what!!! And if she is rude then she is ugly on the inside and why would you want that anyway, so nothing lost at all.

I run a website for other young women who have faced chronic illness. On it I have a page of quotes. This one is one of my favorites:


In my experience it is often the most beautiful who live with the deadliest self-doubt.

Linda Siversten


I spent many nights in my youth home alone thinking something was wrong with me. Along the way I have learned by confessions and acceptance that much of it was due to the fact that they were afraid to ask me out. Now I know that I am beautiful. I am not**** with it. Some people want someone beautiful who doesn't know. Some people don't mind a spicy woman with a little confidence. I know too that I won't appeal to everyone. I've said it before but beauty doesn't not always equal attraction. Chemistry is an odd thing.

The quote below that one on my website:

ACTION ALLEVIATES FEAR.

Keely Shane Smith


What's the worst that can happen? I love a man with confidence and will give him a second look because of it.

I've heard women lament that this happens.
"Don't HATE me cause I'm beautiful."

My friend has two sisters that should get an agent.
They would definitely be a sensation!
Both have 'man troubles'!

I found out in grad school when I was a teaching assistant that some female students in the classes thought I was attractive. The weird part was, it didn't matter if they were hot or not! It just depended on the person. Beauty is somewhat subjective, so the woman of your dreams may be just another pretty face to another guy. So sure, if you're good at approaching women, go for it, and if you're not, you have to be a little more creative to find a way to make her pay attention to you. I saw something on Dr. Phil called the mystery method, you may or may not like it but at least there's a site that gives some free advice about how to approach women.

I have been guilty of not contacting someone thinking he was just too damn pretty but usually it's a combination of things.

Most people that appear to be stuck up are really just shy. Many of these folks are really starved for some attention. I personally find beautiful women to typically be easier to talk to then most.

women, your certainly not helping the situation. she sees someone she likes, however is too shy to even look at him. her body language is totally inverted, -she sneaks a few more peeks at this guy who sparks her interests -however every time the intrigued guy glances at her, (trying to catch her in a stare, hoping for her friendly come hither smile) she looks away or down. -leaving him wondering if approaching her is going to be a futile attempt: is she shy, totally uninterested or just another conceited b!tch?

Singer James...how does one LOOK like a total ****? I want to try that!
I have alot of faves, but because I'm a serial dater, I give lots of chances. It's the second chance that is few & far between.

OMG Spumoni I LOVE your baggage picture. That is hysterical!!!

(Goodness does having a lot of favorites make one a serial dater? I've only been here a few weeks and only been on like two dates. I enjoy talking to people when my schedule permits and I am a complete insomniac. )

I've been told this every time I complain about guys. I never knew if that was the case though, or if people were trying to make me feel better since men NEVER approach me.

It's true that women like confidence. If you don't have it, fake it! But don't act arrogant- just act normal, and for God's sake don't use the 'pick-up artist' thing of insulting us first. Trust me, it doesn't work.

Ahem...Demon...maybe you aren't 116th place. What if you are what she wants but you back away. We can be approached by a thousand people. Doesn't mean they are all for us. She may very well question herself. Why don't the ones I want ever talk to me?

I literally just got this email. I hope he doesn't mind me posting his words (no names). It does seem sometimes we ladies have to contact someone we are interested in because:

Thank you for writing, you are correct in that men do get intimidated. Although I am sometimes, too confident, when I saw that you were getting "numerous" im's and email's, I felt overwhelmed and didn't write. I do like your pictures; I like your confidence, and I like the way you present yourself.


I ain't makin' it up. So what does that say? (Other than I'm going to edit my profile a bit.)
