This might sound like a very odd question to ask on here, but I am a bit frustrated! I am suppose to be enjoying my early twenties. I try to keep myself in great shape, educated, enjoy keeping my appearance acceptable, and dress to the best of my ability without over doing it. I can be very feminine and dress the part, but don’t mind getting dirty doing outdoor activities, etc
I don’t fish for compliments and people around me say I am attractive, with a well rounded personality. I just plainly ignore the bar scene, but no men my age ever approach me to ask me out because they go to the bars like a moth to a flame. The only guys who show an interest in me are old enough to be my father and have the “I’ll take care of you attitude” and I just cant figure out what I’m doing wrong! At the rate, I’m going to miss out on a great period of my young life or the girlfriend of a man who is twice my age! I am seriously thinking about moving out of the South.
Anyway,what kind of gal are guys looking for anyways?

Processing your request, Please wait....
Possibly, I would say intimidation? Or possibly you come across as high maintenance, and alot of guy just dont want to deal with that. Again, maybe they’re just intimidated by you, a smart, beautiful girl, and most men have a deep rooted control issues and don’t like to be shot down. it could be allot of things but that is where i would start.
Sounds like you’re on the right track, I’m sure you’ll find the man you’re looking for….honesty and sincerity are the main traits.
A guy weighing in here. Actually, this is a very common problem, and If I were in your shoes you might try casting your net a bit wider. You’re a great candidate for this site. If your description is accurate, do great here. I don’t make my living from my looks, and I’m a touch overweight — but I had NO TROUBLE getting dates with cute, college-educated professionals within 10 years of my age. Go for it – post a recent, honest picture of yourself, show a sense of humor in your profile, and they will come. Good luck!!!!
Men *love* women who take initiative in relationships. Possibly your great looks intimidate the guys your age. Take the bull by the horns and ask out guys that you like (as you say, you’re rarely turned down).
I can sing that song a million times!I once met someone at work, together for yrs. At times guys are intimidated by well-adjusted women. If that isn’t an option for you, you may have to do the asking. I could never imagine “hooking up” with some random guy at a bar and why I work part-time here.
Don’t settle! Good luck!
