My nickname is the "dateless wonder". I'm almost 16 years old and I've never had a boyfriend. I've never even been asked out. It's not that my parents don't let me date, is that no guy has ever approched me. I apparently scare people! IDK why, I've been called emo,cutter and druggy, but I'm not! My friends call me a Teddy Bear and say I act and look cute, but then I hear rumors going on saying that I'm scary! I am a flirt failure to boot. I don't like those kind of games, I'm straight forward and I apparently speak bluntly.... I don't know what to do! How can I be more approchable? I've been told by friends that guys have tried to flirt with me before, they would start walking up to me then suddenly turn away. Why do I repel guys? I really don't want to be single all of High School! Please help?! (link)
There are a number of reasons that perhaps guys aren't approaching you. Are you considered shy? People often see shy people as not easily approachable. If this is the case, try to break out of your shell and be more outgoing. Do you think you might come off as someone who does not have a lot of confidence? If so, you need to show that you have confidence in yourself and that you like yourself. Confidence (not arrogance, but confidence) makes people seem more approachable. Also, you don't have to wait for a guy to approach you. Sometimes guys (especially young ones) are too self-conscious to make a move, even if they might be interested. I don't see why you would "repel guys", unless you either are shy, seem to not like yourself, or perhaps you're just so darn pretty those guys don't think you'd be interested in them. Sometimes if you're just really open and show your personality (be extroverted!) guys will start to flirt with you because they get to see your personality and they like it. No matter what kind of personality you have, there are guys out there who like it. You just have to be open and very friendly so the ones who would like you know you're cool.
