I've been told that I'm pretty, but I don't get approached by guys

Why may this be?

I get lots of stares from the guys at uni, but that's it really.

Could it be that I'm not massive on the social life?

Possibly, you may also be in large groups of girls, or perhaps surrounded by tons of shy guys or perhaps guys think they will get shot down if they ask you.

Solutions
- Be alone around guys
- Ask a guy you like out
- Get more sociable

How are we supposed to know/ Some guys wouldn't have the confdence to approach.
You're probably really fugly and everyone is just trying to be nice. Or you could just have a case of bitchy resting face which makes you come across haughty and unapproachable.

Why not try approaching guys you like and posting pics would help.
It could well be that you're not massive on the social life. I get approached a lot when I'm out but not so much in everyday life, I guess the alcohol makes everyone more confident and sociable! Haha.

Could also be a confidence issue. If you're not approachable, you're not going to be approached. It's as simple as that. Make an effort with your appearance, laugh, smile, be someone who's fun to be around and they will come!

Well, I've not actually asked for compliments, but I've been given them! And without sounding arrogant, I know I'm above average looking!

Here's a radical thought, approach them?

Otherwise quit moaning and stop thinking you're entitled. Guys hardly ever get approached.
Pics or didn't happen.
Is there any point to this thread without pics?

Anyway, I would say 'pretty' or 'cute' is not what you want to be going for if you want to be approached.

OP, this is good advice.

Erm, what's +C?
Everyone is told they're pretty in this society which think it needs to make everyone feel good about themselves. It means nothing.

But I know I'm pretty. May sound arrogant, but it had to be said
Some girls are pretty without having sex appeal.
Nice to look at, but not really 'hot'. The equivalent of a 'cute' male.

Maybe you're one of them.

Ye and some girls are hot but you wouldn't want to go near them because they have a slutty look.

Whereas another girl is less hot but looks very smiley and friendly and you just want to go up and talk to them. < Instantly fall in love with those types lol.

You don't sound very nice from this thread. Perhaps that comes over in your demeanor.

So, you know that you're above average looking but yet you say that no one approaches you? How does that make sense?
