I'm too quiet for that label and when I do talk it's never about myself or putting down others. I am very lady-like and I won't settle for certain guys. I'm sorry, but I do not want someone with no goals, dumb and wants to be a thug. Would you consider that "stuck-up"? I know everyone deserves a chance but there are just some people I would not like to be involved with. And a lot of guys throw that label at me and I tried being more outgoing but nothing works.

"Grounded" is really what you are.Stuck "up" is what they really are.

I would like to applaud you. I have two young daughters and I hope that they feel the same way. I am not a strict parent but a thoughtful one. I try not to force my children to do anything, but I make strong suggestions when needed.
I like the way they are handling their education, but as they grow older I am aware that things change.
I hope my daughters have the same attitude that you do. I do not know how you will handle it, but if I were you I would not even hang out where these seem to be losers hang out. If anyone is trying to force you into a relationship look upon them as dangerous, If I ever find anyone trying to force a relationship on one of my daughters they are in trouble.
keep up the good work.

it's not stuck up,just personal preference.i'm fairly selective and picky.i mean what are options for if not for one to pick and choose what we deem what's right for ourselves.i don't consider myself quiet or shy.the only time i seem like i'm quiet or shy is when i don't feel a connection or good vibe with the guy.if i do,then the conversation flows without awkward silences.some mistake the silence as being a snob or "stuck up" and it used to bother me that i was misunderstood.you can't control the way others view you but you can control the way you react and only you know who you really are,so false assumptions shouldn't matter:)

out of sheer curiosity, are you a libra?...i have known a few women who are libra's and they come off in this manner and it drives me crazy...i know better now than to believe that they are stuck up...i used to believe that about one in particular until i got to know her...she walked with such confidence and self sustinence that she gave off the signal that she didn't need anything from anybody, this can definitely come across as stuck up to shallow guys...if they have the courage to seek a true knowing of a woman, then they will put their short-term ambitions aside and delve into the most beautiful part of a woman -- her intellect...i am not saying this to gain points with anybody, it's just such a wonderful thing when you can finally understand certain aspects about a particular person that somehow transcend into a connection for other people...

Maybe you're not stuck up. It depends on what you're doing with the other guys.
I know your type, sort of. Based on your description I've met girls like you.
Here's the test.......what do you do when you meet a guy like me? I'm intelligent, but.....
I'm nice, usually quiet
I'm 5'10" (not tall)
I'm a teacher. (So I don't have a high income....even though I own rental property)
I drive conservative, basic cars and trucks.
I attend church fairly regularly and I don't enjoy the party scene.
I'm not particularly funny or social. I don't enjoy parties.
Do you think "geek!" when you hear that description?
Or "loser"? If so....you need to start asking yourself some hard questions. If you don't want the typical guy but at the same time you don't want a guy that's not flashy and won't attract attention.......then......you are stuck up and you deserve every bit of misery you've earned. If, on the other hand, you'd really like to be with a nice guy.......then.....they're all around you. They're called "geeks". Be nice to one, build his confidence, feed him good fixin's to fill him out, and make a man of him.
Best of luck

Life is too short to be stuck with someone you don't want to be with. Just keep holding out, Mr. Right will come along. I don't think you are stuck up at all!

You're not stuck up. You're the way you're supposed to be. No one should seddle for less then a gentleman. And guys these days are use to getting girls because they like rap. Rap videos give off negative ideas to people.

Chillin' with the wrong guys. But maybe your standards for guys are too high and you being too rejectful of other men makes then need to label you as stuck up.
If you are not attracted to them, why bother going out of your way to give them a chance?

Are you a teen. Don't worry about what others say. It really doesn't matter. Really.
No one kicks a dead dog. They are jealous.

Maybe to some...
Some may think that b/c you're not talking to a lot of people, you think you're too good for them.
Some may think that b/c you're not willing to settle for a looser, you're a goody-goody.
I say that if you being what/who you are is "stuck up"... BE STUCK UP!!! You know what you want out of life, and you're not afraid to hold out for it!! Keep your standards high... there are decent guys out there.
