I always get compliments about how attractive I am I mean yeah I guess I'm flattered to an extent but I just feel like everyone's watching me and I put high expectations on myself to make a good impression and I get real anxious maybe I should just get fat or something I really don't like the attention. Does anyone else feel the same way, male or female (Im a guy btw)?

I hear what you say. I went out last night to a hip place, i hadnt been out in a long. long time i keep to myslef alot and i went with a prospect guy i like but as soon as he went to the bar i got my neck blown on chatted up and stared at. I find it uncompfortable like i have to check myself. I dont even wear skanky clothes if anything i dress down not be noticed most of the time becasue i just want to left alone and have a good night with no hangers on. I really feel for you i know whats it like im not saying im ms universe and thank god im not but i totally understand i agree that things are not that easy for attractive people and think of getting fat or something myself just to get the preasure off. Stay the way you are its better than being the other way becasue you would have more problems im sure. Good Luck :)

Yeah man, like all the time, it's such a burden being so beautiful!!!!
OK just kidding,
Yes. I know what you mean.
I was very good friends with an extraordinarily beautiful girl in HS.
She HATED the attention and the expectations.
She tried everything to make herself ugly, I swear.--While I did what ever I could to make myself the most attractive I could--no one would notice, she could put some red lipstick on and literally stop traffic!
She really let herself go as she got older and I fully understood why.
She hated the gorgeous thing of beauty for the world to gaze at thing, she just wanted to blend in.
You should learn to get used to being the good looking guy.
You will eventually get old, fat, bald and ugly anyway, if it's any consolation...

Gaining weight or neglecting other aspects of your physical appearance may actually draw more attention to you so I definitely don't suggest anything that dramatic to refocus others' attention.
I do suggest however that you take pride (not arrogance) in your appearance. You are blessed with good lucks and you should should not have to feel uncomfortable because of them.
You should also try to deal with the anxiety you suffer from the attention of other people because of your appearance. If you set high expectations up for yourself you are only dooming yourself to failure. You may need to talk to someone else for help on that.
Also don't be afraid to speak up if the attention is bothering you. I'm not saying to be rude, but politely voice your concerns/opinions/feelings to those around you. I'm sure their intention is not to make you feel uncomfortable. I bet many people you meet might be jealous of your attractiveness.
Remember: have confidence, accept the way you look, try to set lower standards for yourself and make your voice heard.

I've always wished I was better-looking, but I guess I couldn't understand how you'd feel. I'm sure you feel a lot of pressure. Here's my advice: The only person you have to impress is YOURSELF. Don't let anyone else's expectations get you down. Your life is your own, no one else's!

I don't see myself, a 44-year-old mother of 3 and grandmother of 5, as still being attractive, but men have a different opinion. Like my Aviator, I have red hair and green eyes, but I also have hour-glass hips and a natural large bust-line. Men swear I can't be a day over 30, but they are usually looking at my waist or bust rather than at me. It's very annoying when there IS an intelligent brain within my head!

No, I love it, if you're popular then you shouldn't be self concious or anxious, sounds like you are trying to brag if you ask me, for all we know you could be really ugly and just have made a nice avatar.

Well i would like to be attractive and i think i am. I'm pretty descent some what. but i wouldn't like it if i walked in a room and ever head would turn. I would feel really unconferable.

Use to get this all the time before I was married. Just enjoy it... Maybe you should get married. Or possibly try out for modeling if you're that good looking.

I am glad that I am good-looking. You'll regret it if you become fat. I still deal with women who are envy of me, and I don't care what they think because I have a good self-esteem.
