I'm intimidating?!?

Question

Everyone says that they think a lot of people are flirting with me all the time. but they are to scared to tell me that they have feelings for me. How do i make myself less intimidating? im 15 by the way so don't sy im way to youngThanks!

Answer 1

Bring down the barriers you have by breaking down their barriers. You are either a very attractive girl, or tall and physically imposing, or, frankly, mean. But you don't sound mean, so the third one can be excluded, for now. What you need to do is make yourself more open, interact with the people that have flirted with you. When they are more comfortable with you, you should get more people willing to admit their feelings for you. When they see that the vibe they sense from you is not real, they will look past it and see your trueself. They may feel akward with you at first, but they should come to accept you. If not, would you really want to consider them as a future bf/gf?

Hey Meb,

Thanks for the question. People told me in the past I was intimidating, too. I know what this feels like. (1) Recognize that you are probably social and outgoing, whereas the people who like you may be more reserved. (2) Continue to be friendly and outgoing and take an active interest in people's lives. Use their names (hi John!) when you talk to them, ask them how life is going (how's that social studies class? Did you get that paper in?). (3) Don't be afraid to let other people know how you feel. You might have to be the first one to flirt or to admit "I like you."

With a healthy combination of all three, Meb, you'll find that people are going to be more at ease with you. Be careful, though - you might end up with a busy social calendar!

Good luck!

15 is old?? since when,,, 15 is young,, 20 is young, you have your whole life ahead of you, concentrate on your school and making some cash from having a good job,, go out in the world with a smart and knowledgable head on your shoulder,

it is human nature to flirt with each other,, it is what makes the world go round,

Answer 4

Easy, pursue them, it will let them feel less scared since your showing interest in them.

You see half of it has to do with being rejected, but if you show that you like them it's eliminates rejection for them! :)

Answer 5

then don't flirt back with guys you should just ignore all the attention that people give you so people will stop talking about it
