Does being very attractive make you less approachable?

Question

If you saw a really good looking man/woman in a bar say, ould you be a little scared of approachin them if you really liked them?
experiences would be good lol!!

Answer 1

I'm forever having trouble in that area - I'm absolutely gorgeous, but nobody ever comes near me because they're all too shy ....... ! ! !

Answer 2

This is why I hate it when people say that if you're beautiful you MUST be ugly inside.

They say it every time to justify rejection or because they are scared to approach a nice looking person.

It usually accompanies the phrase "it's the person inside not the looks that counts", yet somehow they feel it's ok to put down the good looking person purely on those grounds!

Answer 3

Nothing ventured, nothing gained......always worth having a chat with someone but do so without expecting too much. Who knows though where a simple chat may lead and it is certainly an ice breaker anyway. Becoming 'familiar' with a person is good...if they see you on the street they say hello or you can say hello to them...slowly get to know them as a friend or whatever else may develop.
Best wishes, Mike.

Answer 4

Definitely, everyone is afraid of rejection and when it comes to especially beautiful people (at least in the eye of the beholder), it's completely 100% natural to be afraid of approaching them.

I go to this one bar every Friday and there is this one really super cute bartender and I could never go up to him and start macking because I don't know him and I don't want to freak him out.

I'll just keep going to the bar and maybe one day he'll talk to me.

Answer 5

its not about looks, its more about approachability. If you look you are easy going and walking confidently yet have an inviting demeanor about you you will bring them in. If you walk with your head down and your sad and miserable regardless of your looks , i doubt you will be approached as much.

As far as attractivness, Some 'shy' men may be afraid to approach a beautiful woman. Most regular men cannot control themselves and still try to make 'small talk' even if she is out of their league. They may talk to a person she is with to try to get to her as well. As far as approaching men, theres never been a man so good looking that i couldnt approach him. I know a very STUNNING man who liked me and i did get a little nervous around him, yet i was on the same level lookswise as him. But he was majorly into me and me into him so thats probably why.

Answer 6

Most people are intimidated by a good looking man/woman and fear rejection. Some convince themselves that a person that good looking couldn't possibly be single or not seeing someone.

We all hate rejection. Do it afraid.

Answer 7

Depends on how much I have had to drink. Too little then no, too much and probably no as i will make an **** out of myself, just the right amount and then maybe. But usually find that stunning girls usually have swarm of guys around them anyway,

Answer 8

No. Its the look on a persons face thats off putting. I'd be more likely to talk to someone who was smiling than someone whos scowling in the corner, regardless of how good looking they are.

Answer 9

being very attractive could make you less approachable (believe me i know lol)especially coz u would come across as very confident that u could look unapproachable and it could make them wonder why such an attractive person would be single. however, if a man is interested and confident, he would come up to u and ask you regardless.

Answer 10

For me it's easier, but a lot depends on the signals that the woman send out and the apparent impression of friendliness that she gives.

Answer 11

Yes. Where I live there are very few, outstandingly attractive black women...my BFF and I are 2 of them. Men comment, they flirt and they stare but we are both still very single, while our heavier, slightly less attractive friends are all married or headed there.
