Is it true that guys are intimidated by hot women? As I’ve gotten older guys have stopped talking to me. Idk if I’ve gotten less attractive or more intimidating. People attracted to women is this true that if someone is really attractive how do you act around them? Maybe I just got uglier since my early 20s I really don’t know.

Are you saying you got hotter as you got older? Or the opposite?

Regardless, no, men are not intimidated. Many men don’t have a ton of practice ever since the internet age, I think.

If I’m attracted to them I ask if they want to date me then smile. If not then do a backflip.

I definitely agree with them being intimidated . They’ll hop in your dms like crazy but in person they freeze up. 🙄🙄

Not intimidated, but don’t bother talking to them (romantically) if they’re out of my league or conceited.

The conceited I get, and doesn’t fall under what I mentioned above.

But you being “efficient” is essentially just going for who you think you can get… which is settling a bit… because you’re intimidated by women you think is out of your league lol. If it wasn’t intimidation, the focus would be quality shots instead of efficient.

😂 I feel like I’m taking shots or trying to belittle you lol which is not my intention here btw.

Intimidated is the wrong word.

Men not experienced in talking to attractive women can get nervous / anxious and tongue tied.

If fewer guys are approaching you, it may be that you've gotten more attractive, especially if they are otherwise signaling attraction to you.

If no one is approaching you, you've either gotten less attractive or have RBF.

How old are you now?

Uhm that’s too young to be considered older. I mean an average 27yo F doesn’t look very different from 23 yo IMO. So I suspect them not talking to you has nothing to do with your age. Maybe you just became less approachable (smiling less, no eye contact, crossed arms etc)

No.

Lol 👍

Maybe I’m biased due to having poor luck, but why is dating so hard? Everyone just wants the next best thing and no one is ever satisfied. One argument and people sprint for the door instead of reconciling as they have “options.”

People on dating apps seem like they’re only on there to validate themselves to feel better when they get “likes” or “swipes,” but will not respond when messaged.

I honestly don’t think true love is a real thing.
