Caldus Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I think I know why it's harder for me to attract women. I still look like I'm 16 yet I'm 19. So they think I'm 16 or something. I kind of realize this more now and just kind of feel bad right now not knowing that before. Anyway, I think this is why I can't even get to the "friends" stage with other women. I'm just a guy that's younger than them and just someone to talk to sometimes. I'm kind of shy by nature. I used to be really shy but I'm becoming a little more outgoing but I realize that it's just myself to be a little more shy than outgoing. What can I do about this? I'm not trying to put myself down in any way but it's just something that kind of bothers me. Advice appreciated. Link to comment
hurtbylove Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 It's more personality that matters of course. I also look slightly young for my age I'm often mistaken for a college freshman when I'll be a 4th year in the fall. Hey looking young has it's advantages, a couple years down the line when everyone is looking old and ugly you'll still be looking good. Also it's a matter of taste as well, some girls like the boyish look, while others may like a manly man. Can't change what nature (parents ) give you so work with what ya got Link to comment
Caldus Posted July 15, 2004 Author Share Posted July 15, 2004 ...some girls like the boyish look... Thank you! That makes me feel so much better and more confident about this situation. That's just what I needed to hear. Thanks again. Link to comment
RagingBull Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Yeah, it's a problem sometimes. It's embarrassing to get carded in front of your friends. You look younger than most of your dates. People are shocked when they find out my true age. I look 5 to 6 years younger than I actually am. I just recently lost 25 lbs, so now I look even younger than ever. Well, at least the girls think I'm cute. Link to comment
meant_to_love Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 My very first post.. YAY! anywhoo If it makes you feel better.. I tend to like the boyish look myself.. Maybe because I look 14-15 although I'm 17 + I'm pretty short. I'm shy too but I'm tryin to accept/work on that too. Link to comment
Santa Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 People also say I look young for my age (17) sometimes. They say I look about 15/16, so it's not that bad. I don't think its that bad really, as girls might see you as cute. I know I get attention and stuff a fair bit, so I like the way I look. The toruble comes when you get ID'd. Link to comment
