I attract.. teh smart estrogenated guys who are obsessed with adhering to the rules and give the look to people who go against them. Usually they are shorter than me and have a lust for "powerful" women who can hold eye contact with them for long periods of time and be able to discipline other people as well.. Eh.. they are all mostly older than me and more mature as well. This won't work out though because I lack responsibility and haven't been living an honest life.

I somehow attract the attention of men in their 40s or even older, and this usually takes place in my mom's bar where she works. I have no interest in these men, as I know that some of them are married or even drunk, and I don't see myself with a man that age.


Wait.. when we mean attract.. we mean intense feelings for such and such person? urgh... I have gotten the attention of older men due to my fashion tastes but I highly doubt that they would actually hit on me.

I can’t say I get too much interest from men but the attention I have been given has been from a variety of age groups. My boyfriend is fifteen years older than me but I’ve had people around my own age show an interest, I think. I’m not that good at picking up the signals to be honest! Interestingly I have noticed that Asian Indian men seem to find me more attractive than other ethnicities (I’m white, English and have quite a distinct "look").

None. Not one has expressed interest in me. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

It might be your belief, that they never never will. Maybe you radiate it.

Try an experiment. Turn on your inner actor. Take on a character, that is highly confident and think/say: "I am worth A LOT!"
What is going on in your bodylanguage and posture, when you say/think that?
Now, maintain that thought/those words, whether you feel, they are true or not, - take a stroll and see, how people react.
You might be surprised.

Mostly weirdos. Guys who think because I added them on facebook that it's some kind of offer at a chance at dating.

Then even if I'm totally clear I'm not romantically interested in them, sometimes they'll develop a seething hatred for me and let it all out at once and be kind of... weird and nutty about it. I mean I don't know a better word for that behavior than weird or unstable.

Also guys who think they've made it obvious they want to date by staring at me a lot when we hang out. Like... is that a way people say they want to date? I like words. I wish people just used words to express these things.

Ever thought that the men may not be able to do that because of the social setting that they are in at that immediate point in time? Especially if other people are there/may be listening.

Might also be to avoid being guilty of something like this, but in real life:

They can, they just choose not to.
It's a cultural thing.

Thank god in mine they will just be like, "Oye, I like you" - no matter who is listening. :lol:
But the gringos don't, they just stare and magically expect me to know like meems said. Which is annoying. And confusing. And awkward. (awkward before, and even more awkward when you actually find out)

Aren’t women supposed to be able to read all sorts of subtle signals in our faces, even involuntary ones?

Quote:
I can tell when you’re lying, ’cause your mouth smiles, but your eyes don’t.


It seems a very neurotypical ability, though.

But, seriously, isn’t telling a woman you like her just an annoying statement of the obvious most of the time?

Yeah - but we're aspie remember?
People mos as well be wearing a paper bag on their heads for all that I manage to figure out of their facial expressions.

Not if you're as clueless as I am.
It's a much better way to do it than trying to kiss me when I'm not expecting it and getting slapped for it.

I thought it was implied that the latter is out of the question.

In fact, I have trouble discerning which things are more out of the question than others.

This looks pretty much like evidence for what I said :)
