Ross MwcFan Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I'm not talking about clubs or bars, but more like when you're out on the street, in a supermarket, or at work or whatever. When see a man you find attractive, how often do you react, like giving them the look, or smiling, or doing a double take, or whatever?
ASG Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I honestly almost never notice. So not very often. I tend to be very much in my own world if walking around/doing errands
orangelady Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I walk in the opposite direction. Because attractive men only want hot girls. So I'm not interested to know them.
conehead Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I honestly almost never notice. So not very often. I tend to be very much in my own world if walking around/doing errands Same her but my friend on the other hand notices them almost evrytime we hang out. Shed go 'that guy was cute wasn't he?' And id say 'what guy?' And shed say 'the guy who just walked right past us!' I never notice
jane100 Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I never did when I was young. But now I am of a certain age I do occasionally smile, stare, etc, perhaps i am more confident, perhaps i just think: - why not, its part of life's joys.
Shaun-Dro Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I walk in the opposite direction. Because attractive men only want hot girls. So I'm not interested to know them. Nooooooo . Typical female.
BiscuitXOXO Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I honestly almost never notice. So not very often. I tend to be very much in my own world if walking around/doing errands I am usually this way too, except on occasion, when I'm in the mood, I do look around. Then yes, I smile, double-take, nod, whatever.
Stung Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I don't usually notice. I mean, for one thing I tend to be in my own little world, listening to music, thinking about my own junk. Also I pass guys who are objectively attractive fairly often, but there's no context for me so it's not a big deal; I don't really start to think someone is "hot" until I know more about them, how they move and sound and behave. I can only think of two times in the past maybe five years when I just passed a guy on the street and felt a little zing of attraction for no contextual reason, just looked and thought, "Yum." I can't explain it, maybe it was pheromonal. Since I'm married I didn't react at all, just let it go--although I used to occasionally smile or do the double-take or sidle closer or even approach under those kinds of "Internal Zing" circumstances when I was single and in my mid-to-later 20s, old enough to feel more confident about my dynamics with men.
Darren Taylor Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 They react. It's human nature. 99% obviously won't be using any Will Smith pickup lines, but the majority will either smile or turn away and then look.
BiscuitXOXO Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I don't really start to think someone is "hot" until I know more about them, how they move and sound and behave. Yea agree with this. This guy who formed a chem study group for finals wasn't that attractive when I first saw him on Sunday(acne, funny shaped head LMAO.) But over the course of 2 hrs, when I learned more about him, I would gladly go :love: all day. It makes me really look forward to studying more chemistry...
cerridwen Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I honestly almost never notice. So not very often. I tend to be very much in my own world if walking around/doing errands ^Same. There have been exceptions. Depending on his look I'll purposely avoid looking or I'll secretly admire from say, behind the oranges at the grocery store.
ASG Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Same her but my friend on the other hand notices them almost evrytime we hang out. Shed go 'that guy was cute wasn't he?' And id say 'what guy?' And shed say 'the guy who just walked right past us!' I never notice Yeah, that's me, everytime some friend goes "UHHH HOT GUY!" I go "where?!?!?!" And I miss it, everytime, cause they're gone when I look LOL. Sometimes I wonder if they're just winding me up! eheheh
NoMagicBullet Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I honestly almost never notice. So not very often. I tend to be very much in my own world if walking around/doing errands Yeah, I'm usually in my own world, too. Walking around shopping or something, I tend to just see people as people that I have to move around to get business done. Sometimes I'll notice a guy, but he may not be looking my way to smile at him, etc, and at that moment, I might not have my act together enough to think to do it. But just yesterday I did smile at a store security guard and ask him how things were going. He was working, though, and all professional and serious-looking, so I didn't chat him up further.
denise_xo Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I'm not talking about clubs or bars, but more like when you're out on the street, in a supermarket, or at work or whatever. When see a man you find attractive, how often do you react, like giving them the look, or smiling, or doing a double take, or whatever? Extremely rare, it hardly ever happens. Today was an exception when I was out shopping for a pair of trousers and I was struck by the delicate beauty of this man who worked in the shop. I didn't do anything except taking a few seconds to admire him when he was looking the other way
Lil1 Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 When I see a handsome man I know my eyes light up! I just can't help it and it is a natural reaction for me. If he sees me or acknowledges me in any way (smile, direct eye contact, a nod, whatever it is), I blush and look away and occasionally glance at him
famke Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I'll look when I'm happy, when I'm having a good time, when I'm having fun with my friends. When I'm busy, stressed etc. I won;t even look twice. And when he's with his girlfriend/wife, I don't wanna look either. You know that he's taken anyway..
Author Ross MwcFan Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 So from what I've read, it seems like maybe it's more common, that if women do react, they'll usually look and admire him, when he isn't looking? I've caught a few women, just sort of stood or sat there looking at me. Some of them have been really hot though, so I can't imagine they were interested. Do you think there could be any other reason for why they were doing this? Do some people just stare at other people, just because?

Maybe you should ask them than ask a ton of people on here who weren't there to stare at you. You should take risks because questions like these can't be answered on LS.

Even if I did ask them and they were looking because they did find me attractive, it's hardly likely that they'd admit it.
emmyd Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I'm totally a double taker... especially if they are smiling or seem happier. But i am twice as likely to smile or give them a look if they seemed to have noticed me as well...

You have nothing to lose. I'll tell you a story. One time, I stared at a guy...because I thought he was cute. This guy was in the same class as me (this was a longgggggg time ago). And do you know what he said to me? "What you lookin' at?" I felt so hurt. Obviously, he didn't think much of me. But at least I knew he was a jerk and I stopped having a crush on him. Anyways, you could say something like "Hi" and see what she says. If she says "HI" or smiles back, you know she wants to be a friend. If she doesn't, just WALK AWAY. Will you die because of it? No.

Author Ross MwcFan Posted May 11, 2011 Author Posted May 11, 2011 Why wouldn't they admit it? I think you have to stop thinking for everyone. It's obvious that a stranger is going to just come out with it and say 'because I fancy you'.
Lil1 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Ross, the next time you notice a female checking you out, look at her in the eyes, smile and wink at her. If she was checking you out because she liked you then she will smile back and keep looking at you (maybe even blush and quickly look away). Keep throwing glances at her and if she reciprocates then walk up to her and strike up a convo. Believe me this will work if she is into you!
