When people see that certain people (like very good looking people) are approachable, even nice and might not just care about looks themselves (as in dating someone average) that definately registers with people. It makes them think, hmm, if she'd go out with him (and he might be just average) then who is to say that I don't have a chance..

The truth is, we never know til we try. People might think someone is out of there league, but attraction is subjective. You might not look to most people like a good looking person, but all you have to be attractive is to that one particular person...

Or even more so, the guys that hit on her are guys she's not attracted to so they don't count.

No, I do not believe that. Not at all.

Examples:

In the 90's I was in a bar with my gf's (who were all beautiful and being hit on) and then one of the most beautiful women in the world (IMO) walked in - Cindy Crawford. Plenty of the confident guys started hitting on her, until word got around that she was dating Richard Gere..

One of my guy friends once brought a gorgeous date to an event who happened to be that month's Playboy playmate (had a 6 page spread in the magazine) and was up for playmate of the year. I still have no idea how he got that date. When he was getting drinks, the other guys were all over her...

Now I'm joking. Hahaha.

Having troubles in dating? Guys that I know are quite open to females asking them out. Being blunt is the best way to get a guys attention. Don't beat around the bush with signs and hints. Just walk up and say, "I could see myself dating you if you asked me out."
I am not dating at all right now but I may start soon. Men are still confusing creatures though. lol

Yes, I can see how this is true.

I have no idea if guys find me "beautiful" (previous boyfriends have, but then again, I would hope so, lol), but I don't get hit on. I do however get stared at, which is VERY unnerving.

I think beautiful women and hot women get hit on A LOT with or without attitude. I don't think most guys think about is as much as women. They see a hot girl, they try to get close or talk to her.

Attractive people, man or woman, get hit on typically if they are attractive enough. And not only that, but women absolutely hit on men all the time. The guys that are attractive enough that is.

That doesn't necessarily mean that if you are not getting attention from interested people that you are not attractive (or even unattractive).
BUT, extremely attractive people get attention frequently. Whether it is at the bar, at the dance club, at the grocery store, at the dog park, at the beach..... you get the idea (everywhere). Especially in urban environments.

That attraction is not always a good thing, especially in said urban areas. Here in SF women always have to have their shields up because of all the homeless people and creepers hitting on them.

She was unbelievable. Maybe the most beautiful woman I have seen in person. I was in the ladies room with my friends (touching up our makeup) and she came up to the sink and said hello to us. She told my friend she liked her shoes. The thing I remember is that she didn't even glance at herself in the mirror. She had no need to check herself out - she already knew she looked perfect.

There were enough guys in the bar who were confident (ballsy) enough to hit on Cindy Crawford, which is why I do not agree with the premise of this thread.
