Oh sweetie, that's harsh. A lot of people are their own worst critics. I think of myself as below average looking and I've done okay.
well, I also said it was that I'm introverted, and not really the type to go around approaching people - because I think it implies that you're more outgoing and forward, so I just think it would be weird, if I go up and talk to someone, and then be like "ok, cya" - they would probably just be like, wait, you approached me...lol, idk. It seems like people don't just go talk to someone in public, and I don't go to bars, so...I'm not sure where to 'approach' someone anyway, where it wouldn't look weird...

What about online dating? A good option for someone introverted I would have thought.

yeah, that's what I've been doing. I didn't really date much before that. It's easier to talk to someone online, but I'm kind of sick of it, because of all the issues that many others post about. :/

Ignore those negative nellies that constantly argue that online dating has issues.
Not long ago, maybe 2 - 3 weeks ago, I was approached by a woman. Rather attractive, but not stunningly beautiful and we started talking. The red flag: she smokes. I'm an ex-smoker and do not need to revert - it was HELL quitting cold turkey!
I hear ya - too bad but you have to protect your health!
And that's a problem since guys many times don't pick up on that subtlety so then women get discouraged and men wonder why women never approach!
Shouldn't be a problem, as he said, it's 2017, women should feel like they can approach. I'm not going to assume a woman is flirting because she asks for a smoke, I'm going to give her the smoke (unless she's a teenager). Random eye contact doesn't automatically mean 'Come hither'. The time for subtlety is passed. And some of the more self-assured women DO approach, even if they still do it in 'safe' ways--I've had women strike up conversations in the grocery line (one friendly woman asked me out of the blue if the grapes she had purchased looked fresh), on the subway platform ('Sigh...do you know when this train is coming?').
I have yet to be impressed by hair-flipping, as I've seen hair before.

well, it's the same issues that I've experienced - guys that are just looking for sex, or say they want to meet, but don't actually make a date, but keep talking and want to keep you around for whenever they feel like someone to talk to, or like meeting. ugh. it's exhausting and stressful.

I think the thing is that I'm just naturally flirty...so I think they would probably just assume I'm interested. Otherwise, if I'm trying NOT to be flirty, then they think I don't like them, or are just in a bad mood or something.
But, I've tried that, if a guy talks to me and seems interested, (usually at a store or something), then I'll make conversation, to show that I'm friendly, but not being flirty or anything, thus giving them an opening to keep talking and ask about me, but then they don't, so I figure I guess they weren't interested then. oh well. better than wondering. it's just confusing when guys act all friendly and interested, when they really don't have a reason to, and then when you engage...they're like, oh, just kidding. lol. ugh people are just so exhausting.

Just to lighten this thread up a bit
Hot guy approaches hot girl "want to go back to my place and bang"
Highly likely outcome, a harsh rejection.
