Don't you notice it also tends to be older women? Like often over 30? Even if they don't approach you for that, they seem more likely to just approach to talk, especially when drunk.
Attractive young women don't feel the need to approach because they are approached more as well. They can be more choosy. Also in general it is OLDER women who have the higher sex drives, so they can become more predatory as their biological clock ticks away (even if their intention is not to have babies with you, that's the drive that drives them).
Being especially attractive can work against women. Guys are afraid to approach them, they get into that "league" mentality. Some of those women don't date because guys don't talk to them, even when a friend tells the guy the woman wants to be approached. I've seen this kind of thing discussed on talk shows. It's weird. Real life definitely doesn't follow cliches.

True. If I were a woman I would definitely NOT want to be the most attractive 1% of the population. You'd get a lot of attention, be able to date hot guys, feel good about yourself in the mirror: but ultimately, the bad outweighs the good, and you have to come back down to earth when age hits. These women for whom looks where EVERYTHING feel at a loss.
No, it'd be better to be somewhat attractive, but be a well-rounded person.
I wish there was an option for other/depend but I voted for Try him out. I think if it's a shy 26+ year-old man it stops being attractive and becomes annoying.
Leave the shyness for the late teens till early 20's people. Afterwards, it's expected to act mature and already know how to initiate a conversation.
But if I had to choose between a shy mid 20's man who never even had a gf or a former stud... I would go for the shy one right away. Why waste even 1 minute of my time trying to tame a man that's not even on my same page and will more than likely end up cheating on me? Shy man wins in this case.
Good way of looking at things...maybe if they approached more, we'd hear less bitching about 'jerks.'
...but bitching nonetheless! You didn't actually expect to eliminate that, did you?
Even the model looking girls have trouble landing the right guy. They already know that lot of guys are going to approach them for sex. Maybe she should her homework and go after the guy she wants.

It is easy to assume things because it comes as natural. Can a broke person become the president of the USA? I don't think so. You have to have lot of money for that.
Some of the shy ones can be really smart and really sweet. And good-looking, too. I wouldn't want to miss out on all that.
Mark Zuckerburg is a shy guy.
