What exactly are you expecting then?

You posted all your good points.

You're either not paying attention or something is wrong. What are your negatives?

All I am saying is that it would be nice, if for once a girl would show some interest by smiling, flirting, etc. It gives a guy the green light to go forward with pursuing a friendship (knowing that they are not completely repulsed by your appearance) and then later a relationship.

How are you putting yourself out there for this to happen?

Surely you're not just expecting random people in your daily life to be doing this?

Yes but HOW do you approach them and where? What I'm getting at is a woman is more than likely willing to " smile " and allow a man to approach if it's the right place and time.

For example in a bar is excellent and especially if you are out with the lads and you see a group of ladies I'm sure one of either group would initiate contact and then more often than not they join your group and that's how YOU get talking to one . Now if you're approaching women that are working or even with their kids/family ( I've seen some actually do it LOL ) then you will have no chance.

As for your looks/ interests I'm sure quite a few will find you " smokin' hot! " ( I believe it's called ) as ALL women have different tastes/requirements they look for in a man, so if you do get turned down its quite possible it's not your fault as your just not there " type "

The interesting thing is that I have read/heard countless stories of guys being "hit on" by women throughout daily interaction. They tell of the girl at the grocery checkout line asking if they are single, the bank teller asking if he is married, the woman who makes a point of saying she is single & smiles & chats w/them, etc

Never happens to me!

Yes, I admit I should try and put forth more effort on my end.....but the lack of interest/encouragement makes this a seemingly insurmountable challenge for me. Had I experienced; being flirted with even once, I might have a very different outlook on putting myself out there.

I was ignored by women when I was in school, but I focused on my goals. Now years later, it seems the cycle continues.

You sound like you're just waiting for women to come up to you and chat... Traditionally, this is not what typically happens. Usually the man initiates.

No on the friendship first. No. No. No. Don't worship women.

Go out an approach. Set a goal... like at least 3 a week. Don't be too nice.

Where do you like to hang out at?
