I agree, the traditionally hot guys also tend to be jerks because they know they are hot. Not always, but mostly.
I had those kinds of cruel jokes played on me too! I'm sorry.
I got wise after the first one, though. I always made a big fuss about turning them down in front of lots of people. I didn't date much in school...

I hate people like that! I don't like people who make fun of other people - ever.
I didn't date in high school. Mostly because I had 2 very large, very popular brothers who announced to the woorld the off limits of the me. Very, very frustrating. My first real long term boyfriend was a Tom Cruise Top Gun era look alike. He was a Marine. YUMMY, then the ExFMF.
I have been asked out, I just don't really know how to relate to people I don't know, and because I am shy - I think I intimidate people.

Shyness does not intimidate people, it makes them think you are not interested.

I think I intimidate people too, or scare might be a better word. I really have to try to be less sarcastic and scathing. Also, I can be very catty to people I dont like, although only to their face, I can't be doing with two facedness (is that a word?)
I think it may also have something to do with my he-uge nose, skinniness and the flattest chest this side of puberty.
Damn you Fox! Damn you to Hades!!

What huge nose? You are lovely!
I am thinking of you, aren't I? Did you post in the pictures thread?
And hey, if someone can't deal with scathing, catty, and honest, they are not worth dealing with!

I can tell you, FMF, from a guy's perspective that PR's explanation of shyness is accurate. If I'm interested in someone and she does not reciprocate that interest, it tells me that she's not interested. Shyness may be preventing you from meeting people. Although, I have to admit I sometimes have trouble asking women out because of a fear of rejection. But then I get over it and I'm like, if she says no, it's no big deal! It still sucks, but hey there are plenty of people out there. Anyway, don't let fear hinder you from meeting a nice guy!

from the song Ramona by Bobby Dylan
I've heard you say many times
That you're better 'n no one
And no one is better 'n you.
If you really believe that,
You know you got
Nothing to win and nothing to lose.
From fixtures and forces and friends,
Your sorrow does stem,
That hype you and type you,
Making you feel
That you must be exactly like them.
ya know, i was the class clown in school - quick with the snappy repartee and all... (i've since outgrown that), but it came in handy when meeting girls - if i couldn't make a girl laugh within a few minutes of introducing myself i was already checking the room for another victim.... and i never considered anyone above or below me - i dated the drop dead gorgeous and the brainy bespectacled bookworms and loved them all. A good sense of humor is a playing-field leveling attribute.
edit: ah, victim may have been a poor choice of words... how about lovely, enchanting princess of my dreams....?

PR/GED
I have been told that when the shyness kicks in I get this sort of aloof aura all around me. I think it comes off as arrogance or something. I have had people tell me how nice I am and how they had thought I was so unfriendly at first - and I am just like NO! I just don't know what to say!

You don't seem shy here, in fact, I think you're really nice and outgoing, but then things are always easier when you can't see the person you are talking to.
I like you. I am I allowed to count you as my friend?
Damn you Fox! Damn you to Hades!!
