Okay, okay! I am a posting fool today. I can't help it...

Do you ladies get men who stare at you BUT not approach you? I get this all the time. No matter where I go. Perhaps I have the word Man-Eater tattered on my forehead? I've even had a dude stare me down for a while and then come over to me and my cousin and proceed to question my cousin all about me!!!! Not one freaking word to me. Gee.

What's that all about?

Libra women are beautiful and many men, maybe most men, are intimidated by beauty. Also, all the Libra women I know are SMART and a lot of men are intimidated by smart women. The particular Libra woman I'm crazy about is old-fashioned, so she would prefer to be approached by a man interested in her---she won't make the first move. Sometimes a man just gets tired of constantly working at a relationship instead of just enjoying it. Oh yeah, and sometimes a man just likes sitting back enjoying the view---taking time to just look at a beautiful woman. (They CAN be rare!).

LL1012.. I get that a lot also. Yeh.. Yeh.. I hear that about the pretty girl thing too.. In fact my best-friend(libra) said he did not want to approach me because of the same "pretty girl" factor. He said he thought I was stuck up so he was a bit intimidated until we hung out after work one day.

When guys do that to me now, I give them a really big warm smile (if I find them attractive). I believe that may help them feel less intimidated and more of the true me comes out. I am not stuck up, but even females tell me they thought I was stuck up before they met me, because I am quiet. When I used to go out to the club I would get really dressed up (no one dresses up here, hick town).. NO guy would approach me EVER but would always stare and make comments. I always thought that was strange.. but now I know it was just my "aquaness"... 😉

notso07.."people in this situation don't get approached because they are amazingly unattractive; and the stares actually are a result of the shock and bewilderment"

*giggles* You're crazy...

I want to comment here, I dont know that this is an astrology matter, I think as I seen earlier, men are very intimidated by beautiful women and women can just be catty in general.
I know I hear a lot from really good friends that I am unapproachable and always give people the impression that I am arrogant to a fault. But that is not true, especially once you get to know me or people are attracted to me instantly and want to be around just to see what I will say or do next. I dont know that there is any middle ground, but I think this is with anyone, not just Libras, Leos, scorpios..ya know what I mean ?

I know all about the looks thing BUT they are just looks. I don't get what there is to be so damned intimidated by. Good looks certainly don't intimidate me. No way.

It could be worse.

I actually get men in clubs taking pictures of me and/or my roomie. Sometimes they are subtle. Sometimes they ask and pose with me and/or my roomie. I have no idea what that is about. Others will come up and say, "if I made more money I would date a girl like you." (which I don't get at all.)

I just take it as a compliment and say thank you.

I don't really notice the guys who stare. I am usually having too much of a good time. I have noticed since smiling and making having fun the priority way more men feel comfortable talking to me and approaching me, even if it is just to say, "you have a beautiful smile" or "you're hot."

Whatever. All good.

Nah. There friends are usually there when it happens and see the whole thing or put whoever up to it.

My favorite is when a group of guys try to pose in front of you but it is obvious they are taking your picture not the group.

It can be fun to play with the stares though too. I like the game involved in eye hockey, and Libras while both the guys and girls have trouble being approached alot, usually aren't afraid to approach themselves. Weather or not I approach someone usually has more to do with the manarisims I observe while checking them out than their actual physical attractiveness. you can tell a lot about someone based on how they interract with other people.

I was playing eye hockey with a gorgous cap woman who was a bit older than me (35) the last time I was in Ca. I was kindof using the four other women I met that night at my table to my advantage and she finally walked up and all she could get out was "Your beautiful" and I just returned a devlish smile. I probably get this compliment or "your gorgous" a hundred times more than "handsome" or any more traditional male-oriented compliments. Is this true for any other Libra guys on here? I have been told I am not very approachable because of my good looks. I don't really get it, In my eyes I am unique looking but I don't see myself as classicaly good looking really. My guy friend who was with my is a gemini and is really steryotipically good looking but we seem to get an equal amount of female attention based on looks.

Antibling,

I reside in So Fla...need I say more?

Okay, I have a good, solid reason why some guys just stare: A guy that has been checking me out for eons finally asked me on a lunch date yesterday upon learning that this Friday will be my last day at work. I found out that he is married - the skank. So, I realized that other guys who don't approach may be doing so because of major reasons (i.e. attached, married, etc) and not just because a person is so beautiful.
