Do people tell you you're phisically attractive?

Yes, I have had people tell me I am physically attractive outside of friends and family. Doesn't happen often though. I am a guy who talks very little and remains very shy and introverted. It is not like I approach people and ask them if they think I am good looking or not.

People used to say that I was good-looking, or that their friends thought I was. Haven't heard that for a long time though.

I usually get told "you would be pretty if you: smiled more, got your hair cut short, wore better clothes, lost weight, put on makeup". Mum used to say a lot of these things because she couldn't understand why I didn't want to make the best of my looks.

I liked long hair because I could hide behind it if things got too overwhelming and I now have long hair. If I visit my mum, she usually cuts off a lot of my hair.

I don't like clothes shopping very much because the mirrors make us look twice as wide as we really are and it's hard to lose weight when the medication I take slows down the metabolism.

But I look several years younger than my age - there are people around the place who I think are my age or older and I get a big shock to find out they are sometimes years younger than me.

Ah, I see.

I love my friends because they always make me feel good by telling me how pretty I am, LOL. I've heard that their guy friends have seen pictures of me and said that I'm pretty, but I've never heard it in life from a guy. I think I have a pretty face, but I'm not curvy enough to be "sexy." Yeah, I think that's exactly it. Hmm...

I think the ony people who ever tell me I look good are people in my family. My grandmother has said both my brother and I should be models. Maybe my brother could, but I'm not so sure about me. I think she's probably just saying what a grandmother should say to her grandsons though. Personally, I don't think I'm bad-looking. I had a conversation about this with a friend a few weeks ago. I was saying that people should be able to go up to other people on the street and say "Hey, you're a fine-looking individual" without getting weird looks. I'd tell someone they were good-looking, but my friend says that's not a normal thing to do so other people probably wouldn't do it. It kinda bugs me because I think everyone could use that little boost of confidence now and again, you know?

I've been called good-looking by some... few of those people could get past the "weirdness" of me.

I've been putting on a spare tire, which is a little less attractive... gotta' lose that.
I want my wife to smile when she looks at me.

I have had a few women say my eyes are like none they have ever seen before and I don't doubt their sincerity. For the most part younger, very NT women find me to be very repulsive. Older women tend to be more attracted to me but not very many. The only other women who say I am atractive are single mom's looking for a meal ticket.

Yep. It's happened a few times. I think my "aspie personality" blows them away, though..
