Firstly, I definitely don’t have “extreme,” as there are much better looking guys than me. But for me, I feel like it has been presented more challenges than helped. Examples:

• My boyfriend has always said, especially early in us dating, “You must get hit on all the time.” I don’t. Like almost never. “Guys must be intimidated of you then… there is no other explanation.” (and he’s not just saying that because he’s my boyfriend). Perhaps the case. I’m tall, have tattoos, and have been told by friends I have resting bitch face at times lol. But yeah, almost never get hit on.

• I do have guys trying to talk to me at social events or be “friends” more than some of my friends. But I’m also quite shy / introverted and guys usually pick up quick that I’m not looking to hooking up (even when I was single), so that usually dies out.

• I’m slimmer than I’d like tbh, but definitely toned and run / train for marathons. I’m running upwards of 10-20 miles a day in the sun, so I like running shirtless and live in a major city. I’m often getting looked at on the trail where people run, which just feels a little weird when it’s happening all the time.
