I am 26 years old and I have only had one seriously relationship (4 years). I had little confidence growing up and still struggle due to a messed up child hood. I hardly dated in high school, but now I am being told by people that I am very good looking, hot, etc. I have a hard time letting that motivate me to go approach girls that I would consider 10's or 9's. I feel like I lost alot of time though not asking girls out back in the day because obviously they would have gone with me lol.
I went on a date with this girl yesterday that I met online (4th time we have hung out) and she basically tells me she is quite nervous around me because I am so hot. I think she feels like I am too good for her (she's a 6.5 or a 7). She goes on to say that when she first saw me she thought I would be ****y because I am "Very attractive", but I'm actually a really cool guy. Then goes on to say that I could get away with being ****y if I wanted to. Then said that she bets I have a bunch of girls trying to get with me.
Since I just find this girl mdoerately attractive but she and others (as I have been told) think I'm very hot...is there a good c hance t hat the girls I REALLY WANT to go out with will think the same? Do I need to always go for the girls that I find to be EXTREMELY ATTRACTIVE or just settle? I think in a way I kind of just settled with my ex and she said things like, "You can find someone you are more attracted to." THe girl I went on the date with yesterday also said that I am unapproachable because I am so hot and if she saw me she would probably just look away or act uninterested. I know I should feel better about myself because of all this information but I feel so inexperienced with asking girls out, going on dates, that I feel inadequate or something. Even though in the back of my mind I think I could get with some HB's. What to do?
