This is GAF, where everyone has 12+ inch dicks. What do you think?
Is OP really expecting serious answers??

Remember, when this happens, do the following:
Anyway, has only happened to me twice (at least in a way that didn’t go over my head). One time was a movie theater three years ago. I was coming back from the bathroom (had about 10 minutes or so before trailers started) and these two girls walking by stopped and said they liked my X-men shirt. I said, “thanks” and was going to keep walking (people in public offhand compliment my nerd shirts occasionally so I thought that was this) but then they kept talking to me. And now that I was looking at them I found their appearance pretty sus, like they probably could have been 18 or older but it seemed possibly iffy. Regardless, I was 32 by this point so I would feel weird if a girl who was flirting with me wasn’t at least 22 (and even that’s pushing it, mid-20’s would be better). I know some have the “if it’s legal, it’s all good”, but I‘m just not into that. So I told them my movie was just about to start (a lie, plus this was my 2nd viewing of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood so I had seen it already) and they seemed disappointed which confirmed to me they were flirting. But honestly, even if they were at an acceptable age for me, two girls flirting with me simultaneously would just be too much for my anxiety issues, especially if I just met them.
Which leads me to the 2nd instance, same year in fact. I was leaving work and we have to pass through a small security building to reach the parking lot (has metal detectors and such). Well, my work area had ran late compared to most of the others so I was the only employee currently walking through the security building. One guy was behind the desk on the other side, and the girl watching the detectors smiled as I walked through them and said my hair was cute. This caught me totally off guard as at most the security guards would say “hi” and “have a good one”. Anyway, again my anxiety shot through the roof and I managed to keep a poker face, smile, tell her thank you and have a good day. And I walked out before I could see her reaction but my body was basically on auto pilot just to get out of the anxious situation, like I don’t feel I had actual control over my body until 10 seconds later. So I felt like an asshole but I really couldn’t do much about it. Anyway, they rotate through guards frequently and that was the last day I saw her.
I know at this point I should see a psychiatrist about this as I’m pretty sure dating is impossible for me right now with my current anxiety issues. But at least I know I’m not unattractive to everyone, while the two times in life I’ve managed to power through and ask a girl out I was turned down, at least I have the above examples to counteract that. But honestly, at 35 I’ve kinda stopped viewing romance as this essential element of life. I’m actually perfectly happy with life mostly on more days than not, and when I am feeling down, being single has nothing to do with it. So I’m not too worried. Lord know plenty of single guys get all bitter and become assholes about it, so glad I didn’t turn out like that.

When I was in shape? all the fucking time.
After battling Leukemia for 2 year and gaining 120lbs?
They cross to the other side of the street when they see me.

I lost like 75 pounds, but I’m still at 251. I would love to be in shape. Girls won’t give me the time of day. Been that way my whole life.

I know exactly how it feels. Stick with it man, start lifting weights if you haven't yet and keep improving yourself. It takes a long time to get there but don't be discouraged by that because eventually it absolutely will happen, you'll look and feel awesome and girls will talk to you.

I’m married with kids and good looking with good body shape (genes+exercise), holidays are the worst. The amount of young thots wanting to hook up with you, girls must be getting desperate or they are too lazy to do OF.

Very little these days. To be honest, it wasn't exactly every day even when I was younger!
I'm fairly tall, not great looking but in good shape for my age. However, even that fits more into the category of 'other men at the gym are impressed by how strong I am' as opposed to 'attractive young women can't keep their hands off me'.
I'm married though so it doesn't really matter. However, it would be nice to be asked once in a while

Not a lot these days. Probably because I don't put myself out in the open so often. During the week I hit the gym before work, then go to work and perhaps shopping, that's it.
My last girlfriend sourced me out on Facebook after seeing me in gym... Been aproached in clubs a few times too, one time in particular stuck with me because the girl was REALLY hot. Came straight up at me with "You're hot!"
Consider myself fairly good looking but I was so taken aback that I blew it.
These days I simply do not care that much any more so I tend to seek to stick by myself.

Define 'approach'. In my experience women just tend to stand there and give you the googly eyes. The only time a female has approached me was when she was hammered/ high on something and they had lost all their inhibitions.

A few times in my life, but mostly its not something that happens so I probably don't even recognize it when it does lol
It becomes very apparent how little it happens when I go out with my much more conventionally attractive friends They're like walking black holes, sucking in all the girls around them. It's an entirely different world for good-looking people, eh?

I'm honestly terrible at telling and generally unaware.
Some that I have noticed are in shops, but really the ambiguity as to whether they are just doing their jobs prevents me from even considering it.
I've had a few work and social circle ones, but none of them were remotely attractive and I just ignored their attention. One kept touching me and I had to confront her about it; almost told her to her face that I wasn't into land whales.
The only one that wasn't someone naturally flirty (met quite a few of those too) was a bartender while I was a university student. She complimented my bracelet and was rather too chatty for someone just waiting for a drink. I didn't tag it until I got back to the table with my friends.

I want to say never but that's probably not true. Im terrible at picking up on this stuff.
Unless we're talking strangers just walking up and starting conversation because that never happens.
I get a lot of looks when I'm out but I've always been told it's because I'm ugly and funny looking. Yes I have believed this for 25 years.

And no, they didn't even notice as they were up on a balcony from which you couldn't see the bar.

I’m pretty bad at noticing but I’ve noticed at the gym it happens from time to time and had a few at work this summer, and then they made it awkward every time we worked together.

Fucking gold my man! Can't stop laughing.
I have a few others don't want to spam the thread but when I lived in Barcelona, walking to a club with a large group of mates visiting at the same time as my birthday. We walked from the bar to the club, bumped into 2 girls on the way. Everyone is drunk.
They start talking to me, one took a liking. Walking there with these two drunk girls I start to feel something is a bit off, drugs or drink, I'm not sure. I had already had both as well.
End up in the club with one, can't find my mates so now I'm stuck with her. Keep trying to lose her but she'd pop out of the scenery and frighten the shit out of me when walking around. really good looking girl, so thought fuck-it can't find them I need a drink so we had a drink together. I just nodded when she was obviously out of it. She begged me to go back to her place, I said I couldn't (she was too drunk, fuck knows what could happen there.) so did the decent thing, got her a taxi from outside and she kept telling me her phone number and to ring after as I was helping her in. Prob 3am, clubs run late there.
So eventually found my mates, night ended drunk etc. Thought about it the next day, she really was good looking. So I thought 'worth a shot now she's sober'. Had the number right, spoke to her, she remembered me. Asked for a date (now she's sober).
Phone went dead. I couldn't stop laughing. Dodged one bullet there for sure. fuck knows what the morning after in that case would have been like if I had of gotten into that taxi.
Shit like that happened all the time. I can't say I miss it. I ain't no Brad Pitt either.

I'm 36 and have never had this happen.
Get on TRT, depending on your age....if you can handle the "risk" (basically none). Being in shape will affect other aspects of your life as well. It was a gamechanger for me.
