Do you think that really beautiful women get sick of being hit on?

25 Comments

I remember being on a bus in Rome in 1967 and, as I recall, a young blonde American woman got on the bus. Every head turned and conversations completely died. She was not just outrageously beautiful, she wore a gorgeous white suit and elegant jewelry. She made Grace Kelly look like a
bag lady. ( OK, apologies to all you bag ladies out there. :-> )
I've seen about 15 such gorgeous women in my life and I remember each of them vividly. Most were very brief encounters, and I never saw any of the unaccompanied ones ever get approached by a man.

I think I've heard that quite a few of them are alone on Saturday night because "most men" assume that they are taken or that themselves would never have a chance with such a stunner, so they don't even make an approach.

If you ever approached an absolute stunner, what happened?

So, do you think that really beautiful women get sick of being hit on?

No, because most guys are too intimidated to hit on them. 13
Yeah. I am a gorgeous chick and I wish the creeps would leave me alone 32
Yes and no. It depends on her reaction to the guy doing the hitting. 27
No. But they get very adept at deflecting approaches. 11
Yes, I think this is probably the case. 12
No way. I am a gorgeous chick and I love it. 8

    I think my post was deleted - but anyway I wouldn't have thought of being "hit on" as being asked out for a date or conversation intended to get to know the person better. I would tend to see it as sexualized attention - wanted, or not - and some of that getting pretty inappropriate. But apparently it is seen to include all of that. So it is not possible to answer.

    If you mean hit on 20 times a month, then that might be true. But if she dresses provocatively and spends a lot of time clubbing then it would be unfair to complain about being hit on. And there ARE women like that. They get off on being adored from a distance and shutting 99% of men down.

    I have, and I am talking to her right now. Am I sexually attracted to her? No. Most females that are "gorgeous" aren't that gorgeous to me.

      What!? So that's how you really feel huh?

      Well good day sir!

      By the way, I'm with you. A lot of females that are considered gorgeous don't do much for me. No idea why.

      Not true, Alice. ANY means ALL. When you use an absolute like that, you say, "I react first, then, if I get around to it, I think about what I said and whether it made sense."

        I did not mean "All" when I said "any".

        Even those who get off on being hit on and then turning men down get sick of it eventually... didn't you ever think of that?

          Of course I thought of that. A lot of people do something over and over and then suddenly, it's not fun or interesting anymore. They really want a change.
          OTOH, a lot of men NEVER get tired of Bravo Juliets. Just as interested at 85 as they were at 15.

    I have a friend who is one. She never gets hit on. Although she does actually have a long-term boyfriend now. But prior to that, nothing.

      Have you asked her Dappled? She's never been hit on, groped, leered at etc.?

        She does talk about it. It's more that she doesn't get the desired attention (men developing an interest in her, asking her out, etc) rather than the unwanted attention (groping, leering, etc.) I don't think she gets either, though.

            God, she doesn't think so. She had a complex about it for the longest time. Everyone commented how attractive she is, but nobody did anything about it. She started to think people were telling her she's attractive out of sympathy because she has a horrible flaw that only she can't see.

              I see "hitting on" as sexualizing which is not the same as say being asked out on a date. I've come to realize others use the term for both, or are perhaps incapable of discerning what is and isn't bad behaviour.

              I understand that feeling a lot. :/ I grew up being the ugly kid, my nickname in high school was "the antiboner." Except I'm not that good looking and don't even get compliments. XD

    My experience with really beautiful women is they are so used to the same old approaches from men that they get sick of it and brush off most guys immediately.

    I have found the opposite approach works. I once struck up a conversation with a woman who I thought looked like a supermodel. I was in a relationship at the time and I told her that, and I generally let her know (without actually saying it) that I was not intimidated or impressed by her looks.

    She told me that "no one has ever refused her before" and wouldn't leave me alone (I'm no oil painting either). She called me incessantly for days and one night at 2am she sent her driver to my hotel in her Mercedes because she wanted me to come to her apartment. (I went back to bed.)

    A week or so later, I weakened and ended up in naked bed with her, but at the last minute decided I couldn't go thru with it due to my relationship.

    It really depends. Some guys wouldn't approach a woman they thought was too pretty, while a lot of creeps approach any and all women. Some women love attention and some have that "don't fuck with me" vibe.
    btw in Rome its still pretty much considered 'normal" for men to grope women on busses, sadly.

    I did not vote, for the simple reason that I don't believe your premise is accurate, and I'll explain why:

    Some hot chicks don't even get spoken to - they're so hot people are afraid to even talk with them; I know, I have a platonic gf who, on a scale of 1-10 is an 11. She can't even make friends (other than people like me).

      I find that a very interesting situation. If I were a psychologist I'd take her case at a discount.

        It's not her problem, it's the men's.

          She's very likely to be sending some 'stay away' signals. Fear of a close/sexual relationship can make a girl do that. Just like abused children can be damaged by what adults do to them and it takes many years and a lot of therapy to undo the damage.

          Check out Tom Scales', "Terrible Things Happened to Me.".

    Probably. It really wouldn't do them any good to get mad about it though.
