Is it normal that people tell me i am pretty but i am barely hit on?

People I have just met tell me I am pretty yet I am barely hit on and I barely get male attention. Never asked out on a date. I mean, don't get me wrong, I have been hit on before and I have gotten male attention but just not a lot. Is this normal?

    See that as a blessing. Getting hit on is awkward, and it's rarely done by people you want to date.

      That's just what I was thinking.

      I agree. Be thankful you don't have to deal with BS

    Maybe your level of attractiveness does not outweigh something else that is detracting to your date-ability appeal. Maybe you have body odor, bad breath or you have no personality. Perhaps you don't shave your legs or arm pits. Who knows.

    Boys (& men) are afraid of rejection. If you are pretty, the guys think you have a lot of attention or you have so many dates that you will turn them down.

      So true. They are intimidated by pretty girls unless they look "easy" or slurry. Most of the people who hit on others aren't worth your time anyway unless you're looking to date just for fun

    You're getting friend-zoned by the boys. Eye contact, the right kind of smile, flirt skills, posture, and swagger all make a difference. When you shower, soap up twice. When you brush your teeth, brush your tongue way in back. There is something that is working against you.

    Not trying to be rude but this is my observation.You are either hot or not. Being called pretty, to me, has always meant someday you might have the potential to be hot, but you aren't quite there yet.

      Damn downvoted. I guess there aren't any Seinfeld fans on here.

    The exact same thing happens to me. Eventually you try to force attention into yourself and then you really get guys you don't want. But that's the stage I'm at now so I have no more advice.

    You probably just don't notice it when it happens. I know I was oblivious to flirting for a long time.
