I am so upset by this =( I am an attractive BDSM lord. I am CLINICALLY INSANE, as opposed to fashionably so I dont look like JAMIE DIMON or anything like that. I am conservative in appearance and mannerisms too, except when I'm CHAINED up in my SEX DUNGEON Yet, I am always approached/hit on by OLD KOREAN GRANDMOTHERS never any available PLAYBOY BUNNYS. I get really upset by this - some of my guy friends say it is because I am 'intimidating and unapproachable' .... well OLD KOREAN GRANDMOTHERS dont seem to think so and neither does my COCAINE DEALER or my CRYSTAL METH DEALER etc Can anyone help me understand this? Would any of you approach someone like me and if not, why? What should I do to encourage the right attention from my 'target market'? I get so down thinking I am just going to be alone all my life, whilst my friends, are getting CHOKED BY JANET YELLEN and having intense pleasure from EROTIC ASPHIXIATION =(

 
"Intern in Prop Trading " I am so upset by this =( I am an attractive girl. I am classically beautiful, as opposed to fashionably so I dont look like a party girl or anything like that. I am conservative in appearance and mannerisms too. Yet, I am always approached/hit on by married men never available guys. I get really upset by this - some of my guy friends say it is because I am 'intimidating and unapproachable' .... well married men dont seem to think so and neither does the UPS guy or the uber guy etc Can anyone help me understand this? Would approach an introvert, shy and classically beautiful woman? What should I do to encourage the right attention from my 'target market'? I get so down thinking I am just going to be alone all my life, whilst my friends, who are party girls and with loads of makeup, are getting married and having babies =( It is just not in me to be that way.

Never Happened.

Second, why are you dismissing the Uber and UPS guy!?

Seriously?!! Are you saying you'd be interested in your Handy housecleaner?! WTF

 

here is another idea....go on a date with the married guy...hook up with him...get video evidence...than blackmail them.

you'll be rich. make sure you get paid in bitcoin

just google it...you're welcome
 

Is she the same one who said she had coworkers who'd snigger at her? I tried to correct her by saying, you mean snicker? She said no, Snickers is a candy bar, they are sniggering.

 

an arcade is like a futures account for retail equity traders...you deposit cash used as margin...allowing leverage on the securities you trade (usually around 20x)...but if your P&L drops below your starting cash deposit...you are stopped out...the market took all your money, and they close your account. conversely, if you are profitable...the arcade takes a % of your profits (i've heard numbers around 50%)...so heads they win, tails, they lose nothing.

just google it...you're welcome
 

Dont know what page you're on but there are no arcades in the UK to my knowledge at present. Died down with rise of HFT

 

After college, finding someone who will like you will be incredibly difficult unless you have a great social circle. Now, I don't know what you look like or your personality because we haven't personally. As an example as myself, after I took the career of finance, I promised myself to never get a girlfriend, get married or have children. I still remember the day when I made that promise. It's going to be difficult and I am sure you are a great person on outside and inside. It just gets harder to find someone after you finish school and start working. In time, I believe you meet someone you cares about you.

I'm a quiet person and I like to keep to myself. I'm not some terrible person who treats women disrespectfully or badly. I just know my finance career going forward wouldn't allow to me to spend time and care about someone if they cared and loved me.

Obviously it’s because you’re always on your phone and or unapproachable. The Uber and UPS guys can talk to you because they have an excuse and feel more comfortable to. It’s socially acceptable they’re just doing they’re jobs and happen to say some comments, kinda like when you go to a restaurant and you notice the staff is extra friendly lol. Married men do it cuz they don’t care and don’t have a worry in the world that’ll you’ll be tough to talk to cuz hey woah, I’m married. And they know at anytime they have a socially awkward get out of jail free card that ofcourse you’ll go along with. You want to be approached more make it easier, what does that mean? Most men wait to approach a girl at “the right time” aka the “easiest time”. Just make it easier. Don’t wear sunglasses, earbuds, or being on your phone when you walk, walk slower don’t make it seem like your running from a hurricane. Seem happier when you go about your day, not like your ready to take out whatever bullshit that your girlfriend just pissed you off with on the next unlucky sap who walks up to the already self aware girl who knows she’s “conservatively beautiful” btw super cute that you described yourself that way lol.

 

Didn't think I'll have to be the one to say this but....

Pics or didn't happen. For research of course.

 

if you want single men to approach you...you need to give them "approach me" signals...make eye contact with them and smile...then look away...then make eye contact again and smile with a flirty laugh and a wink. Hold the eye contact and smile for at least a few seconds, perhaps flip your hair and expose your neck, before looking away.

This is how single men know you are ok and interested in being approached. Otherwise, most single men who are afraid of rejection will never approach you.

 

As a young stud in his second year of IB, why would I hit on an attractive co-worker and risk becoming labeled as a low EQ, toxic masculine, bill cosby, sexist bigot when I can get pussy on tap from tinder.

Regardless I prefer not to to mesh with my kind, prefer the artsy girl working at a coffee shop and barely making ends meat, but has 10k IG followers and is wearing Balenciaga triple S / high wasted jeans. I'll leave you to the the thirsty VPs to mangle
