What do girls find unattractive

I'm an eighteen year old guy. I've been told I"m attractive and work out so I have a fairly muscularly built body. I'm funny and smart yet I haven't had a girlfriend since the fifth grade. Part of the reason is because until recently I havn't liked a girl enough to want to ask her out. The other part of the reason is because I was shy through junior high and high school but have stopped being as shy since graduating. I am now a freshman in college. I asked this girl at work out via email(I know not the best choice but I couldn't find a good time at work). Anyway I got rejected pretty bad. I just wanted to know what are some qualities girls and women find particularly unattractive in a guy. Maybe I have some of these and don't know it. Is being shy really a huge turn off for girls or what?
Do you think it's normal?

hey this could be my story lol
Overanalyzation leads to paralyzation. If you wait and wait for a girl to come around that gives those butterflies, you will only be setting yourself up for unhappiness. Very few of those girls come around in a lifetime. Give girls a chance that are average looking, not the most beautiful. There are plenty of them out there who I am sure would like friendships but instead are passed over. Keep it low key, non threatening and ask many and in no time you will find a good friend. Have fun!
if this is the first girl youve asked out in a long time and you got rejected badly then there is something girls dont like about you find out what it is and try and change it
Is paralyzation even a word sisophous?
An whats the pronunciation on your screen name, its drivin me nuts!
hey Naughty Rascal, I've enjoyed your comments over the past week.

yup, paralyzation is a word, derived from paralyze, I checked it before posting as I try to keep it right as often as I can.

As for my screen name, I got it from the Greek legend (I'm not Greek though) who is noted for pushing a giant rock up a hill. Kind of like my life, always fighting to go uphill and against the odds!!!! "si-so-fuss" And, the actual Greek legend is spelled "Sisyphus", I adapted it and made it to my own way, "Sisophous", just my warped mind!!!! I'm just having fun here, and like my profile says, always try to help anyone out.
Being shy.. to me is a turn off. I personally like to have the guy make the first move..

But then all girls are different, sure a lot of us have similar tastes, yet they are the slightest bit different, before you actually 'go for the kill' or ask the girl out, you should try and get to know them, try to understand their style..

as for using email to ask out.. no no no..!!

if you can't find time, make it, it will be some much more worth it.. I see it as, if you cannot ask them out in person how are you going to hold serious conversations in person during a relationship?

I hope you luck with future girls, and if you can't figure them out.. don't worry, our minds are pretty complex, we don't understand ourselves half the time.. but that's the fun in it!

Good Luck!

be sweet to them make them feel like a princess and like theyre the most important thing alive. I know this because i have a girlfriend whom i love very very very much and she keeps saying that a big part of her love for me is because im so sweet and caring.
i think that if ur shy then it depends on if it turns grls off. im a grl and i used to like a shy guy around grls...that turned me off cuz i kept on tryin to tlk to him but he was so shy he barely tlkd to me...so i moved on. at first its cute when a guy is shy but if thay dont make a move then it shows the grl ur NOT interested!
shy guys are a turn off...
burping with your mouth open...and shyness
The good looking ones are too high maintenance usually. You sometimes have to settle for in between good personality and good looking. But, I mean you can't totally give up on looks. Even blind people care about that. As for the ask out via email, yeah that was probably a bad move. But if she's worth it to you, don't give up yet. Go up to her office or what not and apologize about the email thing and then ask her if she would reconsider. If she says no again, then shes a bitch and you should probably forget about the stupid cunt.
I agree with siph. As I myself have learned, the longer you wait to ask a girl out, the more obsessed you become, and when you finnally ask her out (while the entire time you passed up many chances to talk to her because you were afraid) she has never noticed you before now, so says no.

To get a gal, you must build a friendship with them. you cant just expect to walk up to a girl, say "wanna go to the movies?" and hear them say yes, cause they WILL say NO. they dont know you!!!!

So, on the same day, do all these things

1) sit next to a girl in class

2) start a conversation, and keep it going!!

3) after the conversation ends(if you did it right, it should end at the end of class or should be a two part conversation, P1 at start P2 at end) say, "hey, whats your name?" *she answers* you say "ok"

4) Find her out of class (preferably right after class) and flag her down, and start walking next to her and talking (if u dont have a conversation going, or a faulty one, say "well i gotta go, seeya")
When THAT conversation ends, say goodbye
*
DAY 2
* note, if everything went well, when she sees you she will smile
If she smiles on this second day, at you, thats a good indicator that you should keep talking to her (DONT EVEN DARE ASK HER OUT YET)

Keep a conversation going, but dont disrupt the class to much.

AFTER THAT CONVERSATION, ask if she wants to get lunch with you. (do lunch, because dinner is a bad choice when u just met her, lunch is more casual and easy going)

If she says sure, then when you guys get there, start more conversations!!!!!! (good conversations are THE MOST NECCASARY THING)

The only way you can ever get a girl is start a conversation!

Thats the most I can think of right now, trust me, it works! without conversations prior to asking to lunch, no girl will say yes.

Also, dont say "hey wanna go out with me?"
never ask a girl to go out with you b4 starting a simple relationship

ALWAYS say "wanna get lunch togeather?" because that does not imply that you have any intent other than having lunch with her.

Hope it helps. btw, make sure she isnt taken, and that she isnt like THE BEST LOOKING GIRL IN THE CLASS. Start with an average looking girl. (and yes, even average girls have some undesirable traits)
Broke ass 18 year olds is a turn off.
Confidence is attractive. Very. Not cockiness, just a certain level of confidence. Also, a sense of humor is a definite turn-on.

-a good speaker (doesnt make things awkward)
-a decent dresser (no old shirts with food stains!)
-It is also good to have a past relationship that lasted for awhile, this way the girls know that you are capable of being a good boyfriend.
-BE ROMANTIC. Many girls love a little romance, just dont get to cheesy. make note of what the girls fav flowers are and then surprise her with them a few weeks later.
be your self. a real tern off is someone who is acting like someone there not.
I ususally do not fall for the outgoing guys- I like the mysteriousness and the awesome attatchment you get when you break through.
But I am weird. for me turnoffs are :
hairless chests and stomaches
bad teeth
cropped hair
high voices
small hands
men who speak like they are in the second grade.
get a lyf and have some courage!!
shyness is not really a turn off...it kind of makes a girl think that you have something to hide or maybe you arn't very confident with yourself to say what you want. but it also makes a girl think that you care about what you are going to say. in other words your not all about you, and you are considerate of other people. i'm not sure if this makes sense, its just how i veiw quieter men.
Here is what she finds unattractive: You
