Q: Dear Scott – I’m 35 years old, white, average-looking and a little overweight. I have a decent job and own a home. I really want to be in an intimate relationship but no one asks me out.
Don’t tell me to ask men out because I’ve tried that and they come up with some lame excuse about being friends. How do I improve my attraction rating without having to go on Extreme Makeover?
I don’t want to believe that I’ll be alone for the rest of my life just because of my looks.
SCOTT: You’re a little overweight and average-looking. So what! You could be as unattractive as homemade soap and still get a date. It’s your dumb luck that you haven’t been asked out yet but with the right attitude, you will.
All right, I won’t tell you to ask guys out. If you’re not comfortable with that, don’t do it. You don’t need an extreme makeover either. It’s more about your behavior and how you carry yourself.
You need to put yourself out there and be open to meeting someone. Show your lighter side, laugh a lot and just be fun to be around and sooner or later you’ll meet someone just as fun as you.
