This always puzzled me.. when I have a great day, and walk around with a puffed chest smiling at people, women positively seem to ignore me. When have a bad day, or didn't wash my hair or something, it's the opposite, and I get eyed when I don't really want it. Once I walked around sulking, more or less staring at the ground, and a random young woman told me I was "very beautiful". I said thanks, but thought "WTF?! I look like shit."

Maybe people like it when they feel like they have to offer something to a person.
