I am 5'10 1/2, long legs and many people call me a "book." Does this intimidate guys?

Good morning Princess. To answer your question: No, the right guys aren't. Any others don't matter. I myself have never been intimidated by a girl although I've been whooped up on by a few. When I had hair they would use that for leverage, now it's the beard they grab. Ouch, that smarts. No fair.

I have been told that I am too pretty, too smart, too tall and too nice, have kids and am faithful. What does that mean? To me, these things all seem to be a positive. Is it possible or is this just an excuse to not interact with me?

You deserve to have your needs fulfilled and have the life you want. If someone doesn't fit into that or provides excuses, that is not the right person.

Some men may just feel they can't deliver what you're looking for JP. All the things they have said to you are "positive" attributes and IMHO are much to be desired. Some men just cannot rise to the challenge and they know it, therefore, they make the comments you mentioned. Stay true to yourself, don't settle for someone who cannot appreciate those good qualities in you.

This happens to me many times. Usually my height, my intelligence, my kids, and my faith are lumped together in this excuse. Guys seem to be very attracted to my long legs. This seems to be a sexual magnet. I believe that a guy should treat my like a lady and be a gentleman.

Keep your faith and keep on searching he'll turn up!

Love your life. And, the 'right' person will see that and provide you with love, no excuses.

Your long legs... look at it this way, you may meet a guy who notices your legs and then talks with you and then discovers he likes you for all the reasons you have listed. That will happen in the course of your day to day life. You will have to be at the right place at the right time. You deserve to be treated as a lady and smart enough not to settle for less. I wish you success. :-)

I had a married man come up and give me a hug and told me that he loves to hug tall women. Ok. That was a bit strange, but the single guys will look (and stare-I see them) and not approach. To me this is odd. It seems like the guys that do approach me are usually just wanting sex. My guy friends tell me that it is because I have long sexy legs. Huh? As if I can control that.

Tall guys are NOT intimidated(5'10" ish and up), by tall women! If guys are not aapproaching you, it may be for another reason

Well that is one drawback to being so beautiful people almost automatically assume that you are either already taken or too good for them. So yes they can be intimidated. But it is a blessing in disguise. Would you really want a man who is intimidated by your beauty or height?

Is it possible, you could be like the beautiful woman who wants to go to the prom but doesn't because all the boys assume that someone else is taking you? I am a leg man myself, but there are other cues like if a woman just walks by without smiling, etcera. What is going through the mind of the man, what kind of stress is he going through. I don't think there is a set answer, there are so many variables. I wish I could give you a nice, neat answer.

What's that phrase 'what others think about you, is none of your business' I think that if you focus more on yourself and your life and less on what others might be thinking - maybe you might be approached more. If you are busy living your life, someone that is both attracted to your beauty (internal and external) will approach you. Will it necessarily be the right person ... no. Could it be someone with negative thoughts/intentions.... yes. But, if you are fulfilled in your life, you should be able to see this.
