So, I am this Saudi Arabian girl who moved to the US for school. I have been here for about 2 years now. I attend college -graduate school. I just turned 24. I am going to finish school soon, I am doing a law degree right now.
I am attracted to good-looking and smart white guys. He doesn't have to be channing-tatum kind of good looking, but average good looking. You know what I mean, and there are plenty of them.
Anyway, those white guys that I am attracted to never approach me! They just look at me and when I look at them, they turn their heads away very fast. Also, I noticed that when I talk with them for class stuff they don't make eye contact.
I am not ugly, I know I am attractive. I am very fit, tan skin, black hair, black big eyes. I speak perfect English- with a slight foreign accent. I wear brands and take care of my looks. I also wear nice perfumes and very little makeup (maybe I eyeliner and mascara mostly) I am not gorgeous, but I am good looking. The problem is that only black and Hispanic guys flirt with me. Never white guys! White guys only flirt with me when they are drunk at a bar of a nightclub, and I don't go there often because I don't like theses places so much. Hispanic and black guys seem very confident around me and they make eye contact and flirt with me at the library or at the hallways -in school etc. But never white guys. Actually, sometimes I feel like white guys are avoiding me. Like for example, they would keep it very short when they talk to me for something regarding school or something.
What is up with white guys? Do I have to approach them myself?
And if you are thinking that I wear hijab or something, no I don't wear it. I wear western clothing, and people assume I am from Spain all the time.
Any advice? Is there something wrong with me?! Is it a cultural thing? Like would they be afraid of my culture and religion and that sort of thing?
