[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Married woman here. Married men express interest, with varying degrees of directness, at least a couple of times per month. About two months ago I met a man out walking my dog in my neighborhood. He said hello and introduced himself. He was wearing a sweatshirt from my alma mater. I observed I went there, completely without agenda. We chatted briefly. Our lines of work came up. Two days later he emails-- he'd found my work bio on line and wanted to say hello and hoped he runs into me, maybe coffee next time. He had a wedding band and was probably within a block of his home when he first chatted me up.

Married. Men. Do. This. [/quote]

I wonder if I'm just unattractive because absolutely no married men ever express interest in me.  At all.  I'm 41 and slender.  I know this is horribly immature but I have zero interest in actually having an affair.  I just want someone to be interested in me so that I can feel flattered and say no thanks.[/quote]

Do you have Resting B#tch Face (RBF)? If you are slender and generically attractive, then there must be something that is making men hesitant to approach you. Frankly, I'm much more likely to strike up a random conversation with someone who is smiling, has open body language, holds eye contact, and generally just seems outgoing. If you appear standoffish or harried, no one is going to bother approaching you. It really is about giving off an approachable vibe and demeanor; and I think that this is something that can be leveraged in professional and non-romantic settings.

Of course, no normal guy is going to straight up proposition you. I doubt you will be put in the position of having to say "Thanks for the offer, but no, I will not have sex with you." But they will, however, flirt with you, hold direct eye contact, and perhaps ask you to coffee.[/quote]
