[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm not sure why people are being so harsh.  Anonymous forums are the place to ask slightly crazy questions that you wouldn't want to ask a friend directly, so I think your question makes sense.

I have a daughter like yours.  Quite attractive. Very sweet.  Doesn't get interest from boys.  I too didn't get interest from boys.  The only time I got much interest, in fact, is when I decided I needed to get married and then was much more bold and flirtatious and showed that I was interested.  Suddenly, I was getting asked out.  So I think that, especially at your DD's age, it has a lot to do with personality, not about attractiveness.  And not a good personality vs. a bad personality, but a personality that boys find approachable, or a personality where the girl is the aggressor.  I could never have done that, nor does my kid do that.  My DH told our DD that he would never have had the courage to ask someone like her out -- because she's quiet and smart  and so he wouldn't have known where he stood with her.  That seemed to make her feel good.  He said it in a casual way, when we were just generally talking about other matters or maybe his high school life.   Hope this give you some ideas about how to make her feel better if she wants to talk with you about it.  She is not alone!
