Hinting rarely works.

Why would a guy reject a girl who’s beautiful, rich, intelligent, popular and good-humored?

Why would anyone attempt a relationship with someone they weren’t sure was interested in them?

You seem to think reciting a list of desirable qualities overrides answers to essential questions such as:

  • Do you like me?
  • Are you interested in me?
  • Do you want me?

You’re not entitled to a relationship (platonic, romantic, and/or sexual) because you can check off a list of qualities that get you attention.

What do you have to offer outside of these social status markers?

If you’re talking specifically about romantic/sexual relationships, here’s a couple of reasons he might not want you.

  • You’re not his type.
  • He’s already in an exclusive relationship.
  • He’s not sure you’ll have compatible goals, passions, and/or ethics if you were both to decide to be in a relationship with each other.
  • He’s attracted to men only.
  • He’s not looking for a romantic or sexual relationship with anyone right now.
  • He’s asexual and/or aromantic.
  • Even though you possess attractive qualities, he just doesn’t like you.

If you want to know his reasons for rejecting you personally, you’ll have to ask him directly. Fair warning, though: he might tell you something you don’t want to hear or he may never tell you in any case. If he declines to give you any specific reasons, chalk it up as a loss and move on.

What do you want?

If you want compliments and/or a specific kind of relationship, again, you’re going to have to be direct. I’m not saying you have to be rude, pushy, creepy, or arrogant about it. You’ll simply have to make your motivations explicit to him at some point.

All the best.
