If you could see yourself the way the opposite sex sees you, would you...

For some people, knowing how they come off to the opposite sex can "help" them. Not saying that you should change you to get a man - that's not the point. Sometimes you need to be aware of the vibe you're putting out there.

I think it's good to have self-awareness and to be honest about yourself, but I think it is kind of awkward to post it on GC. It puts the people who reply in one of two (bad) positions. If you say something bad about yourself, you're putting yourself down, and appear to be fishing for sympathy. If you say something good about yourself, you will look arrogant.
