Do you think being good looking makes social anxiety worse

I live in a small town so there aren’t a lot of good looking people so being alright looking put me in the spotlight a lot I feel like it made it harder to have social anxiety I always wished no one would notice me

I hate to sound big headed but I have social anxiety. Many people say I'm good looking, I attract a lot of attention. Unfortunately more so negative than good. The people that were in my life say it's because I'm pretty. (I hate talking this way as it makes me seem conceited) anyways I've been stalked, harrassed, I always get old people, mentally unstable people, young children and animals approach me.
A lot of the time it's a negative response either by the person approaching or someone they are with.
If I were rich it would be worse, although people think I'm rich now anyways so I cannot win. I stick out like a sore thumb and my anxiety makes it worse especially when I'm having an anxiety attack. Despite all of this I've been told I'm incredibly generous.

When I was in my 20's and single and better looking, at times it did.. it's like everyone wants a piece of you.. it can be tough..
Thank god those days are over...

Move to somewhere where there's better looking people, the anxiety and stress will go away.

People are always going to stare if you are attractive so I think so

I think most people think they are paid attention to more than they think. The selfie era is upon us. Believe it or not people are attracted more to kind people than good looking people.

This I true nd social anxiety makes it seem like people are paying Attention when they aren’t too there’s s sort of paranoia that happens due to fear that they might be@SW-User

yeah, but the world will have no sympathy for people in that category. not from the ones who want your attention, and not from the ones who wish they could get the attention that you do.
