Washington, Sept 4 : Tulisa Contostavlos believes that the reason she is single is because men are intimidated by her.

The 24-year-old, who has been single since splitting from ''Skins'' actor Jack O''Connell earlier this year, admitted that she would love to have a boyfriend.

''''There''s nowhere for me to meet anyone,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling LOOK magazine.

''''Men are scared of me and won''t approach me.

''''Even if I like someone and I''m fluttering my eyelashes, they still run a mile. So I wouldn''t have dates if I didn''t approach people.”

''''That''s why I go for really tough lads because only they can handle it,” she added.

The ‘X- factor’ judge successful in her TV and Pop career said that she would sacrifice everything for love.

''''Everything goes great in my career but my personal life has just been s**t,” she said

''''Fame and money - I don''t give a c**p about all that stuff.

''''If you could put me in a little house in the countryside with a picket fence, a husband, dogs and a family where I can feel love and happiness, I would trade that in a second.’ she added. (ANI)
