Actress Dakota Johnson feels men are scared to ask her out because of her role of a college graduate who has a sadomasochistic relationship with young business magnate in 2015 erotic romantic drama film ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’.

The 26-year-old has been single since splitting from Drowners rocker Matt Hitt last year and is worried why men don’t approach her, reports IANS.

 ‘Some people think this is something I’m interested in, in my private life, which is not the case.

‘I’m an actor, I pretend. But I guess it’s something that happens with a lot of actors; people think that, in real life, they are like the characters they play’, said Johnson referring to the racy scenes in the movie, reports mirror.co.uk.

However, Johnson says she is too busy concentrating on her career to worry about men.

‘My life has changed dramatically. There are times that I feel lonely, but then I just watch movies and read books and I’m happy that I have the time to do those things. I cherish my solitude,’ she said.

‘Luckily I have such a distraction in my job, I don’t think about men very often. All of my focus is on my job at the moment,’ she added.
