I have never done the "approaching women" thing. My thing is, if I do not get a choosing signal from a woman, I will not approach her. I find it a waste of time doing so, therefore I refrain and refuse.
for me personally it’s the whole not wanting kids/marriage thing. if it’s just hooking up and hanging out in the short term when women are younger they don’t really care but long term the vast majority of them want marriage/kids.
A- C- E are all really parts of the same thing- getting up nerve! After that, if there is any hope for a relationship, the rest should be easy.

I voted A but C is very closely related.
It's interesting so many girls voted A and C considering they are not the ones who make the initial approach and risk rejection, so I'm not sure what that's about.
The sheer effort that a man is supposed to put in. Women, thanks to social media and dating options have so much perceived options that they dont even bother giving an effort.

For me it's mixture of fearing rejection and the approach. I can keep conversations going as long as someone else starts them.
I don’t date rn cause pandemic and all but judging from my moms experience with men it’s finding a man that doesn’t harbor ulterior motives
I think just being alone and conversating the first time. I’m awkward as hell xD but after that I can be pretty chill to talk with and open minded.

Staying focused on what your date has too say can help you generate stimulating conversation by asking questions based on what she or he has too say.
For me it’s getting close and vulnerable with someone. Letting them see all of my flaws

I struggle with whether or not I am attractive enough, good enough, smart enough which can sometimes frustrate the other person.

For me when I was dating it was the combination of the the initial approach & fear of rejection.
Getting past stereotypes of what the other gender wants and the fact that I am ace/do not want children
The part of motivating myself to actually go on dates.
Why do you think that's hard for you?
A combination of intitial approach and fear of rejection.
Hence i just don't approach at all.

Probably rejection, initial approach, and beliefs on what the other sex wants blah blah
I agree with your update. I hardly ever find anyone who meets my requirements so any dating almost all just becomes casual.
Understanding the second party that’s involved and you can never tell their intention, fake people everywhere
keeping things going. They always fall off after a couple months.
Combination of A and B and I believe it's like that for a large portion of the male population
