Guys are you always hesitant about approaching a woman?

[Anonymous]

For what reasons?

[XXTruthfulOgrexx]

Why? we get blasted daily with the message from women, social media and SJWarriors,

DO NOT APPROACH WOMEN, WE DO NOT WANT MEN APPROACHING US.

This is the same BS mixed messages we are constantly having to try to read minds. IT is just too much drama to deal with so we have just chosen to walk away.

If I don't approach it's because I don't know yet if I'm actually interested.

It's not hesitation for me, it's just that if I approach a stranger, I know nothing about them, so my mind isn't on relationships/dating when doing so, it's on asking directions or how much something costs or "wanna join us for the match? we need 1 more person" or some other current task.

The women who have a chance to get my romantic attention, are either on a dating site (or other online platform) spilling their entire selves on their bio while also having revealing pictures, or they are best friends I've known for years. In either case, I need info to be interested.

But a woman I know nothing about? I don't want her thinking I'm interested. Nowadays you can't even say hi to a woman in person without her assuming it's to ask her out. The level of ego these women have is crazy, and I'm just thinking to myself, bitch, I don't know you, calm down, it was just a "hi", I'm just being polite to strangers.

Not every woman reacts that way thankfully, some just say hi back, a quick exchange of info about the current situation happens, and then we go our separate ways, like normal human beings.

My question is why do so many women think them merely existing is a reason to ask them out?

You gotta prove to me you're worth asking out first 😂 I'm not gonna ask out every physically attractive woman I see on the street, no one has that kind of time unless they're boring/have no life.

not really. tbh i just find myself being hardly interested in women. i am sexually into women but the girls i end up meeting are not really all that compelling to me.

[robhazelnut]

As far as I can tell, interested women would want me to move and I'd rather not.

[likeodds]

Women say that but many are hiding it really. And also they know that anybody can approach them anytime, anywhere which is not good. They are not sitting there for you only

I'm sure I share this mindset with a lot of men in which I don't want to risk violating her boundaries or not wanting to make her feel uncomfortable.

[BourbonAndBacon]

No. I don't believe all the nonsense.

Afraid of being turned down.
