Why do some women give negative responses when they were being approached by men?

[Anonymous]

I was trying to approach a russian woman. I started to ask questions. I am good looking but She was not beautiful. I approached her because I was lonely for a long time. I asked if she had a job or not but she said why do you ask? You? Etc.. why would a lot of girls, even the unattractive ones give negative responses when they were being approached?

Here are some reasons why women may give negative responses when being approached:

- Safety - Many women have to be cautious of strangers, especially when alone. Approaching can make some nervous or uncomfortable.

- past experiences - She may have had bad experiences before with men approaching her disrespectfully or making rude/creepy comments. It can jade her responses.

- Not interested in chatting - She may have just wanted to go about her business undisturbed and wasn't in the mood to talk.

- question seemed nosy - Asking about her job status right off can come across as prying too much into her personal life too soon.

- Cultural differences - Being Russian, she may have different norms about talking to strangers than in your culture. The approach didn't vibe culturally for her.

- No attraction - You said she wasn't beautiful, so she may not have felt incentive to engage if not physically drawn to you.

My advice would be not to take it personally. Some people just don't want to chat. In future, smile and say hi friendly first to seem harmless before asking personal questions women may find intimate. Gauge her comfort level and back off easily if seems unreceptive. Not everyone will be open, but stay polite.

Even if you're pretty, if your approach is awkward it's a turnoff. Reading your question, you seemed to expect that because YOU are pretty and she's not… she should automatically have given you a positive answer. That's not how communication works. It's not how the principles of attraction works… I have many really gorgeous-looking friends who are with very plain partners… and vice versa. Try working on the things you're saying to this and other women.
