Why don't girls approach me?

[suprice]

Why don't girls approach me? I get a lot of girls smiling at me and making eye contact more then once, I find it hard to approach girls when others are watching.

It's a common question that plagues many men: why don't women approach them more? After all, if you're receiving smile after smile and prolonged eye contact from a woman, doesn't that mean she's interested?

Unfortunately, it's not always that simple. While it's true that a woman may be interested in you if she's smiling and making eye contact, there are other factors at play that may be preventing her from approaching you.

Let's take a look at some of the reasons why a woman may not approach a man, even if she seems interested.

1. She's shy

Shyness is a common reason why women don't approach men they're interested in. After all, it can be nerve-wracking to walk up to a stranger and start a conversation.

2. She's not sure if you're interested

Another common reason why women don't approach men is because they're not sure if the man is actually interested in them. She may be second-guessing herself and wondering if she's misreading your signals.

3. She doesn't want to be rejected

Of course, no one likes to be rejected, but women may be particularly worried about being rejected by a man they're interested in. The fear of rejection can be a powerful deterrent to approaching someone.

4. She's worried about what other people will think

Another reason why women may not approach men is because they're worried about what other people will think. She may be concerned about what her friends will say or whether people will think she's being forward.

5. She doesn't want to seem too available

In today's dating world, there is a lot of pressure on women to play it cool and not seem too interested. She may be worried that if she approaches you, she'll come across as desperate or needy.

So, there you have it: some of the reasons why a woman may not approach a man, even if she seems interested. If you're a man who's wondering why women don't approach you more, it could be any one of these reasons (or a combination of them).

Of course, the best way to find out if a woman is interested in you is to simply ask her. But if you're not ready for that just yet, keep an eye out for these signs. They just might give you the clues you need to make your move.

There's "would be nice...", and there's real life. In real life if you want to talk to a woman, you have to say hello.

You are the only one that can help that situation.

In order to have friends or a girlfriend, you must be pro-active and find friends. They will not just pop up in your life without you being involved in the relation. Best is to join a club, take a hobby where you can meet people with similar interests.

If you are good at one specific occupation, then see if you can find a club or place where others meet that share that passion. The rest will just fall automatically into place. Sharing the same interests with a person is always a good start to get to know that person better because you have common grounds.

But you have to work on yourself first. That would include shyness and social anxiety.

You can train your approach, your attitude and expression in front of a mirror for example. Think of what message you want to bring across and rehearse it until you are satisfied. The next step is the most difficult one and that is the one where you have to put in practice what you learned and rehearsed.

But without you wanting and acting upon it, nothing will ever happen. You have to get out of your comfort zone for it to happen. The most important is not to be afraid to fail. If you are rejected, get back onto your feet and try again.

Girls like being hunted and they have to sense desire to want you back

[cryscrys1]

I think instead of questioning what and if’s just go and say hi
you won’t lose anything
If the girl speaks to you first that’s good if not you try it. Who cares if they don’t talk back.. don’t take it seriously.

[Guy13]

Lot of people have this “kind smile” which is like saying hey 👋 but no time or energy to speak.

You have to force yourself to be brave. You could spend you whole life waiting.

[Chiarac2003]

Maybe they’re giving u the opportunity to go up and say hi or something. Be brave an sweet about it🎀

I've been rejected a lot in life. Dont like the feeling

[Uptowngirl88]

You're a man why should they be obligated to approach you?

[Anonymous]

maybe because you are 38 and girls are intimidated by older men.

[Agagagagaga]

Dude women aren’t going to approach you. It’s just not how they work.

[WhitneySnow]

Maybe they’re shy. Girls get shy too.

[hostboy__fastestlaps]

Just hit the gym or find a park nearby

[Iron_Man]

[Wise4myage]
