Why girls act defensive around me?

I'm a nice easy going guy who's really friendly with everyone. I try to joke around smile and have fun with friends. Most of my guy friends really like me and enjoy my company and i have also been told that i'm quite attractive or handsome by parents, strangers and other family members. The problem is that i try to be as friendly with girls as with guys but they seem to act really defensive with me keeping me away making me think that they are rejecting me as a potential lover

while all i just wanted is to be friendly, widen my social circle and have them as just simple friends. Never really meant to even flirt with them. But looks like they take it the wrong way. I even had a girl getting angry and putting up walls while i was just trying to tease her in a funny friendly none threatening way.
