I don't mean for hookups by the way... Is it because she finds him attractive and " safe " and he gave her the right vibes she doesn't get from most guys she meets? Is it mainly about the looks? Is it because he fits her type and she doesn't meet a lot of those very often? People ( including girls) say that girls don't do that with just anybody and I'm trying to understand it... Also because I often find myself in that situation with different types of girls so I wanna what's exactly the reason behind it...
Do you mean approach like, walk up and chat or do you mean approach like, flirt with or ask out? It is two different things although there may be some things in common.
For the first, walk up and chat, OK so let's imagine I am waiting for the driver license agency to open or a store to open or something, and I am standing w a group of strangers outside while I wait. If I just stand there I might have the last person I would pick walk up and start chatting and not be able to politely get away, so sometimes to avoid that, I will start chatting with the most normal looking, ideally married or engaged, guy just to prevent other situations. It is not flirting at all kind of the opposite.
As for approaching a guy for the purpose of flirting, I don't really do that but I have seen other girls do it, and it is just that she's attracted to him pretty much, which could be for many reasons. JMO!

Asker+1 ySo she's just attracted to him? That simple? I mean everyone gets attracted to a lot of people all the time but they don't act on it, Especially if it's a stranger.. And especially if you're a woman... You get what I'm saying? Maybe I'm just thinking too much about it... I'm trying to figure out why it happened by very different sometimes opposite types of girls with me...

Yeah I can't think of any one factor except that the guys all are approachable I guess. Sometimes it is a cool guy who is smooth talking and laughing w everybody, sometimes it is a shy but friendly guy, it is never a scary looking or acting guy that I have noticed but, I can't think of a lot else they have in common sorry.
Asker+1 yLmao... I'm the antisocial quiet one... I don't talk to anyone first... And I don't look approachable at all but more like in my own lane... But of course I'm very friendly once you talk to me and get to know me...

Yes all the reasons you quoted, what do they ask when they approach you? Are they flirting? Girls don’t approach or are not interested in approaching often but many are quite confident they will not get rejected by a man so they may try to flirt. Or maybe you look incredibly friendly and like a fun person to be around and have charism.

Asker+1 yThey just strike up a conversation about anything before asking me out but it always works... They're far better than guys... sooo smooth lol... Yeah they're flirting and they keep a really strong eye contact and smiling or blushing... Yeah I get it that but most of them actually didn't seem to pay attention to the other guys around, so they're not that flirty in general... And no lol.. I'm always alone and I look disconnected from the others most of the time... the " quiet " guy, you know... But I'm very friendly once you interact with me yes... Yeah I guess you can say I'm charismatic but is it that strong? I do have a mysterious vibe going on... Is it the x factor? Do women just love it?

m +1 ysince most of my ex-girlfriends, and girls that are friends approached me first, we've talked about and according to their answers... it is a combination of things
more than anything, a mix of intrigue/interesting... and also the looks
equally important were the vibes, and the approachable attitude as well... and also, the settings, the place (either school or party/reunions/social places like bars, clubs)
in my case, looks are distinctive rather than trendy/fashionable... and consider the approachable attitude a healthy amount of confidence, presence and a balanced "social energy" not too much of an extrovert or an introvert...
and that always funny hints of '"I don't know what vibes" lol10 Reply
+1 yHe's her type of guy he looks friendly and open he could be funny she likes his style of apparel yes she finds him extremely attractive. His style of guy just might be in season right now. And let's not forget the tall dark mysterious bit that's always a thing to women.

Asker+1 yYes... And yeah the mysterious thing is spot on... Women seriously like it when the guy is like that...

534 opinions shared on Girl's Behavior topic. Energy. I don't know how to explain it, but I've only approached 2 complete strangers. I don't pay attention to others when I'm out and only go on dates with people I'm already familiar with. So if someone attracts my attention its a big deal. It just comes down to energy and somehow being drawn to them.

Confidence energy or they're quirky/artsy/creative energy? I just wondered 😃

+1 yIn order for me to approach a guy, he has to be kind and inclusive and humble. Also I approach cooperative people that do not have a problem with me initiating contact. If he is resistant, I won’t even say hi to him, much less approach him.

Asker+1 yI see
+1 yYea you already answered your own question lol it comes down to finding someone interesting or attractive, which is why men will approach certain women.

Hmm maybe women do approach a man if they're really thinking he's worth not saying not saying hello to 😬☺️
The guys I have approached were because:
. I found them gorgeous and just had to tell them.
. We were in a familiar environment with people we both knew around and it gave me something to talk about.

Asker+1 yDang.. I think that was true with a couple of them
+1 yShe likes him and really wants to see if she has a chance.
20 ReplyI am the shy one, and all the guys I have been with approached me. I had another 20 who approached me but I told them no and that I already had a boyfriend, and yet that was true only 1/3 the time.
00 ReplyProbably fits her type of guy that she would go for. I would but knowing I get rejected a lot I would cower away and pray he might come to me.

Not always. Funny though. But no, they could earnestly just want directions somewhere or want to know the time of day. Ah well. 😃
- +1 y
Some people choose to be stuck in the past or anti-tech, believe me, I've been asked for directions a few times in recent years and months. People are just lazy or don't like tech.
I don’t approach men
