I am now interested in how you guys feel and how you behave when you have to go through a group of girls.
(Sorry if there are mistakes in the sentences. My English is not that good.)
(The picture is not mine)
My thing is that regardless if its a group of girls or boys, men or women they are still in a group so i try to just go around so as not to disturb there get together. Like the only tome I would need to walk through their group is probably if they are blocking/crowding an entrance to a place that im trying to enter. In that situation I simply say “excuse me”, and walk through them to continue my business.
I don’t feel one way or the other about it though. I give common courtesy by going around them to show a very small amount of respect if possible, but beyond that if they are in the way or crowding an area I simply say “excuse me” as a vocal courtesy, and continue on my way regardless if its threw their group or not.
In summary i don’t really feel anything about it one way or the other, and i may go around if possible, and or walk threw with an “excuse me” statement, but thats just being courteous/respectful to the fact that there are other people, and doesn’t effect how I feel or don’t feel what so ever.
Well, it's rude to walk between people no matter who they are. So unless it can't be avoided, most people will walk around. If they have to go through, just say excuse me and squeeze through. Not a big deal.
I don’t look at them. I kinda just look ahead without making any eye contact unless they are talking to me. I try my hardest not to physically touch them because I don’t like people touching me at all.
It's pretty awkward to walk through a group of guys staring at you and calling you hot
Yes I know. Im always scared when im alone and then there are those boys who always do that🙈
yeah, I know right, there is a lot of boys that do that, It's happened to me before 🤦♀️😳
yes and I need to go alone trough alleyways in the afternoon. And they dont even stop if I tell them I have a boyfriend. They just dont stop🙈 Now im always phoning with my best friend or my boyfriend because then i feel saver
GIRL, same, I've even had guys asking me if I have a boyfriend and some even catcall and i'm like WTH. so, all I do, is just run past them or pretend I don't notice or hear them
yeah i tried that but then they followed me and if they saw that i am phoneing someone then they left me alone.😅
haha 😂 they probably thought you were calling the police, so that's probably why
yeah😂
and there was this one time where they said things like ''hello there cutie why dont you come with us'' and i just looked at them surprised and said: ''Wait, you can see me? Your not supposed to see me'' and then they looked scared and ran away😂😂😂
OMG, I can't believe you said that, that's funny.😂let's see , there was this one time, there was this guy in Burlington. we were visiting family and there was this guy, checking out my cousin, you know. smiling, goggly eyes I don't know what, she's 1 or 2 years younger than me and I was 14 and he was 16 so I just straight up started talking to him and I don't get what I said that was funny, but he was laughing at everything I said. And me and her started talking about it later and laughing.
Lol okay at least he left you alone afterwards👍
yeah i was laughing after they ran away that was the funniest thing i've ever done🙈 but i never did that again🤷♀️
there was also this one time, I was walking with my sis, and a bunch of guys were all staring at me and one of them was like: oh, she's hot," and they were all oh yeah, she is. and I looked at him and I was like: "Excuse me, say what?" he was then like: "okay, never mind," he then got scared and they all ran away as fast they could 😂
and yeah, at least he did
lol😂
yeah there are many of those guys.. thanks for being normal 😁 not many boys think like you

Depends on my previous experiences with them, if it was a group of girls I got along with and I was passing by them then I would just say hello and talk for a bit and go to where I need to be.
If it was a group of girls containing a girl I had a recent crush on then I would likely greet them all, including the recent crush, and then walk off, I would not stick around for a long conversation.
If it was a group I had bad experiences with then I would just walk around them and go to where I wanted to be and if they tried to talk to me then I would say I would be late to where I wanted to be and if they held me up I would throw them under the bus.
If it was a group of random girls I don't know then I would just do my own thing, I have no reason to focus on them, I am busy with other things and if we don't even know each other there is no reason for me to stop and say hello.
I don't feel nervous about approaching groups of girls unless it contains a girl that I recently had a strong crush on or had confessed to and things did not go well, it would make the atmosphere awkward, other than that I treat a female group the same as a guy group, just people at the end of the day and there is no reason to be nervous about it.
But I do also want to point out that I fully agree with @WindAtMyBack in that it is very rude to walk through people, I would always walk around a group of girls and people in general.
I don't flirt with girls that pop up in my group or when I walk through their groups, the most I might do is say I like their hair and just complimenting them, I make it very clear in fact by verbally stating that I am only complimenting them and not trying to flirt.
In my college a lot of girls like to colour their hair very vibrant colours so I often get captivated by the variety of choices so I like to point it out and tell them I think it looks good :)
This might be one of those situations where what girls experience versus what guys experience is radically different and women have fear where a man never would.
As a man, if I'm walking through a group of women (a situation which I can't really see happening to begin with unless it's a very narrow hallway) then it's very simple: I'm just walking forward. And I'm a big fuckin' guy so people tend to move for me.
I've had situations where I'm walking alone at night and I happen to be walking behind a woman and it suddenly occurs to me 20 mins later that she's scared of the big fuckin' tattooed guy behind her... when in reality I'm just goin' home and it never really occurs to me because in my mind I'm still 12.
If I am not walking near a bar or a club I don't give it a second thought... on the other hand If there are a group of women outside a bar or club (depending how loud they are) I will in most cases cross the street.
It is not because I am afraid for my safety, no it is because women when under the influence tend to blow things out of proportion. example... I had a woman ask me for the time... simple enough right? Well in her inebriated state she forgot to mention that her and her boyfriend just had a big fight 10 min. earlier, and the fight was over her talking to strange men!!
But if the women are sober, I find all of them to be pleasant nonintrusive.
It depends- if I'm alone then I might either not make eye contact at all or just wave to a couple of them to be polite, but if I'm with my girlfriend then she'll definitely be the one waving and we might even end up talking to them for a few minutes about their choice of outfits or where they live :) Usually it's not too awkward for me, though, unless if they're purposely making it awkward for me and staring me down and smiling or something like that, lol :)
Girls are really scary, because they're just so weird. I never could figure them out, and I still haven't a clue as to what it is that makes them the way they are. You know, irrational and overly-emotional, and all touchy-feely, and into relationships (whatever they are), and how they won't give you the time of day unless you're rich and look like a movie star or model. They're basically...
Like has already been stated, generally try to go round out of courtesy, but if there is no other way round then you got to go through.
A polite "excuse me" as you approach the group making it obvious that you intention is to cut through them actually communicates a lot:
1st - your in the way and the only way to were I need to get to is through
2nd - I am not looking for a fight and I am sorry if I am inconveniencing you but I have to get through.
3rd - in the unlikely event, you are met with hostility from the group as you approach them you worked this out prior to being in the middle of them. Placing you in a better stratigic position if it does get ugly.
I haven't had to do that in a while but walking through groups of people in general isn't so bad. But if I have to walk through a group of girls I usually get nervous and my heart rate will get faster cause I get worried about bumping into someone or getting touched intentionally, that has never happened though. I have walked through a group of teenage girls before when I was in high school and they were cat calling me and stuff, it was really weird and made me uncomfortable.
Around.
Always around lmao.
I always just try not to make them think I'm being weird about anything personally.
I don't want any of them to feel uncomfortable.
I'm not too great in social settings, so I will usually put in my headphones or pull up my phone and pretend I'm busy or focused on something else.
My eye contact is appalling, so I'll usually just look in the complete opposite direction as I'm passing them.
I assume I probably look like I'm just being rude, but I just really don't want to give off the wrong vibe.
My brain: Coming across rude and disinterested is better than creepy right? Lol
In high school I would have been really intimidated, kept my head down, and tried to walk around them. Now, I'd have a feeling of confidence, look the girl right in the eye that was in my way, say "Excuse me, just passing through." and go on my way. It wouldn't bother me if they giggled or made some comment about me. I'm courteous, but afraid of them anymore.
Yeah I normally try and avoid a group of girls because one if them will start giggling and say something and then they will all start laughing and that can be mildly embarrassing. But I suppose I sometimes enjoy the attention too, recently there was a group of girls who did NOT do this, and I was a little bit disappointed! 😄
I can say that I’m a really confident guy so for me it’s not make any difference, when I enter the room in my mind is like I’m the king, everything belongs to me and I can have any girl that I want. I just walk and do my things that I have to do.
Suddenly every possible thing that I could knit pick about myself even if imagined becomes a reality in my head and even looking at oneakes me feel like they could at anytime say I'm being a creeper and boom my day is bad because it could make another stranger snap at me on viewpoint even if I'm just suuuuuper stoned and walking around bored. Either that or I avoid going through I'd much rather walk around and give at least a mater and a half distance so they can't pull any BS like that
I've never had a problem with this, unless...
- It's 1 group formed of a few girls, I don't go through them, it's just rude and ill mannered.
- I've been working and am all sweaty or somehow overly dirty.
I usually feel a bit of an ego boost depending on their reaction but most often I can feel them checking me out or there's the other signs like getting a little quieter or giggly right after I'm a little ways away. It's kind of fun, honestly.
I used to get a little self conscious and a bit nervous a while ago if I had to walk through a group of girls or even any girl who seems to be watching me.
Now I’m totally comfortable in ANY OF those situations
I usually felt awkward and just ignored them but I'm trying to be more open a friendly ^^ Sometimes I feel like I'm destined to be a loner for life though :/
Only semi awkward if one is hot. But that's more to do with just attractive girls. Than it been a group. Really not bothered about walking through a group.
I feel awkward as fuck. I can feel the negative thoughts radiating from girls. I don't want to be the subject of their insults, and I doubt they want to be near me either. I usually do anything to avoid being around large groups of girls.
roll my eyes and ignore them. Young girls tend to irritate me.
Lol since im single I most likely wouldn't mind.
If they are sexy beautiful and smart its a plus.
I normally dont think to much into those things. Not worried if there's a bunch of girls. I can handle myself.
