I get stared at a lot on the streets but I've only been approached for my number 3 times.
So my question is why do men just stare at women who pass them by? But don't say anything? It's quite uncomfortable and I get awkward when people stare at me and I don't know why. I just think "are they staring because I look strange? or have I got something on my face?"
The incentive is in the action itself. Looking at a beautiful woman pleases the senses. It is also quite possible that a man is not available and does not want anything else than look. Of course, it would be best to avoid actual staring.
If he is available it can still be a bit of an obstacle to talk to a woman just because she is pretty. I would always try to find a different reason to talk to her, like for example at an art exhibition talk about what we are looking at. Of course, that seldom works in the streets. I think it's then best to actually admit that she caught your eye because she is beautiful. It's the only thing you know about her at that point so it's honest. And then you want to know more about her which also helps make it ok as it is then not about beauty only anymore.
Studies have shown that virtually ALL men fail in at least one of the following 4 interactions with women:
1. They look, admire, and are definitely attracted, but fail to do anything to start a conversation.
2. They can start a conversation, but fail to ask for a date or phone number. These are the annoying guys that "hang around" all the time.
3. They fail to initiate the first kiss.
4. They fail to initiate or recognize the opportunity for sex.
Most males fail 1 and 2. It helps to recognize the guys that are failing to cross the required bridge and bump them in the right direction.

Imagine a world where every man who found a woman attractive tried to get her number.
Women would be so sick of men that government would have to make anti ask for phone number laws.
We look because women are beautiful to look at. It seems like women don't understand this and I can't imagine how you don't get that.
I also can't imagine why you don't get that men don't go around asking every single female for their number. That's just insane. It's not civil. It's not normal to just run around flirting and hitting on every cute girl you see.
Lots of reasons.
My #1 reason was that I wanted to remain a bachelor. Unfortunately, my future-wife entered my world and changed all that.
There are so many more reasons, but not because I don't think a woman is desirable.
They are.
I’m not sure what you mean by incentive? There’s usually no cost to looking at someone. To be honest there’s even less reason to put yourself out there with creepy cold approaches. We’ve been told repeatedly that women don’t like being stared at, approached, talked to or asked out in public, so most men stopped. Though staring is more of a biological instinct.
Is that what you want? I stare because they are beautiful to me. Should I approach and ask fir your number. Brief contact walking by seems a bit aggressive to me. I would think most would not take it well.
I have plenty of times in stores where the gal seems nervous and stats around me and also brief passing. Should I just go for it?
For the same reason women put so much time, effort, and money into making themselves worth looking at: because the human brain's reward centers are stimulated by certain behaviors, so they're more likely to do them.
I stare because the girl looks kinda nice, that doesn't mean i'm interested in something with her, besides i sometimes stare just to see a reaction
They want the numbers, but most don't have the balls to ask for it.
I'm really shy around women I like and a normally introverted person. I have next to no experience approaching girls. Women stare at me all the time but I can only a few have even said word to me.
They assume that women in the street are not interested in being approached, and most of them aren't.
Looking through options I guess, there's many women out there, can't get every attractive woman's number when you see them.
Nothing short cicuits girls more than someone staring at them, or someone not liking them...😂😂
Don't know, but I am glad they do. Any decrease in the competition helps me out.
Their is no incentive, but lots of frustration.
Because men don't wanna be called harassers and get sexual harassment charges
Taking in the sights as much as they can before it disappears
Because most of them are probably married lol
Can lead to assuming stalking
Why bother asking? She'll say no anyway.
Self awareness
