Some women dislike those approaches and some women like those approaches. It's possible this 'women say damn near every form of approaching them is a terrible idea' is you focusing on the negative and applying it to all/most women as a way to excuse your failures.

Either way women aren't a hive mind and just because some women don't want to be approached at work doesn't mean it won't work on other women.

Perhaps what one is 'supposed' to do is approach whoever and whenever it is wanted as in my experiences most men don't listen to what women don't want when it means limiting their chances at having sex.

I know like 20 girls


Every last goddamn one of them is one or a combination of the following

Has no single cute friends
Is too old so all her friends are too old
All her friends are taken
Has almost no female friends at all

Don't put me in that group


When I sense any sort of awkwardness like my presence is not welcome, I run about 500 miles the other way


I'm not in the business of making anybody feel uncomfortable and if they don't want me to talk to them, I can sense that right away

You're a lost cause. I don't know why anyone bothers to give you advice anymore.

The key isnt to 'approach' the key is to put yourself in a position to be standing next to her when light conversation can start. You might be on a supermarket line or a starbucks line and she could be behind you or in front of you or next to you...so, you're not 'walking up to her' you're just next to her and conversation breaks out. I would imagine that's a better way of meeting people rather than seeing someone across the room and making the long walk towards her.

I enjoy almost everything and I'm willing to try anything that I'm not currently into. I haven't gotten into reading yet but I want to do that in the near future

Not "dating value", but "first impression" value. And though you may not comprehend it, that's exactly what you have been talking about.
