My husband was in a class with me. We became acquaintances but didn't share a social circle. I went back to England and we ran into each other in the States later. We became friends and then started dating.
I dated cold approaches. Friends always tried to match me up with "sexy". More like testosterone overdose. Guys from their gym who spent too much time lifting weights. They looked like they might accidentally squash me.
Is it a cold approach when you're both strangers and you just ended up talking to her, not really looking for anything? Then maybe it's happened once in recent memory.
If I think about relationships lasting a year or longer, two were cold approaches, one worked at the grocery store I went to and we chatted anytime I was there, another I worked with his mom, my ex-husband was a former coworker, and my SO (fiance) is a friend of a friend. So it's a crapshoot, but after my ex left, I found being back in the dating world after 14 years was quite frightening so I was glad to meet someone who was "known" to a friend of mine.
I thought the social question referred to meeting someone due to common interests. I met my ex fiance in kung fu class, met ex hubby when he worked tech support at our uni, met another guy at a friend's house, stuff like that.
In all cases, we knew each other for a while before we got into a relationship. Nothing cold about it .

I've made a ton of guy friends in those ways, but nothing ever panned out into a relationship. I'm just not seen that way by most men

This just goes to show the practicality of taking classes, especially gym-related classes. I wish more guys realized this, instead of thinking that bars/clubs are where you meet women.
