Well, one way would be to go to a club and dress like a tramp if you really want to try it out.

In most cases no one can do anything about men approaching a certain type.

FWIW I have never been approached and asked out on a date IRL. I think if women want the companionship they shouldn't expect the man to (almost) always make the first move. Frankly I never understood that and despite past efforts here the reason has never been explained to me.

Is this a metaphor?

I've got a few dates just talking to women on the chairlift or at the checkout line.

Basically, make people remember your name. That's all it takes! All you need to be is at least average looking. Everyone can work enough at the gym to be average looking.
This is the right attitude to get more dates. I am very friendly, which is why I get approached often. It's not that I am so hot or anything. I look like a woman who is friendly. Some people think I am bragging, but I'm not that great...I just smile a lot. if you have a beautiful woman who gives off a grumpy vibe and a fairly attractive woman who is friendly...guess who will get more dates?

a boyfiend -> cautiously approach
a husband -> still worth a try...
a husband holding a gun -> approach later


shouldn't be too hard for women to get approached;
step 1: step outside your door.
step 2: inhale air so you don't suffocate before approach is made.
done.
Lmao, this pretty much sums it up
Just within the past 3 days, I've had more than a few men approach,
(including while I was driving)
- each one gave me reasons 1 thru 5 on your list
I like to ask why they think they can just randomly stop someone, since I'm by nature pretty shy.

And I agree with this, too-
I never have my face stuck in a laptop, a stupid phone, etc. in public.
Latest dude I met, I met in a bookstore 2 days ago.
he came up to me & asked me to watch his stuff while he got coffee.
Lol that wound up being a ploy, bc when he came back of course things progressed

Who are 'all these women' and have you thought about leaving the house and being around people in groups and events and summer festivities and festivals coming up with a high ratio of people?


Plus, are we talking quantity or quality here?


People watch your interactions with other people like your friends. Are you a sour puss or conversational, laugh a lot are your arms crossed or open are you one to touch someone to get their attention are you happy or do you look like you have an attitude look? All those silent things can be killers to someone approaching you.

I can't give you another good rep, I've done it too much, but, I DO think this is the correct answer to this question.

More power to you.

I'm attracted to ladies that are friendly and smile. And I don't interpret friendliness and smiles as a hint that they're into me. That would be pretty presumptuous on my part if I did. I'm more likely to approach someone like yourself because it is an attractive trait.

My friend's girlfriend gave me a hard time about this just last week. We were at a brewery and I had a casual conversation with a stranger. Nothing flirtatious or anything and not a big deal. Anyway, after we left I got an earful from her saying "WHY DIDN"T YOU DO ANYTHING?? SHE WAS TOTALLY INTO YOU!" My response was "You know what?.. Some people are just nice. Plain and simple."
