In general, false. This is a pretty common opinion:

Gotta disagree here. It takes one person to prove an ABSOLUTE false. One person trying to disprove a generalization is what makes it a generalization and NOT an absolute.

As mentioned, they don't have to. But for what it's worth, some do. Come to Phoenix during Spring Training. There's only so many baseball players to go around, and then who's left? You!

Women that go to Wal-Mart and ask a man to get them something off of a high shelf, but he'd get it, then walk back to his wife.

When you join groups and go places to meet women, chances are, you have women there looking to meet guys as well. A woman may approach you, if not, go to them-if you want them bad enough.

It's not rocket science.
So true, all of it! Some women may go to the hardware store, because that's where the guys are. Other women go to car shows. Some join skeet-shooting ranges. Most join more ordinary activities, like local parks trail maintenance volunteer crews, Habitat For Humanity, folk/salsa/swing dance evenings, enviro or political action orgs, local sports leagues, meetups, photography classes, etc. Women do these things due to their own interest, but they also do this hoping to meet men. This is what women do to meet men.

Since when do you have a gf? You've been posting for weeks/months that you're not going to approach another woman, and you need "down time" from the last relationship debacle.

In his thread about getting an escort, he posted that he recently had sex with some girl he met. So, they';re dating now I guess.

I've had a girlfriend for almost a week now. I met her in my college class. Went on 3 dates, spent labor day together, and we both decided we wanted to become exclusive. That's how it happened.

There's no approaching to be done, if you're seeing the same women weekly and are having conversations with them while participating in shared activities. You're already mingling with them and talking with them. A spark will either happen at some point with one of them, or it won't. "Approaching" isn't relevant. That's the whole point.
