My last post helped me realize what I meant to say:

Regular people often give "zero" or "almost-zero" attention to most strangers here.
Very-attractive young adults seem to tend to give "zero" exclusively.

Guys like this make obvious efforts to ignore me too,
and all I want to do is kill the silence, pass some time and make small talk
and they're often "all ice too"
I'm not gay or bi-curious, what's up with that?
I'm obviously not trying to flirt with them.

Or maybe in Toronto, opening your mouth counts as flirting.

I knew what you meant, people have a hard time seeing things through other peoples' perspectives. I know how the people, especially the women are over there. There is nothing wrong with wanting women to be receptive to your verbal game. Or just in general people just being friendly in general.

People have problems these days, you would not catch me living in Toronto. You have enough to deal with in terms of the cold weather. People keep on giving women excuses for acting like b*tch** always blaming the man. I expect women to act like grown a** women, if they show me respect, I show them respect. Simple. This goes for interactions with males too. If a cat does not show you respect, then he gets no respect.

If someone is acting unfriendly, it's there way of putting up a mental wall or forcefield up around themselves. They are letting the people around them know that they aren't at all interested in meeting or talking to them.

How about you show some respect for them and just leave those unfriendly people alone? They just aren't interested in meeting you. Respect their personal space and walk away. Go meet people that are interested in meeting you, stop trying to force your company on those who obviously don't want it.

You get offended because you are exactly the type of person(woman) that I was describing. Why are you always so damn angry on these forums? I doubt it if I would find you to be a warm person.

I do not think the original poster is wanting EVERY person to give him smiling faces and high fives but he sees that a big majority seems "cold". I know what he is talking about in reference to people in Toronto, ESPECIALLY the women. That is why I told him of other better places, so that like you said he could RESPECT those who would not talk to him and find other people who are interested in talking to him.

I agree with you that if a person does not want to talk, then you should give them their space. First thing I have agreed with you on but there is no reason for so many people to act that way. Compare Toronto to Houston and it is like night and day in regards to outward friendliness.

I still love you miu.

I think a lot of women find that most men misinterpret their kindness as being a sign of interest. As result, women will carry themselves with a more serious and direct manner so as not to mislead anyone.
