I’m a 20 yr old girl and I’ve never been approached when out, is that even a common thing that happens? Told someone that and they were so shocked

men don’t approach as much in general because they really don’t have to like they did before cellphones …. also if you look good or have a rbf or both they’ll assume you’re taken

Some guys pretend to be shocked because they want you to talk to them

I don’t think it’s that strange tbh

in my experience people only approach to ask you out in specific settings (creepy old men excluded). so I get asked out most often when I'm at work or while at school. I think most people try not to be rude and interrupting someone while they're trying to like walk to work or grocery shop probably doesn't feel great. so if you're never in any casual spaces then that's probably why

I’d consider myself at the upper end of average and I get drinks bought across the bar, people say I’m cute out and about or someone has something to say about my fit even if it’s bummy

but also even though I get complimented a lot very very rarely do I get asked out! I think it is just a change in culture where a lot of people our age just aren't approaching people in the wild. so I think it's very normal to not have been approached before!
