Genuine question: Why do guys not seem to show interest irl. I think I’m decently attractive I just don’t have guys come up to me really. Is there anything I can to do be more approachable by guys?

I think a lot of guys have frankly abandoned the cold approach out of a desire not to be creepy lmao

It’s widely considered inappropriate to approach women outside dating apps nowadays, even if you only ask once

Dating app removed the need to approach at all ever, both ppl know they’re interested and it takes away some of the shittiest parts of dating

For me at least, I’m just not interested in people I barely know so I don’t approach women even if I find them physically attractive

Pretty girl scary and most likely has a bf so it doesn’t seem worth it

I watched my hb go up to girl to say hi and try to throw game but before he could say much she said "keep walking". A lot of dudes are js scared of the rejection, my hb took it to the chin and was super respectful abt it.

Yeah I wasn’t one of those in my later single college days, but I definitely was for a while before I had a roommate who was like “you gotta play the numbers game and approach women, you’ll get a lot of Nos, but the Yes will be worth it, just accept the Nos the first time and you’re not a creep” and I adopted that shit lmao

I’ve been in a happy relationship for a few years now, hence those days being over

I only disagree with the last part of your post, asking girls once is fine, asking after that is where it becomes an issue.

I’ve actually had girls come back to me because I accepted the first No and respected it
