When is the best time and best place to approach a women you find attractive. I don’t want to look like a creep.

In public, in a social setting. College dining hall, school cafeteria, random coffee shop, party, club, grocery store, sports event where she is NOT competing, etc. Don’t approach people who are clearly busy or alone/vulnerable. Earbuds are a universal sign of leave-me-alone. People locked in exercising or studying don’t want their focus broken. Walking alone at night, I look at guys as either a threat or not a threat, so that’s a bad time for sure.

At an event or something, just be friendly and not pushy you know

I feel it depends on the woman. For me, I don’t mind if I’m at the gym, grocery store or work. Shoot your shot king 👑

it genuinely depends, like if someone approaches me at the gym while im working out and asks for my number thats fine, but if someone is standing a while staring, comes up and is breathing heavily or really fidgeting, and then asks not making eye contact, thats creepy

Eh, some people like to be friendly and social in the gym. But DEFINITELY do not approach someone in the middle of an exercise, or someone who has earbuds in. I’d say, only approach people in the gym if they are clearly making friendly talk. Or if you need a spotter or something gym related.

How you approach matters just as much. “I’m attracted to you” or “I think you’re cute” is much more respectful than “Nice ass” or other catcall-ish things. And if they ask you to leave, leave. Just like, basic respect.

This is mostly good advice except for that “I’m attracted to you” would make me run for the hills
