For women: How do you feel about men approaching you in bars/clubs/parties? As a woman, I always felt it was a good thing, but in online spaces I’ve seen others saying they don’t like it.

it depends on how you approach but the main problem is men not going away nicely when u reject them the first time

always the how. it’s so common for them to do it in a disrespectful way, and especially when they take advantage of intoxication. but they always scare me anyway when it happens 😭

I like it as it can be a confidence boost, but some guys are creepy and scary too

Omg yes, or when they try to start a whole conversation, not picking up on the signals that you’re not interested in talking, but also not just getting to the point and asking for your information, they’re just… talking at you 😭

No offense but this is human interaction, it’s not like there’s a handbook I can give you. I can tell you that if you’re talking to a girl and she’s only answering your questions, not putting effort into the conversation, barely looking at you, turned away from you, these are pretty good signs that she’s not interested in continuing to talk. Another good sign is if she says “no thanks” when you ask her out
