Don't be a wimp.
You're basically saying that they should muster the courage, while you cannot...or do not want to.
It is definitely not my idea to initiate contact with these people! This is 100% on them.
They are like "Hey I think it would be cool to talk to this guy who's on his phone right here checking for the bus every once in a while, I think I will just walk around in his field of vision for a bit"
Meanwhile I'm looking at my phone reading about football trying to focus on the story of a juicy transfer rumour when all of a sudden I realize this person exists and is initiating some sort of a mating ritual from another species
So now not only do I need to pay attention to the football story and my bus, but also this potential new social and/or romantic storyline that involves me. Just to be clear this is a really juicy transfer rumour and the bus is due to arrive in a couple minutes
If you want to talk to me, just talk to me. I'm a busy guy, if I'm out in public I'm usually out on a mission from A to B. Yeah, every once in a while I will see a cute girl I will approach her and talk to her, when I have the time and inclination to do so. It happens from time to time.
But if you're throwing all this on my face, don't presume for me to play by your stupid rules. Either talk to me or just stand off to the side and wait for the bus like everyone else. Yeah I can see half your arse hanging out of your shorts, that's great, good for you, now I've got a bus to catch so you missed your window of opportunity for human contact. I'm more than content to continue doing what I was doing, it's not like any of this was my idea in the first place
It could be not so much that she's a dullard, as that many people just don't really know how to meet people that they are interested in.You might be missing out, not because she's not worth knowing, but because she doesn't know how to approach you.
Yeah I know that, but the best way to get my romantic attention is to make me think you're attractive. And doing that does the opposite, so I'm almost never interested as a result.
I can totally appreciate that it's not easy to approach people. I almost never approach people myself, because it's just not a fun activity for me. I can do it well enough, but it's sort of like eating grapefruit. I can do it, but it's not something I seek out
The way my personality is wired what I would do is just eventually walk up to one of these girls, introduce myself, then get in real close, put my hand around her shoulder, and gently whisper "Excuse me miss, but your butt is hanging out", then just walk away into the night
But that would make me a jerk so I'll never do that again
