I have approached at least 85 women this year. Stopped doing it in June as 1) I felt it was a really ineffective way to meet people, especially women, and 2) my dad told me I'm just wasting my time trying to meet women this way. I haven't gotten any negative reactions from approaching, at best the women have seemed really indifferent and don't really care. In theory, it seems to me that although my extroverted nature would help in approaching, so far in practice, the Singaporean culture appears to be too introverted when meeting people in this context. I feel as though I'm fighting a uphill battle in this area. That being said, I have made time to meet people in interest groups and even got on an app where I meet 5 random people for dinner every Wednesday as part of my social life. Nonetheless, I can't just leave it to interest groups and dinners to meet new people. I'm feeling very conflicted over cold approaching. What am I supposed to do if see a beautiful woman when I'm out and about? I find her pretty, so why not approach her?
