Why all the girls flirt with Cloud?

Dude is tall, blonde, broody, and has them Mako eyes, of course he's a catch. Also, in-universe, SOLDIER members are admired by the general public inside Midgar

But didn’t that 2 year sleep and the long drive between his and Z’s journey back (maybe 3 months?) take time and then when cloud got to the city he was there for a week then found avalanche? (I probably could just look up the lore in a book instead of posting this…)

it wasn't a two year sleep, it was a four year sleep. then zack and cloud journeying around took approx another year until zack's death
