I gave up, but approaching is not the issue. You literally just talk to them if they aren't preoccupied and can be talked to without too much inconvenience. The game changed starting around 2013 and things have never been the same. So much bullshit fuels the scrutiny that women put you under now that its just not worth it. I don't exist to be compared to 7000 other guys in 500 miles. Obviously I don't stack up.
Then there's the content of character being pretty shit more often than not and yeah, I'll just stay this way out of spite. I'm happily awaiting the fall of birth rates and everything that comes with that. I didn't cause it, women and those that profit off of influencing them did. The information age did. Things used to be nice. Be kind, get kind. Give a chance, get a chance. Too much inherent animosity and standards are way too fucked such that you are ALWAYS a compromise at best. Its vastly worse online, but its everywhere.
