Picked up while grocery shopping

@sorillo1000 -Most women are not that way. It takes all kinds to make a world I guess.

Funly, at least they were polite. Most people are. But I once had that happen to me years ago while entering a department store, and the woman got pissy and unpleasant about having a door held open for her. Obviously she was that ONE person who was actively looking for a confrontation. She didn't like it when I let the door slam in her face.

Only had that happen once, everyone else I've held a door for (male or female) has been polite, even when declining the door opening gesture.

I think most times when a woman says that it is not that she does not appreciate it, it is more like she is ok getting her own door, now saying smiling and being courteous (even though not necessarily) but can go a long way in having a decent conversation that can lead to better things. Women are a lot more independent now, but at the heart of it, we are still feminine.

I held the door for a woman recently and her response was "I can get it." Been seeing more and more of that reaction recently. Men are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

I don't want to be accosted either, but I think the easiest way to open a conversation is to say 'hello' complimented with a smile, it should be pretty easy to gage if the person is read to receive more conversation. I think it is more like the total change in male/ female communication brought on by different political and interest groups, men are turned off.

Lots of reasons. Many women genuinely don't want aggressive men accosting them in the grocery store, and a proper gentleman will respect that. Plus, there's a tik-tok trend of filming those aggressive men and provoking a confrontation in order to get views and likes, although I rather suspect that this is MUCH less common than tik-tok would indicate. Some men are already married or in a committed relationship. And some men simply aren't interested in treating the grocery store like a singles bar. One can go on and on.

I'd suggest not waiting for your desired men to make the first move. If you're attracted to someone, strike up a conversation, and let nature take its course.

I like the being a hotwife and picked up by a handsome man while I am doing my grocery. Where I am located I have tried placing a pineapple upside down in my cart, tried dressing very sexy and revealing, tried smiling more. Seems like men today are afraid to approach women but only by an app.

Any of you men have opinions on why men are afraid to approach women anymore?
