Hi, I’m a single woman in my mature+ years and I wonder what do you think about woman taking first step in the public space, like the underground, street, store.
Sometimes I’m thinking of just briefly giving my phone number to a guy I see but still, feeling stupid if a man has someone, especially a family. And also, why would he accept this, only because I liked his look (superficial and shallow).
Please share your opinion and suggest any other approach.

You’re thinking like a woman again. We are not BOTHERED BY THIS.
Preferred method probably a little note with phone # and why you gave it since I hate to be put on the spot. Otherwise we’d assume it’s scam or you’re trying to sell something.
Underground? NO. I mean, if I see a woman approaching my first response is always to create distance. World has gone weird, do not want to get pranked and see my face all over the socials.
Otherwise, generally speaking. Humans don’t mind being approached by another Human.
That just something you cannot know beforehand unless you turn yourself into a creepy stalker, who diggs up private information about that person.
Welcome to the dating experiences of men.

Dispense with the “superficial and shallow” BS, we are adults here, we know that this is what gets the foot in the door and we know that he would also make his conclusions about who you are or whether to actually give you a call based on what you looked like when you gave it to him. Is he “superficial and shallow” now too? If so why would you want to get to know someone like this.
If you are guilt tripping yourself like this, before others do it, you’ll have a rough time finding someone.
I know this isn’t uplifting, happy-go-lucky kinda stuff, but I hope its useful for what you want to find. Best of luck.
I don’t mind being approached by a woman. I’d actually welcome it. I’m also … mature … so I always feel like I’m crossing a creepiness line these days so I tend to stay away from anything remotely close to “hitting” on someone.
I think if you came up and said, hi, you’re handsome, would you mind if I gave you my number? that would be fine with most guys.
I’d only approach a stranger in an environment that calls or allows for social interactions. Like a concert or a gathering.
Absolutely go for it!! You only live once!!
it would scare the hell out of me.
you must be some kind of scam artist.
But I’ll take what I can get.
Yeah but that feeling of unknown results right before is a wild ride , don’t feel stupid , we are all doing the same shit , try not to over think it , you don’t know what will happen unless you try , so don’t stress it
To make things happen you need to take risks, however life is not in your favor, they guy has alot to loose based on a single word from a woman… it would surprise me if they act on it
I’d take a number with a side of “if available, call me” coming from her. I think this would be acceptable because if for some reason he thinks you’re weird, you just won’t get a call/text. I think it’s safe.
edit: use a burner phone. in case he’s weird. try looking yourself up by your phone number and you’ll see why i suggest a burner phone.
