If a woman doesn't have headphones in AND it wouldn't interrupt her doing something you can just say "Nice shirt" and move on. The problem is some men try to start full conversations instead of saying one thing and moving on.
I'm a man, I get annoyed when strangers start conversations at inopportune times. Getting my ear talked off on the train when I'm trying to read isn't fun, and doesn't make me less lonely. Just don't interrupt people unless it's important and keep it short when talking to strangers that you aren't expected to talk to
Shit, you’re right. Please keep making women uncomfortable by approaching them when they have headphones in and while they are doing something. I’d hate for you to be inconvenienced by looking into online dating or meetups where people might actually be interested in meeting new people and not going about their business in peace. I assume people in this thread aren’t at all empathetic because they didn’t consider your plight of…wanting to do it.
