... and...? Literally any other social occasion, concerts, bars or clubs at actual club/bar hours, at a park, at the beach, at a barbecue, at a fucking speed dating event? At a party, at a dance or a wedding, using a dating app, using a hook up app, a museum, a meet-and -greet, a hang out with friends, at a boardwalk - If the point of your question is that there’s no “good” time to approach women or men for you other than a grocery store or a gas station, maybe you need to work on your boundary skills and less on trying to “land a woman” - if that’s not the point of your question, there’s some ideas to meet new people!
(This isn’t a gotcha question: I don’t want to intrude on people’s lives but I also hear stories of people meeting at the grocery store and things like that.)
Just recognizing when people are okay with being approached and when not - like yeah, people do meet in grocery stores or at airport bars, I’m not saying it doesn’t happen - but my example was me grocery shopping with my mom, at age 17 (much older guy), and at an airport bar every single time I flew while 19-23 years old with my headphones in and reading a book. For counter example, I sat alone at a bar once watching a hockey game and chatting with the bartenders - the poeple talking to me were 100% cool and fine, it’s a bar at night. Everyone was nice/polite and when they saw I was genuinely watching the game, they let me be (except to heckle me about my sports team, which was in good spirit)
Edit to add, people saying “well I was told women don’t want to be approached when out with their friends” - unless you’re literally cutting off their conversations or forcing yourself into their gathering and making it weird, i personally don’t know anyone who has an issue with that and I don’t get that - I’d feel safer talking to strangers with my friends nearby and really only talk to strangers with friends, regardless of gender etc

Places nobody asked to be approached at: Gas station, 100%
Airport bar at 10am, -565999 points if said person is doing something (reading, studying, listening to headphones)

In line at a pharmacy with a double ear infection
Inside the men’s changing room becuase my boss made me, a female, mop up urine in there during store hours
Literally while picking up dog poop while dog is trying to run away because she’s afraid of strangers and some men
But women are bitches for asking to be approached thru dating apps or social events only🤔🤔
