People often say that cold approaching is a huge waste of time. That you could use things like dating apps to find more people and have a higher success rate doing so, rather than the few out of a hundred that might agree to a single date through cold approach. Many women themselves even say that cold approaching is "creepy" and "uncalibrated" and that women want to be left alone when they are out in public.

Despite all of that, we do it anyways. So, with all of this fearmongering in mind, what is the WORST, most TRAUMATIC experience you've ever had starting a conversation with a woman in public? Did you survive? Were you arrested, put on a rocket, and shot into space for even daring to do such a thing?
