Because that's what the article talks about? Because it's written about that specific subject?

Seriously, it's like you are asking why a book about WW2 does not mention every war in history ever.

I think the point is is that the article is telling you how to"force yourself" onto someone who isn't interested in talking to you. 


I would imagine you wouldn't have to get closer than 2m and wave your arms around if she had any interest in you.

Just because she is outside and breathing doesn't mean she whants or needs male attention.

I don't see any force there really. Say you see somebody you think is attractive and interesting at a book store looking at books you like and she is wearing headphones. You think 'hey we seem to have something in common and I might be interested if she is' and you decide to go up and strike up a conversation about your common interest to see if she has any interest. Did you just 'force yourself' upon her?

And how is she supposed to know if she has any interest in somebody if a conversation never takes place?

Probably a pretty good rule to follow is that if someone is wearing headphones, they aren't really looking for a conversation.

Why is the bolded part relevant, again?

Because the article in question is addressed to single men looking to meet chicks.

Any other discussion about random peope violating people's personal space isn't that interesting.

Alright then. I did not realize that was common knowledge. My wearing of headphones has to do with whether or not I have something I want to listen to and not related to anything else.

Ok but talking to people is 'forcing yourself' upon them? Surely you can meet people out in public without it being compared to assault?

To me wearing headphones in public is a big 'don't talk to me' sign.  If anyone has an interest in talking  to you I would imagine they would acknowledge your existence before you were within 6 feet and waving your arms.

So don't talk to anybody looking at a book that you also love ever? How are they supposed to acknowledge your existence if they are looking at something else?

As a good Christian you shou... Oh.

[garbon]

I like to go to look at bookstores to look at people. I hate it when they talk to me.
