Is it normal to be disgusted to see people approach others for being attractive

I find it so awkward/strange when I can clearly tell that people are approaching or starting conversations with other people just for being attractive. I see it both ways. Guys clearly being interested in an attractive girl and talking to her. Girls clearly being interested in an attractive guy and talking to him. Usually, when it's two people of different genders in a conversation, they will be of similar attractiveness levels. But when one of them is unattractive, it's even more painfully obvious that the unattractive person finds the other person attractive and that's the main reason they approach/talk to them. Of course, I try not to make assumptions or pass judgment. Any two random strangers could have known each other for a while and because I'm just observing them in public, it doesn't necessarily mean there are other feelings involved between them, mutual or otherwise.

    It really is one thing when you are being approached by someone who won't leave you alone and can't take a hint (handling that can go from 0 to real social dilemma really quick).

    However...

    I have to disagree. I have to respect someone who is willing to grow a pair and approach someone they have their eye on rather than coming on here and posting the same stupid, meaningless bullshit stories asking shit like "what does it mean if someone looks at you for longer than .4 seconds do they like me back" or "omg iin i can't find the courage to talk to him/her???". A person legally pursuing happiness is usually a great thing. Means they have hope, gotta keep that shit alive.

      I agree although i can say that i ever had alot of experience of the pursued side of things.

      And also attractiveness is a subjective, there are plenty of "attractive" people i dont like and the vice versa

      I'm so glad you stated the obvious as well and graceful as you did. It was well over due. Thank you honestly.

      You exposed the elephant at the tea party everybody knows is there but nobody talks about. That takes balls.

      You scratched my itch for the day and for that I thank you.

    It's normal.

    Personally, I neither participate in the random pursuit, nor am I flattered by being hit on by strangers.

      For me it depends on the stranger.

    You have to understand we are animals and are governed by our biological needs. We want mates that appear health and will produce strong offspring. On a social level, there is pressure to be attractive ourselves and to have an attractive significant other. A lot of people give into these biological and social pressures. Of course we also capable of higher thinking, but hey I guess its life.

    It annoys me too and unlike the first answer, no I don't find it "ballsy" to talk to someone that you simply find physically attractive and know nothing about otherwise, but I guess that's how love works for most people. Although I do let them down gently, since I know we have all these men get upset by girls rejecting them, then go complain on the Internet how all women are bitches. So I don't want to be another stereotype, but honestly if your attracted by physical looks primarily then we have not much in common.

      Somebody on another thread was just talking about how you call guys creeps all the time. And now you're saying it here. What exactly is a creep in your definition?

      Ironically, hating creeps actually attracts them. I bet you have trouble with creeps, huh.

          They can smell your malice on their creep-o-meter instantly, and they respond with demented fascination. Try being a happy, sexually adjusted woman that has faith in good men, who turns her head away from them immediately. That will repel them like bug spray.

              Your skin crawling gives them a demented sense of power.
