Interesting point... I hadn't thought of that. I remember, once at a store I mentioned to my wife how people must find me weird-looking because a lot of people were "looking at me"... I figured it was because I'm 6'2" with a big build, shaved head and a scar on my face. She said it's not that, but the fact that I walk around with a fast pace and an expression on my face that says "I'm about to knock your teeth down your windpipe if you don't get the fuck outta my way."
I realized that this was true, and that it was a defense mechanism that I used due to not being very comfortable in a large crowd of people.
What you said made me realize that therein might lie a big part of the problem... I might indeed seem unapproachable to others.
