I personally think another way to phraze the term unapproachable is to say they appear to not need anyone, or welcome attention.
I think that is pretty common for men because there has been so much socialization for hundreds of years for men to be tough and indipendent/unemotional unless it’s anger. I wouldn’t describe you as unapproachable online, I could see you giving off a vibe of not needing people though.
I wouldn’t take that personally it’s part of the collective karma we have to heal yet from centuries of men being expected to suppress their desires for connection unless it’s sexual. I hope that comes across properly.
Historically it was anger men were allowed to express and sex men were allowed to admit they needed. So the repression of men’s deeper self/true has made it so often their soft side is unseen even by men themselves.
What Patrick said on another thread about embracing him feminine side. I don’t know if that’s the solution but I’m sorry you are not feeling embraced. Hope none of that came across wrong this stuff is all hard to word.
