This. I feel like there are a lot of good points made so far; I especially dig the one with your mind being resistant to change. Chances are, it's not a habit to approach, and so, creating a new habit is not as easy. Factor in the fact that with approaching women, men TEND TO place more of their self-esteem into it than say, getting better at tennis or becoming a better stamp collector.
