She is not that old, she is nearing late 20s which is still not a bad age. A fit woman looks super hot in mid-30s. She is still in her mid-late 20s. She should be fine thoug.
This is by far one of the best posts and I wish I could like it more than once. Worse case scenario, she might say thanks in a cold way or maybe not answer you at all. This would not reflect poorly on you since there was no devious intent on your part.
Best case scenario, you end up having lots of chemistry and it can lead to either a relationship or a friendship and she might hook you up with mutual friend or if you go out, she would provide social proofing.
Getting friend zoned can be beneficial for social status but most dudes who get friend zoned get all touchy feely about the girl and they never use her friendship to fish for other women.
This is a great scenario. I have a childhood acquaintance and although we never were close, I can kind of see how being tied to the past and having strong family friendship can potentially be good fundamentally.
Just imagine the most average looking brunette on the planet.

@SugarKrok says, you pick something about her outfit or accessories and you compliment her. Or if she is in a bad mood, you ask if she is doing alright which makes you more empathic as oppose to typical approach which is self-serving and cookie cutter.
Work wise or small town, I agree with you 100 percent. But is it really bad if its just a random approach in a big city?
I just feel like people forget so quickly and even if you make it to the news, you lay low and its over. Most people have their own troubles in life and I dont think a stranger saying hello is so odious that leads to a chick wanting to destroy his life specially if the approach was respectful and low key.
I mean your not wrong per say but those are angry older women or extremely unattractive women. I feel like a semi-decent looking chick has enough going in her life to want to just avoid a confrontation. Also if the approach is ambiguous in nature, it would not be news worthy.
I agree with you 100 percent work wise or small towns. But I noticed there is an older gentleman at yoga who is middle eastern, bald, hairy, bulky and old. He hits on chicks pretty often. Still shows up and practices despite getting rejected and of course yoga studios have insane turn over rate and so you usually will not see most people anyways and not to mention, no one has complained and yesterday, a young lady in her late teens gave him her number and seemed excited about it.
He does it in a very bold way, I usually ask few questions and as I am rolling the mat, I mention how I love a good drink post-hot yoga. This is an implication of invitation and its up to them to take the bait or get the hint and I mention it very nonchalant.
