I have a dating question?

Oceanside CA

Description

This is the year 2021. I have a genuine question about women and dating. Do women expect a man to ask them out or start a conversation first? This is just not my style, and I want the woman to start the conversation. Often, women will intentionally sit by me or stand close to me (happens very often), but I generally don't say anything. What does this mean? An experience like this happens daily where a female will come to sit by me or try to be in my general vicinity intentionally. I really would like to know if women expect me to make the first move. What does this mean, and why won't women start talking first? This happens daily at the gym, the beach, or just about any other place.
