Yeah, it's one component, but not the whole solution.

Don't know about approaching humans as part of dating, never did it. Only had one relationship and I found myself talking to a girl for a couple of hours, I realized I enjoyed it, told her so, she agreed, girlfriend for a while. Stopped it once I realized I didn't like her enough to spend much time with her (not interesting enough), didn't try again because I found people not very interesting in general.

(Also, what Hul-Gil said.)
