Like I said, there's an innumerable quantity of attractive women abound, why is it necessary for a man to obsess over the one in closest proximity?

Most men don't find it necessary to "make a move" on every attractive woman they pass on the sidewalk, why then should they be in a constant state of anguish because the attractive woman is present in the room and not passing by on the street?

Hitting on the woman you pass by on the street won't get you in trouble for sexual harassment.

No, but it will hopefully get you a slap in the face.

Hint: It's rude to hit on people you barely know in a context that's not explicitly social. (Edit: Even there it's not exactly a master stroke. It's always a good plan to get to know people before you "hit" on them)

So what's your point? I am still at a loss as to why one must obsess over an attractive woman, especially if there is an expectation that one's advances will not be well received.

Familiarity breeds attempt.
