You're not that interesting, or I'm not paying that close attention.
Not you, the OP, specifically. I don't know you. I usually *do* walk up to people, and certainly don't mind walk ups myself. Usually, though, I have to think up a reason why my character would walk up to someone else. Unless there's something that stands out about them to pique my character's curiosity, chances are she WON'T bother someone. It's not even shyness, really. She's just content to keep to herself.
As for being walked up to, when I'm sitting by myself and not emoting or anything, I'm usually doing something else, and just leaving myself available. In those moments, I don't really care if anyone walks up or not.
If I want someone to take notice, I'll try "broadcasting". Sort of "role playing by myself" to indicate to others, "Yes, I'm here, and I'm available." It's a little disappointing when someone doesn't take advantage, but I'm a big girl. I'll survive.
