Hm. Sounds like she wanted to make you aware that she had a girlfriend so you wouldn't hit on her. Maybe she had bad experiences in the past, who knows? Technically she answered your question, though.
[ Prompto kind of looks like innocence itself, so he's fairly sure she didn't see him as a predator. Then again, Molly was not the best person at socializing. That's why he defaulted to just blind people with Mollymauk. ]
It's all very situational, too. Maybe she just didn't want to talk, just like any guy might not want to talk right then. Doesn't have much to do with gender but with everything else.
Depends on the circumstances, my friend. Let's say a tavern? I'd nod at her first to get her attention and see if she's interested in a chat at all. A nod back or a smile is usually a good tell.
[ He has to take down his usual flair a bit to make this more usable for Prom rather than just sliding in from the side and asking if they want their fortune read. ]
Then I'd just walk up to her, say hi, tell my name, ask hers, ask if she's a regular around here and just find a topic that interests us both. Same as anyone else I'd chat with.
Oh man, a tavern? That sounds so old-timey. Sometimes other worlds sound like they're straight out of a comic book.
That... doesn't sound so hard. [Okay, maybe he wouldn't be able to meet someone's eyes well enough to do a lot of signaling with facial expressions, but he could probably say 'hi' and remember his name. Now just watch him try it with Beau.] Oh, that reminds me! I met a girl on Mu that looked kinda like you, and she knew who you were. Did you see her?
[And maybe a little unintentionally racist. He'd only seen two people of Molly's race, so they had a lot of similarities to him.]
[ He's still not sure about this timeline/other world thing. A tavern was a tavern, right?
...oh, Molly's definitely gonna enjoy putting Beau and Prom together. Stirring some wank in this boring place just seemed like a great idea, and would teach the guy some stuff about women.
The mention of Jester has him smiling on the other side of the stone, however, and his voice goes a little softer. ]
Yeah. I saw her, too. She's a wonderful woman, and I've missed her.
[ A little racist, but not impossible. (Unlike Nott's idea that all firbolgs had to know each other.) ]

[He hadn't really thought about what she was doing, he was more wondering what he did wrong.]
Okay, so, like, if you were going to say 'hi' to a girl you don't know, what would you say?
