Is it Islamphboic for me not to talk to women wearing the veil?

I don't like the idea of the veil. It intimidates me.
I can't really talk to someone without seeing their face. I avoid women who wear them.

I've never spoken to a woman whop wears the veil and I hope I'm never forced to.

Arguably.

It may seem intimidating, but unless they are actually intimidating you that's your issue to deal with.

Some of the girls on my Arabic course wear the veil. They are approachable, one of them left and I wont forget her quick cos of her warm personality.

Your the one that is building the barrier.
That shouldn't bother you they are just other humans

*You're.

I don't think I could ever approach someone who doesn't show their face. It's not social at all.

Talking to people in person is different from chatting online and talking on a phone.
There are some guys who would tell you that's the idea

So why do you care if it is Islamophobic or not?
I find it rude to not show your face. So much of what you get from people is from body language and facial expressions. I would struggle to communicate with someone like that, and I'm not sure I would want to either.

Someone understands! Body language and facial expressions are important!

I'm just wondering if it is.
I'm sure they won't lose sleep over this.

The female doesn't talk to me and I had to quickly get in class to ensure that I didn't bump into her or touch her.
