Given the existence of the Strike Back (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/strike-back-combat---final) feat, Pathfinder is definitely saying that the limbs of a creature with reach enters your space as it comes at you (to attack or grapple or whatnot). In PF, when you succeed in a grapple, you also do not move into the target's space (nor do you drag the target into your space).
So, let's say a monk is for some reason wearing an item of constant AMF. A summoned creature without spell resistance and with 15ft or more reach tries to go in and grapple the monk. What happens?
Also logically speaking, if the creature does not have Improved Grab or Improved Grapple, should the creature provoke an AoO from the monk for attempting to start a grapple, even if the creature is far away? Assume that the monk has the Strike Back feat.
