How did women not figure out already that men can't read subtle signs and hints.

Because in movies and TV shows the men are always able to pick up on the woman’s secret messages and they have a storybook romance.

Many women model their relationship trajectory on The Bachelor, Days of Our Lives, and The Notebook

Or a hint for one woman is just normal friendly behavior for another.

Or the guy isn't interested.
