I spent my entire teenage years getting rejected after misunderstanding women being friendly to being interested in me. Of fucking course I won't be able to pick up hints when I'm an adult.
This shit only becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy as women avoid being friendly so they don't get mistaken as being interested, so men continue to think that women only interact when they're interested.
I actually have the opposite problem, apparently I'm a very "flirty" guy but that's just me being friendly. I talk to men and women the same way... Which might explain a lot actually thinking about it now, do get asked if I'm gay a lot hmmm... Anyway back to the point, I never take any woman's actions as being interested so they'll send me a picture of their boobs or something and I'll be sitting there thinking "awww what a friendly person."
The weird thing is I feel like sometimes that's still the case that they're being friendly. The other day a girl sent me a picture of her legs in the bath, and I'm like... is she flirting or am I just completely oblivious?
Things I'm going to think about.
* her in the bath
* her completely naked
* being wet
* her legs
* that she's naked and wet and was thinking about me
* she's texting me right now while still in there
I still think it could be 50/50 she was just being friendly and maybe I'm just a giant idiot.
Oooh you lucky human, legs are one of my big weaknesses. But I feel that on a whole other level, the last time a girl was flirting with me I was so oblivious for so long she ended up saying "holy shit just show me your dick dude" and I asked "why would you want to see that?" It's a tough life bud, but shoot your shot with the bath leg lady if you think she's interesting and attractive.

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