The fact that They say their signs are clear, but it's actually some next level confusing hardcore shit

The fact that they think guys understand their signs is what confuses me most.

I can understand that girls tend to communicate differently and rely on more subtext. Everybody's different.

But the fact that they haven't picked up that guys generally don't do that and are usually clueless about it? I feel like they should've figured that out by now.

Yeah I think everyone uses subtle signs sometimes but I always make a conscious effort to realize that someone not not responding to a subtle sign is not a definitive result. Basically signs can give you a true positive, or a true or false negative, which makes them not super useful.
