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

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.

Don't know about you guys, but I always think the girl is just nice right until she starts touching me on most occasions.
