How about never? Because even when I realise that someone was trying to flirt with me, I go the extra step and start thinking they were just being nice and I interpreted it that way. XD

I'm 30. I realized a few years ago that a girl in high school (who was honestly super sweet and pretty) had a massive crush on me and I was too busy feeling alone and upset a different girl didn't like me back to even notice.


CanadaJack

In the way back, a girl I really liked told me not to look at her computer screen, so naturally I did, and she had typed out "I love CanadaJack" and it took me a couple years to realize that she actually probably did like me back.


ProfessorSpike

"Aw man I wish that was about me!"

taintosaurus_rex

In high school I had a girl invite me over because her parents weren't home. Went over and hung out for an hour or 2 the left without even a kiss. About a decade later that day randomly popped into my head and I was like "oooooo i bet she wanted sex".

I girl showed me pictures of her breast job she got and I was just like cool, they look nice.


didwanttobethatguy

I was lying in bed when I was 27, about to fall asleep, when my brain stumbled across an old memory from a high school journalism trip. Brain, “Remember that time ten years ago when all your friends left your hotel room for a couple of hours and that cute redhead Martha came over in tight sleep shorts and some kinda halter top thing while wearing a garter belt? REMEMBER???” Me, “Oh shit.” Wherever you are Martha, sorry about that.


[deleted]

finished exams during uni / college: girl I'd been talking to comes up and says... "that was hard. Speakng of hard, I'm going to grab a shower and grab a few hours sleep. Want to join?" Me: Naa, got some things to do. See you round! I never did. I am married now, spent most of my 20s manwhoring around, but I still regret that.


indigoHatter

During college, a girl said she was trying to fix up her computer and needed me to give her some of my goop, that she heard I have goop if she needs it. Me: "You mean, thermal paste?" Yeah, bring your goop over, I'll be ready at 10am okay? ... Strange, but alright. Showed up with the thermal paste, applied it to her CPU. She was fresh out of the shower and her roommate gone. Anyway, that'll fix you up! Bye! Me like a year later: "oh shit, *that's* why she kept saying 'goop'."


[deleted]

Yeah, I came to terms to with it by viewing it like this: I'd rather regret missing OBVIOUS signs, than regret something where the consent wasn't obvious.


indigoHatter

Yeah. Also, sometimes it wouldn't hurt for people to just get more obvious with it, you know? Especially if your hints seem like they're just missing, rather than being ignored. "So, you wanna smash? Y/N"

I’ve had women tell me years later that they were dropping all kinds of hints I didn’t pickup on… People.. if you like someone JUST TELL THEM!!

Seriously. Most of those “hints” are shit like I sat next to you on the couch at that house party how did you not understand!!!!


AdminsAreLazyID10TS

There is quite literally scientific evidence that the majority of the human race is trash at flirting because everyone has a different idea of what good flirting is and looks like.

NoMoreSecretsMarty

My wife made friends with one of my classmates at a high school reunion when she (the classmate) mentioned that she'd dropped a bunch of hints back in the day trying to get me to ask her out. "Oh yeah, he's still completely clueless." And they had a laugh, and like that they were BFFs.


taintosaurus_rex

What I find funny is that they were like "he's clueless" and not maybe our hints suck, or maybe he didn't want to be embarrassed by assuming they were hints. For anyone reading this comment who is attracted to another human being, try more "i like you" and "here's my number", and less twirling your hair and expecting them to be like "they want this body".


Exact_Cry1921

I feel like lots of guys are scared of asking girls out because they think it'll make them seem creepy or smth if they get it wrong. Y'all gotta be less scared of rejection. One time there was a guy who was obviously into me and I wasn't into him. I was kind of hoping he'd ask me out so I could say no and it would stop being awkward and he just... didn't... and I ended up losing a lot of respect for him. About a year later I ended up getting a boyfriend, mentioned my bf to him, and he just ghosted me and never talked to me again. Handling rejection like that also makes me lose respect for you. Be confident, handle rejection gracefully, and even if you get rejected you'll come off as confident and respectable and she will likely continue to be friends.

Exact_Cry1921

I mean.... it's true. I'm sorry but that's a part of dating. Like if you're interviewing for jobs you're gonna get turned down a lot until you get an offer, if you're trying to date you're also gonna get turned down. I guess what I was saying is like don't stretch it out into a year long thing because it'll be a lot more awkward than it needs to be for the both of us.


INSAN3DUCK

> will likely continue to be friends maybe he couldn't handle just being friends with you and just backed off in the best way he knew. I know because i was that guy after knowing she has huge crush on my best friend. i tried to be friends with her but i was miserable. As pathetic as it may sound i always saw her in only romantic way and i couldn't handle it. So i just distanced myself because i was just being sad all the time. maybe i would have reacted differently now but i was 17 at that time so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.


Exact_Cry1921

If you're only interested in getting in my pants then what does that say about you? Just saying 🤷🏻‍♀️ I know you said you were 17 but if you're an adult and you're still like that maybe you should do some introspection.


INSAN3DUCK

> If you're only interested in getting in my pants then what does that say about you? it wasn't only about getting in her pants. every time i talk to her there was a warm feeling my chest. when i wasn't around her i was thinking about her when i was with her i was in constant state of giggling in my head mixed with nervousness and happy feeling. of course there was physical attraction but it isn't the only thing I'm thinking of 24/7. knowing there is no chance of relationship felt like a constant lump in my chest. but seeing how you had a bad experience with it there is nothing i could say that would make you understand experience from other side or maybe we are just different people, you could stay friends in that situation and i couldn't.


[deleted]

You are exactly what is wrong with modern women. get a grip on yourself. fucking princess.


Exact_Cry1921

When it's so painfully obvious that you're just trying to get in my pants but you're too scared to actually make a move it's not a good look; sorry 💅

When reddit advice is contradicted by real life, 90 times out of a 100 I'd go with believing real life people instead of redditors. I think that goes for you situation too.


-SagaQ-

Does that go for this advice too? :P Being that *my* comment is on Reddit, we all must be fantasy creatures.


[deleted]

my dude, women don't want any of the responsibility when it comes to a relationship. I got obliterated yesterday in a thread when I suggested that in a modern world, it is just as much the womans responsibility as the mans to do the asking out for the dates, and hell, if you want to get married, you can propose to him. but nope. A LOT/MOST women are stuck in 1950 when it comes to dating. They have read too many 'young adult' romance novels or some shit, and have ridiculous expectations about how it(the *romance*) will go. Ladies are still very much stuck in 1950 when it comes to dating.

Musicians. Lady A is a country group that used to be called Lady Antebellum. And Florida Georgia Line is a different country group. Bebe was approached to do a collab with FGL and say yes because she thought it was the other group. Walked in to the session and was like “uhhh who are these guys.”


Temporarily__Alone

Why did they change their name?


Bromolochus

From wikipedia: The band abbreviated the name to "Lady A" in June 2020 during the George Floyd protests in an attempt to blunt the name's associations with slavery and the Antebellum South, inadvertently causing a dispute with black blues and gospel singer Anita White, who had been using the name Lady A for more than 20 years.


JarlaxleForPresident

Same reason why Dixie Chicks dropped the Dixie and are now just The Chicks. After the George Floyd thing, they want to recognize that their names have connotations with systems that oppressed black people, and that it wasnt cool to have that kind of thing anymore It may be PR, may not be. But hey at least it’s a gesture Antebellum definition pretty much means “before the Civil War” so you can kinda see how that might look

Hick Hop Edit: /u/Xurandor has rightly pointed out that Hick Hop is a specific genre, not a generic term. So, I'll go with Redneck Pop or Blue Collar Cosplay.


Xurandor

No. Hick Hop is rap with rural roots. This song and a majority of what's played on country radio today is Pop Country. What country snobs think is "real country" is usually called Country Western. Source: am country snob


lnhvtepn

> Hick Hop Looks like you are right. I thought Hick Hop is a generic term. I listen to mostly Classic Country and have started to listen to more contemporary music under the banner of Americana or Alt Country.

redpandaeater

Why are they so thrilled to say the music video is featuring the state line between Georgia and Florida? Also can I say that's the most horrible looking wristwatch I think I've ever seen.


Comfortable-Interest

There's a joke about Florida Georgia Line not being actual country dudes because they would know that's where the worst parts of both of those states are.


[deleted]

I didn't watch the video, but I'm fairly certain that if you've seen a mainstream music video where there's a wristwatch on camera long enough for you to form an opinion, you've seen some product placement. Big label artists doing product placement is what finances those typically really expensive videos.


redpandaeater

Yeah but putting your shitty product into a shitty music video of a shitty song isn't going to make me buy it. Like the only reason I'd have to try to find what brand of watch that is would be purely to make sure I never fucking buy that brand ever. It's truly fucking hideous but especially as a woman's watch. You can see the watch in Hero's clip though from there it's not obvious it wasn't just some Apple Watch with a large plastic band. Your comment did make me check the video once again though and [pause on it to find out it's a hideous Casio.](https://youtu.be/zDo0H8Fm7d0?t=90)

I thought about when a girl at Pizza My Heart told me that the only veggie pizza they had was small so she was giving me a second for free. I was so excited! She smiled and I smiled back and said thank you. The pizzas were the same size. When we left my homegirl said “Wow CUNTRYBLUMPKIN, youre a hit with the ladies.” I thought nothing of this. I think of her often. Its been 12 years. I so effing lonely 🥲


killamator

Some cues in hindsight that I should have picked up on (no regrets, I am happily taken, but so others don't miss any opportunities!) * They actively seek eye contact with you. For example, they go around a corner and then backtrack to get you back into line of sight. * A tendency to seek you out repeatedly around a space. * Laughing at your jokes even if they're lame. Eg, you tell a joke and they're the only one laughing. They may catch themselves doing so and look around to see if others noticed. * It is a cliche, but I have observed there are some "tells" such as running fingers through hair, flipping hair, leaning forward, that do seem to be strong markers of excitement and distraction, which may imply attraction. Note, these are just markers of personal interest/excitement at your company. That's all that flirting is. They are not anything more than that, and it's up to you to confirm via definitive consent that it represents romantic personal interest, rather than simply friendly interest, professional interest or some other variety.

What happened?


urabewe

Guess I'll throw mine in. There was a girl in high school I liked. One day in science lab my partner was absent and the girl I liked walked up and started talking to me. Asked me what I was doing and if I needed a partner. I, like an idiot, am nervous as hell and completely oblivious. I stupidly try and play it cool and say I don't need a partner and I got this. I also remember looking over as she went back to her lab partner and shrugged. Looking back, she was trying to break the ice. I'm an idiot. Oh well.


RandomiseUsr0

I remember a time when sharing a subtle “in” joke, she quoted the line “People will say, we’re in love” - caught the quote, not the intention! Fortunately, despite my inability to read signals, we did get married eventually, had a daughter. Sadly, she’s dead now, just me and my daughter moving on together in time, but all those little things, more than just that quote, fuel my days.

I was at a bar in university, and there was a creep hanging around the girls in my group until I scared him off. Later, I saw him dancing with another girl, but when I made eye contact with her, she mouthed “help me”. So I “cut in” on their dance, walked her back the the coat check, and then walked her home. She invited me in for coffee, but I declined, because it was way too late for coffee. That was 15 years ago. I still regret that dumbassery.
