TOS s3e14 “Whom Gods Destroy”
I always made the joke that a girl could reach her hand down the front of my pants at the bar and I wouldn’t pick up on those signals.
Until the time a girl actually did reach her hand down my pants a bar and when I tried to act on it I was called a creep.
To paraphrase a German comedian (I’m not even sure who said it).
Women, if you want a man, don’t be subtle. Stop with the playing with your hair and the dreamy looks. Men are stupid. They don’t pick up on that. If you want him, go to him, and say “You, me, sex!”
(Slightly adapted to fit the medium text better.)
Them: I think she’s into you
Me: then why does she only reply with 1 word responses and walked away twice
I hate that this is framed as men being stupid when in reality if a man is ignoring a hint it’s because he’d rather be wrong about it not being a hint than wrong about it being a hint and make an unwanted advance.
Nope, there’s a decent number of us who can completely miss any type of hint, and need to be told explicitly that someone’s into us.
Source: It’s me, I’m one of those men.
Or, as I’ve said 1000 times before and will say 1000 times again…
Playing hard to get is often indistinguishable from not interested.
It can both of these things. I can completely miss most hints thrown my way and still be concerned about misreading possible hints.
In some things a lack of subtlety is a virtue. In this case, “you, me, sex” is not clear enough. Please specify a time and location as well.
Wait, it doesn’t mean right here, right now? Maybe that’s why I’m banned from the supermarket 🤔
Is she into me, or is she just being weird? Because usually when women do this to me, they’re being weird. But I’ve heard this is what they do when they’re into a guy. So I don’t know, but probably not.
“Nope. I don’t gamble. Never.”
“I bet I can get you gambling by the end of the day.”
“You know what… You’re on!”
“Ha! I’m gonna get you. I don’t know how yet, but I will!”
What if I give to 2-1 odds? 5-1? 10-1?
You’re on!
One time at a bar…
Friend: “I think she likes you…”
Me: “Nobody likes me. That’s like… my whole deal.”
How did I got recognize Batgirl when I saw this as a kid?
