I did this once while messing with a video camera. Apparently, my GF at the time wanted to have sex while filming it and I totally missed it
Klaustrophile
Me, if I were to get flirted at:
panamjck
Can I wait in your hotel room? I can't find a taxi at this time of day... Oh, no problem, I have a car, I can give you a ride...
MadCat221
When the flirting is below the noise threshold of behaviors we learned the hard way was *not* flirting.
Starbolt81
Im in this picture and I dont like it.
mjangelvortex
Based on conversations I've heard from lesbians, even some women have trouble understanding when other women are flirting with them.
mattb94
Ok but this is funnier considering right after this he tries to rip his shirt and only ends up angrily showing his nipples
Gherkincensed
Yea that was hilarious
TakeYouAway
My husband and I still have those realizations about each other from during the time before we dated lol everyone's dumb

It took me 20 years to realize a girl wanted me to ask her out

Last day n College Showers : "Next time I'm seen naked, it'll be by my future wife." My gay ass years later:
CapitalNick
Had a girl tell me once that she wasn't wearing any underwear. I thought she was just "being silly".
Rusarules
That was me with my fellow tuba player. Asked me to a dance, I said I can't dance, didn't realize till 11th grade what it meant.
RedLetterMediaReactionGifs
What the hell did it mean?
That I missed out on dating a pretty funny and nice redhead.

If a women sat on my knee in a bar, I'd assume there must be a shortage of chairs.
PirateRubberDuck
Once there was a shortage of chairs and a girl offered me her lap to sit on. Took me a week to figure that one out.
superpaul79
One invited me up to her place. I didn't realize what she wanted until 17 years later.
Poortedo
had a girl say "I like your face" but we used to tease each other a lot so I just walked away confused... took about 10 years to realize

Senior year: me not sure when prom is. Girl on vb team "aren't you going with (other girl on vb team)" "first I heard of it". Later talking
Said girl "so I heard this rumor that we're going to prom". "yeah that's weird I heard the same thing.... So do you want to" "I guess"
About 4 years later, "oh shit she wanted to like go out with me"
Velonici
I was in my 30's when I realized I had 2 girls pretty much fighting over me in HS. I never had a GF then. We dumb.
Fauxcused
Girl told me to take her home from party. I stayed and didn't get the hint. Told me the next day I missed out.
Larktonguesinadicecup
So weird. "Yeah I wanted to fuck you last night but since you missed that, now I don't." Ok what's so different about today? Not interested
We knew each other. I was a safe fuck for one night. Or would have been. Like a day pass out if the friendzone.
anymore, but feel the need to announce that? That's weird. You're weird.
TheMadOnion
I remember a girl I had a crush on in Middle School also had a crush on me. But I was just too dense to notice. Haha 1/2
Me in head: man she keeps talking about roller skating, she must really like it, this is the fifth time she's brought it up today...
BoozeHound001
the others guys bday leave party, one girl I was walkting to all night "I always sleep better when I have someone to cuddle" 1/2
My dumbass "I'm sure one of the other girls here wouldn't mind."
TisIChenoir
Honestly, that's just preservation instinct right there. The risk of misreading the intent and putting yourself in an untenable situation is
Perceived as high, so you avoid. Normal behavior really. Crippling but normal.

Be me when find out the girl that bullied me in 6th grade actually had a huge crush on me. Never knew that was a thing till then

My wife keeps telling me I way missed out. Oh well
Don't worry, I didn't
EvilleBob
I found out that the girl I had a crush on for 4yrs liked me too, the very morning I left, not just the country, but the hemisphere.

So happy to see his expression is a meme already.
Higure
Did you not see him make the rounds here when he became world champion in 2017? Also, this is not from the Olympics. Diamond League?
dnebdal
His name label thing says "Tokyo 2020" and has the rings?
Huh, you're right. I thought he ripped his top apart almost immediately after crossing the line, but apparently he had time for this face.

That's because you have a high IQ. It's not uncommon for high IQ people to have subtle signs, like flirting, fly over their heads. :-)
Seventytonsofmettle
Well then I must be a fukkin genius!
PaintedSlate
Prolly not, but I like the energy. E.g., https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7444496/ . (SRS measures symptoms; lower is better.)
KillingTlme
It should be called social IQ and it doesn't come from books or seminars. Autistic people have a hard time learning it
kerms
More like low EQ.
TheOldSchoolisBack
Yeah, lets go with that.
PiggyWobbles
my mom told me that was true too
Nah man I'm just fucking stupid and I can prove it mathematically. 24x13=674
In reality though I have crippling social anxiety and I tend to overthink things I shouldn't and not think about things enough that I should
Carl99
Amen on that, real answer for the curious is 312.
Is the implication that people with lower IQ's communicate ineffectively?
UnpinionedPoplars
"Yeah, thanks for trying to cheer me up. You're a good friend." 10 years later...
thecheesedip
You misspelled Asperger's. Plenty of people have a high IQ as well as high or normal EQ.
cozybonfire
IQ is mostly fake and commonly used to discriminate against people. And no I'm not envious 1/2
Just someone who was told they were "smart" growing up, had to learn the hard way that it doesn't mean much 2/3
Better to focus on cultivating other qualities in yourself like kindness, empathy, and a work ethic.

When I was in medical school a girl asked me to teach the reproductive system tonight! And I said "we learned that last semester, Jessica!"

Had a nice lady chat me up at the store about veggies, 2 months later "Wait, wait, that was flirting"
hastykoala
If you already had a crush on her would you pick up the sign sooner?
Um... I kind of did already like her...but not like-like if that's any excuse (well, it's not a good excuse, I was stupid)

Bank teller: Oh youre going to workout at *place*, I would love for someone to take me there. Me: It’s literally down the road, have fun.

You all right there buddy? Wanna share for the class?
MoochieMan
I did the same thing but I said.."why would I sleep on your couch when I have a perfectly good bed at home."
Another time she straight up said. "I like you." To which I said.."what do you mean"
A brother from another mother is all I am hearing. Maybe some day we too shall unravel the mysteries of flirting
capughe
It's good to clarify. If she didn't she was a coward!
