Obvious signals from women/men that you completely missed.

This is a very important thread, John.

It was 10th grade. I was in a good relationship with one girl, that looked rather cute. She had an evil sense of humor, and I liked it a lot. So all around 10th grade she asked me to give her massages, rubbed herself against me, drew stuff on my hands, and looked me in the eyes a lot, in the best sense of those words.
I didn't ask her out, my head even didn't work that way. ( 10th grade, mind you! )

So, I see her at the summer break, that year. WOW KNOCKOUT. It turned up she already had a bf. She dates him to this very day, I think. I had a very long period of infatuation.

sigh sigh sigh , stupid stupid stupid.
That chick could be mine.

On the other hand, she turned out to be quite the *****.
So It's all good.

Ouch! Now I don't feel so bad.

I'm usually pretty adept at detecting signals from people, although I usually play dumb and ignore them until they give up.

[Skanky Burns]

I'm sure I have missed plenty of signals, but no-one has pointed them out to me, so I wouldn't know.

Not that it matters, I have my fiancee.

You evil bastard John

She touched my arm and snugged up to me. I thought she was showing an interest, but people I asked told me that wasn't the case.

Not that it matters now, but I still like to do atomic piles on those people who led me astray.

In high school, I managed to mess up both ways.

In 9th grade, they found out I already knew 9th grade math and put me in a class with 10th graders. I sat in the back of the room next to a girl who was an absolute goddess. She and I were also by far the best math students in the class, so most of the time we didn't need to bother listening. We spent the time passing notes back and forth to each other. Years later, I looked back at what was in those notes and realized she had been coming on to me. But at the time, I considered it a law of nature that a girl couldn't possibly be interested in a boy who was younger than her, so what should have been obvious never occured to me. The next year, she transferred to another school and I never saw her again.

Fast-forward to 12th grade. I had met a girl at camp the previous summer and we hit it off. During our time there we took every opportunity to be as affectionate as the time and place permitted--close dancing, holding hands, arms around the waist, stuff like that. (No sex, or even close; these were much more innocent times, and there were counselors around.)

She lived 200 miles from where I did, so after camp we exchanged letters the rest of the year. Then we made plans for me to come spend a weekend at her house during winter break.

I arrived Friday evening, and we decided to go to the movies. Her mother drove us, saying she didn't want me driving because the roads were too icy. (It didn't occur to me that her real reason might be that she didn't want her daughter alone with me in a car.) We rode to and from the movie in the back seat, my arm around her and her leaning against my shoulder.

The next day we were all watching TV in the living room. I sat down next to her and put my arm around her. She immediately jumped up and moved across the room. Did I take the hint? No, not this turkey. I had it fixed in my head that she liked to snuggle with me; my mind was made up, and I wasn't about to be confused by facts. I kept moving next to her, and she kept moving away. Pretty much the whole rest of the weekend went like that. We didn't actually break up then, but the inevitable came soon enough.

What happened to change her attitude? Obviously, her mother didn't like what she saw when she drove us to the movies, and gave her daughter a lecture later on. How long did it take me to figure this out? Oh, only six or seven years.

so now you're married Rex?

I caught a girl looking and smiling at me in class tonight. Funny thing is, she caught my eye as soon as i saw her. So hopefully I don't putz out and actually see where this can go

[Urban Ranger]
