32 People Talk About Why Guys Never Get The Hint When A Woman Flirts With Them
"I pine from afar and hope to god he asks me out while simultaneously hoping he never actually finds out I'm interested because oh dear god what if he doesn't like me back that way?"

Men and women discuss why guys always seem oblivious to a girl’s subtle advances and why the direct approach always gets noticed. Found at AskReddit.
1. The Direct Approach Works Most Of The Time
My wife started leaning on me all the time, like we would be sitting at a table and she would lean her head on my shoulder. Kinda figured she must want to date me.
2. But If A Girl Drops A Subtle Hint, Like This
“I will have nothing to do tomorrow…”
3. Then A Guy Will Just Miss The Point, Like This
Ah that sucks, I’m just going to sleep in.
1 week later…
Shit!
4. Like, Subtle Hints Never Work
Had a friend do something like this. Some hot girls outside a bar wanted him to take their picture with his phone as they were leaving so one of them said “lemme give you my number so you can text it to me.” He smiled and said “oh I can just use your phone.” Which he did and then realized a week later his mistake.
5. There’s A Mountain Of Evidence That Guys Are Just Dense
Her: “I will have nothing to do tomorrow…”
Me (in college): “Ah, cool. You feel like doing something?”
Her: “Oh, uh….yeah, no, I….have plans.”
6. Even If A Guy Noticed This He Wouldn’t Know What To Make Of It
If I start stuttering around you, now that’s a hint.
