Goth girl i worked with at Tacobell in college, I guess, was flirting with me often? She gave me this burned CD, and her music was weird, so I just threw it in my binder. Years later, I finally listened to it, and it was all songs about having sex.

I think she might have been interested in me?

    I’m the king of obliviousness. She passed her hand over my dick. Twice.

    Ha, imagine getting signals.

    I have to find women in order to get any signals.

    Was one of the signs her saying something like "Hey, I'm attracted to you, would you like to explore a potential relationship?" ?

    Otherwise f off with "signs"

    Meh, had this too often. The moment I make a move they usually withdraw. Nowadays I let people know that if they're interested, hints won't cut it. Either ask me out or stop that shit. I've had enough rejections to the point where I'd rather stay single than go through this hell again. ✌️

    If it's meant to be, they'll speak up and say, "I'm interested in a date, what are you doing this friday?" or something along those lines, just like I would if I was interested in someone as a potential partner.

    Signs/signals/asstrology charts/ouija boards that mysteriously spell out words like kiss, sex, or date.... these things are for middle school. I've got better things to do.

    No. Once bitten twice shy, and I got bitten over and over again. Falling in love with every person who was nice to me in high school was a massive mistake and caused nothing but hardship. The last two decades have been relatively peaceful because I don't buy it anymore. Fuck reading between the lines, fuck hints, fuck signals and vibes. I'm never acting unless I receive DIRECT CLEARLY EXPRESSED FREELY GIVEN ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENT and not a moment sooner.

    I will never trust my ""intuition"" ever again.

    Last year I got hit on by a young woman in my neighbourhood. She started by asking me for some rice because she didn’t have any left (that might have been an excuse). When I came back 5mn later with a bag, she simply asked me if I wanted to play with her. I told her I was married and went home, but I liked her approach. No room for ambiguity. She must have been 20 something, so it’s not a matter of age at least. Maybe maturity.

    Fucks signs, fuck everything that's not clear communication made of words that carry your intended meaning

    Could it be that “signs” are meant to hedge one’s bets? It doesn’t expose you as much if the other party isn’t interested.

    Right, just like it's inappropriate for a guy to go up to a random woman, or even a familiar woman in a friendly setting and just say "hey you wanna fuck?" it's also inappropriate in the other direction. That's why you use an escalating series of verbal and non verbal cues to gauge interest first before you commit fully.

    Yep. That's me. Dense as a brick.

    I have realized one day that years ago when she invited me in for a beer after a night out when I went to pickup my sunglasses that I left with her, it probably wasn't about the beer, though to be fair to me, I thought she was still seeing this guy I knew so I basically had that part of my brain turned off around her.

    It is indeed AI, and imagine my disappointment to learn this because as you can probably guess I would watch the hell out of a random cyberpunk anime involving goth chicks and penguins.

    I guess we still have Evangelion, which is probably what this is riffing off of anyways.

    (A note to interested readers that there is also Penguin Highway, which I thought was halfway decent.)

    Can I teleport an apostrophe into that possessive pronoun to transform it into the appropriate contraction?

    All the possible signals = literally just standing there. That tracks.
