Yea, you can’t really tell. Maybe she’s from Canada and was just being polite.

I'm not autistic. Everybody else is just weird.

A Rebel Without the Ability to Read Non-Verbal Cues

Team: Nobody actually ever flirted with me, and just the audacity to entertain any romantic Idea could me considered an insult to the person of the highest magnitude.

Edit: I'm getting ratioed by memes.

Team: Anyone trying to genuinely flirt with me has bad enough judgment to be a red flag, or they are baiting a reaction. Not that I put my self in that kind of environment where flirting can occur in the first place.

I’m like 80% sure at this point, she keeps trying to hold my arm or hand, she said she wanted me to touch her ass the other day, and she also invited me to watch a show in her bedroom at one point.

idk for sure tho :/

[-] blibla@slrpnk.net 24 points 11 months ago

yea but that was like 3 days ago

[-] li10@feddit.uk 25 points 11 months ago

You’re right, she’s probably not interested anymore

[-] beebarfbadger@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Maybe she's Canadian.

A woman I liked invited me over to watch some Buffy and we decided it got too late for me to go home, so I prepared to sleep on the sofa. She invited me to share her bed and I declined because I didn't want to inconvenience her. I was right, right? Right?

Women who go from 0 to 100 throw me off. So, she's inviting you for sex without any kissing or anything leading up to it? Was watching Buffy supposed to be the foreplay?

[-] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I don't know! Maybe there were other signs I missed? Maybe it was a last effort before I left in the morning? Maybe she really was just being nice? I guess it's a mystery I'll take to my grave.

Don't beat yourself up. Here's how I see it.

The big thing I'm concerned with here is consent. Sleeping together does not imply consent. If you're sleeping with me and you want sex, then you have to make that clear in some way. I'm not going to initiate sex if there isn't something going on that makes it clear that you want sex. Watching Buffy together doesn't cut it. Otherwise, I could wind up raping somebody, and I don't want to do that.

Think about if the roles were reversed. Would you invite a woman over, watch some TV, and then ask her to get into bed with you, expecting sex? If it was seduction, it was the most clumsy and indirect seduction ever.

So what ? it's just a show. I too, love movies

[-] Gutek8134@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

They might be Canadian

[-] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

"She's so cute, there's no way she's single. She's probably just being really nice when she talks to me everyday"

[-] Acters@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

she probably thinks of me like a brother, no way am I going to make it weird now

[-] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Holy shit get out of my brain.

[-] Klear@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 months ago

This, but also oblivious at the same time.

Team "Not bothering to look for signs/flirting and just asking out people I like and crossing my fingers."

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Someday I want a tv series where after 8+ episodes of flirting, it turns out that the guy was not oblivious: He just had zero interest in the girl in question.

The flipside of "the worst she can say is no."
