Proof that even NT guys have problems with understanding hints from women. I don't even know what some of those were hints for like #10.

That only proves that men don't always think about SEX all the time.

A woman that assumes all men are constantly thinking about sex must be constantly thinking about it herself too right?

"She assumes that he assumes" lol

Let's take the opened door shower scenario for example.

She leaves the door open. Notice that the say there 'a girl' , not a date nor a girlfriend - so she might be a friend and just see you as a friend or brother.

There are two possibilities here:

1- She wants to have sex with you.
2- She's too careless and forgot her door open

You go in there naked with an erected penis, if it's 1 all it's all good.

if it's 2, she might run away in towel and scream, and you get jailed for attempted rape accusation.

The only guarantee for consent sex would be something verbal like telling the guy 'join me if you want'

Women who love to do such 'signs' and reading this, stop with these stupid and oblivious signs already and be verbal instead.

or these are all from aspies or other social disorder people.

I don't get the hand thing either. why not just grab his hand if she wants to hold hands, that is what it is right? I'm guessing it is because all them seem to be about sex or physical contact and so it must be something along those lines to keep in pattern with the rest.

doubt I would come to my guess if not for the pattern.

I have sneaking suspicion the the many of these sorts of articles are made up on the train into work.

Would you know the difference? It is just fill.

Me too, but it still made laugh. :lol:

Besides, with 7 billion people in the world there's a good chance that some of these have happened at sometime to somebody.

The problem I think with certain hints is not that the other person doesn't pick them up, but sometimes the other person believes they may be reading too much into it and/or overthinking things.

For example that 'hands are cold' one to me I can easily pick up what it MIGHT mean, but what it MIGHT mean just might not be what it ACTUALLY means.

I could say "Ooh, does she want to hold hands?" but without backing up her initial hint with something a bit less subtle and something a bit more clearer or continuing to repeat that her hands are cold, I simply won't know enough to act and won't be doing anything.

At least hints are supposed to make you think, supposed to make you question whether someone has feelings for you or not. But if you're not clear enough in your hints no one's going to pick anything up or even if they do not reach the correct conclusion or one at all.
