We all love to joke about how guys are clueless when girls are hitting on them. Men, what hint from a women actually got through to your brain?

    When she walked up to me and said “hey I think you’re cute”. Less of a hint lmao

    A female friend of mine were talking one day and I told her I liked blondes. Three days later she dyed her hair blonde. It took me weeks to finally put it together. I’m dumb.

    She showed interest in something I liked and it wasn’t something she was a fan of.

    She texted “I’m bored and cute come fix that” and my brain finally rebooted

    Had just started dating a girl, went to pick her up, was surprised she answered the door in a towel. She told me she had to jump in the shower before we left for our movie, “We’ll probably have to go to a later show, I hope I can figure out a way to make it up to you.” She let the towel drop to the floor well before she had left my eye line.

    I had been too nervous / scared to make any sort of move prior to this.

    I can’t figure it out. And sometimes I think I do see
    hints but then I think how many stories I hear of guys thinking anything is flirting and end up looking creepy so I just pedal back to “nah I’m imagining it”

    For me it was more that hindsight realisation after becoming intimate & having relationships of that sudden click of all those past interactions that completely went over my head 😂

    I’m happy with how everything gone regarding my love life & wouldn’t change it (even the bad relationships, I see it as I probably wouldn’t have ended up where I did and meeting my current partner and love or my life if I hadn’t been where I was) but damnnn that realisation of some of the fun I could have had if it wasn’t for being oblivious makes me think 😂
    Still wouldn’t swap my current partner for any of those experiences though

    I tried to kiss her on the cheek, she turned her head and french kissed me.

    I’d call that fairly clear

    The first time, a girl I was talking to at the bar asked if I wanted to go back to her condo. She’d already said she still lived with her parents, so I didn’t exactly jump. Then she said her parents were away for the weekend. I did the math and said ok, let’s go.

    The second time, I was out playing pool at a bar. A girl I was talking to that night walked over as I was leaning on the table trying to decide what shot I wanted to make first. She walked right up to the table and leaned her nether area against the back of my hand where it rested on the table. I quickly lost the game and we went out to her car in the far corner of the lot for some more… conversation.

    While watching a movie with a female friend. I jokingly asked how she wasn’t cold in her short shorts as I was freezing. She told me she’ll warm me up, and proceeded to grab my hand and place it between her bare thighs.

    I was pretty certain this was flirting, but part of my brain thought she might actually just be trying to warm me up. Then she stuck her tongue down my throat and even my dumbass finally took the hint.

  15. RansomPowell Avatar

    She pushed me up against a wall and made out with me similar to Topanga pushing Corey against the lockers.

    Later I asked a mutual friend to confirm my assumption she was flirting with me.

    Edit: We’ve been married for 17 years

    I asked if I could kiss her cheek. She grabbed me and kissed me on the mouth.

    If a woman touches me a lot during a conversation then I am aware there’s something going on between us

    Unless she’s drying her hands off on my shirt then not so much.

    Hints? My current squeeze changed right in front of me* in a hotel room and she STILL had to tell me a few hours later she always had a thing for me. I do NOT pick up on hints. Even ones that involve cute underwear.

    *Like, looking back on it. It was slow, deliberate, and down to bra and underwear.

    I was off at the side of a party, using the whiz palace in the woods and she came up and just grabbed my dick. Message received.

  25. Sombrerro Avatar

    She said “You know, Im thinking about starting to date again” while making eye contact. It was a good 30 minutes into a post group-activity lingering session where we both were clearly prioritizing chatting with each other. Only took me a week to put it together!

  26. ChewyZen Avatar

    Her friend walked over and said, “Hey my friend likes you.”

  27. MagicTheBadgering Avatar

    “I’m literally in your bed with you. Are you going to kiss me?”

  28. Falstaffe Avatar

    She came back to my place, sat on my kitchen benchtop swinging her legs, and said, “I think if I don’t have sex with you right now, I’m going to die.”

    I did what I could to help her out.

  29. waylandsmith Avatar

    Met at a mutual friend’s house party. Clueless to her flirting. Finally, “hey, why don’t we go up to the tree house and look at the full moon together?” 10 minutes later, “so, are you going to kiss me or what?” 30 minutes later, “what are you doing after this party?… Really? Or you can take me home and fuck me?” We spent 5 years together.

    I was always clueless with women. I was a virgin when I first went to college. I met a girl who I invited to go to a frat party. She suggested we go back to her dorm room for better beer. We get there and I carefully make a show of pouring the perfect glass of beer for her. I turn around to hand her the beer and she was naked…

  32. DarthVeigar_ Avatar

    The issue in my experience isn’t that men are clueless, it’s that a lot of women’s “hints” are absolute vague SHIT.

    I’ve had female friends rant about someone not catching their hints and when I ask them what they did they say something like “Oh I smiled at him”. A lot of women don’t get that their “hints” can easily be construed as common courtesy.

    TLDR ladies, if you’re interested in someone, ask them.

    there’s women who have hit on me?
    when? where? who?

    The best thing about dating my back in the day wife is she’s straight forward. “I want you to fuck me” is what she said and didn’t mince her words.

    An explicit SMS message like “You know, I really felt some chemistry between us earlier today, do you think we could hook up next time?”. I still had second thoughts on how serious the message was tho xD.

  36. sax87ton Avatar

    I’ve said this a couple times before. But it answers your question.

    In high schools one day this clique girls came over and told me their friend liked me. Now they weren’t like directly antagonistic to me or my clique but they were like, bully adjacent clowns. Like they ragged on everyone. So, myself and even my friend group thought they were teasing me / using me to tease this girl. Especially because both they and the girl were like laughing about it.

    They would do this periodically, and eventually I came to consider that they were being genuine. But eventually I went to a dance and the girl pulled me out onto the dance floor. And at that point it was pretty obvious she was being genuine, but it took like literally 2 years.

    A girl in college I thought despised me mentioned a movie I wanted to see. I said it’s playing on Saturday at 4 so I’m going to see it. She said “ok so we are going. It’s a date.”
    I wondered why she was nice all of a sudden as i showed up to the theater and asked to come back to my apartment for a drink. I still didn’t get it. I thought “hey we are finally cool I have a new friend”

    Naw she just wanted to hook up. She kept getting closer and closer until she kissed me and then it all came together in my head.

    She told me after that she liked me since she saw me on campus. I just wasn’t getting her mean girl hints.

    Yeah I’m still not there. Girl making out with me. Puts my hand on her thigh. Asks if I wanted to sleep in her bed or the couch. I said bed. And we slept. That was all. I’m an idiot.

    It was my last day of a summer internship at a law firm. I was headed back to school. They took me out for drinks. One paralegal was really hot and definitely wanted me. I was trying to figure out how to swing it (I was at my parents for the summer) when a first year lawyer looked at me and said “it’s her or me”. I didn’t know this girl was interested in me at all.

  43. Seeker-of-life Avatar

    A girl followed me of the train stopped me and said “I’m sorry but I just had to get let you know that I think your absolutely gorgeous” – never happened before, never will happen again.

    We went for coffee and were together 4 years – didn’t end well but at least I have that story

  44. LeadSponge420 Avatar

    We’re taught to respect women’s boundaries and not assume she likes you because they’re nice to you. It’s not that we miss the cues, but that we ignore them because we don’t want to be that creepy guy.

    For me, I had been hanging out with her all night after she took me home from the bar. Every time I touched her in anyway she talked about how nice that was. I didn’t want to assume she was interested until I went to hug her good night and she kissed me.

    Though… she still claims that I kissed her 25 years later.

    This girl in college who I went to high school with but didn’t really know. We started studying together. She was cute but out of my league. I was at her place and took off my hoody and my shirt came up with it. She blushed. I made a joke about it and we ended up dating until I moved a few months later.

  46. CapnRamza Avatar

    We’d been talking on discord for a long time, and at one point I got a hint that maybe there was a little flirting going on, after which, I told her that if someone were to hypothetically be flirting with me over the internet they’d need to be a lot more blunt about it because I’m a complete idiot.

    She then sent me some pictures that were difficult to mistake for anything but flirting, even for me.

    We’ve been married almost a year and a half now.

    A girl at a party who I had been talking to for a large portion of the night got me a blanket and sat under it with me when it started to get cold. She asked me where I was sleeping for the night, I said I had brought a tent but couldn’t be bothered setting it up, so I’ll probably just sleep in my car. She urged me to set it up, and I had heaps of excuses, it’s dark, tent is hard to set up, etc. She finally convinced me, and we set it up together. It wasn’t until she lay down with me on the airbed that I realized she wanted to set it up so she could sleep with me that night. How I got this far in life without being able to read basic human signals I’ll never know

    A girl at a nightclub grinded her butt at me quite ferociously. Then she turned around, looked at me and elbowed me in my stomach.

    After that I gave up

    I was hanging out with some friends and this girl was there with an amazing ass and bright pink hair. She comes up and hugs me and says, quite clearly “Your cock, my mouth. Now.”

    One of the top 5 hottest moments of my life.

    she walked up to me in a bar and said “do you want to come home with me”. I was 17 and a virgin. I did not fumble that one

    She was over at my apartment, after playing video games and talking for hours she asked to spend the night; I said yes and then she replied with something to the effect of, “But your couch is so uncomfortable, can we just cuddle instead?”

    (yes I am so dense it took that to break through)

    When I was in my early twenties I was on a 2nd date with a girl, we were walking around a park, and she said something like “I can’t wait for you to be inside of me”. She ended up being a freak in bed but the relationship only lasted 3 months because she was kinda psycho. I broke up with her and a year later she wanted to meet up with me in person so I agreed. She apologized about how much of a bitch she was to me and that the breakup sent her into a dark place in which she ended up becoming a Christian and changed her life for the better. I said “you’re welcome?”

    This was back in the good old ICQ days. I was around 11, chatting online with my crush. Somehow, I got brave and asked her if she liked anyone. She said yes… and that his name had five letters.

    Now, my name has five letters, too. But for some reason, I counted six. SIX!? I was crushed. Heartbroken. I immediately logged off like it was the end of the world.

    The next day at school, she comes up to me and asks if I want to be her boyfriend.

    I was totally confused.

    Then… I recounted the letters in my name.

    Five.

    Just… five.

    I basically nearly lost a relationship over a math error.
    11-year-old me was not ready for that kind of emotional calculus.

    The relationship only lasted two weeks.
    We didn’t do much, just held hands.
    I mean, we were 11. It was basically a non legally binding friendship.

    She took her pants off, leaned back in a chair, and spread her legs to show me her thong.

    Then she pulled it to the side…

    Seemed a good hint to me.

    I couldn’t understand why she was acting aggressively towards me and I was trying to calm her down. She finally explained she was experiencing a chemical imbalance called Pon Farr and needed to mate with me or she would die.

    I am absolutely a worst-case scenario for hint giving people, and I made sure my (now wife) knew it as soon as we started talking.

    I grew up with a single mother and four sisters. All of which are hint people to varying degrees, two of which are also extreme hint people and extreme passive aggressives.

    I got sick and tired of being blamed or ridiculed for unsaid things by the time I was like 10. And took a very vocal “I am not a psychic, if you dont say it properly, even if I get your hint, im going to ignore it.” Stance, which I maintain to this day.

    To my wife’s infinite credit. She listened to me, and really heard it and ive never felt like she’s tried that hint stuff.

    A girl once walked over to me, sat on my lap, put her arms around my neck, and said “I really want to sleep with you”.

    I still required clarification.

    I always say I need a hint like a brick through a window.

    One day when my band was preparing to play a show in Hoboken I spotted a friend of mine walking across the street towards me. She made a determined beeline for me and push me up against the wall that I was standing near, kiss me deeply on the mouth and shoved her hand down the front of my pants.

    After what must have been 30 seconds or 6 hours I’m not quite sure she broke off and held my head in her hands and said “You are coming home with me tonight, do you understand?”

    I got that hint, friends. I got that hint.

    When I was 20 or 21, I was doing my laundry at a laundromat and a woman I worked with at the time came in and hung out with me while I washed, dried, folded, etc. She was kinda touchy feely, but even then, I didn’t think anything of it because we had been friends since jr high and I had other touchy, huggy friends. I was not picking up any of what I realize now were obvious signals and eventually she said “Jesus H Christ” and just kissed me lol which then led to her roasting the shit out of me for not picking up on anything. I just threw my hands up and said I didn’t want to assume anything lol my bad

    My now girlfriend asked me what I thought of her skirt. I answered jokingly that it was cute, but it looked like a fancy curtain. She responded: “would you like to see what’s behind this curtain”? It was at that moment that I began to think she may be flirting with me.

    Not a guy but have a story to share.

    My mom met my stepdad at a job she was a temp at. He was 15 years older, beerbelly,  very nerdy/geek, but funny and kind. My mom was thin, tall, always well put together in her mid 20s. He said later that he thought she was so out of his league.

    Well mom had her sights on him. She’d unplug cords from her work computer constantly and ask him to come help her fix it. For days and weeks this went on. Finally one time while he was plugging back in her computer and making small talk she slammed her hand on the desk and said “WHEN are you going to just ask me out???”

    He was flabbergasted lol.

    Am the woman. My now husband was far too polite to assume I was as into him as he was me. When I found out he’d never seen boobs in person before, I happily offered to show him mine. He almost fainted and refused because, as I later learned, he was so worried he’d get “too horny” and offend me somehow. I also learned he’d never kissed anyone before, so I very eagerly offered to be his first. It took weeks to convince him that I really did want to kiss him. He considered himself lucky to have such a good friend who would do that for him.

    It wasn’t until we were mid-fuck one day and I told him that I loved him that he realized maybe, just maybe, I wasn’t just being friendly.

    He’s the love of my life and I would gladly do it all over again, but damn, dude. If I willingly put your dick in my mouth repeatedly, I promise I’m a least a little into you.

    I was a nice shy little country boy at the club making eye contact with this cute little blonde, she eventually came over and said hi, we danced for a while then she grabbed me by the back of the head pulled me towards her and gave me a deep passionate kiss. When she was done, and still holding the back of my head she said “I wondered when your were going to kiss me? ” So I was like “I think she likes me” so I went in for seconds. We’ll be married 22 years in August. 😁
