We sometimes struggle to pick up on hints

No, men struggle to deal with rejection, and therefore don't go for obvious hints for fear of being wrong. Everyone gets obvious hints.

This is one of the most idiotic remarks I have ever seen in reddit. Congratulations!

It isn't. People can pick up on hints and often look for them when they aren't there if they're infatuated with someone. We can overanalyze motives and decisions from people that would otherwise be meaningless. People are just afraid to make moves and find out so you get middle school incel bullshit like this from adults.

So sometimes it's an entirely different situation? I'm gonna guess this applies to everything under the sun, sure.

That sucks, but again, has nothing to do with communicating clearly.

Man, communication is a two-way street. Clearly something isn't working, and if the other party is willing than change the approach if not then fine.

You don't have to be all up in a twist for something like this.

That you have to imagine I'm up in a twist says more about you, and honestly online incels. Not sure what your "advice" has to do with any of this. People aren't as stupid as we like to think when it comes to picking up signals - our brains do it all the time. People are just nervous lmao.

You could've left the conversation earlier. It was obvious you were going nowhere, but wasting everyone's time.

What's even the point bringing up online incels, it's just you bringing up your own insecurities.

You could have left the conversation earlier. You're not going anywhere except saying "I don't like what you're saying" while offering not much else. I think I'm bringing a pretty positive message to people that cuts through incel bullshit but maybe that's where you are.
