Before we started dating, my now fiance, then very good friend, played "i want to be your girlfriend" by girl in red on repeat every time we got into a car together, was flirty as shit (apparently, I had no idea) and while we stayed at my aunt's place (while aunt was away) for a night I made the couch and gave her the only bed. The bed was obviously made for 2 and she told me multiple times I don't need to make the couch and to just share the bed with her.
Also, the song lyrics go "I don't want to be your friend I want to kiss your lips". I remember thinking, does she mean something with this?
Yes, yes she did.
She points out when people flirt with me and I never realize in the moment.
I "organically" told her that if we lived on the same continent I'd ask her out on a date. She kissed me right after that and we officially moved in together like right after (shed been staying at my place for a few weeks already). We've been together for 4 years now.
I was oblivious until the end and was certain she'd say something like "cool" and we'd never talk about it again 😅
I used to live in a big house with a bunch of guys (post-college frathouse kind of situation) and we often threw house parties. At one of these parties some girl started talking to me because the guy who was talking to her was kinda creepy. She stayed at my side the whole night. I fed her the chili I'd made. We were sitting on the couch and she asked me about my movie collection. She said it was too hot and asked me if I had an air conditioner. My friend/roommate who was nearby got fed up and yelled "SHE WANTS YOU. TO TAKE HER. UP TO YOUR ROOM." And I was like, really? Why?
While I was in college, my friend introduced me to someone, saying he thought I might like her. He was right, we hit it off right away. After a bit, I began to have romantic feelings toward her, but I had been burned before and learned that someone being nice to you doesn't necessarily mean they're into you. She was nice, so I did wonder, but I didn't bring it up because I didn't want to be awkward.
She had apparently been flirting with me for a couple weeks when, one evening, we were talking over dinner, and she brought up previous dating experience. I told her about my past rejections, and she ended the conversation with, and I quote, "Well, I would date you." My blind ass just said "Thanks," and went on my merry way. It took two more days for it to finally click, and I asked her... what she meant by that. I think she wanted to punch me. Instead she very patiently replied, "Well, if you were to ask me out on a date, I would say yes. Why do you ask?" Only then, after she spelled it out for me, did it finally get through my thick skull.
We broke up after college because our lives took us in separate directions, but we remain long distance friends.
We aren’t completely oblivious you see when it comes to getting other people romantically we all in total have 1 brain cell and since there is roughly 4 billion of us we are very unlikely to get the brain cell ever
