We're guessing that many boys and men alike would love to know exactly how to tell if a girl likes you. Now, we could give you some tips and pointers on that, but sadly, it's not so simple with the girls. The foxy ladies like to include some subtle hints into sending signs that she likes you. And the signs themselves can be so faint that misinterpreting them could lead to all sorts of disaster. But even when a woman tries to make her intentions as clear as they possibly can, some guys just don't know how to take a hint, no matter how obvious that hinting might be. Check out these funny stories of missed and mixed signals to see what we mean.
The texts contain some of the funniest examples of women trying - and failing - to seduce oblivious members of the opposite sex. Have you also tried going after someone but they were oblivious to your intentions? Or maybe you have just realized how blind you were and couldn't spot someone's delicate hints in trying to seduce you? If so, share your stories below and don't forget to upvote your favorite ones!

Me: You talk a lot and smile a lot when you're around me
Girl: Yeah, what ya gonna do? You gonna stop me ;)
Me: Yeah I could stop you talking
Girl: How you gonna do that? ;)
Me: *puts hand over her mouth, laughs and walks away*
She was crazy about me and I was crazy about her and we had loads of situations like this happen but neither ever had the confidence to tell the other truth. This story doesn't have a happy ending like the rest..we aren't together, we dont even talk anymore...

texts with my bf the day after him trying to get into my pants on a date:
me: I almost didn't stop you yesterday
bf: I wasn't going to go all the way
me: how far were you going to go?
bf: fingering
me: now I'm horny
bf: I wish there was something I could do about it
bf: I wasn't going to go all the way
me: how far were you going to go?
bf: fingering
me: now I'm horny
bf: I wish there was something I could do about it
me later: well, thanks for nothing. I kinda had been hoping that you would try and help out, but i guess I'll have to be less subtle in the future
bf: that flew right over my head
bf: that flew right over my head

I told my guy I was too old for him even though he was perfect for me in every way. He believed me. A year of hinting friendship that included hundreds of dates, shared birthdays, Christmas and new year spent just with me, he still didn't get that I had made him mine a long time ago. So new years day, I climbed on him and kissed him first. Seven years later, he's lying fast asleep next to me as I write this post and grow his baby.

My guy friend must be the most oblivious person on Earth. We went to a party at a mutual friend's house, and there was this girl that he has a thing for, and I can tell she's really into him as well (but he's too damn oblivious to notice). She lives about 40 miles away, so she has to come here by train. Anyway, they look for each other immediately and spend the whole night talking. As it got later and later, people start to drop off. I left at about 1 AM and there were only my friend, the girl,

This post is literally my boyfriends life. I am a full time student and work a full time job, so I pretty much live in jeans, t-shirts and little to no makeup everyday of my life. When I want to have sex I normally style my hair nicely, put on a full face of makeup, will suggest going out to dinner and I put actual real clothes on. I will go to bed naked like he likes. I'll even brush over his packaged a few times! He will kiss me goodnight and pass out unless I mention sex at dinner.

My now husband never Missed a beat when he told me how he felt, I however was dumb as dirt. He came to my apartment one night, at 1a.m. while my kids were with their dad. He knew I was fresh out of the tub and we were talking on the phone, he asked for my address and obliviously gave it to him and never heard him call a taxi from his house phone. He showed up and I didnt think much of it. We were roommates a year and a half prior. I had no clue he was there to seduce me. We are now 8 years strong

Being completely oblivious in my youth I got a note passed to me by the cutest bustiest girl in class asking if I wanted to "mack"with her. Not knowing that mack meant make out, I looked at her and said "what the fuck? No?" She loathed with a passion for the rest of the year for unknowingly shutting her down. It didn't help she was my cousin's best friend as it turns out so she was always over at her house and mine....
Ps it's ok though she ended trapping her bf by putting holes in the rubber

I used to work as a head cook and one day our barista came and joined me for a smoke outside. This chick was smoking hot the kind of women that had all the rights bits and sizes. Anyway she doesn't smoke, then she gave me a lift home and told me about her love life and how she really just wants a no strings attached friend. Long story short she dropped me home and I said bye and that story still stings to this day

guy i had liked for years with mutual subtle flirting... we're at a friend's birthday do... chatting about random unimportant stuff...
me: you know, it's such a strange coincidence that we've never been single at the same time, either you're taken and i'm not or vice versa
him: yes it is a coincidence
me (hopeful): well since you broke up with her last month, i want to tell you i'm now single too...
him: wow, now that IS a coincidence! *continues chatting about random stuff*
me: 0.o
him: yes it is a coincidence
me (hopeful): well since you broke up with her last month, i want to tell you i'm now single too...
him: wow, now that IS a coincidence! *continues chatting about random stuff*
me: 0.o

In the college auditorium with an extremely pretty junior who was a volunteer along with me in the security team. We've known each other for a few weeks and get along well. So she's leaning into me completely as the auditorium is dark while performances are on & starts telling me, quote "we have we kissed yet" & I asked her why would we! She answered saying cause you're my bf. We still didn't kiss or date. I regret that everyday.

Back in college a friend of mine drove to my apartment to surprise me for my birthday. He and I had known each other forever and we'd been flirting heavily on and off for years. That weekend he spent the night at my place and I figured it was time to make a real move, so I told him he didn't need to spend the night on my couch, I had a queen sized bed and more than enough room (I had no pants on as I said this). His response? "No it's okay. I snore and you have exams tomorrow." His loss.

I was in a student production of Les Mis, and all the girls were told to create families with the guys to have connections at the barricade. So I liked this one guy, and I figured now or never, so I went over and asked jokingly if he'd marry me, since he's the cutest guy in the room. Took him a month to catch on.

I had started talking to this guy a few weeks back and we really hit it off. Because of this, I started to develop feelings. Fast forward a week, I was feeling a bit desperate, wanting this guy to know I liked him. So I asked him relationship advice (so I could use it on him). I always called him dork and explained what it meant during the convo (basically 'I like you') and he said 'yeah but I know you're just joking.' I wanted die from the irony. But anyway we've been together for a day now.

I used to have a much younger colleague and he was a timid and quite guy while I was a chatty woman. Somehow we get close and we found that we shared similar interest in art and music. One day he said that he would like to go to an art exhibition by himself and that exhibition happened to be the one that I would like to attend and he knew it. My reaction was: Ah cool.
I know think that was his way asking me out.

To show that not only boys are oblivious to hints. When I was in highschool I was walking home with HIM and a friend(girl). He wispered something in her ear and said "Tell her!". She refused.Then they argued for a bit, but I wasnt paying attention. After that I aked what was that about. Since the girl wouldnt say, I asked my friend and after I told him not to akt like a child he said " I love you" so fast that I almost didnt hear him. I said"Oh. I-I love you too" and that was it. Nothing hapened
