I have no clue. I do know the difference between someone trying to help someone, and someone trying to talk down to someone, though. If you decide to do the former, lemme know.

Where is the implication coming from that I would not treat someone I assumed liked me with kindness and respect, or people in general? That's not fair at all. I know the difference between basic attraction and lust.

Neither of us would lose anything in that situation, in my opinion.

If a women is talking to you, making direct eye contact, perhaps even laughing at your jokes, that doesn't mean she wants to sex you.

That's true. But just because I assume a woman likes me, does not mean the thought in my head is 'Holy shit I have a boner. Let me sex her.' Assuming a woman likes me is the simplest way for my stupid man brain to be aware that 'Holy shit, this may be my chance. Act cool and don't blow it.'

I would love some detail on where I went wrong.

And, then I reply being an a-hole. I'm sorry. Thanks for the help.

Fuck. Now I got all passive-aggressive. I'm sorry. Thanks for helping.

Yeah, assuming every girl likes you, to me, means being ready to turn on the charm. Not, 'are you dtf?'

Ohhh, wait, you were being sarcastic with a shade of passive-aggression. I'm sure the accurate and helpful lesson you were trying to impart would be more impactful if you tried being polite when pointing out a stranger's ignorance.

If you look further down in the thread, you will see someone corrected me. I appreciate the heads up. Unless you were being passive-aggressive, in which case: there was a nice way to say that.

I got a helpful comment from a woman further down in the thread. Appreciate the heads up, tho.

I'm sorry for saying 'females.' I definitely would like to avoid being a sexist douchebag because of word choice. Or really any reason. Those guys suck.

OK. That's pretty clever.

Because it is so hard to find a female who is attracted to us that we are forced to assume they all are just so we don't miss an opportunity.

"It gives me incredible energy I don't get from other food and drinks," Anthony from Queens told NYMag.com. "I don't believe in steroids or other energy supplements, none of that garbage. I want natural stuff that's God-given, and if it's okay with moms looking to get rid of it, I'll take it."

I gave you a kidney and you can't even walk the dog!
