No. Once bitten twice shy, and I got bitten over and over again. Falling in love with every person who was nice to me in high school was a massive mistake and caused nothing but hardship. The last two decades have been relatively peaceful because I don’t buy it anymore. Fuck reading between the lines, fuck hints, fuck signals and vibes. I’m never acting unless I receive DIRECT CLEARLY EXPRESSED FREELY GIVEN ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENT and not a moment sooner.
I will never trust my ““intuition”” ever again.
Was one of the signs her saying something like “Hey, I’m attracted to you, would you like to explore a potential relationship?” ?
Otherwise f off with “signs”
Yes, but I’m assuming she’s just kind and joking around.
Or hear me out, they were just being a kind person.
I’m definitely not one of those. Stop assuming that, dammit!
Meh, had this too often. The moment I make a move they usually withdraw. Nowadays I let people know that if they’re interested, hints won’t cut it. Either ask me out or stop that shit. I’ve had enough rejections to the point where I’d rather stay single than go through this hell again. ✌️
I have realized one day that years ago when she invited me in for a beer after a night out when I went to pickup my sunglasses that I left with her, it probably wasn’t about the beer, though to be fair to me, I thought she was still seeing this guy I knew so I basically had that part of my brain turned off around her.
Goth girl i worked with at Tacobell in college, I guess, was flirting with me often? She gave me this burned CD, and her music was weird, so I just threw it in my binder. Years later, I finally listened to it, and it was all songs about having sex.
I think she might have been interested in me?
I would cum if a goth girl burned me a CD
This would torment me for life. The potential of having a goth gf and missing out. It didn’t happen to me and I’m tormented over it.
idk, is she Canadian? she might’ve just been polite
If she’d burned a loop of herself saying “Pistcow, let us fuck”, it would only have been slightly more direct.
Nah man that’s what she is into and only wanted to share the music taste. Also I am a Penguin.
Nice to read I’m not alone in this.
now that’s a title. well done.
Ha, imagine getting signals.
I have to find women in order to get any signals.
I’ve gotten many signals near roads. just wear a hi-vis vest and take them home
Same. Not much around here in my travel range (not aware of anything social applicable to me), so the people who talk to me are definitely being cordial. Which is less awkward for me anyhow.
I don’t leave the house (or talk to people) enough for the idea to seem anything other than silly.
So funny thing you mention that. You’re describing me.
For a very long time, I was in denial about being touched with the 'tism. Some behaviors of mine that I noticed I couldn’t ignored and asked some friends about them. Did some tests without thinking through my constant camouflage and yeah, definitely have ASD. I mentioned it to friends and family and they all said something similar to “you finally figured it out huh?” So hopefully I can start to gain more energy for going out as long as I don’t feel the need to camouflage. One thing at a time though.
The other thing that doesn’t help is that I identify demiguy more than as a man. So I know my behavior and appearance doesn’t quite fit the “masculinity” picture - regardless if it’s toxic or not. Im definitely male, I’m definitely attracted to women, but like I like having soft hands. I’m a softer personality, I’d rather listen to gossip than think/pay attention/care about sports.
Having discovered that though, maybe it too will help my confidence and lead to better interactions.
I’m challenging myself to be this real me, and see if it leads to more signals.
Still doesn’t help trying to find where people are.
I’m the king of obliviousness. She passed her hand over my dick. Twice.
Maybe she was Canadian? You never know.
What show is the img from?
It is indeed AI, and imagine my disappointment to learn this because as you can probably guess I would watch the hell out of a random cyberpunk anime involving goth chicks and penguins.
I guess we still have Evangelion, which is probably what this is riffing off of anyways.
(A note to interested readers that there is also Penguin Highway, which I thought was halfway decent.)
It seems to be a penguin suit
Being worn by someone awfully short. Perhaps he’s secretly a duck.
Did you just assume the gender of the penguin-suit wearer?
I think it’s ai, she appears to be floating and the ceiling is weird. I could be wrong though, 80% sure.
Thank you are correct https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/penguin-and-goth-girl
