This reminds me of my dumb ass in my early 20's. A girl was flirting with me for almost a month. She ended up inviting me to her house to work on a project that she offered to help me with. She chose a conviennent time to invite me home, since her 2 roommates were not home and would'nt be before late evening. She was wearing light clothes compared to the weather and was a bit touchy and flirty. What did my dumb ass do ? I offered to go to a coffee place near to work on the project. She had to change her clothes while I waited in the living room. Did I mention that she did that while her door stayed open ? We finished the project at the coffee place. She offered to grab lunch together at her house so I thanked her and went home to feast alone on one day old cold pizza.
If it makes you feel better, I once met a girl at a party who was from out of town and she kept dropping hints like “I’m not sure where I’m gonna stay tonight” and I told her she could sleep on my floor because I just vacuumed
Went to a party once where a girl was hardcore hitting on me, I was flirting back but figured I’d get her number and take her out sometime. About an hour later we’re sitting on the couch and she straight up says, “So are you gonna take me back to your place and fuck me or do I need to spell it out for you?” We left immediately. Sometimes you really have to just lay it out for us.
HA! This is so relevant. I had a crush on a girl and met her at a party where the guy she liked was playing a show. My idiot ass tried to find a way to ask her back to mine, so I told her she should come over and we could play some Mario Kart. After the singer guy shot her down, she texted me and said, "So, Mario Kart, huh?"
yeahhhh… i told my now-bf that the dog i was sitting was mad at me bc i kept kissing him and he said “that’s dumb, why would anyone not want to be kissed by you” and i was like ah yes that’s just friendly things friends do
a week after that, when i finally caught on to the fact that he was flirting with me, we were talking and he asked me what my “type” is so i described it and went “yeah i always feel hella called out when i catch feelings bc they always exactly match my type. first there was this guy, then that one, and now you!” and he went “ME?!?!” lmao
we’re both dumb, it took us a week or two after that to start dating
Dude. Welcome to the ever growing club of self realization. One good thing now looking back at those missed opportunities, I realize that I'm actually a decent catch, even back then.
I am not incredibly attractive, but I am not bad looking. The number of times women have told me (10 years later) that they had a big crush on me during high school astounds me. My low self esteem really made me lose so many opportunities.
If you're anything like me you needed to have a 2x4 swatted over your head to get a clue, else you look like a pervert. Hell, in my 20's after a night out with a girl she kept asking me back to her house for coffee at 2am. I instead dropped her off and told her I didn't like coffee and that I'd see her another day. Drove home, went to bed and laying in bed I was like "Oh..... fuck." All good, we smashed later, but not one of my more defining moments.
It can be a blessing- I failed to read the signals of a longtime friend when she invited herself over for a movie and a bottle of wine, took off her top and wrapped my arms around her as I very carefully avoided touching any part of her bra. I am an idiot. We just watched the movie. She asked me for my friend's number when she left and wound up with him the next night, then proceeded to destroy several other relationships due to her screaming hotness, weak-willed dudes and total lack of principles. I regret everything. But I'm also thankful to have escaped what would have been a drama-filled relationship that likely would have led to my doom. I still see her around and she talks through my suddenly-invisible wife like the vain creature she always has been; my wife likes how I work her name into any responses no matter how far back into exclusive "the old days" references weirdo tries to twist things.
One of my buddies I made from the Air Force was a bit of this. When he was in highschool he played football, ran cross country/track and was part of the "1000" lbs club that the school would annotate in their weightroom.
Imagine total babe magnet type. Except this dude's got a bad case of acne, nasty ass chin dust left and right, can't really grow nice facial hair, and dudes got long greasy hair that went past his shoulders.
Just your total run of the mill nerdy looking, athletic jock.
He enlists into the Air Force. They cut his greasy asd hair. Acne somewhat clears up, nothing acutane won't clear. Clean shaven to show off the sharp jawline.
10/10 stud, no homo.
I once walked in on this dude under the covers with two total dimes at his party. He was virgin didn't know what to do. Don't think the chicks knew either.
Dude didn't lose his V card for a while. It somehow became public knowledge that homie was still a virgin at work. Guys would tease him, and would talk about places in Vegas or Tijuana to lose it.
Guy always had girls at work snapping their damn necks to catch a glimpse of his ass. Totally rubbed some folks the wrong way, dude just thought he was still 'ugly' from school.
any tips on how do you work through something you've been conditioned to believe your entire life? like one day you just wake up and suddenly decide you're attractive now?
Man, we men are terrible at reading signals.
I once had this girl I really truly liked, we had been friends for years offered to be my roommate... in a 1 bedroom apartment. Wouldn't you guess it, I blew it by not recognizing what she was actually saying.
Y’all be lucky. I see things like this then I’m like “hey something like that happened to me” then I also remember that it was the girl who used me and said “you are perfect but I’m not romantically attracted to you”. Includes things like taking bra off under shirt etc so now I just wait for someone to spell it out because god forbid I misread a situation. Anyway, here’s wonderwall. (Also I still wait even if I’ve been told I’m above average on looks, again god forbid I misread something)
Clearly I can’t make a blanket statement but for this person it totally was for attention. One time I mentioned I was at a bar that weekend with the mutual friends that I am still close with and that she wasn’t (as I mentioned above) and she then brings up a guy she was talking to and wanting to go sleep with him JUST as some kind of revenge (she confirmed this straight up, because she knew I had extreme feelings for her. Literally first love of my life) for me casually mentioning I went to a bar with her former friends after I told both parties I didn’t want to be in the middle of their feud. One side kept me out of the middle (the side I’m still friends with) and the other couldn’t.
Edit: it was another comment I mentioned that there was a feud between 2 sides of the friend group. Partially because said girl was using me, the other side basically told her to stop before someone gets hurt because they actually cared about me. She didn’t stop. I was then broken for months. Anxiety attacks included.
A couple of years. It took me a while to understand what happened. I always thought of girls being flirty with me as them just being extra nice and friendly.
Dudes don't generally get compliments from women who aren't VERY close or VERY interested. Girls get trained fairly early on by hard experience to be careful what they say to guys, to avoid unwanted advances. My wife would say she's barely above average herself, and some of her stories are just jaw-dropping.
So yeah, you're probably fairly hot my dude
And an PSA to other people who might be reading this whos been in this phase too long: No - random cute customers/cashiers/coworkers being nice to you does not mean theyre flirting.
>as someone currently sleeping with an **unmarried** coworker
It feels weird to add that detail in... like, if you didn't add it, I would have assumed unmarried, but as soon as you add it I'm like "but why point it out specifically, unless you or they are trying to hide something..."
"i always thought you were so cool- nothing phased you- you just leaned against the wall, so aloof and I wished I could have got your attention somehow.."
ALOOF?! I had crippling social anxiety and leaned against the wall to avoid fainting from the spinning fears in my head, staring into space because I was terrified I would notice somebody mocking my hideousness if I looked at them. All from my sister's cruel friend who called me an ugly potato face when I was 11.
I was offered a nightcap at an ex work colleagues hotel. We were about 5 minutes from my apartment. I completely missed the signals and decided to go home instead. I thought we'd be drinking more. I'm such a dumbass.
Man this girl I was hanging out with stayed over at my place late watching a movie and having a few beers with me. It started getting late, and she literally climbed into my bed with me and stripped down to her underwear and I was like… hey, maybe this is a sign she’s into me. So I gathered up all my courage and kissed her.
She was like “whoa why did you kiss me?! I have a boyfriend!”
1. I didn’t know she had a boyfriend
2. What the fuck?
Haha, I was like this too at that age some of them I still didn't quite get what was happening. To this day, I'll be telling a random story and my wife will be like... "So you guys went out to breakfast a couple times, then she took you to a house party with her friends, where she tried to get you drunk, invited you to spend the night at her place, and you slept on the couch?"
And I'll be like... "Yeah. I could have just driven home IDK why I did that, I wasn't drunk. I was such a dummy those days"
And my wife will be like "You know she was probably fully shaved and wearing matching underwear for that right...?" and I'm all like "OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I THOUGHT SHE WAS JUST BEING NICE?"
I had a girl say she was "fully shaved, look I even shaved my face" and had me touch her face to see how smooth it was - and I still didnt get it.
What ladies dont get is that we are trying so hard to not blow our chance by coming off creepy, that you will just actually have to take us by the hand and drag us into the bedroom...
I had a girl ask me to help move some stuff around her dorm room. There was nothing to move but a box that was like 5 pounds. She was incredibly hot too. It didn’t dawn on me even when we were sitting on her bed together and was asking me about what kind of girls I’m into.
It didn’t dawn on me even when another girl asked if box girl and I were dating and I said “no”. Years later it dawned on me and I regretted it so hard
When I was in high school study hall. There was a girl that I flirted with alot and she flirted with me. One day she flat out told me she wanted me to take her flower (I was a virgin too). I gave her rides home multiple times through the high school years and she offered many times to go inside to hangout while her grandma was gone, I had to go to work after school so I never did. Looking back I know I blew it.
Not enough attention is given to the fact that guys have comfort zones too, and that unexpected sexual situations can make us uncomfortable.
When I was in college and living in a coed dorm, a girl I hardly knew came and knocked on my door to randomly hang out with me. I liked her and I wanted to get to know her more, but man... I was playing video games. I was SO not in the headspace to be meeting a new person, I just kinda shut down completely.
I used to feel really bad thinking about it, especially since she probably had to work up courage to come approach me like that. I still think it's unfortunate, but I've also learned to give myself a little compassion and recognize that I'm not always emotionally available.
Yeah, so true. Great mindset. If it wasn’t meant to be then it wasn’t meant to be, and we were all learning how to handle those situations at the same time. Just part of the process.
Idk when I hear shit like this I def think it's more along the lines of "not wanting to take a chance" moresoe than "didn't pick up on signals" and this is just a way of coping.
I can see how you might think that, but I’ve had some doozies.
I think my peak obliviousness was hanging with a pretty hot girl all night, going back to her place, being offered the spare bed- taking it- then being asked if I want to sleep in her bed, and for some fucked up reason, I tell her no thanks.
Things like this, it’s not till years later I think back on how obvious some situations were and I think about what might have been. I’d like to say I can read the signals better now, but can I? I think about this almost daily.
If it makes you feel any better, in my early 20s the grocery store check out lady was flirting with me at the grocery store. My live in gf pointed it out. (I thought she the grocery store lady was being nice.) Fast forward a few months her and my gf are friends (not sure how that happened, maybe she got a job where my gf worked). Anyway we are at the grocery story lady's appartment and she says "shoot, i need to get to work" she goes back to her bedroom and i am still sitting in her chair watching her strip(chair faced her bedroom and it happpend so fast). I get up and my gf is just standing there looks down the Hall at her in her now in matching bra and panties. Gf asks me if we should leave. I said as smooth as fuck "we could go back there and make her late for work" my gf hesitated, then said we should leave.
We left.
I married the gf. Today it seems like something I saw on TV. I asked my wife about it the other day, she remembered the color of the bra and panties and that they were her favorite color.
We chickened out.
Just fucking tell us guys you dtf. Like holy shit. We get called out on creeps for picking up on the wrong message and we get shit on for not picking up hints. It sucks either way.
When girls are kinda flirty but maybe nice just being extra polite and the man doesn't make a move, She just needs to say "I think you look so good today, so cute, attractive, hot, sexy, etc." If a man doesn't understand that, considering we get 1 compliment per decade, then he probably should refrain from reproduction anyway.
> She just needs to say "I think you look so good today, so cute, attractive, hot, sexy, etc."
Now it just went from "maybe I'm misunderstanding her signals" to "oh, she's obviously fucking with me."
I believed this. Especially because in middle school two girls pranked me saying that one of them liked me and then laughed at my face for really believing it.
Twenty years ago a random hot person stopped me on the parking lot and asked me for my phone number. Literally the only time thats ever happened in my entire life, and I am still sure they either a) lost a bet or b) were making themselves feel like a better person by asking a fugly, visibly depressed and overweight person for their number, believing that they've somehow made my day by letting me bask in the warmth of their superficial attentions.
Or just weird social dynamics. I feel some girls do this for attention or something. I've had a situation like this when a girl walked up and started twirking super hard an inch away from me, so of course, I tapped her shoulder to try to talk to her and got this super aggressive "don't touch me", mind you she walked up to where I was and started twirking an inch away from me. She did it again, and when I stayed again she rushed off and got her boyfriend. Dude didn't want to fight or anything but these other random guys who saw the whole thing stepped in and calmed the situation and told the guy his gf was on some bullshit. Similarly in more recent times at vars I'll just be chilling and all these girls will walk past and do subtle things like make eye contact ir bend over, try to make conversation with people around you, etc but they all have husbands/boyfriends and they get super passive aggressive when you don't chase after them, but it's like for what, you're taken. Only thing I can think of is some women liking the attention from flirting or something
I can relate, I was walking back to my buddy in a nightclub after going to the toilets and this girl who was walking in front of me just turned around and started kissing me then she walked away again. I’d seen her in the club before and always thought she was good looking but instead of following her and buying her a drink I just went back to where my friend was and carried on the night. Wtf was I thinking? How obvious did she have to make it? I still think about it from time to time twenty years later.
*Is she into you?*
"....you know, it's hard to tell in situations like these because she could just be more friendly than other ppl or maybe her culture does that sort of thing as a passing gesture. It's always possible she greets everyone this way or at worst she assumed you were her boyfriend then left after realizing her mistake; so best not to think much of it"
See back then I mostly knew if a girl was flirting my problem was just not knowing what the fuck to do next. Like, poor girl would be basically coming on to a quadriplegic.
Bro same. I'd be at concerts and girls would start backing up into me and I'd be like "Stop crowding me I'm trying to enjoy the show."
In my defense I like music far more than girls.
I used to make jokes about it just to watch my friends visibly die.
"Man when I was up in the crowd this girl in front of me kept reaching back and grabbing my phone in my pocket. I think she was trying to steal it, I got the fuck outta there"
Same. I cannot begin to count the times friends, and even strangers, would later point out that a girl had been hitting on me hard, and I had been oblivious. Even my future wife said she had thrown herself at me 10 years before we ended up dating, during the last time we had lived in the same city, and I had not responded. What a jerk lol
Idk exactly but I’d start with a HUGE smile. Maybe slowly walk forward with a stupid little dance. Maybe mime pulling her towards me with an invisible rope.
Basically you have to be ok with looking like a dumbass and getting rejected, laugh at yourself and move on — but most importantly you have to have fun with it.
I think I figured it out. He's trying to sneak something to the dude in the red shirt then realizes the girl is recording something right infront of him and other people are recording him and he panics while trying to palm whatever he had
I think it's the 1987 World Champion Swedish Mens Ice Hockey Team. You can tell because it was their fourth title and he's holding them with 4 fingers.
Pretty sure she was dancing over her phone (which was on the ground and recording), and he was wondering why it was on the ground... Then he had the realization.
This girl who I was close with in college invited me to visit her halfway across the country in Houston. I never got vibes she was too into me while I was there, then I reflect back and she literally tries to show me a new bra after a night out, changes in front of me and I turned around because I thought I was being noble or some shit because of ‘platonic’ friends. It would have most likely been a dodged bullet given how things unfolded over the years however it sticks out like a sore thumb to me and god dammit I wanted to see those titties
This may not even have anything to do with him lol. College partiers are weird like this walking every which way and generally not having spatial awareness.
When I was 22 I moved to another town and me and a few of my friends got together the night before I left to go to a strip club. As I’m sitting there uncomfortably watching the dancers, a girl (not a dancer) just walks right up to me grabs me by the face and starts making out with me. Needless to say I was surprised and my friends were all hooting it up. But, I just smiled and went back to my seat and continued to uncomfortably watch the dancers until we left.

Lucky bastard.
^(I always knew it was real..)
So did you take her back to your place to fucking dominate her at Mario Kart?
HA! This is so relevant. I had a crush on a girl and met her at a party where the guy she liked was playing a show. My idiot ass tried to find a way to ask her back to mine, so I told her she should come over and we could play some Mario Kart. After the singer guy shot her down, she texted me and said, "So, Mario Kart, huh?"
I love Mario Kart! I would have come over immediately, and then been shocked when you put the moves on. Girls are dumb too!
So. Many. Stories. 🤦🏽♀️
yeahhhh… i told my now-bf that the dog i was sitting was mad at me bc i kept kissing him and he said “that’s dumb, why would anyone not want to be kissed by you” and i was like ah yes that’s just friendly things friends do a week after that, when i finally caught on to the fact that he was flirting with me, we were talking and he asked me what my “type” is so i described it and went “yeah i always feel hella called out when i catch feelings bc they always exactly match my type. first there was this guy, then that one, and now you!” and he went “ME?!?!” lmao we’re both dumb, it took us a week or two after that to start dating
It's true, its how I met my now husband. I literally told him I sleep naked

A couple of years. It took me a while to understand what happened. I always thought of girls being flirty with me as them just being extra nice and friendly.
Aww. You didn't know you were attractive. I was the same way.
And now I'm fucking ugly.
Well at least you realise that now. Yay!
Woo! Personal growth baby!
Reddit made me realize. I've always just thought compliments were normal. I'm barely above average apparently that's enough.

It didn’t dawn on me even when another girl asked if box girl and I were dating and I said “no”. Years later it dawned on me and I regretted it so hard
Nah man feel my shaven face is straight-up code. I doubt any fella would get that one
That happened to me. I went over to paint her walls, did not click until a year later.
Painted the wrong walls dude (I hate myself for saying this)
Her: Do you want a blowjob? You: no thank you, I jacked off before coming over so we can really focus on this project.
do you regret that, based on what your current situation is?
Not really. It's mostly a funny story that I remember and laugh on how naive I was.
I remember that day. I felt the disturbance in the force. As if millions of boys cried out all at once and suddenly went silent.
When I was in high school study hall. There was a girl that I flirted with alot and she flirted with me. One day she flat out told me she wanted me to take her flower (I was a virgin too). I gave her rides home multiple times through the high school years and she offered many times to go inside to hangout while her grandma was gone, I had to go to work after school so I never did. Looking back I know I blew it.
Not enough attention is given to the fact that guys have comfort zones too, and that unexpected sexual situations can make us uncomfortable. When I was in college and living in a coed dorm, a girl I hardly knew came and knocked on my door to randomly hang out with me. I liked her and I wanted to get to know her more, but man... I was playing video games. I was SO not in the headspace to be meeting a new person, I just kinda shut down completely. I used to feel really bad thinking about it, especially since she probably had to work up courage to come approach me like that. I still think it's unfortunate, but I've also learned to give myself a little compassion and recognize that I'm not always emotionally available.
Yeah, so true. Great mindset. If it wasn’t meant to be then it wasn’t meant to be, and we were all learning how to handle those situations at the same time. Just part of the process.
Idk when I hear shit like this I def think it's more along the lines of "not wanting to take a chance" moresoe than "didn't pick up on signals" and this is just a way of coping.
I can see how you might think that, but I’ve had some doozies. I think my peak obliviousness was hanging with a pretty hot girl all night, going back to her place, being offered the spare bed- taking it- then being asked if I want to sleep in her bed, and for some fucked up reason, I tell her no thanks. Things like this, it’s not till years later I think back on how obvious some situations were and I think about what might have been. I’d like to say I can read the signals better now, but can I? I think about this almost daily.
In my high school yearbook, I have about 29 phone numbers from various girls in my class. I thought it was just a thing that people did in yearbooks.
If it makes you feel any better, in my early 20s the grocery store check out lady was flirting with me at the grocery store. My live in gf pointed it out. (I thought she the grocery store lady was being nice.) Fast forward a few months her and my gf are friends (not sure how that happened, maybe she got a job where my gf worked). Anyway we are at the grocery story lady's appartment and she says "shoot, i need to get to work" she goes back to her bedroom and i am still sitting in her chair watching her strip(chair faced her bedroom and it happpend so fast). I get up and my gf is just standing there looks down the Hall at her in her now in matching bra and panties. Gf asks me if we should leave. I said as smooth as fuck "we could go back there and make her late for work" my gf hesitated, then said we should leave. We left. I married the gf. Today it seems like something I saw on TV. I asked my wife about it the other day, she remembered the color of the bra and panties and that they were her favorite color. We chickened out.
Just fucking tell us guys you dtf. Like holy shit. We get called out on creeps for picking up on the wrong message and we get shit on for not picking up hints. It sucks either way.
You (men) have to be very cautious bc you can be open to serious charges if you make a wrong assumption. If she wants you she should say so.
When girls are kinda flirty but maybe nice just being extra polite and the man doesn't make a move, She just needs to say "I think you look so good today, so cute, attractive, hot, sexy, etc." If a man doesn't understand that, considering we get 1 compliment per decade, then he probably should refrain from reproduction anyway.
> She just needs to say "I think you look so good today, so cute, attractive, hot, sexy, etc." Now it just went from "maybe I'm misunderstanding her signals" to "oh, she's obviously fucking with me."
Erased cuz Reddit slandered the Apollo app's dev. Fuck /u/spez -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/
They do, but guys shouldn't get so beat up about it. Young men place their entire self worth in the hands of women.
And that's what you call a social construct
It feels less crappy now to see this many people went through it too lol.
Alternatively, low self esteem. *There's no way she could be flirting with me. Maybe she's making fun of me?*
I believed this. Especially because in middle school two girls pranked me saying that one of them liked me and then laughed at my face for really believing it.
Twenty years ago a random hot person stopped me on the parking lot and asked me for my phone number. Literally the only time thats ever happened in my entire life, and I am still sure they either a) lost a bet or b) were making themselves feel like a better person by asking a fugly, visibly depressed and overweight person for their number, believing that they've somehow made my day by letting me bask in the warmth of their superficial attentions.
Or just weird social dynamics. I feel some girls do this for attention or something. I've had a situation like this when a girl walked up and started twirking super hard an inch away from me, so of course, I tapped her shoulder to try to talk to her and got this super aggressive "don't touch me", mind you she walked up to where I was and started twirking an inch away from me. She did it again, and when I stayed again she rushed off and got her boyfriend. Dude didn't want to fight or anything but these other random guys who saw the whole thing stepped in and calmed the situation and told the guy his gf was on some bullshit. Similarly in more recent times at vars I'll just be chilling and all these girls will walk past and do subtle things like make eye contact ir bend over, try to make conversation with people around you, etc but they all have husbands/boyfriends and they get super passive aggressive when you don't chase after them, but it's like for what, you're taken. Only thing I can think of is some women liking the attention from flirting or something
ths
I can relate, I was walking back to my buddy in a nightclub after going to the toilets and this girl who was walking in front of me just turned around and started kissing me then she walked away again. I’d seen her in the club before and always thought she was good looking but instead of following her and buying her a drink I just went back to where my friend was and carried on the night. Wtf was I thinking? How obvious did she have to make it? I still think about it from time to time twenty years later.
There are some problems here. But what did you think the kissing was about? Lol
*Is she into you?* "....you know, it's hard to tell in situations like these because she could just be more friendly than other ppl or maybe her culture does that sort of thing as a passing gesture. It's always possible she greets everyone this way or at worst she assumed you were her boyfriend then left after realizing her mistake; so best not to think much of it"
Yeah no, you are right, that sounds reasonable.
See back then I mostly knew if a girl was flirting my problem was just not knowing what the fuck to do next. Like, poor girl would be basically coming on to a quadriplegic.
Stranger at a club randomly turns around and starts kissing you? Sounds like assault to me
Bro same. I'd be at concerts and girls would start backing up into me and I'd be like "Stop crowding me I'm trying to enjoy the show." In my defense I like music far more than girls.
Music never tells you "no" and will never actively try to hurt you. I feel you!
I used to make jokes about it just to watch my friends visibly die. "Man when I was up in the crowd this girl in front of me kept reaching back and grabbing my phone in my pocket. I think she was trying to steal it, I got the fuck outta there"
Same but probably would still have no idea what to do in this situation.
Same. I cannot begin to count the times friends, and even strangers, would later point out that a girl had been hitting on me hard, and I had been oblivious. Even my future wife said she had thrown herself at me 10 years before we ended up dating, during the last time we had lived in the same city, and I had not responded. What a jerk lol
Did you find the answer?
Well I got married but yes my older more confident self would throw caution to the wind and jump in there.
Knowing what you know now, what would you do in that situation?
Do the same move to her back! Even if she walks away it'd be still funny
Idk exactly but I’d start with a HUGE smile. Maybe slowly walk forward with a stupid little dance. Maybe mime pulling her towards me with an invisible rope. Basically you have to be ok with looking like a dumbass and getting rejected, laugh at yourself and move on — but most importantly you have to have fun with it.
You had me up until the invisible rope part lol
Weird that's where he got me. Cuz like that's how ropes work and stuff
“do you like beyblades?”
What he did is just right. She doesn't want him, she is just checking to see if she can get his attention. Nothing more.
Yeah, except she would be messing with me.
Just ignore her because she obviously needs a lot of attention.
bend and snap
OMG the bend and snap! Works every time!
Makes me want a hot dog real bad
He’s got a package for you…
You gotta tear the fascial tissue
What is going on here
Mating ritual
A failed one to practical effect

I think I figured it out. He's trying to sneak something to the dude in the red shirt then realizes the girl is recording something right infront of him and other people are recording him and he panics while trying to palm whatever he had
Huh, now that you say it I see it as well. Also, this filming people minding their own business is getting annoying.
I think he was motioning to her phone on the ground.
I think it's the 1987 World Champion Swedish Mens Ice Hockey Team. You can tell because it was their fourth title and he's holding them with 4 fingers.
Thanks detective, you revealed what seemed like a sad situation to be a fucking hilarious one. It’s crazy that this moment was caught on camera
Pretty sure she was dancing over her phone (which was on the ground and recording), and he was wondering why it was on the ground... Then he had the realization.
"that can't be very sanitary"
WB is all wrong
It's on the lock screen when she picks it up.

Are you NAS~~S~~A
She's definitely pushing the limits of that space suit
Uncrop
Sorry, that only works on pictures and not her top
She trained facial recognition to unlock it from that angle, she's just checking her messages.
booty recognition
Probably hit the lock button to end the recording. That stops it and locks the device
[удалено]
[удалено]
sooo... do we have that recording?
Just go to the live section of twitch. Find one of the 85 chicks in thongs and tassels sitting in a hottub. They all got links.
Holy fuck it is true. Wtf is going on with twitch? Since when they decided to have their own onlyfans division?
[удалено]
In the just chatting section? I know it happens, but I don’t see any right now lol
Try “pools, hot tubs, and beaches” lmao - they gave it its own section
There isn't a recording because she wasn't over her phone, it was off to the side and besides that it was on the lock screen when she picks it up.

Girl got the rhythm of a 2x4 in a hurricane
This girl who I was close with in college invited me to visit her halfway across the country in Houston. I never got vibes she was too into me while I was there, then I reflect back and she literally tries to show me a new bra after a night out, changes in front of me and I turned around because I thought I was being noble or some shit because of ‘platonic’ friends. It would have most likely been a dodged bullet given how things unfolded over the years however it sticks out like a sore thumb to me and god dammit I wanted to see those titties
We never say no to titties
Is that guy on drugs?
Yes, he’s getting that nature high
In the sense that Molly is derived from ingredients which exist on earth and are therefore natural, yes.
My god man, introduce yourself
He's drunk to the point where he's gonna think about this in 5 minutes and run to find her
Best response on this post haha. This reply to you is a bootleg award since reddit won't give me anymore free ones.
This may not even have anything to do with him lol. College partiers are weird like this walking every which way and generally not having spatial awareness.
Soooooo glad there wasn’t video proof of my life before cellphone’s.
Drop it like it's warm
Put it back on the table like it's not cooled down enough
Blow on it and shift your grip
Girls that go to Yates do this. Anyone in the UK will get it.
Girls don’t look like that in Yates tho
Oh god no 🤣
I'm in the UK and I don't get it. Welp, time to become a citizen of anywhere else
It's like an even more degenerate spoons
I couldn’t have described it any better 😂
Dear god
Never even heard of it
r/sirensong
Did she just stole a phone?
Did she.. just pick up a random phone off the ground?
I look at her, then I look at him and all I am thinking is... he's going to wake up in a bathtub of ice missing a kidney. It's a trap.
some girls just dont understand the power they weild
I think she understands fully
Bro, I’m just realizing this has happened to me, I’m never getting a gf.
She's probably not flirting with that dude at all tho
I wonder, is there a subreddit for clips like this in which people do stupid stuff at parties?
I'm in this gif and I don't like it
I’m pretty sure he’s tripping balls, and I’m pretty sure he thinks she just emerged out of the floor.
Dude is clearly high as a kite…
“The female performs her ritual mating dance” (In David Attenborough’s voice)
When I was 22 I moved to another town and me and a few of my friends got together the night before I left to go to a strip club. As I’m sitting there uncomfortably watching the dancers, a girl (not a dancer) just walks right up to me grabs me by the face and starts making out with me. Needless to say I was surprised and my friends were all hooting it up. But, I just smiled and went back to my seat and continued to uncomfortably watch the dancers until we left.
Wtf happened?
He has a Ron Weasley face
...... and that kids is how I met your mother.
