It's irritating that it's so simple to see when it's not about you.
YES. I give excellent relationship advice to other people. When it's my life, it's a freaking train wreck.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yep. A guy hit on me at the grocery store and I didn't notice. My MOTHER had to point it out to me.

Part of it is, I think of me as Not Someone To Hit On in some pivotal way. So if a guy looks at me intensely, I've got something in my teeth. If a woman gives me the eye, it's cause I've got stupid hair. I don't do that to other people so sometimes I notice.

"We have trust issues." Mylar
I never know when someone's hitting on me. When I was single it always took getting to the grab-kiss-what? moment before the light bulb went off.
On the other hand, I'm great at pointing out to my clueless friends when someone's into them.

Depressingly, this is also me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Although I'm getting better at the signs, I still have the wrinkle of "Well, he liked me last week. He could be married to someone he just met by now."
Yes, it's quite insane. But that's what a lack of clarification does for me. I don't believe he is married. I just acknowledge that he might still like me, and then again he might not. He doesn't owe me anything. Stuff happens. If he's never said anything in the first place, he doesn't even have to tell me he changed his mind.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I've had to point it out to my mother when she's been hit on. It's been pretty funny. The woman can preen like nobody's business.
I'm usually very aware of it when someone is hitting on me (as opposed to just general flirting, which is a way of life for me). It's the sussing out if there's a deeper interest that I can't seem to do.

Oh, no, I'm sorry. Thinking you're Neuter Girl, not so FG.
