A college student goes to this cafeteria for lunch she usually eats at. She stands in line waiting to pay for her meal, as she approaches the guy cashier who works there and is generally very nice to her. She thanks him for cashing out her order and turns to leave.
Behind her she hears him say, “You look nice today, you don’t wear dresses very often, do you?”
Out of curiosity, the girl looks back to see who he had been talking to, no one else in line was wearing a dress so she is confused but doesn't dwell it.
About ten minutes later she walks to the bathroom and checks herself in the mirror, noticing that she had been the one wearing a dress. It then dawns upon her that the cashier had been talking complimenting her.
Embarrassed and guilty that she had entirely dismissed his comment earlier, she tries to hide herself the best she could as she passes him out the cafeteria.
Later the same week, while she orders coffee at Starbucks, one of the employees strikes up a conversation with her. They get along fine since she thinks he's just trying to be friendly. To her surprise, he ends up suggesting that they go out for dinner some time.
She is frozen, frankly stunned.
He’s interested in me? What do I say, what do I do?
Knowing she cannot act like a normal human being in these situations she manages to whisper literally the awkwardest “sure”, grabs her drink, gets up and heads out the door, soon enough realizing she had forgotten to hand him her number and proceeds to slam her head head against her car door.
Who could be this ridiculous?
Me.
Me this past week.
Me pretty much every day.
99% of the time I’m oblivious to flirting. I just don’t get the hint.
I thought I’d shed some light on the other side of the story when you try to talk to a girl. I cannot speak for all women but I am certainly not the only one who feels this way. Next time you want to talk to a someone you know, or a someone you meet — if she seemingly isn’t interested, it may be because she really isn’t interested. But believe me, there’s also a good chance she’s a) a fucking idiot like me or b) awkward as fuck like me. So as much as you might be hitting yourself for trying to talk to a girl, she might be doing the same.
Let me apologize ahead of time before I do anything stupid again.

I feel you. My condolences. I wish you lose this awkwardness soon. Anyways.. coffee next week? :P
You sound just like me, I don't really pick up on flirting at all. Or rather I dismiss it thinking "there's no way anyone would flirt with me."
