    Not a major problem i suppose, but its a real hinderence...
    Im terrible at reading people, and usually end up being pessimistic and ruining things for myself. I can never tell when a guy likes me. It rarely ever happens that ill notice that a guy likes me, and the only times i do notice its always a guy im not interested in in that way.
    I always get myself in situations like so:
    -A guy likes me
    -I like him but dont cop that the feeling is mutual
    -He tries to make "moves" on me
    -Im completely ignorant to it and treat him like a friend
    -He gets that im treating him as just a mate and figures im not interested
    -I find out the next day from everyone i was with that he was interested
    -Cue feeling like an idiot

    Im just hopeless when it comes to reading people and always assume that guys i like arent interested

    First, stop assuming that! Assume instead that you are a reasonably attractive woman, and that you can allow yourself to be attractive and to express your sensual side. Allow yourself to flirt. Look at the guy you fancy sideways I mean out of the corner of your eye, smile, look away...that kind of thing. I'm a crappy flirt myself, so maybe some of the other ladies here or in the Ladies Lounge have better advice. But this works for me.

    way to put words in the OPs mouth ! ;) heh... nah

    exactly... dont go for a guy that you think is interested in you... then you get interested in him after you find out... go for a guy that you are interested in in the first place ?
