There’s clueless, and then there’sclueless.
I never touched her because I thought she was just complaining and needed a sympathetic ear.
It wasnt until years later that she told me that shed never felt less sexy nor more rejected."
We were comparing brands and types when he started hinting at seeing mine.
I was confused and said, ‘Why do you oughta see my guitar?
It’s nothing special.’
He then kept talking about maybe I should play him some songs.
Again, I said, ‘Why would we do that?
We are having fun here!’
After he left, I realized he wanted to go back to my place.

3.I picture them turning around like “!!!”
The realization hit me right when the door closed."
I had a room for two in the barracks, and my bunkie was out of town.
She heard I had a piano in the room and invited herself over to sing along.
It was years before I figured out what was going on."
I told him it’s really not that difficult to use and I could show him at work.
6.Sweet summer child:
“I’m a gay man with ZERO game.
Let’s just start there.
I thought he was just being super nice, and I indulged him in conversation.
Hope you get home safe!'”
Seriously, YEARS later I was thinking about that day, and it suddenly dawned on me."
Lol, completely missed that one."
Needless to say, we never studied together again."
10.Oooooopsie:
“I was acquainted with the hot guy in school; we had mutual friends.
We flirted back and forth in jest, or so I thought.
We had exchanged numbers at his insistence, but I didnt think anything of it.
One day a group of us were going to the pub so I invited him.
I also invited a guy I met while clubbing the night before.
It has been years and I still feel the shock from the realization of what he meant.”
I said I didnt like the band, but my sister did, and she might buy it.
Then he said, ‘Well, I wasnt trying to sell it.’
I then said, ‘Okay,’ and walked off.

14.Say it with me…D’OH:
“I was living in Milwaukee and working retail.
The teenagers that were working that night were starstruck, but I played it cool.
I dont remember everything we talked about, but it was nothing particularly unusual.
Then, he asked me, ‘Do you wanna go out?’
And I said, ‘Nah, its way too hot outside.’
Sorry my guy, I hope you had better luck with the next one.”
Without a second thought, I said, ‘Sorry, I cant.’
Again, without thinking, I invited her along, and she agreed to go.
Hindsight is always 20/20, but looking back, its still a bit fuzzy."
Not my finest moment."
