    Honestly, the whole 'he should just know' thing makes my head spin. I've been there too, where I thought a guy was being sweet by not giving up, but looking back it was just confusing. If someone's not clear, I'd rather just move on than try to decode hints.

    I think the biggest thing I've learned is that just because a guy texts you every day and takes you out, it doesn't mean he's thinking long-term. I've had that happen—where it felt like we were dating, but then he got bored and vanished. It's brutal, but you have to watch what they do, not what they say. And honestly, I've seen friends do the same thing to guys, so it's not just one side. You just have to be honest with yourself about what you're getting out of it.

    From a bloke's perspective, if you say no and I stop, it's not me playing hard to get—it's me respecting what you said. But then some women complain we don't try harder, and it's a proper catch-22. I think the key is being clear about what you actually want, because we're not mind readers.
