14 Guys Talk About Times They Totally Failed To Make Moves On Women

by Eitan Levine

These physically hurt.

Story time! A couple of years ago, I was invited over to hang out in the apartment of a cute girl whom I met during a summer class. It was in the middle of finals week, so I was working on about four nights of getting three hours of sleep, meaning I had zero ability to pick up on any signs that may have been thrown around.

To me, this was a strictly business hang out. We were going to master the finer points of microeconomics, and that would be that.

To her, this was a sex thing.

The issue was I didn't pick up on that until about two weeks after. I showed up. I drank coffee. We studied. Then, I left.

Why am I telling you that story? Because as much as it hurts and is super awkward, it is NOWHERE near as terrible as some of these other stories of missed chances some forthcoming people on Reddit shared.
