&gt; _visibly_ uncomfortable &#x2F; trying to be alone &#x2F; not interested or worse, when they keep flirting even after hearing a solid no.<p>I think this tends to be compounded by 2 things:<p>1) A lot of guys, especially engineer-types, just don&#x27;t get the signals, even if they are obvious.<p>2) A lot of women still play &quot;hard to get&quot; and a lot of guys like that. It&#x27;s a hard game for some people to play.<p>I absolutely agree with you though
