Well, from my experience, ever since I got any sort of firm grasp on what I
am supposed to do with women, I've been involved in one case where somebody
didn't notice that someone was interested in them.  And it was the woman who
didn't notice.  So there!  :-)

Of course it's possible that I've been too friggin' dense to notice legions
of interested women around me :-)

Shoot, I don't know.  Some people don't notice some things, and it's not
restricted to any gender.  All I can say is that everyone ought to be ready
to be unmistakably direct in case somebody doesn't notice their interest.
Better that than to let something potentially wonderful fizzle away.
