I can always tell when someone wants to get in my pants (danger signals I developed as a young girl), but I can never tell when someone genuinely likes me.
I'm just going to give you a little hint here, men can both want to get in your pants in genuinely like you at the same time. It's not an either or thing. I'm pretty sure if a man genuinely likes you he also probably at some point wants to have sex with you. And yeah there's going to be those guys that just want to have sex with you just have sex with you. That's the part you probably have to differentiate.
Well, yeah. There's a difference between wanting to hit it and quit it and having a sexual desire that comes with genuinely liking someone. The former views me as a piece of meat, and that's easy to clock. I should have been more clear, but I thought sexual desire being a spectrum was implied.
Sleazebags are easy to spot, everyone else is just a normal person who may be interested in you as a person and that interest can grow or wane depending on successive interactions.
