I've always actually wondered about this approach. How do most girls perceive it? I mean, to me, it seems like it's an obvious and blatant attempt to find out if they're available and a way to make your intentions/desires about possibly dating them very clear. Doesn't that seem pretty direct? Or are most people oblivious to that kind of thing, and I just overanalayze stuff?
