Straight men are rarely "just being nice". If he's going out of his way to be nice, he's interested. More than that, he's probably going to expect some reciprocal "niceness" from you.

Realistically, very few people are genuinely altruistic. Everybody wants something.


He wants a girlfriend who wants to have sex? The bastard!

Timing. Wait a few weeks. If he's chatting you up, he's interested.



We shall see. We are all getting together as a group at a restaurant next week. I'm going to see what happens

Straight men are rarely just being nice just to be nice. They are looking for any opportunity to take their penis out of their pants and stick it somewhere.

You need some help.

Not just anywhere though. It has to be warm and wet.
