Rule #3: Hinting = mind reading

This is a rule/tip for you girls.
Most guys are not tuned to the same frequency as females, which adds flavours but also means things like hinting just don't work the way we hope they will. Sure you can hint and suggest, but to men that's about the same as "mind reading." When it comes to men, you need to be blunter than a baseball bat.

If that means planning all of your dates, then that means planning all of your dates.
