You see... people who over-analyze every word, every gesture, even a "look" - they WANT it to be something else, and they have hard time to accept that the other person is not sending any secret, coded messages that have several meanings. Coded messages - that's juvenile. Most people don't play those games. They talk simple AND mean what they say.

Examples:

1. He texts: "What’s up?"
Over-analyzers think: He’s thinking about me. He obviously likes me if he went to all the trouble to text me. What a nice guy! I bet he misses me. A lot. I wonder what our kids will look like.
He means: I’m bored. Let's get together. I want to get laid.

2. He texts: "What are you doing tonight?"
Over-analyzers think: Oh, my God! He wants to take me on a date. What do I wear? Will he pay? OMG my hair looks like crap. Damn, I was supposed to go out with my friends. I’ll have to cancel. Wedges or heels?
He means: I’m just starting to think about my night. I’m going to ask multiple people what they are doing and pick the best option. Chances are, it won’t be you.

3. He texts: "K"
Over-analyzers think: WHY DOES HE HATE ME NOW? WHAT DID I DO WRONG? WTF. I’m so done. This is BS. He is an a**. Now what? Am I not funny? Is he not interested anymore? Did he meet someone else? It's over? I bet he’s cheating on me. I hate him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He means: I’m driving or in the middle of something. I want you to know I received the message you sent me and am agreeing.

Geeeez....

well, almost. really, ANYTHING that a virile man says to an semi-attractive woman is code for "so, are you dtf?" just saying it like it is....
