The bolded part is so true. Just speaking for myself personally, I like tons of things on Facebook by different women on my page, including their face pictures. Means absolutely nothing, other than it's a nice picture, or a funny quote or just something I like.
Yeah it is frustrating, and I have been through it, but that's life, and sometimes it takes a while to find the person that is meant for you.
Right, and I completely understand that, but would you like posts and photos of a female who you knew was into you but you weren't into her? Maybe you still would but I know that I don't like to string people a long and if a guy has expressed interest in me, I wouldn't like his stuff on FB.
But other than that, I like a BUNCH of stuff my guy friend's post.

It depends on the situation, but if I knew a woman liked me, and I didn't like her, and I felt we couldn't be associates, then more than likely I would not even be friends with on Social Media.

Gotcha. Yea, I'm just saying from my personal experience, I wouldn't even give someone the question that I was into them by liking their stuff.
For example, I hooked up with a guy (I don't sleep around - don't get the wrong impression) and I thought he was REALLY nice, but I didn't want to date him. I wanted to "like" his stuff on FB when he posted things about his daughter making the honor roll, etc, because I think that is awesome, but I didn't want to make him think me liking his posts was me being into him.

If that makes sense...
It makes sense, and I see where you are coming from, but I compare that to women not saying hi to men they may have dated, because they don't want men to get the impression they liked them, when they really don't, when really all you want to do is be polite and say hello. All you are doing is stating you like something, nothing more, nothing less. It's a shame people have to make a bigger issue out of things than they really are. In most cases there really isn't more to the story, but unfortunately people do take people's simple kindness as a sign that it means something more.
I will admit I was a little uncomfortable and shy, since I was surrounded by a bunch of people he knew. It wasn't exactly an ideal place to first meet someone. But he walked right up to me in front of everyone, put his arm around me and introduced himself.
This is why aggression works. You weren't entirely comfortable with someone being so familiar with you when you've just met him. However it's clear throughout the date, you allowed it to happen, the descriptions about holding hands all night. In order to justify in your mind why you allowed something uncomfortable to continue, you had to rationalize you must like this guy to some degree. It's a way to resolve cognitive dissonance. Either you weren't interested and didn't allow him to be so touchy feely or you did allow him because you were interested. In essence, his aggressive behavior meant you skipped the debate about whether you like him or not and right to questioning why he isn't interested in you.

I think you misunderstood why I said I felt uncomfortable and shy. It wasn't because of his behavior towards me. I was saying that the first time I met him, I was in an environment with most of the people being his friends. Its hard to meet someone for the first time in that kind of environment.
Putting his arm around you right away, and again later in the evening is kind of too much too soon, for a stranger. My impression was that he was making a big show of it in front of his friends (for some reason), but he wasn't serious. It's unusual to get that cozy with someone one has only met for the first time.
Dating sucks, I agree. I'd much rather chill out in an inexpensive way than be judged for how deep my wallet is. My idea of a date is munching a $2 hoagie on back of a pickup and chatting about daily life. YEEHAW .

I love that! Or sitting on the back porch during the summer with a class of wine and talking
