Hint all you want, the decent among us will still be terrified of looking creepy. Just tell us!
What most women don't get is that men like assertive women.
Some men don't. Just like some women don't like assertive men.
People generally, like other assertive people who are clear about what they want. I don't have any issue with a woman giving me a clear rejection. But I really hate the fake 'rejections' they give me most of the time that leave the door open or the bullshit double-standard where they reject me and then expect me to 'try harder' to win them over because 'men need to chase me'. or whatever horse pucky they believe.
The bear thing scared a lot of decent guys off.
