We've probably all had these moments of missed hints, overlooked cues, complete obliviousness. These things come hand in hand with the coy games of courtship that take place when you're just starting to feel all of "it" out.
And feeling "it" out? That's certainly a universal part of the human experience and the outré affair that is adolescence.
There's always that lingering doubt of "will they or won't they" and the wont to hide one's true desires in order to save face should they not return your favor.
Amidst all of that inexorable certainty; Feeling accepted, wanted, and loved is a universal desideratum for all of us.

There's a high amount of commiseration happening here amongst all of the stories of missed chances and detached connections. The years may go by but these experiences are clearly still keeping people up at night.
