Today was going to be a day that I just spend with my mother since I only see her several times a year because I go to college far away. She decided to go to the mall to pick something up. In the mean time I was thought that I might as well buy new shoes since mine falling apart. At the shoe store a girl working there helped me out. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary from what women usually tell me but apparently my mother did. From her perspective, the girl was so into me that she was radiating IOI's but I didn't notice at all. Other than a few personal questions I thought she was just being nice. What the hell is going on? I'm not one to take advice from my mom on other women but she said something about the way she made eye contact with me and how she was desperate to continue the conversation with me. Why am I oblivious to this stuff?

You just don't know dude. No reason to beat yourself up about it.

As funny as this sounds... Your mom was right. You can tell if a girl is really into you by her eyes. You'll figure it out. Just keep going out and talking to girls and you will eventually understand "the look."

Don't let your mom down

parents do this all the time because they think their kids are so special.

It is a salesman's job to be nice. so I agree with you, she was just being nice.

No way for us to know for sure, since we weren't there to see how girl was interacting with OP.

You're right, this happens a lot with parents, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's always true.

OP: always assume interest in a potential lay/attractive woman. Try to always have a sexual mindset around them and go for it. I like 60yoc's simple tool for getting you excited enough to hit on a woman whose interest level you're not sure about: Imagine her face down on your dick, blowing you. Should get you in the right mindset pretty fast if you genuinely have interest in her.

Just be prepared for rejection. Get used to being in a sexual state of mind around every potential mate though, and your success rate will improve. Everyone fails. Embrace it and keep going.

little practice to IOI, you will get better brother. Mom is Right.

Just watch the interaction within people and after a while you'll see IOI's and non. It helps!

My general rule is, if she's asking me questions about myself, she wants to keep talking to me; if she wants to keep talking to me, then there must be some level of interest. I don't think she was just being nice to try and sell you shoes, you went into the shoe store, already wanting to buy shoes! She didn't need to 'sell' them to you.

If you are still in the area though, or same town at least, why not go back to the store and find out? You don't need any other reason than you find her attractive, nothing to lose, everything to gain.

This. Add her fuck me eyes into the equation and that's your cue for the isolation bounce and then isolation to your apartment.

Not sure what a fuck-me-eyes from a girl looks like? Watch this video then:
