Nothing you said is true across the board. There are plenty of people who won't express romantic interests regardless of how emotionally available the person they're interested in is.

I've had several women admit years later that they were interested in me and were waiting for me to make the first move.

Part of the reason why many men tend to think that simple kindness is a sign of romantic interest is because women generally don't make their interest in them obvious, so they look for any sort of clue that it might be true.

The other part is that it's fairly rare for men to receive genuine care and kindness from women they're not romantically involved with.

That's not to say that women never express obvious romantic interest in men, but it's not exactly common for women to make the first move.

Nothing is ever true across the board. Women are not a hive mind of unified thought. BUT, if your looking for a woman who would express interest in you, rather than vice versa, I stand by my statements. I'm not talking about common, I'm talking about what he "dreams of"
