女じょ性せいの脈みゃくありサインを誤ご解かいしていた、こんな経けい験けんありませんか？？ぶっちゃけ、「告こく白はくしてほしい！」という合あい図ずは十じゅう人にん十と色いろ。でも、この場ば合あいは期き待たいしていいかもです！女じょ性せいとメールする中なかで、「疲つかれた～」とか「今いまなにしてるの？」など、女じょ性せいから大たいして意い味みを持もたないメールがきたら、あなたに興きょう味みを持もってくれたという証あかしです！何なに気げない内ない容ようをわざわざ時じ間かんを割さいて質しつ問もんする。つまり、異い性せいとして感かん心しんがあるという表あらわれなのです。こうやって落おちのない話はなしや軽かるい内ない容ようのメールが来きた場ば合あい、脈みゃくありだと考かんがえてOKでしょう。
