As a teenage boy in middle or high school, what confused you the most about teenage girls?

Was good friends with a girl through most of high school. Text book example of being on the hook. She always wanted to hang out, she’d grab my butt, sit on my lap, hug me and put her head on my chest and stay like that for a long time, she’d get me crazy thoughtful gifts (like going out of town to have a glass blower make a glass statuette of my 1960’s Les Paul), she’d come spend the night in my room (in my bed), and sleep in her underwear next to me. I tried to kiss her once, denied. Couple times I asked her if she wanted to be an actual couple and she immediately declined and started dating a random guy immediately. Talk about mixed signals.
