I think the lack of female contact has created such a void that now when I starting to reintergrate with the opposite sex I begin to think any girl that spends more than 5 minutes talking to me actually likes me. Not the fact that I with her friend who happens to be my friend, not the fact that I know more about a subject than she does. Nope, I just take any positive feedback from her and over amplify it. I guess it will go away with time.
