You know, I am WYSIWYG, on the concrete side most of the times. If NOP said to invite BB to a dance and go if she refused, knowing NOP, I would take it at face value. Do step "A" then step "B" I know Iam too readable most times to most people that if I did talk about going to a dance w or w/o Bb I would appear to be going to flirt or maybe do more.
Jenny's cow, monkey is more theoretical/implied. You have to read into her models to fit your situation. I like them though.
About implied meaning, look at all the comotion that came out of me teasing LFL about pulling her hair in some exchanges where I said "If I would ever consider being her partner (theory only) I would pull her hair, if that is what she wanted.
I seem to have a long standing problem, that if i imply or tease about somethings, I get taken seriously and it causes bigger problems.
I also know being tooo readable lets the OP have more controll than I think is good for the both of us. They can read me and I am mostly guessing. I am getting better at reading the situations.
