How to avoid people avoiding you?

Oh is there something called "strategies" for dealing with people? How come I missed the 101 on it?

I do the same. But I am talking about those who're under the illusion that I may want to have anything to do with them.

thats is exactly what I do. Nothing hurts them more than this treatment.

Now take this response for example , ask anybody, it seems like a very snotty response to my very honest and innocent post. :crying:

Now thats what I am talking about!!! (but can’t accomplish somehow)

I want to walk by with such cruel disregard for them that I can literally hear a muffled ouch from them! :dhimpak:

I have got a nastly cold, and hence a “snotty” response! :wink:

Mirch bhai, Cantankerous merely practicing strategies 103. :hehe: just mark it.

No she has cold , hence a clogged nose full of snot. Honest, she told me so above . :hehe:

oh that was from reasoning 101. A new course element, recently added.

If someone is tripping over themselves to avoid me, why would I pretend to ignore the entertainment - first, I’ll enjoy the scene then stare with joy hoping to make eye contact and once the eye contact is established, smile BIG and look away with satisfaction :chai:

Oooh, thats the pure evil I was seeking! Thanks. Guaranteed results?

Re: How to avoid people avoiding you?

Yup. Best way to pop someone's bubble, look at them. But don't speak to them.

Yes, make them feel as awkward as possible.

Looking at them with goggly eyes will be awkward enough?

Cantankerous, I've been in the same situation. And it's especially annoying when a member of the opposite sex assumes that you're JUST DYING (not!) to talk to them.

I agree with PSquared. You just beat them at their own game. Why should you go out of your way to talk to someone who won't even look at you. Ignore them back, ignore em harder. Don't ask how they're doing, don't say good bye, don't say hello. Just walk by them as if they don't exist.......as if they are as invisible as AIR. Once they get the message that you don't have the DESPERATE DESIRE to talk to them..........they might approach you and start being nice/talking to you. I say, be polite and cold to them. Let them know that you are not into playing games. And you don't care to deal with people who ONLY talk to when it SUITS THEIR MOOD! And if that's the case, they can their self-centered self-righteous company elsewhere!

bah amatuer...

see thats what avoiders get off on..look heh, we are not giving her any attention so she is just pretending to be aloof etc etc or look she is trying to avoid us now..etc

I did teh exact opposite, acted oblivious of the treatment, superficial and all..

like hey guys...sorry cant talk..gotta run...been too busy but when I get a chance I will try and catch up, take care now..

make em feel unimportant and like low on your priority list and that their supposed avoidance not only has no impact but means nothing to you, or for that matter anything else that they do or dont do is of no consequence..muhahahah

being made to feel inconsequential is much worse than feeling disliked ...

Re: How to avoid people avoiding you?

^ This is true too.

Ive done it a couple of times but without really thinking about it in that way.

Re: How to avoid people avoiding you?

Re: How to avoid people avoiding you?

i really dislike it whn ppl assume tht i'm dying to talk to them or going after em, i just hate it, at once i used to think tht i should just go n tell them face to face tht DUDE, i dont care abt wht u think abt me, but den i guess its useless, so normally if i get to see ppl who have got huge attitude prob , i just ignore them completly, like they dunt even exist for me! ... like if i know they r coming i would just pretend i did not see thm or if just in case i did , i would just have a glance n look away quickly, ... n try my best not to do direct eye to eye contact.
