love2

Well there was this one girl that I worked with at the time that caught my eye. What better person could I possibly try this theory on. So I decided from that point on, I was going to act disinterested in this person. I knew she would really get that I was disinterested in her, because we were on friendly terms before. I always joked around with her and talked to her a lot. So I figured that she would really get the hint that I could care less about her, and then she would be mine.

Of course I couldn’t totally ignore her. She would think I was just being rude, or that I was angry with her. I figured my best bet would be to interact with her as much as possible and just show how disinterested I was to the things she had to say. Then she would just fall into my trap.

So I started sitting next to her at lunch, but never start off the conversation. Usually she would say happily “Hey What’s up Nicky C???!!!!” I would merely respond by saying “Hey.” Unemotionally. I could all ready see she was checking me out at this point.

The problem with acting like you don’t care is that conversations do not typical progress beyond that. But I think things started to change between us. Sometimes she tried to make small talk, which I gave as little participation as possible. Clearly frustrated, she would sometimes ask me questions about work, like I couldn’t see through her ploy, or even asked me what I did over the weekend, trying to find out if I found a girlfriend yet. Clearly things were going my way with her.

Once she even asked me if I had any big plans for a long weekend, right before a holiday. At that point, I just thought “WOW!!! My friend was right!!! This girl is basically asking me out!!!!” I figured, however, that since this tactic is working so well that I might as well continue. I merely said “I have plans, thank you.” That comment seemed to throw her off balance. At that point she had to know I wasn’t interested. I thought it was only a matter of time until she was mine.

Well, two months passed, and she talked to me a lot less frequently. So I got a friend to ask her “Hey, how about that Nicky C, what a great guy, right????” I was a little disheartened by her answer. I was expecting her to say “Oh God!!! I am in love with him!!!” but all she said was that I have been quite lately and that it appears that I have been in a bad mood lately. Did my friends plan failed????

Then I realized that she was probably playing the same game!!! She was pretending she was not interested in me in order to try to get affection out of me. So my next move had to be really good. After another week or so of ignore her, I decided to reengage her, with the hope of asking her out really soon. When I started talking to her again, I found out that she all ready had a boyfriend for over a month.

So did my friend’s plan work. I think it worked very well. I just waited to long to make my move. Clearly I will use this method in the future. So ladies, if I start to act disinterested in what you have to say, you know what that means!!!!!!
