View Full Version : I don't want her

There's one girl that wants me. She poked me on facebook about 15 times in just few days, but I don't want her and I also don't want to break her heart by telling that to her. How can I reject her on most painless way? What would you do in my place?

Without telling her outright there are a few things you can do.

DON'T poke her back. If you do she will take this a sign that you are willing to engage her in communication.

If she texts you, don't answer. If she has brains she'll realise you are not interested. If she texts and phones even more, ignore it. As soon as you phone back or text her, even if it is to tell her to get lost, you are giving her attention and a part of your time.

Don't get nasty or give her any reason to misinterpret you. She might go from liking you to hating you. Either one of the two is a strong emotion. You don't want her to have ANY feelings towards you. You want this thing to shrivel up and die a death on its own, not spur it on into a storm. I don't know how psycho she could get but if you upset her she might go out of her way to make your life hell and you don't want that either.

If you see her, be polite but don't say more than is necessary. If you pay her attention, she'll see it that you are interested.

If you do have to talk to her, talk about superficial things. Like the weather or something boring. Don't tell her about your homework or that you like or dislike something as this opens up a channel of communication between you. If you stand there and say nothing to her, she might get the message after a while. Don't ever talk anything about yourself, like you've been struggling with homework because she might just offer to come over and help you.

If you absolutely have to speak, talk to her about cars, boats, fishing trips (unless she likes fishing). Speak about anything you know she is not interested in. You want her to realise (on her own and without you directly telling her) that you have NOTHING in common. If you know she likes the same band as you, DON'T mention it or talk about it. It opens up a channel for communication. Shut those channels down!

Her crush might not disappear immediately, but after a while she'll realise that you're boring and/or stupid and decide on her own that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to like you after all. That way you get what you want (to be rid of her) AND the added bonus is that she thinks she came to this conclusion herself.

Voila! NO feelings hurt and she will carry on with life, happy in the thought that maybe it was a good thing she didn't hook up with you after all.

Note: Don't expect this to work overnight. You have to constantly reinforce that you are different. Don't get tempted to answer texts or poke back. That will just set you back a step. Communication MUST be kept to a minimum.

If you tell her you don't want to talk to her, she will do a bursting into tears or ask you to explain yourself etc etc. You then find yourself in a sticky situation which you need to find your way out of. Excellent advice for sticky situations: DON'T get into them!

If at some stage she does the tears and needs emotional support from you (another one women use), just tell her that you have stuff to do and cannot stay. Suggest to her to phone her mom or speak to her sister if she has a problem. You want her to know that you are inept at dealing with these situations and not interested either. If I want emotional support from someone who isn't giving it to me, I'll go look for it elsewhere. This is what you want her to do.

I hope I made some sense.

Send her a private message. You could post it on her wall but that would be cruel.

Honestly it's more cruel and wrong if you ignore her. Express your feelings to her and end the relationship properly with grace.

Kaz covered the appropriate course of action rather well. I am in full agreement with her approach!

Kaz is right in that ANY attention you pay to this girl will be seen by her as a signal that you like her back. This is because she is hair-triggered to WANT to see encouraging behaviors from you.

Ignoring her or lying and saying you have a GF already is your best way out.

But that's such an underhanded approach, it's so anti-confrontation and disrespectful...

It's basically assuming that you think this person is insanely obsessed with you (this is narcissistic) and isn't mentally stable enough to recognize your rejection (this is condescending).

I disagree.

It is the gentlest approach, and least confrontational, IMO

Why have a confrontation when it can be done without confrontation? Often, I have learnt in my life, you can achieve what you want without bulldozing over someone else and keeping their own dignity in tact.

Confronting this girl is just going to put her on the spot and make her feel bad. She should not be made to feel bad for liking someone. Her intentions are good, although unwelcome, and she can be dealt with effectively without a fight and without her losing face.

In a confrontation she is just going to feel worse and ashamed. She has nothing to feel ashamed about.

If she was negative and the intentions are bad, then confrontation might not be a bad idea.

Choose your wars wisely.

Kazimiera
10-29-2012, 07:39 AM
Also, he might be wrong if he thinks she likes him in THAT way. There is always that chance too. With a confrontation HE will end up looking like an idiot and lose face.

This method protects both him and her and keeps dignities intact.

If she tells him outright about her feelings then he can openly reject.

But if things are unspoken at the moment, then why bring into the light what can be left in the dark?

Yes, but it's not a debate or disagreement here. This is a misunderstanding on her end. Noone normal wants to love someone who doesn't love them.

It is respectful and shows that you value her by sitting her down and explaining to her kindly that you are not interested and if she's normal, she will take it...and you can walk away feeling satisfied that you communicated your truth to her.

Yeah I agree on this. Is she is subtle and ambiguous about the attraction, then it deserves no explanation or rejection.

Of course not!

If she approaches him and asks him out, then he must explain to her nicely, like you said.

But if it hasn't reached that point yet where she has mentioned that she likes him and it is only a suspicion on his part, then my approach should be taken. To AVOID it coming to the point where she tells him and he rejects her.

To nip it in the bud before it becomes something bigger.

Kazimiera

If she has come out with her feelings and he takes the initial approach by ignoring her and avoiding her, then HE is the idiot. He must talk to her honestly and truthfully. And even telling her he has a girlfriend when it is not the case and she finds out, she will be even more hurt. She'll think he didn't have the balls to tell her direct and think he is a coward.

Different situations call for different approaches.

I was basing my first answer on that he said she'd poked him 15 times and not done anything else.

If he said that she had already told him her feelings, then your approach is the best Slavic Blood.

I wish I had that problems these days.

I had a similar problem in high school though. The girl was stalking me (somehow she got my phone number and she was waiting for me at my classes.) I just had to tell her I was in a long distance relationship with another girl.

I think ignoring someone is bad though. You shouldn't ignore people.

Dear girls, I have a question. There are two girls that have added me on facebook and keep writting me everyday. Well, one girl stopped after I never wrote on my own initiative.
Do you think girls always want more when they do such stuff, or is it possible that they just want to be friends?

I had a girl who kept calling us good friends. She had a boyfriend. I told her I donīt have a good feeling with it. She reacted angry and asked me whether I think she would be unfaithful to her boyfriend. Before she married him she told me she always had feelings for me! She married him when I said I donīt think there should be anything between us (well, I shared the feelings to some degree, but I knew it was wrong and fought them).
After that experience I really doubt a girlīs "friendship". What do you girls think? If a girl always tries to be around a guy, is there always more behind it?
I also remember I wise man saying: "If a girl wants to be your friend and is still around you, she is doing that because sheīs hoping for you to develop feelings for her." True?

Ignoring people is cruel indirect and passive-aggressive.

Just inform her gently, politely, and privately (through a pm) that you are not interested in dating, that you're sure she's a wonderful person whom another man would love to meet, and you're sorry, but she's just not for you.

Make it clear that you are definitely not interested without making her feel as if no one would want her.

Using people for sex is a form of leading someone on, to put it mildly.

Without telling her outright there are a few things you can do.

DON'T poke her back. If you do she will take this a sign that you are willing to engage her in communication.

If she texts you, don't answer. If she has brains she'll realise you are not interested. If she texts and phones even more, ignore it. As soon as you phone back or text her, even if it is to tell her to get lost, you are giving her attention and a part of your time.

Don't get nasty or give her any reason to misinterpret you. She might go from liking you to hating you. Either one of the two is a strong emotion. You don't want her to have ANY feelings towards you. You want this thing to shrivel up and die a death on its own, not spur it on into a storm. I don't know how psycho she could get but if you upset her she might go out of her way to make your life hell and you don't want that either.

If you see her, be polite but don't say more than is necessary. If you pay her attention, she'll see it that you are interested.

If you do have to talk to her, talk about superficial things. Like the weather or something boring. Don't tell her about your homework or that you like or dislike something as this opens up a channel of communication between you. If you stand there and say nothing to her, she might get the message after a while. Don't ever talk anything about yourself, like you've been struggling with homework because she might just offer to come over and help you.

If you absolutely have to speak, talk to her about cars, boats, fishing trips (unless she likes fishing). Speak about anything you know she is not interested in. You want her to realise (on her own and without you directly telling her) that you have NOTHING in common. If you know she likes the same band as you, DON'T mention it or talk about it. It opens up a channel for communication. Shut those channels down!

Her crush might not disappear immediately, but after a while she'll realise that you're boring and/or stupid and decide on her own that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to like you after all. That way you get what you want (to be rid of her) AND the added bonus is that she thinks she came to this conclusion herself.

Voila! NO feelings hurt and she will carry on with life, happy in the thought that maybe it was a good thing she didn't hook up with you after all.

Note: Don't expect this to work overnight. You have to constantly reinforce that you are different. Don't get tempted to answer texts or poke back. That will just set you back a step. Communication MUST be kept to a minimum.

If you tell her you don't want to talk to her, she will do a bursting into tears or ask you to explain yourself etc etc. You then find yourself in a sticky situation which you need to find your way out of. Excellent advice for sticky situations: DON'T get into them!

If at some stage she does the tears and needs emotional support from you (another one women use), just tell her that you have stuff to do and cannot stay. Suggest to her to phone her mom or speak to her sister if she has a problem. You want her to know that you are inept at dealing with these situations and not interested either. If I want emotional support from someone who isn't giving it to me, I'll go look for it elsewhere. This is what you want her to do.

I hope I made some sense.

Indeed! Now you know how a woman's brain functions - all the plans she devise ... tell-tale signs, as we can all see. Thanks Kazi! :P
