Cool moves

By Anonymous - 06/07/2009 22:36 - United States

Today, I was in my car and a cute guy pulled up next to me. He looked at me and smiled, but in order to be cool, I pretended not to notice. I also pretended that I was listening to music and was completely absorbed in it, singing passionately. I wasn't even listening to music and my window was down. FML

"but in order to be cool, " Automatic YDI. Stop trying to be "cool". Try being friendly and just be yourself. Much better than being cool. If you think he's cute just smile back.

An open letter to anyone who does anything remotely like this: You clearly had nothing to gain by "trying to be cool" in this situation. He was not going to pull over and make out with you. He may not even have been interested in you. Some people are just happy like that. They smile at people because it makes other people feel good. Or maybe he WAS flirting, but again, he was not going to pull over or follow you home (that would make him a stalker anyway). He was in his car, so he probably had places to go that did not involve you.

Additionally: Think what would happen if you smiled at someone and they just ignored you despite the fact that they CLEARLY saw you smile at them. You would probably say to yourself, "God, what a total bitch." This is not exclusive to the ******-bearing gender, I assure you.

Just a quick PSA: There is no ******-bearing gender, though there is a ******-bearing sex. That is all.

Oops. I actually did know that. My apologies.

Explain? Edit: Just looked up the difference. Gender = psychological/societal. Sex = physiological. And now I know...and knowing is half the battle.

What the hell is this? FYI playing hard to get doesn't work with people you will never see again. Next time, act like a decent human being, smile back, and be on your way.

i seriously dont get why girls play hard to get so many times. i mean seriously dont ******* flatter yourself because you think you're hot shit. I find this extremely annoying in women and then they complain that they don't have a boyfriend.

How does ignoring him help? He'll just think you're not interested.

I second that. Why on Earth would you ignore him instead of smiling back? Unless you have ugly teeth, that is.

I just realized that he probably wasn't even smiling at you, he was probably trying not to laugh at some other stupid thing you were doing.

I hope you learnt your lesson about pretending!

You just got your ego hyper-inflated because an attractive guy gave you a tiny bit of attention. Next time don't be such a bitch, though hopefully no good-looking guys find themselves wasting their smiles on you. Hint: A girl who gives a charming return smile is a lot more attractive than one who acts like she has a carrot stuck up her ass

how is ignoring someone "cool" ? are you 16 or something ? cause you gotta learn some stuff : impolite is NOT cool, and just a smile would have done the job, even if you didn't want to talk to him.
