Been practicing my charm lately.
I recently found out HOW good I am at it.
The issue is to keep it from giving sexual vibes. I want to be likable and persuasive. BUT not to the point people think I am sexually interested.
The person needs to question how I feel enough to not take it there but enjoy being around me.
I failed at 1 but very successful excused the other.
The W was the lady who did my nails. I actually barely spoke to her but what I did say hit home. She kept staring at me and before I left she said "You are so nice." with big dough eyes.
Asian people NEVER give it up like that. So I was super proud of myself for being able to win someone over with very little verbal communication. Her being a woman took the sexual element out of it too. Less is more. Not giving the person too much attention is going to be a good strategy. Keeps them wanting more but keeps my level of preceived interest down significantly.
On the second one, I accidentally broke a rule. I KNEW I fukked up immediately.
I tripped and accidentally touched this dude's ashy knee.
Never initiate a touch unless you are interested ESPECIALLY in places people don't usually touch.
I made a joke, tripped, cause myself on his knee and regretted it immediately. Barely touched him but the damage was done. He's been hovering around me like a fly ever since.
I'll just make it known that I am interested in someone else outside of work and that should HOPEFULLY fix it. Outside of that I'll just make myself unavailable.
It's a very powerful tool. It's important not to abuse it. I am still trying to find the sweet spot.
