Haha, this brings back a few memories. I don't know what it is but this girl I was into would whine and pout (not always) like a little kid if I ignored her (often unintentionally). She promised to make me food if I stopped ignoring her....which I've yet to receive....man I'm hungry...smh

And years before that, I was teenager ignoring a girl I really liked because I thought she was ignoring me. Then one day we were standing next to each other and I said hi but then she said "I'm not saying hi to you because you never say hi to me!" and I'm like "I just said hi right now...seriously wtf???...screw this I'm going to 7/11 and I'm gonna get me bag of chips."

And a few months ago a female friend exploded at me and was really grumpy because she thought I was ignoring her, even though I wasn't...I was eating dinner so of course it's gonna take me a few minutes to text back...Jeez, let a man eat, I was hungry. But then again, she was going through a rough time.

Why does it work? I don't know. What was your state of mind like when this was happening? And what do you mean "if the technique is properly used"?

Of course, it was a cool feeling just to see if the ignoring kind of things do actually work because I had just read about it and never had any first-hand experience of that. So, I was obviously excited.

I guess the typical LoA answer would be that you felt positive about it, you expected a good result, you assumed it would work, no resistance, it was no big deal, just a light thing for you, so it became a good thing. In other words, it's not ignoring her that works, it's how it made you feel that works, your state of being.

You really never heard of ignoring before? As a teen, playing push and pull and ignoring each other (not responding right away) was popular advice...for both boys and girls...which led to many headaches and laughs lol...but thankfully a lot of people didn't have the self-discipline to follow that. LoA aside, I think personality plays a role too. Some girls get more interested when you ignore them, some just play the game with you, some get emotional, and some are more chilled.

I remember years ago I forgot to respond to some girl's text....I fell asleep so I didn't care lol...but usually we respond to each other pretty fast. I texted her back 12 hours later and she texted me back 12 hours after that. I texted her 1 day later and she texted back 1 day after that at the same time. I thought I was seeing a pattern. So I texted her 2 days later, and she texted back 2 days after that at the same hour. Happened again. Then I texted her 5 minutes later and she texted back 5 minutes after that. I did it again, texted a whole day later, received text a day after that at the same hour again. I knew this was a pattern and she was doing it because she was annoyed at me for ignoring her the first time, but it just made me laugh looooooooooooooool.
