[QUOTE="Kal, post: 42506, member: 360"] I wasted more than a few years learning this: [B]Women can like you.[/B] I spent a very long time *automatically ruling out* this possibility and searching for some other wrong explanation. How to react to this type of teasing? Be cool and chill. When girls do this as a method of exploring a possible relationship, if you lose your composure or are shy/avoid/run, you are ruled out as a possible relationship. You are a silly toy and a joke. Instead, be calm, but receptive and mildly interested. They will escalate to flirt more, because you have not broken yet. Let them. Then call them on it in a cool manner. Tease them back or a "Oh yeah? When why don't we" with a sly smile. If they ARE teasing with no interest other than bullying (do NOT assume this! Your brain and anxiety is working against you!) then there is no loss, and you did not act like a fool or a joke; because you were not insecure or frazzled. You are obsessing about what some random dude in India with a stupid name on a stupid website said 3 years ago. Do not do that. Value yourself, work with what you have. [/QUOTE]
