So i’ve read a lot of persuasion books and learned how to make someone like me really fast.
To “practice” i started applying them on people in my small town (i live in a really small town), and it works.
But the problem is… they don’t stop.
Like, i’ll use the tactics one day and the next day they’re outside my house calling me, or waiting on the road in groups. it’s not like they don’t have other friends, they do. but for some reason they keep sticking to me.
My issue is i don’t like chatting every day. I have my things to do, and when people keep showing up i just hate it.
Then when i ignore them, it actually pushes me farther away from them than i was before. like they take it personally, and then it feels awkward.
What do you do now?

Book recommendations?
Why is that, whichever group I post this problem to, people just ask for books instead of having any solutions?
So, just “stop” what you’re doing.
Obviously you know how to get people interested. Stop practicing, stop engaging with them.
