For example, if she asks you a question about yourself, or if you squeeze her hands and she squeezes back. Look for indicators of interest (IOIs).Use an excuse to get her away from the group, such as saying that you want to show her something. The neg reinforces your lack of interest and further injures the woman’s self-esteem. Further provoke your target with a neg, which is a backhanded compliment or vague insult-for example, offer her gum after she talks, or tell her that her hair would look better if it were up/down.Winning over the group makes you seem like the life of the party, while ignoring your target makes her more eager for your attention.
