Why would a girl pretend not to be interested in you?

[Doflamingo1]

Everyone is asking you “How do you know” and not answering your question.

I’ve been in a similar position so I’ll answer you instead of asking you questions.

- Their friends might not like you, and she has to hide the fact that she is attracted to you

-She is showing you that she is attracted to you but, you can’t see it.(body language)

-playing hard to get

- She doesn’t recognise her own feelings for you. Her words say something else but, her actions speak differently.

-she’s shy

- You are delusional

[Browneye57]

To test your resolve, prove your validity, validate her.
Yeah, it's fake, and it sucks, and most guys mistake it for real lack of interest. Playing games is a dealbreaker - it's her M-O, she'll do it with everything. FAIL

[MareBear93]

I have done this before. The reason I have done this is because when I showed interest, he didn't. It almost felt like begging, so I stopped. When I did that he started showing interest. It was like a tug of war. Once I got a little bit older I started to understand that guys are just not the best communicators. Which doesn't mean they are not interested.

There are various reasons. Some girls are just being protective of their hearts. They don't want to fall right away unless they will be reciprocated. Also, they would like to know you more. She just wants to make sure before she can be vulnerable to you.

[Phoenix_Red]

it could be that you haven’t had a chance to actually spend alone time with the her. Maybe she’s just protective of her heart some people are difficult to read. And just maybe she really is not interested but the only way to really know is to talk to her

[cth96190]

If a female pretends to not be interested, just blow her out an airlock and move on.
Given the current state of hair trigger sexual harassment rules, only a complete idiot would pursue a female.
The first time that she says no, fold your tent and disappear into the night, never to be seen again.

[chibi_anon]

there's multiple reasons:

reason one - she want to see how far you'll go to have her.

reason two - she's broken, and doesn't trust you with her heart just yet.

reason three - she is not interested

reason four - she has a boyfriend

reason five - ... etc...

[Robintt]

She is playing hard to get. I've been doing that all the time because I've been too scared to approach someone. It doesn't work that great. It seems like I need to change the tactic 😅

[spartan55]

Because those are the stupid games many like to play. They want to look 'desperate' or 'needy' when all they really do is show they aren't really interested.

[spartan55]

*don't want

[Schnyder21]

So many reasons. May be she doesn’t know how to handle it, may be she doesn’t think her friends will approve, low self confidence... could be so many things. If you really like her, keep going at it.

[Anonymous]

Real question, are you afraid to be incapable to find another one who doesn't play stupid games?
If she pretends she isn't really interested, she enjoys just your pointless circling around her butt. Even if you get her, she will be disappointing in every aspect of relationship with her.

[pigoat]

Because she is interested in you lmao


All the girls rumored to like me back in jr high use to take pens and stab me with them and throw big erasers at my face

Are they embarrassed to say that they like me

[FishyNinja]

- Maybe she is interested but doesn't want to be in a relationship right now
Or
-She wants you to try harder. Because humans are usually drawn to things they can't have

[Anonymous]

They are pretend that they aren't interested in me but they really are. I think its because they are embarrassed that they are attracted to a big fat smelly guy and that is not something that their friends would understand. Oh and I'm 4 foot 2 inches tall, so I have that going for me too.

[LolaPop756]

Maybe she wants to make sure that you're not just messing with her. She wants to make sure that it's not a trap...

What did you do to show interest? Is she usually shy? Are you both friends?

The context is rather important.

[Hangry22]

Dude aren't you done with that girl?
You're the guy who was asking about some girl who tries to get you all jelaous right?

[Doflamingo1]

Loool leave him be

[Hangry22]

@Doflamingo1 ik. It's just i have described to this guy about the psychology behind this girls behaviour many times

[TessCasie]

Could be various reasons. If you could write up your story if you faced any. I’ll tell you then 😄

[Unit1]

They don't pretend. They're uninterested for real. See what happens if you reciprocate that and you'll see you've been watering a dead plant.

[mobiusforniner]

Good advice. I stopped all contact with a woman who was pretending. After a week or so she came back telling me she was "thinking of me". WTH

[Unit1]

@mobiusforniner
Yeah, they do that 🙄 silly them.
It is really that simple: Either she's into you or she's not. Most of them won't be.

[Agem123]

How do you know she's pretending tho?

Maybe she doesn't like you for real.

[blondfrog]

How do you know she actually isn't' just interested?

[Anonymous]

How do you know she’s pretending and that she’s literally just not into you?

[Angelo75]

To make you work harder. (Very mean)

[Lizzzzz288283]

How do you know that she’s pretending?

[Gwenhwyfar]

Maybe she’s really not interested

[sheikalana]

How do you know she's pretending?

[Iron_Man]

Well what if she isn’t interested?

[Wise4myage]

She wants you to chase her.

[Fuego_exe]

Anime brain says: tsunderes!

[coolhandroo]

That's the name of the game bro

[KrakenAttackin]

Maybe she really isn't that into you.

[InferiorElegy]

Who says she's pretending?

[Inquisitive3]

She really isn't?

[In_Trance]

She's not pretending

[Anonymous]

Ego!!
