Why does it seem like guys like me more when I’m unfriendly or aloof?

[Anonymous]

Especially if I don’t smile or smile back. I don't know, seems like they’ll still stare and try to get my attention.

You are a challenge to their ego.

By not smiling back or being unfriendly, they feel that they need to prove to themselves that they have what it takes to try to get their attention and smile back.

Being aloof is the best way to keep a certain distance between people and I am a master at it because I don't want to give the wrong impression.

Guys hate it when their attempts to get a girl's attention fails and they take it as a personal offense or challenge. They will go the extra distance to try to break the ice. Most of the time, they make fools out of themselves.

In the end they don't like you more.

Maybe they like a woman that plays hard to get
