Here's an example of how that happened. I want to a get together held by some friends. Almost as soon as i entered I passed a man talking to a woman. He then introduced her to me. I said hi, and went on in. Later after the lady left the guy announced to the other people-would u believe I introduced him to Sue (not her name) and he didn't stop to talk. Apparently it had been an attempt on his part to get me to start talking to the lady and he had expected me to jump for the opportunity to talk to the woman (although I had no foreknowledge) I explained I wasn't interested in talking with her. Only for a mob of other guests to literally make me the centre of attention bombarding me with reasons I should consider her -She's nice -She's serious about God. -You don't fall in love at first sight. All the while I'm telling tjem repeatedly i wasnt interested and was getting increasingly irritated. The effect was that I develoows more of an apprehension of ever talking to her afterwards.
