Men are by nature inclined to pursue a woman, to seek her. As a rule, women enjoy such courtship. However, if you do not feel sympathy for your boyfriend and are not going to enter into a close relationship with him, you need to learn how to keep a man at a distance.
Instructions
Step 1
Avoid prolonged eye contact. When you talk, glance quickly into your face and immediately turn your gaze to something else.
Step 2
If a man is flirting, pretend not to take a hint, take it seriously, or just ignore it.
Step 3
Try not to be alone with your man. If you have to go somewhere together, take a girlfriend or other accompanying person with you. When, despite all your efforts, you are still alone with a man, avoid even cursory eye contact, look around. Transfer the conversation to acquaintances or discussion of any pressing problems.
Step 4
With all our appearance, let's understand that a man is indifferent to you. Keep a cool politeness in your interactions. Do not allow any outbursts of anger or flirtation towards a man.
Step 5
Let the man know that you already have someone, and this person can stand up for you.
Step 6
Stop any attempts at physical contact. If the man gets too close and invades your personal space, step back, restoring a neutral distance between you. When there is nowhere to go, you will be helped out by any posture that is translated from body language as “closed”. If the annoying boyfriend decides to hug you, remove his hand from you and accompany this action with a remark in the spirit of the same cold politeness.
Step 7
Avoid accepting gifts from a man that oblige you to do something. For example, if this is your boss, and for the 8th of March he made a small present to each employee, you can accept such a gift. However, if you are presented with an individual gift, and besides an expensive one, you should refuse it.
Step 8
With a man who bothers you with his feelings, keep conversations of an exclusively practical nature. For example, if the annoying boyfriend is your coworker, only talk to him about work. Stop any attempts to turn the conversation to personal topics by saying that you have an urgent task and other similar excuses.
