Hey folks,

 

New female coworker started about 3 weeks ago. She was super cool, friendly and a bit flirty very soon. I just figured that it was her personality. Another thing I noticed was that she loves attention.

 

I always say good morning and head to my seat. The other day she comes to my desk and says that I didn't say good morning. I told her that I did. I forgot where the conversation went, but I remember that she said that she was going to ignore me that same way. Seemed as if she was joking

 

I come in the following day and say good morning and she ignores me. I knew that she heard me so I just kept it moving. I just ignore her now because I hate games like that especially at the workplace.

 

Am I doing the right thing?

I would still be friendly to her but I would probably cross her off my “people to get to know better list...” I hate those kinds of games too.

All I can do I guess. In a perfect world I would cut her off completely, no words. But you can't go about it like that at the workplace.

Well, that seems a little harsh to me... I mean, she didn’t key your car or spit in your coffee... ;)

Dude,

 

you'll learn this soon girls like that love attention from every single guy. They are emotional vampires. They are not doing it because of YOU. They are doing it for THEM.

 

Avoid this thot.

Not harsh. It's always best to be cool with coworkers, male and female. You don't want any weirdness in the workplace. Now instead of feeling like she's a female coworker and interacting on/at that level, she has brought in the man/woman game playing attention seeking power strategy into the workplace. Men and woman should always maintain that colleague level maturity at the job.

 

Leave the other dynamic outside.

100% accurate. I know she feels entitled to attention and if you're like me and nonverbally challenge that by keeping my focus on me, they take it extra personally.

 

My point is that some woman can control that attention thirst in the workplace, but this girl is super thirsty for that attention fuel, workplace or not.

9/10 times Hot women grow up with this kind of entitlement. I wouldn't blame them so much about it. It's not entirely their fault...it's just how people have been reacting to them their whole lives.

 

Personally speaking, if you wanna bang her. Fine, but probably not a good idea to do that if you work together cause drama is ultimately NOT what you want (as a man, you know this).

Again, 100% on the spot. I don't blame them, but I've had trouble with their entitlement beliefs because I don't play into. I focus on myself and discipline myself to stay on point. Their entitlement and my unwillingness to lose my focus, makes things intense, usually because the women may think that I'm ignoring them on purpose.
