Wherever there are electronic measures, there will be electronic counter measures. Wherever there are electronic counter measures, there will be electronic counter counter measures. The number of counters in the name could conceivably go on indefinitely. However, the usual case is to simply improve on electronic counter measures to ensure that they are not foiled by electronic counter counter measures.



I guess the same would go for my saturaday's post. If someone is dropping hints at you that they like you, how do you drop hints to that person if you don't really like that person? My initial thoughts were to act blur and pretend not to pick up the hints. However, how would the other person differentiate between not picking up the hints and not interested? Having someone fawn over you is nice, but doesn't that in a way constitute of misleading?



I guess the age old method of counter hints is to again use a mutual friend. And what would your mutual friend say this time? Tell that person that you're not interested in him/her? That would work pretty well, but it could potentially devastate the other person. A more subtle way would be for your mutual friend to say that you're interested in someone else. That could possibly make the other person give up.



I have no idea why i am talking about these things these days. Considering my experience is not exactly fabulous or anything. But since i was on topic, i thought i'll just follow up :p
