Ignoring her the day after the first approach, a good idea or bad idea?

[Who is John Galt?]

Would it be a good idea to ignore her the day after the first approach? I haven't tested it yet but I think it may work. It will cause her to think about you the entire day the next day and eagerly await you talking to her again. It will also suggest you don't worship her and can survive without her. On the other hand, the downside may be that she may be turned off what she says a flakey behavior. Your thoughts?

Edit: I am talking about a girl in your school/class and when I say "ignore" I mean not having a conversation with her the next day.

Don't ignore her. That's just rude. Instead, just give her a "Hello" of some sort, but don't stop to have a conversation with her. I'm assuming you're talking about a girl in your school, btw.

Yeah, that is what I meant (I was unclear though). A simple hello but no conversation.

So you actually approach and don't get the number there, the first time?

hmm...I guess the number thing could go either way. The main thing, imo, is to make a statement of intent (i.e. "so not only are you attractive but you have a great sense of humor" after she makes a joke) that shows your interest at a high point in the initial conversation. Then "ignore" her the next day and return the following day, perhaps setting up the date then.

uh, what?

if you don't talk to her, chances are she won't notice or care.

build some lasting rapport with her. never ignore her, but make sure she understands that you don't need her.
