They Are Not Interested Michael Luketich

Having trouble convincing someone that you are not interested in them? Tired of seeing a friend or coworker's kindness mistaken for attraction and want to intervene? Now you can. They Are Not Interested is a short book directed to the person who cannot take the hint. It stretches the "many fish in the sea" cliché as far as possible, teaching the reader valuable lessons that it is not your job to teach, such as: (1) just because one fish is not interested, it does not mean no fish will ever be interested; (2) it is just as inappropriate to ask you why you are not interested as it would be to ask a fish why it is not biting; and (3) as in fishing, just because you think a fish looks like the right one from the surface, doesn't mean it actually is, so there's no reason obsessing over the one you can't catch. The book is designed to be light in tone, but also very focused on a singular message: "they are not interested." Written for a coworker, who shouldn't need a book like this but does, and offered here because her experiences aren't uncommon.
