Male and Female Sociology

Ok, long story short, I'm a guy, and throughout my life theres always been at least one girl who treats me like shit for no good reason. At school, at work, even online. It's something thats been bugging me for the past several years. They say women are the greatest mystery in the universe, so I'd like to ask some of the ladies here one simple question. Guys, I'd like to hear your perspective also. If you've been through this.

Ladies, have you ever had a guy interested in you, but you weren't sure if he wanted to go out or just be friends? What do you do in these situations? Sometimes, when I'd like to get to know someone better I'll be a little friendly, try to strike up a conversation or what not. Usually, that works but on occasion theres one girl who responds with a mean attitude, a bitch for lack of a better word. She thinks I like her and she's not interested, so therefore she tries to turn me off by treating me like an idiot or lesser mortal, and nine times out of ten it works. Is it just my imagination or is she actually playing hard to get? Ladies, have you ever treated a guy like crap just because he liked you (as a friend or otherwise)?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm 23 and I work with two girls who I think are attractive, so I try to befriend them at least. One is 20, from what I heard, but she could probably be younger, which might explain it. She was being pretty bitchy today, for whatever reason, maybe I was too nice or something. One thing she did today was deliberately distract a coworker of mine, leaving me to do extra work. The other one is 23, and while not bitchy, she's friendly with mostly everyone else but me. I figured she must think I like her enough to ask her out, but since she's not interested (I guess) she treats me like a total stranger, sometimes not speaking back when I say 'hello' or 'good morning.'

O wow. What kind of women are these that you are picking? Do you REALLY find this more often than not? Thats rather strange. How do you pick them? ^_^

Not more often than not, perhaps one out of ten. Theres always one girl in a group who's like Miss Popularity. And since I've never been one to follow trends or fads, I automatically don't compute with her. This probably sounds like your typical High School social drama but for me its still everyday life. I'm tired of trying to be a girls friend then getting treated with disrespect and humiliation in return.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Now, you really should consider yourself here, too. I am not saying there's anything wrong with you or that you're lacking socially - I am just asking if there's a REASON these two women would outright be so ... avoidant. It's really impolite, especially in a work environment.

Yeah, I'll be honest, I don't have the greatest, friendliest, most outgoing personality in the world. I wish I did but you can't change who you are in one day y'know? I figure thats the kind of guy these girls want, which sucks for me because I'm almost the exact opposite, the silent type who never talks much and keeps to himself.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

You guys make a good point. That aura of confidence and assurtion is something I never really had, or at least put on display. Being that I don't talk much as is, my social skills naturally suck [but hey, I'm a good listener]. I'm the type of guy who you wouldn't know was in the room unless you bumped into him. Subilty and surprise has always been my style.
