why is that when you tell someone you dont want something they want it more?

A lot of people play hard-to-get.  He wants you so badd... but you are so far away that he needs something to take his mind off of you.  Just being apart is not good enough.  If he had another woman, then it'll help him even more, although he loves you very much.

Because you are asking them to do something...maybe they don't like you

to me it means whenever you are trying to tell someone what is good or not for them and they feel like you, as the speaker, don't have the right to do so for whatever reason.  Either you haven't had their experience to tell them what's good for them, or you are being hypocritical. For example: you are a smoker and you tell someone not to smoke.

Sounds like its just an easy way out..Maybe to try and not hurt your feelings, when what she/he really wanted to say was "I dont want to be with you anymore"

It is not rude to tell someone that you are not interested in them as anything more than a friend.  Not telling them is leading them to believe that there is more to the imagined friendship than really exists.

I often just giggle and ask, "What's in it for me?" and if they can't give me an acceptable answer, then I tell them, "sorry, I really cannot do that..." I do not do a lot of favours for people. I will do them for a few people now ad then, but rarely. I use to be the one who did favours for everyoe. Got tired of being taken advantage of, so now I just say, no can do, sorry.

i'm no dr. phil, but my guess would be they were trying to justify something they were doing by telling you to do the same thing, OR they are letting you know in a really chicken-poop way that they are not interested in you

they just want to be nice about it but really its not because your thinking things are cool when in fact they dont have no attention of talking to you again. People need to not say things they dont mean.

Perhaps it is a person who prefers to help others than to expose her/his own feelings and personal life. I don't think it is lack of curiosity,maybe that person just prefers to keep her/his things to herlsef/himself.

Most people wants things that are hard to get.  It is a challenge for them.  It makes them feel more attractive and wanted than your current beau.

Unfortunately, some people just like that, and no matter how many times you tell them in one way or another that you don't appreciate it, they still going to do it. It's a personality, and you either have to accept it, or loose a friend...

You can want something and not actually need it.

i think it is because they might be trying to tell you something. you don't now why just ask them maybe something is going on that you should know about. or they are just being defiant.
