I read the post on seducing too well, and I have this problem also. So much so that it's happened on several occasions that after only interacting with a person once, they become obsessively infatuated with me to the point where the repercussions outweigh the benefits.
For example, sometimes they become infuriatingly annoying (e.g., texting at every point throughout the day wondering what I'm doing). Or, more commonly, the person will become actually scary when they can't have me, and they end up harassing or threatening me.
Additionally, seducing too much can be seen as an invite for someone to physically assault me for "leading them on" and, while I do like to control people's emotions, I don't like when strangers feel like they've been invited to touch me.
And, while somewhat less of a hinderance than assault, there's also the annoying possibility of someone wanting me to console them and then lashing out when I don't (though my friends have pretty much learned by now not to bring their emotional problems to me).
I'm actually so good at seducing (or, at least, I was) that I've all but stopped, and reverted to a life of just being weird and rather anti-social because of the sheer annoyance/fear of other people reacting the way they do. I do realize that being able to seduce and manipulate people could contribute more to my success, so I would like to be able to do it (though so far I've learned that it's not even worth it to put up with all the threats). How do you all manage to do it so that the benefit outweighs the repercussions?
