Shannon,
First, I'm wondering if there might be a way to improve, enhance, or more fully empower the magnet.
Second, there are other things I'm noticing but I don't know how to classify them.
Tonight I saw my favorite cashier at this grocery store. In my 30 second conversation, she gave me enthusiastic smiles, shook my hand so joyfully I thought she might shake my arm off, her face turned bright pink, she could hardly stand still, and soon she was having difficulties forming sentences that were more than 3 words... like her brain was shutting down and her gestures were becoming more erratic and random.
When I was shopping, she had moved to doing things in the isle... and she actively avoided me. She also turned her back on me at one point.
I've been seeing a number of variations like this where women will do things such as:
1) avoidance or disappearing
2) brain freeze (becoming less articulate, stuttering, stammering, saying things unrelated to the topic at hand, saying nonsequiturs, etc.)
3) nervousness and agitation
4) becoming more formal, like acting more serious, trying to force me into a customer role, etc.
5) doing things that might be embarrassing, like acting clumsy (I've seen that A LOT more!)
I'm thinking making the magnet stronger might soothe the avoidance and disappearing. But I don't know about the other things, but I do think that although a certain degree of excitement is great... too much may be detrimental to fulfilling the goals of the program. I'd really appreciate your input on all this.
