I attempted my first neg-hit today, but it went bad.
I approached this girl who looked like she was a runner.
Me: Hey, do you run?
Her: Yeah, I did (some) marathon.
Me: cool, what kind of training did you do to prepare.
Her: well I'm in this group and we train together. We did blah blah and blah.
Me: Repeat what she says.
Me: So, do you run out in the sun a lot?
Her: yeah
Me: Yeah it looks like it
Her (with a different attitude): What do you mean?
Me: Well, your face looks like it's been out in the sun A LOT.
Her: In a good way or bad way?
Me: Well it looks like your starting to develop lines on your face.
Her: Well, thank you (very pissed off)
Now she turns away from me. I think she's holding back from crying.
Now I try to show her that I'm sorry.
Me: Well, the reason I ask is because I've read some articles on running and skin cancer is a common topic. Do you wear sunblock?
Her: Yeah
Me: Have you noticed any more moles since you started running?
Her: No
Turns away again
Me: So do you lift weights too or just run
Her: just run
Now she turns away more and takes a few steps away. I could tell that I really hurt her feelings.
I really wanted to apologize, but I thought that would just make it worse. Then I ended feeling bad about it the whole day.
What if I see her again?
And also comments about this?
I actually regret this.
But, I didn't lie. In fact, I did notice this right away.
One last note: My tone above might have made it sound like she bought the neg-hit and was testing to see if I'd supplicate. I am sure that this wasn't the case...my tone might make it sound like that though. She was really upstrot and hurt because of what I said.
I don't think she was the type of girl on a pedestal. Being an athlete and dressing in that kind of clothes kinda supports this guess since the pedestal girls usually dress up and have an attitude (often middle eastern girls HB5 and up).
