Everyone has experienced that moment when you are walking along, happily minding your own business, then you notice some fucker coming towards you who is in your flight path!
Shit.
Is he gonna move?
Do you move?
How long should you wait til you move?
You edge one foot ever so slightly in a different direction, causing your body to shift and start upon a new trajectory.
Oh shit.
He's done the same. How awkward.
What the fuck do you do now?
Ding ding ding ding. I have the answer: You no longer need to suffer this humiliating scenario, you quite simply disengage.
The trick is to not get caught in the other walker's eyeline. I know you want to, but do not make eye contact. Never look at their feet. Just look away. Disengage. Only for a few seconds. By the time you return your head to normal position, the other walker will have removed themselves from your trajectory.
And if you want their attention, you do the opposite.
