Article: Probably the easiest way to get someone to stop liking you, especially if you haven’t known them for long, is to just stop responding to them. You can choose to slowly stop responding to their texts and calls, or you can do it all at once. Either way, ignore them. Avoid sharing anything intimate about yourself. This will be a huge turn-off, because people need to feel like they can trust you and mutually share important things. Good communication is key to a good relationship, so the more you avoid sharing the more they’ll get the hint you’re not interested in starting an intimate relationship with them. Good relationships are about sacrifices and making time for each other. If you want to get them to stop liking you, stop making them a priority in your life. Don’t allow them to think you want a relationship with them. Focus on yourself, your friends, and the activities you want to do. Say “no” to any plans they want to make. Once you’ve tried to get them to stop liking you, they may try even harder to do nice things for you or flirt with you. Don’t acknowledge when they compliment you, buy you gifts, hold the door open for you, or check in on you. Don't encourage any flirting. Appreciation, gratitude, and kind words are essential for healthy relationships, so you should avoid them because otherwise you'll send mixed signals to the other person. If you've got an online presence, the person who likes you will still have access to you. By adjusting your privacy settings on social media, you'll be able to prevent them from seeing everything about your life. You can change your social media settings (particularly on Facebook) in several different ways, sometimes without the other person even knowing:  Block them, which will prevent them from trying to "friend" you in the future. Unfriend them. Unfollow them, which will still allow you to remain friends, but will hide them from your newsfeed. Customize your sharing settings, which will allow you to block them from seeing whatever you don't want them to see. Edit your timeline settings, which will allow you to block them from seeing anything posted to your timeline. Turn on the setting that allows you to review posts friends tag you in before they're posted to your timeline.

Fade out or ghost them. Stop sharing. Be selfish. Ignore their behavior. Adjust your social media settings.
Article: If you are working with a negative fraction, it will have a minus sign in front of it. It is good practice to always put parentheses around a negative number so you know that the “–“ sign is referring to the number and not telling you to subtract two numbers. For example: (–2/4) Square the fraction as you would normally by multiplying the numerator by itself and then multiplying the denominator by itself. Alternatively, you can simply multiply the fraction by itself. For example: (–2/4)2 = (–2/4) x (–2/4) When a minus sign is present, the entire fraction is negative. When you square the fraction, you are multiplying two negative numbers together. Whenever two negative numbers are multiplied together, they make a positive number. For example: (-2) x (-8) = (+16) After you have squared the fraction, you will have multiplied two negative numbers together. This means that the squared fraction will be positive. Be sure to write your final answer without the negative sign.  Continuing the example, the resulting fraction will be a positive number. (–2/4) x (–2/4) = (+4/16) Generally, the convention is to drop the “+” sign for positive numbers. The final step when doing any calculations with a fraction is to reduce it. Improper fractions must first be simplified into mixed numbers and then reduced.  For example: (4/16) has a common factor of four. Divide the fraction through by 4: 4/4 = 1, 16/4= 4 Rewrite simplified fraction: (1/4)

Recognize the negative sign in front of the fraction. Multiply the fraction by itself. Understand that two negative numbers multiply to make a positive number. Remove the negative sign after squaring. Reduce the fraction to its simplest form.
Article: Occasionally, gift card companies may try to charge you a fee for failing to use your card within a year. Federal law prohibits these types of charges. You cannot be charged an inactivity fee until after you have not used the card for a year and the card cannot expire for at least five years.  You should also check your state laws regarding gift card fees and expiration dates as some states have banned these practices.  You can review state and federal law regarding gift cards at: http://www.ncsl.org/research/financial-services-and-commerce/gift-cards-and-certificates-statutes-and-legis.aspx People are increasingly making large purchases over the internet. There are a number of things you can do to protect against fraud and consumer rights violations. One of the most important things that you should do is use a credit card when making online purchases. Credit card companies are responsible for fraudulent purchases over $50, whereas a debit card does not offer the same protection.  Before making an online purchase, you should read the website’s security policy and how it handles disputed charges. Some websites, such as eBay, offer customers a money back guarantee is a seller is unable to resolve an issue with your transaction.  Whenever an Amazon account holder goes to purchase an item, the website automatically shift the person’s account to an encrypted server to protect his or her payment information.  Amazon also allows you to dispute any unauthorized charges through Amazon directly with the company. If you make a purchase that you regret or felt pressured into, under federal law consumers have the right to cancel the purchase by midnight of the 3rd business day after the sale. Your purchase must be for $25 or more in order for the cooling off rule to apply. While federal and state laws place requirements on retailers regarding refunds, one of the best ways to protect your consumer rights is to ask a retailer to explain their return and refund policy before you make a purchase. It is more likely that a large retail operation will have posted their refund policies, however smaller retail operations or individuals may not. In addition to asking a retailer to explain their policy, you should review your state’s laws regarding refunds. You can find  a summary of state refund laws at: http://consumer.findlaw.com/consumer-transactions/customer-returns-and-refund-laws-by-state.html.
