Round 1. Win.

Below is based on a true account, a recent chat log between Jacklyn and I. The main purpose behind this post is to provide guidance to fellow friends so that when such situation arises, a favourable outcome can be achieved. Without further ado, let the tutorial begins...

[15:56] laureljacklyn: btw, just now lunch at menara weld there got guess bag shop
analysis: the subject starts the assault by a sudden diversion in topic, intending to catch the target off guard. It is clear that the subject has experience in planning surprise attacks, judging from the time and method of execution.

[15:57] laureljacklyn: the whole shop full with guess bags... nearly carry out a bag from that shop
analysis: the subject continues by giving the target an overview of the settings, before slowly narrowing the topic into the actual intention, that the subject has set her sights onto a single item, a BAG to be precise. the subject then proceeds to signal her target, she desires the item but has yet to make the purchase.

[15:57] laureljacklyn: poisonous
analysis: the subject tries to draw pity from the target by informing him indirectly that no purchase was made although the temptation was really high. one of the many types of psychological attack, very dangerous.

[15:57] laureljacklyn: my colleague told me that bag so match me *sad face emoticon*
analysis: the final blow. the subject brings in supportive information to strengthen her cause, that others were of the same opinion, the desired item looks good on her, concluding that the target should have actually purchased it. the inclusion of a sad face emoticon is to further enhance the emotional effect on the target.

Well, at this point, we know that the subject is obviously trying to get the target to purchase the item for her. Now, I, as the target, shall reveal the ultimate weapon that can be used to repel such attack effectively, with a success rate of 99.9%.

However, depending on the characteristic of the subject, the result might differ from one person to another. Use at own risk. Please don't hunt or come looking for me later.

Success. This concludes that careful analysis yields great results.
