So last week at bowling practice, one of my friends and his friend were begging me to show them some magic. I thought it would be a good time to try out Con Cam Coincidencia. I asked another friend if he would like to help and he said yes without hesitation because he loves magic. Anyhow, throughout the whole effect, the friend that originally asked to see magic, and the other kid would not stay focused and pay attention. The only one that would pay attention was the friend that I called over. The other two wouldn't listen to me or pay attention and THEY were the ones begging to see magic in the first place. Needless to say, my packet, and the friend I called over's packet had the correct top card, and the other two's did not. I didn't make a big thing about it and just put the magic up and the kid my friend had called over started making fun of me and calling me a failure. I just ignored it and bowled.
Today we had bowling tournament. I got to the alley a bit early and hand my Guardians out and was flourishing before tournament started (helps loosen up tension in my hands and gets me focused before I bowl!). Anyhow, I was minding my own business when people started to show up. A few kids were sitting around me and then the one that made fun of me for the trick not working last week walked over and said "show me some magic." I simply said "nah, not today. We have tournament."
This was his response - "Why? Scared you will FAIL like last week? P****. Show me a trick."
Again, I said "No, I am not doing magic today, I am going to focus on my bowling."
He said this - "That's ok...You suck at magic anyways. Piece of s***." and then he walked off.
This was all after I was nice enough to show them a magic trick that they begged for and then they wouldn't even pay attention (at one point, I litterally shook my friend by the arm and said "Devin, I am in the middle of a trick you begged to see" and he STILL did not even look at me)
How do you deal with people like this?
