In nethergrave jeremy creates an obstacle to dating the girl he likes by

Answer 1

Jeremy creates an obstacle to dating the girl he likes by ignoring her and pretending to be disinterested. He believes that by distancing himself, he can protect himself from potential rejection. Jeremy mistakenly believes that if he avoids getting too close to her, he won't be hurt if she rejects him or if their relationship doesn't work out. This fear of rejection and vulnerability leads him to create a barrier in their relationship, preventing them from forming a deeper connection.
