Amused mastery and swatting away shyt tests

[Greasy Pig]

My GF is a good woman who treats me like gold 95% of the time.
But occasionally - as all women do - she behaves inexplicably and it drives me insane.
Out of the blue she'll criticise me for shyt that the day before she said was hilarious. Stuff like that.
I used to lose my shyt and argue, but after reading some threads on here about learning a woman's "tells" and just letting her bullsht fall off you like water on a rock, I've adopted a different mindset.

The other night we were discussing her friend who's having relationship problems and the subject of initiating sex came up.
I said that it makes men feel great when a woman initiates as it boosts their ego. The conversation escalated in to a debate all of a sudden.
She replied (stupidly): "So a woman should just love a man even when he's unlovable?"
The statement was obviously meant to get me to question my own "lovability".

The old me would've gone down that track and confronted her about what she meant.
But instead I said sarcastically: "Awww, are you saying I'm unlovable? Boo hoo."
Then I smacked her on the arse as I went outside for a smoke.

Since then, she's told me she loves me more times than ever and has been far more affectionate.
This was the first real chance I'd had to test my new mindset and it appears to be working.

Hopefully some other guys here can take heart from this.
Simply don't let petty bullsht get to you, treat her like an annoying kid sister and be the rock which her waves of feminine behaviour cycles smash against.

Excellent thread.

I have posted several threads on this very topic. Every girlfriend will do as you mentioned above. People not in relationships see this as a "naggy gf" and "shes being rude". They are ignorant. Women have it in their blood to constantly test a man to make sure hes as alpha as he leads on....the more alpha you are....the more tests and behavior like this crop up.

You handled it EXACTLY like I would have. Never fight....use your "thunderbolts" sparingly. Always elect to deflect. Well played...

Thanks Exception. Your threads formed part of my decision to try this different tack.

Golden, repped. Arguing with women is pointless. Tease, tease, tease and tease some more. Young boys who believe in cooties have more game than most of the male population.
