"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Who lies more? Men or Women? ;)
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Women, easily. Of course, that depends on the woman, and that depends on the lie. Women tend to try and convince themselves of wat they're saying. They might even THINK they believe that.

Example: Yesterday, some women were talking with some of my male friends. I overheard them, and joined the conversation late. These are women I've known for several months.

"I want a man of god; and a man who is good with children? That's really sexy. Looks totally aren't an issue." All the women at the table chime in and start agreeing with that mantra.

Sure you do, ladies. Sure you do. :rolleyes:

(Then 5 minutes later, they're talking about how they watch Top Gun for scenes with Tom Cruise's shirt off.) Yeah.

I think most of us are wanting so badly to believe what a woman says, whether we're male or female. There's the main difference.

I heard a quote somewhere, but I'm not exactly sure who to attribute it to.

It went something like this: When men lie, it's "Hey honey, I'm at so and so's house watching the game" When they're actually at a strip club.

When women lie: "The baby's yours"

We as men have to understand the underhandedness of most women. And to make it worse, they do it under the guise that "they really didn't know what they were doing"...Women are much craftier then we'll ever be.

It's true they might try to convince themselves what they do is the truth, or justified, but that doesn't make it so.
