“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

So yesterday at work I was in a conversation with a couple of my co-workers, another dude and a woman, all around 23-25 age range. We were discussing the specifics of a product, and the other dude said it's price: "Oh it costs X," and such and such. I recalled that the price was actually different than what he mentioned (and it was important because it was the focus of the discussion), and said: "Uh wait, I thought the price was Y" The girl then said to me (in a rather challenging/rude manner) "Well why don't you go check the price then?" I was like "I mean...I could check I suppose" - I went and checked the price (and turned out to be correct >_>), kinda just giving in.

Anyway, my question is how should one respond to this kind of statement (challenging and maybe a bit disrespectful)? I feel like I didn't have the social acumen to give an appropriate retort, and kinda just keeled over without putting up resistance. These kinds of situations pop up all the time (definitely a recurring thing with women), and I'm wondering how I can effectively respond as a socially adept man.

It may seem small, but these sorts of events kinda eat at my pride (even at work, which is thought to be a purely professional environment, but even still I notice these dynamics coming into play), and it's likely I'm being too accommodating; I feel like there's a better way to stand up for myself, somehow. Do y'all have any thoughts/advice/insight?
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

Do what she would do, file a report to HR explaining how your feelings are hurt and it stressed you out how she spoke to you. be detailed about what she did exactly. be the victim. beat these fks at their own game.

personally I wouldnt go that route, but what I would have done on the spot is "Excuse me _____, but you dont need to speak to me in a disrespectful tone like that. This is a professional setting and our actions should reflect that by using courtesy and respect when interacting. Thank you, and for 100% confirmation I will definitely go check and let you guys know." Then I would go double check, come back with the victorious information and a calm but smug look on my face. Ownage.

The point is to stop disrespect as soon as it starts. If she thinks she can get away talking to you like that, she will push it even further in the future and your other coworker there saw your weakness as well and that will effect their outlook toward you.
