We
are tested everyday. At work, at home, everywhere. Testing is about
decisions. Are you going to make the right decision that provides you
with the outcome you desire? Do you have the fortitude to say - 'Win
or lose, I am making a stand'? Or are you going to fail to make a decision
and be led by this failure your entire life. To me, testing is that
serious.
Although until recently, I have never put it into words - TESTING
(a pseudo Hoop theory) is something that I am sure almost everyone experiences
when dealing with a girl. I have been tested by girls and won 50% of
the time. If I had been more cognizant of what was happening - I am
sure I would have won almost every time. GIRLS ALWAYS TEST YOU! It is
one way of determining whether you are worthy (survival of the fittest
maybe?) of their love/lust/sex etc.
Do you give in? Buy them flowers when they ask? Pick them up for shopping
and drop them off even though you are busy? This is all testing AND
the more I read about SS and ASF, the more I realised it was happening
to me.
And you know what? As soon as I recognized it, I started to train against
it. I started providing myself with steps to counter these TESTS. Recognizing
it is the BEST WAY TO PREVENT IT! Here are some recent examples:
1) Girl starting poking me in the chest - I poked
her back - TEST PASSED
2) Girl asked me to pass her something that she was closer too getting
than I : I said 'Don't test me' smiling slightly- TEST
PASSED
3) Girl told me what she likes drinking : I said 'That's nice, get me
a coke while you are buying that for yourself' - TEST
PASSED
At the end of each test, the girl smiles slyly and she might even be
surpirsed. But she knows she has tested me and to tell you the truth,
she prefers to LOSE! If she loses, you are a challenge. Girls want a
challenge - they don't want doormats. Yes, you can be nice to a girl
- holding open the door for them, being gentlemenly, being chivalrous
etc. But there is a fine line between being gallant and bending over
backwards.
Passing the test is easier than you think - but it takes the realization
WHEN IT IS HAPPENING (the process) to really have the most effect. Don't
worry about exactly what she will say (content) it is not important.
Just recognize the process behind it. As I have stated before, the more
you become aware of it (the process), you can defeat it and win everytime.
Knowing your Rules
Girls
also want to know your RULES. We all crave rules and structures in our
lives, it helps eliminate guess work and makes it less chaotic than
it already is. Can you imagine a society where there were no rules?
With women it is the same thing. You can avoid alot of testing if you
tell the girl your RULES and stick by it. Don't get mad, don't get vengeful
- just tell them. If they are late for a date - don't scream and yell.
Simply call them up, tell them that she is late and disrespected your
time and that in the future any dealing with you will have to be on
time (not late) or you will not be available. Now you can't have a rule
for everything, but it is nice to be assertive when it counts. Here
are a few of my rules:
Don't disrespect my time.
If you say you are going to do something, DO IT!
If you are going to be late, call first.
