Women are manipulative creatures themselves. They make themselves look a certain way, smell a certain way, move a certain way&#8230; all to attract the strongest, most dominant men out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, men manipulate women with their confidence, intelligence, and wit&#8230; making themselves look even stronger and more dominant than they really are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Face it &#8212; the dating game is a game of manipulation, where the savviest manipulator (that should be <em>you<\/em>) wins.

After striking up a conversation with her, you say this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201cI sense that you\u2019re extroverted and sociable most of the time&#8230; but sometimes you prefer some alone time.<\/em><\/p><p><em>Honesty and openness are two very important traits to you&#8230; for both yourself and your perfect partner.<\/em><\/p><p><em>Guys try to hit on you, but you\u2019re skilled enough to know how to instantly spot the time wasters.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think this sounds difficult to memorize, don\u2019t worry. You don\u2019t have to follow the script entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you need to do is follow two simple rules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Make flattering statements.<\/strong> Everyone likes to think of themselves as good, honest, person. Therefore, use terms like <em>good-hearted, open, caring, thoughtful, <\/em>and <em>hardworking <\/em>generously.<\/li><li><strong>Never ask her a direct question.<\/strong> This is very important. Asking her a question would ruin the illusion that you\u2019re able to <em>see <\/em>her for who she really is.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Easy, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve successfully delivered the Barnum Statement, guess what happens?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, she&#8217;ll feel an immediate rapport with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, her <em>selective memory <\/em>kicks in.

Believe me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She will give you access to her innermost feelings and open her heart to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this, my friend, is the crux of the <strong>Barnum Effect<\/strong> \u2013 <em>it will get her to trust you wholeheartedly<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(And when you&#8217;ve gotten her to trust you, then you can <em><strong>manipulate<\/strong> <\/em>her&#8230;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She won\u2019t have any idea how you\u2019ve done it.

Closely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sounds creepy, but it isn\u2019t. Trust me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Practice your observation skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You know, observe things like <em>her age, social status, ethnicity, make-up, amount and type of jewelry, body language, general demeanor, posture&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these characteristics will give you a few clues about her character, and what\u2019s important to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pay particular attention to age.<\/strong> This can tell you what stage she\u2019s likely to be at in her life (and her corresponding priorities) &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>20-30:<\/strong> Likely to be either a carefree party animal or maybe even beginning to settle down.<\/li><li><strong>31-40:<\/strong> Looking for her perfect partner or regretting not having (enough) fun in her 20\u2019s.<\/li><li><strong>41+:<\/strong> Looking for a true, long-term companion. Or, she might be divorced or separated from a long-term relationship. Could be rediscovering herself after years of domestic life.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technique #2: The Pollyanna Principle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pollyanna Principle illustrates an important phenomenon about women:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They will always accept positive statements about themselves. Correspondingly, they will always reject negative statements about themselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does this surprise you? I sure hope not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research has shown this to be true\u2026 even when the positive statements are FALSE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you read that right. <em>Women will accept and agree with positive statements even if they are completely false.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And correspondingly, women reject negative statements (even if they are true).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So here&#8217;s the two main rules to obey when crafting a Barnum Statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Pepper your conversations with positive statements (even if they are false).<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Avoid negative statements (even if they are true).<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, you could say to a loud, arrogant woman you\u2019ve got your eye on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cYou seem like a confident, strong-willed person.
