Why Women Test, And What You Can Do About It

A few weekends ago, I was in the club, talking to a hot female. I noticed she was looking at the bouncer across the room, and teased her, saying “He’d be good for you.”
She said: “No… he’s too… large,” then she looked into my eyes and said “Looks are very important to me.”
If I had any hang-ups about my looks, I would get self-conscious, she’d pick up on it, and any attraction she’d had for me would be gone.
Instead, I just said “Ah. That’s nice,” and started telling a story.
When you start going out to meet women, they will say things to test you – and you won’t even know it’s a test! They will say anything they can to see if they can trip you up. They’ll bust your balls about your looks or any random fact you say to them. Anything she thinks that you have your ego invested in. She might even look away and appear uninterested for a few minutes, just to see how you react.
Now, they’re not doing it to be deliberately unkind. They just want to confirm that you really are the man you’re presenting yourself as. They’ll push a few buttons to see how you react – to see if you have the internal strength that she truly desires in a man. As an illustration, imagine you’re a caveman and she’s a cavewoman. She needs to know you have the strength of character to be a man when your family is in danger. So she’ll test you a little to see what kind of man you are.
So what can you do about this? Here are a few techniques you can use. Imagine a girl calls you a player.
- Agree with her, then turn it around: “Yes I am – so what is it you like about players?”
- Misinterpret. “Yeah, I like to play basketball, pictionary, scrabble. I play the French horn and I play the fool. What were we talking about again?”
- Just agree with her. “Yep. I am a player.”
- Ignore it.
Though truly the best way to pass a woman’s tests is practice. Not many things are going to give you as much confidence as talking to a thousand women. You’ll quickly learn how little it matters whether a woman wants to be your friend or not. The whole thing will be put into perspective, and when some little girl gives you grief about your bald spot, you’ll just laugh.
