  • Some thoughts...

    I came across this article.  I found a lot of truth in it.  I admit it, I can't "read" women unless they are sitting at a table with chips and cards (and even then it's hit and miss).  The thing is I hate subtlety.  I like direct communication.  However, I have to admit that I am guilty of using subtle communications (mainly unconsciously). 


    On that note, I think about all my interactions and I wonder what kinds of signals were sent and received.  The habit that I have whenever I interact with the other gender is to evaluate everything I am about to say.  In the middle of conversations I go through a mental algorithm of possible responses based on what they have said to me.  In this algorithm I also project possible responses they will have to my responses.  I know this sounds a little nerdy and downright strange, but that's just the way I am. 


    Now, after reading this; some of my female readers will most likely unsubscribe.  However, those that know me personally please don't hold this against me.  Furthermore, please be more direct with me; it takes a lot of draining brain power to run those algorithms.

  • i can't believe we wasted taxpayer dollars on useless research like this. wow...

    funny stuff, though...

  • This article do not apply to you bro.  They did the study on college boys only.. mostly brain washed with hip hop and mass media.. and well their hormones helps them make more mistakes too =P

    But I feel you, most guys are not good at reading girls.  and at times I wonder if it is a good thing that we do not understand them.  maybe all we need to do is be ourselves and take it from there.. no?

  • You're not alone Steve.  I can't read them either which is why I'm waiting for the movie version.

  • Indirect communication is supposed to prevent embarrassment, but sometimes it just creates awkwardness. C'est l'amour. If it were easy, then it wouldn't be interesting.

  • haha, each individual women are different which makes any equation/algorithm flawed. Haha, the List.. It's hard to go over 15 I think.
