Why Do Women Do This?

So I have a friend that I’ve known for a while. She recently asked me what my perfect woman was. I responded that I don’t believe that there are any perfect women out there. So then she asked me what were the characteristics in a woman that I would tolerate. I responded that I never tolerate things for long. She then got frustrated and I had my good laugh for the day. It’s really fun to know what people want to know and then not give them the answer by giving them the answer they didn’t want to hear and can’t argue with. But I knew what she was doing. It’s that same trick that all women play on unsuspecting men. First thing they do is ask for you to describe something that you know doesn’t exist, like your perfect woman. Then they gripe at you. Telling you that the thing you described as being perfect, doesn’t exist and that you shouldn’t hold out for that. Telling you how unrealistic it is to have dreams of perfection and that you should lower your target…a lot. So I decided to play along. So I honestly described my perfect woman and then the second part happened.

So my question is, why do women do this? Is it a tactic to throw us guys off balance in an effort to keep control? Or is it absolutely involuntary and you women really don’t realize what you are doing? I find it frustrating having someone ask me about a situation that will never happen and then tell me that my goals are too high. If those were my goals, I definitely would move somewhere else where those situations were the majority, and then play to the fact that many women have lowered self-esteem. It’s the same exact reason why below average looking guys in L.A. have amazing looking girlfriends. Take into account that the hottest women from every area flock to L.A. to be a model or actress. So now you have a super-saturation of hotness in one area…self esteem is bound to be crushed. It’s like the perfect storm for self-esteem crushing. And all these little weasels are quick to scoop up the jaded youth or the broken down twenty-something.

So I’m not sure what the reasoning is, but I’m out here to let all the guys know what the deal is. I’ve seen too many of my friends fall for this one, and if you answer honestly without perceiving what is happening, then guys you will always lose this argument. Granted we “lose” every argument, but it’s a bait and switch. If this were business, ladies you’d all be thrown in jail. Sorry if I blew your cover ladies, but I’m just thinking out loud.

P.S. Ladies you don’t actually have to worry, because no guys read my blogs, so your secret is safe. At least until I write my book that no one will buy.
