Читать книгу This Incredible Creation Called Woman - David Medley - Страница 4

Your reputation as a woman precedes you. In some cases, it follows you. If you run in one or more tight social circles, you'll come face to face with this law often.

For example, some guys will only talk to a woman within their social circle because they've heard she's easy. So while that girl is thinking "yay he's so into me", he's really plotting and making a measured bet that he'll get sex soon, based on what he knows of her reputation. So, if you've ever seen a girl with a bad reputation or not particularly appealing, but somehow gets all the attention from guys, don't envy her. Pity her. It's possible she might just be a target. That is an unhappy and powerless situation to be in.

The type of men who will approach you usually depends on your reputation and how you present yourself as a woman. If your reputation is that of a confident, smart, and respectable lady, the Jersey Shore douchey type of guy is probably going to stay far, far away.

And even with strangers or people you've just recently met, you are airing your reputation, whether you intend to or not. For instance, let's talk about sleeping with a man on the first or second date.

Come on, ladies. We have to be realistic here. Men are not usually deep thinkers when it comes to women-they don't feel any special connection with you after just one or two dates. Please stop watching romantic comedies that sell you that bit about "love at first sight." It's bogus.

So, if you sleep with a guy on the first or second date, don't be surprised and hurt when he treats you like a whore or an afterthought. If you drink like a fish when you're out at a bar, don't be surprised when someone you met there treats you accordingly. It doesn't matter how great you look or how good of a woman you think you are. Also, keep in mind that the places you spend most of your time and the company you keep might affect your reputation, positively or negatively.
