Without question, the skills for sorting out, Dog Whistles in guy dating speak, gave me an edge, both in dating and my, now 8yr/2married, to Hot Guy thinks I walk on water. Few months after marrying, an act of greed, nearly took my life. Emotional fall-out? In menopause and it's now on steroids.
Was looking for committed relationship. Had my top 10, "If he has all my top 10 and none of my FOR GET ITS, I'd give him a look and not-untill I'd put him on mental hold by getting him hooked. "Would you like to dance". He asks. "Not YET"!!! (In her own style) She answers.
Next, having been, The Nice Girl, my dating "skills" were fraught with what men saw as female "Whistles". Aka: Full discloser of their personal lives, financial, family history, other mens short comings, medical, whatever he sees as, to much information, TO SOON!!! Why do they hear it that way? He'd never do that and only to a long-term big R...(possibly leading to)... M. There's some unknown to you, criteria he uses in a knee-jerk reaction, don't give him any ammunition.
Developed, female opening, closing-out, dating-lines, responses . Being, TNG, heart on the sleeve, how can I help you, that's so sad he needs understanding bla bla bla. While still being true to myself,TNG. We, TNG's, need a book sharing what works, in numerous dating events, situations. MORE

Now ready to meet people and not date. When approached to dance. A polite "No and thank you." "No, but thank you." What is this manipulation? No it's "Tell them to F...K off." That's one way, tell it like it's is, to do anything different would be manipulation. NG do not want to hurt peoples feelings, everyone is to be treated like a Girl Scout selling cookies. Why is this done... do unto others as you would have them do unto you, possible problem, they see... doing unto others... very different. There are very respectful, fun, laugh at statements and questions that provide clues to the Wise NG. Have fun
