whoa whoa whoa.......not exactly sure how this "truth" movement got started but I'm gonna save someone's life here. Lie your ass off. Women will tell you they want the truth but that's about as much bullshit as I've ever heard. Go ahead....tell her the truth.....if you like being bitched at for something you had nothing to do with because suddenly her huge ass is 100% your fault. Lose weight? Have you ever personally met a guy that's told his wife she needed to lose weight? I've heard the stories but I'm never actually met the guy....I strongly suspect this as a fairy tale invented by women who were running low on shit to bitch about trying to sucker in the dumb ones.
Let me help you single guys out that honestly may just not know any better. There are only a couple of acceptable answers to these questions.
"How do I look in this?"- Correct answer " I think you look great in it.....where did you buy that at?" This is a 2 pronged attack. When you add phrases like I THINK it automatically gives the woman a reason to ignore your advice and wear whatever the fuck she wants to wear because everyone knows men are dumb as hell and have no fashion sense. Let's make no mistake here.....she's gonna wear whatever the hell she wants to wear no matter what you think. She just has to find the correct reason to make it her decision. You will find this is a common theme in a womans life. Make her own decisions while at the same time making you look like a dumbbass....win/win. Adding the phrase "where did you buy that at?" gives her a reason to ramble on and on about some great deal she supposedly got on an outfit you give 2 shits about. Women love to talk about themselves. Remember that and life gets easier. If at any point in time you can flip the conversation around to where it gives her 15 minutes to ramble about herself then by all means go for it. It'll pay dividends.
"Do I need to lose weight?" or sometimes phrased "does this make me look fat?"- There's only one answer here and that answer is "hell no". You have to sound kinda pissed off that she would even ask you that question in order to sell it correctly. The worst mistakes you can make are to have more than a 1.3 second pause or add the phrase "uuuuum" before saying "hell no". You need to get in front of a mirror and practice this one until it just becomes automatic. Make sure to kinda look at her like she offended you by even asking. Any other answer......and I mean ANY other answer is just dead ass wrong and will impact your relationship for years. Even the right answer not given exactly like I've instructed will rain brimstone and fire down on you. I had a good friend that answered this wrong back in the early 90's.....he's yet to deer hunt and drink beer with me since because he's been too busy these last 20 years doing damage control for a poorly worded answer to this question. Last time I saw him he was wearing a fucking polo shirt.......that's right.....a fucking polo shirt and drinking beer from a glass. That's been a while back so I'm assuming these days he's drinking wine and going to art exhibits but that's a guess since he's no longer allowed to have contact with the outside world.
I'm married for just over 20 yrs....yes this question has come up many times through out it. And I boldly, truthfully tell her the truth.............
.........
:lmao: who am I kidding? Like Orion so well put......lie your ass off! Lie like your balls are on the line, because they are!!!! The truth in this one case will castrate you!
Sorry Jodi & KR you are women, of course you think you want to hear the truth but in reality all women want to hear exactly like Orion has instructed.
Orion you are an Oracle of Wisdom on this subject....... :worship:
Still married.Quote:

But now that I think about it, it has been a few years since I went deer hunting...
She did let me keep my rail buggy though!!
Sorry, Orion...I'm not a puppet lol. I tell women exactly what I think all the time. Some get pissed and some love it. They all know my personality so if you don't want my opinion don't ask me.
Im married...not for 20years...but im married. When she wants my opinion she gets it...we are pretty damn straight forward with each other. But that wont work with every relationship :goodluck:
Orion is right all except for polo shirts. Nothing wrong with polo shirts, they are as comfy as a t-shirt but you don't look like a trailor park POS.
Im a fan of the polo dress.........Quote:

Orion that which you posted may be your opinion. Idk. Honestly that was to long to read for a small opinion, and once deer hunting is mentioned, my brain leaves the conversation. :lol:
But as a woman.....
I would rather hear the truth. I'm not fat or really have any of those issues. And if an article of clothing looks bad on me, I want to know it before I go in public. Luckily for me, I also have my teenage daughter as an opinion. That kid is always brutally honest. :lol:
Because she can afford to be.Quote:

...that question is fundamentally a trap...
Never wore one before. Are they comfy?Quote:

Know how your brain left the conversation right after hearing deer hunting? That's exactly how we feel when we hear anything about your clothes, weight, the bitches at work, ect ect ect. The difference is you won't get a pop quiz about deer hunting from me later on to see if you were paying attention. :DQuote:

And yes actually, I would really rather always know the truth than sugar coated crap from my man and he knows this. :D
I would also rather hear the truth. Why ask otherwise? To be honest, I don't think my husband has the proper fashion sense to give me worthy advice on the subject as I think most men don't :shrug:Quote:

If I want to know if I look fat in something or if something looks good on me, I look in the mirror. A full length mirror tells me all I need to know ;)

And this wonderful smart beautiful woman just stole the show!!! :D
Thank you!!! :hug:
I tell my wife the brutal truth. Mainly the reason is that is my personality and there will be absolutely no sugar coating and the other reason is that my wife would be pissed if she went out and looked horrible when I said she looked good.
Women like us have to stick together. We're a rare breed ;) :hug:Quote:

LOL, I can tell who is married and who isn't.
First off, I only date women who aren't fat and ARE attractive. I've never had to tell her she's fat, always looks good to me, so it's easy to tell the truth! :D
You can tell who is whipped and who is not :lol:.
that may work for you a little while but eventually she's going to run into what I call the "great equalizer".........having kids. She will still want to look like she did before the kids came along but it's just not going to happen for the vast majority of women out there. That's where your ability to lie your ass off is really going to shine. I would start practicing now on smaller less important things like shoes and shit like that.Quote:

You know when she gets home from the hair place one of the first things she EXPECTS me to do is to tell her how good it looks even though she knows I hate it. She's setting me up to lie plain and simple. Problem was that I hadn't learned the things I know now so I was still in "honesty" mode like some of you guys. I'm in the garage working on the car and had Zach out there with me sleeping in his play pen. My wife pulls up and gets out of the car with hair that's cut the fuck off and she looks at me and smiles. I turned to Zach and said " Look Zach.....now you have 2 daddy's." Long ass rest of the day right there and the last of me being honest. That was 10 years ago and it still gets brought up from time to time.
:lol: I must still be in honesty mode...because my wife did the same thing with her hair and I told her that I like longer hair...Quote:

damn.......burn
That's so wrong, but also funny. He has balls...and big ones lol.Quote:

So, it would depend on the guy :yup:
God...I think I'll just stay single forever, women like older men.Quote:

I believe that to be true as well. Although, my Dad didn't think it to be as cute when we got into our teens. At that point he seemed to favor the do as I say not as I do theory :)Quote:
