About This Quote

This quote tells the story of one of the most famous seduction tricks of all time. You know the trick. You get a little bit turned on by something that your lover does which you’re not supposed to be. Maybe it’s the way he looks at you, maybe it’s the way he talks to you or maybe it’s just a moment that will never happen again.

In any case, as soon as he realizes you don’t pay attention to these things, he gets upset and says something hurtful to make you feel bad. As you sit there feeling sorry for yourself, he gives you a compliment so that you feel better about yourself and everything is magically fine again.
