I´m just not sending out the right vibe lately. Perhaps the fact that I wear stained sweatpants and free T-shirts is holding me back. I just can´t seem to get back into the intelligent-slut-for-hire outfits that lure men even shoes with laces evade me. Plus my hair is Fran Lebowitz-esque. I think my eyes are getting closer together. I don´t know. Suzanne Finnamore
About This Quote

The lyrics to the 1970s song “I´m Just Not That Into You” give a great example of how we can use our bodies and behaviors to send out the correct “vibe.” The song is about a woman who is unsure of her true feelings for a man and does not want to risk rejection. She avoids giving him signals that she feels interested in him, but he is able to tell that she doesn’t want to be with him by reading her body language and noticing other ways she acts differently than the other women he has been with. Given current day society, this woman can be unsure whether or not she is interested in someone and might even make up reasons why she isn’t attracted to them. However, while we cannot read minds we can read body language and we can make inferences about people’s feelings based on their behavior. When someone shows themselves to be evasive, guarded, or inconsiderate you can be confident in assuming that they are not interested in you.
