I just meant maybe you could set here and drink one of em with me. He squinted at her. You ever notice how women have trouble takin no for a answer? I think itstarts about age three. What about men? They get used to it. They better.

About This Quote

This quote from the tv show "The Office" talks about how men tend to be more confident in their abilities to say no. I think that this is also true in the world of dating. Men get used to saying no to women, because they get rejected all the time. Women on the other hand are not used to saying no.

They often get rejected, but they don't know how to take it or deal with it. A lot of times they try to get closer to the man afterwards, even if he didn't want anything serious at all. He said no? Okay, let's see if we can make it work somehow.

If he says yes, then great! If he says no, fine! We will try something else.
