As I watch my orange tabby do backflips.
Anyway.
So Becca and Trevor go on the first date and there's some really important couple make or break moments.
There was a make or break moment early on.
One of the tips I gave him for being man to woman is as men, it's our jobs to lead a date to a good place.
It's like leading a dance.
And early on in the date, there was a point where she was telling a fairly long story that just wasn't really helping the date, like a two or three or four minute story about, I don't know, shopping, kind of a girly, a girl, woman topic.
There's nothing wrong with those topics, but he listened for two or three or four minutes and realized, oh my gosh, I'm not being honest with her.
This story is boring.
So he, he felt nervous about this, but he, he basically, he jumped in and interrupted her and said with a smile on his face, he said, Hey, I gotta be honest with you.
I've, I've totally lost interest in that story.
Um,
I almost fell asleep.
But listen to what happened to me today.
And he tells a story about something that happened to him that day.
He told me that she gave him this look.
She cocked her head and gave him a look as if to say, did you just shush me and take over the conversation?
But the thing is, the crazy thing is, is she was doing it more, the look was a sense of respect, right?
not how dare you interrupt me.
Now, by the way, the lesson here is not to interrupt women and cut them off.
