Women con men. Have you gotten it?

guys do you see all women as a con after you go through a couple?

Both men and women "con" each other in the sense that directness is always punished.

Dating and relationships is an exchange of goods of approximated value and if you outright state what you have on offer and what you're seeking, you end up getting a less than favourable rate of exchange.

Perhaps a bit crass in explanation, but when you boil it down, everything in life is a trade. What do you have, what do you want, and what are you willing to pay for it; whether it's time, attention, affection, emotional support, resources, exclusivity, or sex.

Indirect negotiations is par for the course in dating and relationships.

And men con women, or at least they try. Men like to think they're so clever.

Bless them.

Not at all. I've dated a number of women and never experienced this.

Not all, but most. Let's just say there is a learning curve with guys. And at some point he has see every trick that's in a woman's bag. And the women wary men pick up on it very fast.
