Reverse Psychology (Part 1/2)
We all use reverse psychology for little situations, like "Want to come to subway?" "No" "Fine, don't have a delicious, mouth watering sandwhich" "All right, fine, i'm coming" "Nah, I don't want you to come" "No, I really want to go now!" "Fine, only because you want to."
If you use reverse pschology, you have to use your best acting skills, otherwise your 'victim' won't buy it and than you look like an idiot. Reverse psychology is simply a Bluff. Why? well, because when you say "Fine, don't have a delicious, mouth watering sandwhich", you're hoping the person will be tempted to go, perhaps because you made the person hungry, or the person doesn't like it when he/she gets ordered around, so does the exact oppisite or whatever the reason. You just hope they'll take the bait. Or it's a failure, and they say "OK." You could continue using reverse psychology, but I say if it doesn't work the first time, it's not going to work the second time, nor the third, and you'll just bring your ego down, bit by bit.
