Unfortunately, the most confident man and strong male role model in my life is her BIL. (tricky situation there).


I have read where some guys choose a fictious character, either in a movie or novel.

From a WW perspective...she knows shes lying right? I mean, what in the world... It is just the way of the WW...


Absolutely. She knows she's lying, playing you, manipulating, cheating, etc.

It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
