The door in the face technique is awesome

[Vynith]

So basically what it is is a psychological technique where by you initially make an absurd request and when they say no you hit them with a smaller request (the one you initially wanted anyway)

I used this tactic on my sister recently.

I asked my sister if I could have some of her precooked bacon.

I said sis can I have 3 slices of your bacon.

she said no

so I said oh can I just have 1 slice then.

she said yes.

moral of the story - door in the face technique.

muahahhaahha.

it was delicious btw.

you are right, which is why things are usually negotiated when trying to get what you want but your explanation is just funny

Careful... next time she'll ask for your whole wallet, then settle for $20.

Just tried it
I approached two girls, tried the prettier one, she said she was not interested
then I tried the second one
she said fuck off

sad

You was too direct you need to be more subtle next time

The bacon had a much higher success rate.
