Wait until the mood passes before you do something you may regret.
If it really needs to be said or done, you’ll still want to when you’re in a good mood.

And:

When in doubt about the possible impact of your actions on a woman, doing nothing is best.

As for a woman’s moods, the same holds true. Behave as though she has just taken a
strange hallucinogenic drug. This drug makes her say crazy things, stuff she doesn’t even
mean, and it makes her subject to all sorts of distortions and ugly behaviors. The drug usually
wears off in a few hours, and you’ll be amazed at her turnaround. She’ll recant everything and
often apologize for what she said. She can’t control these little episodes any more than you can;
it’s just that she has them more often.


(Regarding PMS: You should watch out for a woman who is subject to too many wild
mood swings. She may even have a deeper disorder, or a need for medication during the time
preceding her period. The best advice is, unless you have Ghandi-like control over your ability
to react, you should totally avoid women who have extreme episodes of PMS related mood
swings. They are turbulent and damaging to any dating relationship, and need to regain control
of their condition before you can meet them on a level playing field.)


DON’T ANSWER A WOMAN’S QUESTIONS..................................................................................................


I’ve said this before in many ways, but you must be on your guard to avoid getting
caught in the trap of thinking that you must answer a woman when she asks you a question.
When she asks you a question, she’s not always looking for the answer to her question. More
often than not, she is asking you something else, but she has to lead into it with preliminary
questions. She won’t jump straight to the point. Here’s an example:


Todd is now spiraling out of control, his nosedive started by the confusion from Joanie’s
indirect line of questioning. Joanie was jealous, and she was working her way there, but Todd


Joanie: “Do you think I should bring a gift to Amy’s party?”
Todd: “Yeah, I think that would be what she’d expect. She brought you one to yours last week.”
Joanie: (sighing) “I don’t know. I think that sweater was ugly.”
Todd: “It wasn’t too bad. She meant well.”
Joanie: (rolls her eyes.) “That awful pink thing? You’re kidding? Besides, I think Amy is fake.”
Todd: “Fake? Huh?”
Joanie: “That was a crappy gift she gave me. And her voice is annoying.”
Todd: “I thought you liked Amy?”
Joanie: (glaring) “You sure liked her. I saw the way you two were talking most of the night.”
Todd: “Wait a minute, what do you mean? Are you saying I was going after her?”
Joanie: (crosses her arms) “Weren’t you?”
Todd: (visibly defensive) “No!”
