I was speaking with a woman of considerable savviness in matters of male-female socializing. I wanted to know how to deal with a situation that required tip-toeing the line between candor and deceit. This is the advice she gave me.<\/p>\n

ME: So this girl that I think is cute asks me if the girl she saw me with is my girlfriend. I don’t want to say yes and risk blowing my chances out of the water. I don’t want to say no, either, because I know women are more attracted to men when those men are getting love from other women. And a “no” would have been a lie, anyhow. So I was thinking about saying something close to the truth that also leaves the door open for continued flirting and possible future hooking up. Something along the lines of, “Well, we’re going through a rough patch now. Hard to say how it will turn out. We’re discussing a trial separation.”<\/p>\n

SMART GIRL: Ugh, no.<\/p>\n

ME: Why?<\/p>\n

SMART GIRL: Too much explaining. By the time you’re finished with that I’m thinking “Wow, sorry I asked!”<\/p>\n

ME: You got something better?<\/p>\n

SMART GIRL: Just say, “It’s complicated.”<\/p>\n

ME: “It’s complicated.” And that’s it?<\/p>\n

SMART GIRL: That’s all you need. When a girl hears “it’s complicated”, she gets inside her head guessing about what you mean. That’s the place you want her to be if you want a shot with her.<\/p>\n

ME: What if she follows up by asking me what I mean?<\/p>\n

SMART GIRL: She won’t. Most girls understand that “it’s complicated” is code for “don’t ask me any more questions about it”. And you know girls love mystery, so they’re not going to ruin a good mystery by trying to solve it.<\/p>\n

~~~<\/p>\n

So there you go gentlemen. “It’s complicated.” Commit it to memory and deploy liberally. With some field practice, I’ve discovered that “it’s complicated” can serve as a useful stand-in for all sorts of scenarios you may find yourself in with a girl. It’s a go-to answer for all kinds of questions, not just the ones pertaining to your relationship status.<\/p>\n

GIRL: So are you dating anyone right now?<\/p>\n

YOU: It’s complicated.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

GIRL: Just how many girls have you been with?<\/p>\n

YOU: It’s complicated.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

GIRL: What are you looking for<\/a>?<\/p>\n

YOU: It’s complicated.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

GIRL: Will you buy me a drink?<\/p>\n

YOU: It’s complicated.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

GIRL: You’re not going to try to stick it in my ass tonight, are you?<\/p>\n

YOU: It’s complicated.<\/p>\n

GIRL: *swoon*<\/p>\n
