Do These Pants Make My ASS Look Big?

By
Real Estate Agent

Do these pants make my ass look big?  Any guy who has ever been involved with a woman has at one time or another gotten this question.  What to do, what to say?  Should you tell the truth?  Or should you lie?  Lets look at the options.  

You could say.....no honey, those pants dont make your ass look big.  That is ok if that is the truth.....but what if she does not believe you?  Then she will feel that you are only trying to pacify her. 

You could say.....yes honey, those jeans make your ass look big.....and that big rump shaker is one of the reasons why I love you so much.    That may or may not work either.

Every day as a real estate consultant, I am asked questions equally as difficult.  Do you think this is a nice neighborhood?  Would you move here if you were me?  Do you think the neighbor's dog will be a problem? 

Usually I stick to the truth unless the question involves something that I am bound by law not to answer.  I also have to remember, I am not  my clients.  What I mean by that is...we all have different tastes.  I have walked into a house and thought to myself, this house is great......the clients on the other hand hated it.

So the next time you someone asks you a difficult question.....think twice and answer once?  Remember, the truth always works.  It may be hard for your clients to hear, but they may thank you for it later.

Oh by the way:  Honey you look wonderful in those jeans :)

Have a great day

Hey Leander, you know the question has a "right" answer and a "wrong" answer -- careful there -- we'd like to see you continue to post on AR.  ~Evelyn

You should lie if it is about a fat question. Tell the truth on most of the others. Women hate for men to think they are fat even if they truly are.

Good post Leander! I think as good sales people, our responsibility to our client is to really understand what they do want, so that our opinion are muted by what they actaully like or dislike. If we ask all the questions, based on a list of things that we need to know about them, then when it comes time to do the showing, we will have assisted them in achieving the greatest objective of all. The clients needs always come first.....btw that includes our beautiful wives too. :)

It's one thing to tell your clients the truth... they can handle it.  That is not always the case with your wife...

Just for the record, the next time a woman asks if her ass looks big, do NOT say, "Honey, I love you just the way you are!"

WE KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!!!!!

Morning Leander,

Love the post, As you know from reading me, the truth is the only way I do business. However this tough question would pull hard on the diplomacy side. Some things just aren't easy and others don't get easier.

Have a great weekend.

I agree, it is best to lie about fat.  Everything else you should tell the truth.

Everyone,

Thank you for your comments.  I guess I should carefully answer my wife and truthfully answer my client.  So far, I have done pretty well with both.

Have a  great day
