Have You Ever Talked Someone OUT of Betting?

[FadeThePublic]

Tony I think the difference is you weren't trying to convince him.

You just told him the truth of your own position.

"I don't fully understand it after twelve years."

No argument. No case. Just honest admission of where you actually are.

That's harder to dismiss than a warning.

 

[TaffyTipster]

Because a warning can be wrong.

But someone admitting they don't have it figured out after twelve years is just... information.

Hard to argue with.

This is making me think about why my conversation with my sister worked.

I didn't warn her.

I told her I was embarrassed about a number.

Not "this is bad and here's why."

Just "I'm embarrassed."

Personal. Not a case. Just a feeling.

Maybe that's the version that sometimes gets through.

Princess and Tony both describing the same thing from different angles.

Not argument. Not evidence.

Honest personal admission with no agenda attached.

The moment you try to convince someone you've already lost.

The moment you just tell them where you actually are you might have a chance.
