Default How do you get your own way?

are you good at persuading people to do what you want?

What methods do you use to get your own way?

Let's see your best tactics.
I casually ask for what I want then say oh its OK it doesn't matter. Guaranteed to work within roughly half an hour. Xx

I state my case and if it’s unsuccessful I just go quiet .... sometimes for days ..

I use this strategy with the wife and in work situations.


It helps that I’m happy with my own company

I learnt my lesson years ago on that one , i've had more than my fair share of master manipulators ! Friends and past partners and its not a good trait if you want to keep people ~ they will see through you eventually and disappear .

it's not something i really think about. At work we arrive at decisions by reasoned argument and consensus. We have an odd number of decision makers, so it's never a tie

In home life, if one or other of us is firmly of a viewpoint then we go with that, i don't think we have ever strongly disagreed at the same time

Rhetorical questions are always the way for everything

Also weirdly, I feel like acting like you're less bothered about something always helps too
