Manipulation News, Videos, Reviews and Gossip - Lifehacker On some level I think you're right. In order for a golddigger to be sucessful nine times out of ten she finds a man who knows exactly what she's after and is equally shallow and okay with it. You can't fake being in love with someone for more than a few months unless you're a sociopath. Most of these things blow up in a year, and the guy may be a little worse for wear but he won't fall for a golddigger again. In face, most golddiggers these days use dating sites set up for wealthy men who are specifically looking for a golddigger either because they want a trophy wife or they work such long hours they can't put in enough effort for a legitimate relationship. I know how these things work; I've worked with a lot of "model/actress" types who play this game. And if the man in this relationship really believes the gold digger is into him and not just with him for his money, do your feelings on the situation remain the same? Since rich = smart, there's no chance of him being deceived.
Fallacy A fallacy is the use of poor, or invalid, reasoning for the construction of an argument.[1][2] A fallacious argument may be deceptive by appearing to be better than it really is. Some fallacies are committed intentionally to manipulate or persuade by deception, while others are committed unintentionally due to carelessness or ignorance. Fallacies are commonly divided into "formal" and "informal". A formal fallacy can be expressed neatly in a standard system of logic, such as propositional logic,[1] while an informal fallacy originates in an error in reasoning other than an improper logical form.[3] Arguments containing informal fallacies may be formally valid, but still fallacious.[4] Formal fallacy[edit] Main article: Formal fallacy A formal fallacy is a common error of thinking that can neatly be expressed in standard system of logic.[1] An argument that is formally fallacious is rendered invalid due to a flaw in its logical structure.

8 Ways to be UBER Charismatic What did JFK, Marilyn Monroe and Hitler all have in common? They were all renowned charismatics that lit up every room they entered. You’ve most likely met one of these kinds before. The guy/girl at the party. They possess some strange quality that causes them to be liked by everyone and constantly at the center of attention. Robert Greene studied these people and detailed the methods one can use to become a charismatic in his book “The Art of Seduction.” Purpose Pick a cause, a goal, a vision and live it. Mystery Become mysterious (like Bruce Wayne) by being unpredictable. Saintliness Think Gandhi. Eloquence Speak slowly and hypnotically, with random pauses if needed. Theatricality Be larger than life. Danger/Spontaneity Radiate dangerous, rebellious sexuality. Vulnerability Have a soft side and love your followers. Magnetism Develop a piercing gaze. DO NOT COMMENT.
Easily embarrassed? Study finds people will trust you more If tripping in public or mistaking an overweight woman for a mother-to-be leaves you red-faced, don’t feel bad. A new study from the University of California, Berkeley, suggests that people who are easily embarrassed are also more trustworthy, and more generous. In short, embarrassment can be a good thing. Psychologist Dacher Keltner, a coauthor of the study, demonstrates a typical gesture of embarrassment “Embarrassment is one emotional signature of a person to whom you can entrust valuable resources. Not only are the UC Berkeley findings useful for people seeking cooperative and reliable team members and business partners, but they also make for helpful dating advice. “Moderate levels of embarrassment are signs of virtue,” said Matthew Feinberg, a doctoral student in psychology at UC Berkeley and lead author of the paper. The college students also participated in the “Dictator Game,” which is used in economics research to measure altruism.

Myers, which describes the insights into the psychological type model originally developed by C.G. Jung as adapted and embodied in the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality test. The book explains the many practical applications of this typological model [1] using four categories of psychological type differences - Extraversion / Introversion; Sensing / Intuition; Thinking / Feeling; Judging / Perceiving. The book also suggests how different combinations of these characteristics tend to influence the ways people perceive the world and how they both respond to and interact with it. Type tables show how type preferences tend to correlate with occupational interests. Every year over 2.5 million people take the MBTI assessment and it has become the most widely used personality questionnaire in history.[1] Over 150,000 copies of Gifts Differing have been sold.[1] See also[edit]
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Model of personality types A chart with descriptions of each Myers–Briggs personality type and the four dichotomies central to the theory. In personality typology, the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an introspective self-report questionnaire indicating differing psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. The test attempts to assign a value to each of four categories: introversion or extraversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving. One letter from each category is taken to produce a four-letter test result, such as "INTP" or "ESFJ".[2][3] The MBTI was constructed by two Americans: Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers, who were inspired by the book Psychological Types by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. History[edit] Briggs began her research into personality in 1917. Myers' work attracted the attention of Henry Chauncey, head of the Educational Testing Service. Format and administration[edit]
INTP Originally published in Wholeness Lies WithinCopyright © 1986-2002, Terence Duniho; © 2002-2010, Fergus Duniho The following description was written by my father and may reflect some of his personal experience with me, but he also spent plenty of time gaining firsthand knowledge of all the types through type conferences and workshops, and I was by no means the only member of my type known to him. During the mid 20th century, Carl Jung identified eight personality types and divided them into sixteen subtypes. My type is Introverted Thinker [Ti], and my subtype relies on Extraverted Intuition [Ne] as an auxiliary function. Introversion Rather than beginning with proof positive that this is my type, I will work up to it. The psychologist Hans Eyesenck gave a physiological model for understanding introversion vs. extraversion. In terms of Jungian types, an introvert is someone whose dominant function is introverted.

Crafter (role variant) Crafters are tactical operators, concrete in speech and utilitarian in action. In social situations, they are directive and reserved.[2] Crafters are masters at using tools of every type—artistic, technological, martial. Although they are introverts, they are authoritarian in their interactions with others and can be forceful at influencing people. They focus on accomplishing tasks efficiently and skillfully. To master the tool of their interest, Crafters require a certain degree of seclusion in which to practice. The result is often a virtuosity that other types find difficult to match.[1] For illustrative purposes, Keirsey and his son, David M.
