How to Say No! |
Seems like it should be easy to "just say no" but for most women it's not that simple. We don't want to hurt anyone feelings or come across as rude. But saying No incorrectly will leave an opening for a rebuttal.
| No, I don't have time right now |
Rebuttal: Well how about later? |
| I can't, I'm waiting for someone. |
Rebuttal: Well I'll wait with you. |
|
|
| How should you say "No." |
| Be short, concise and make it about You, not about them. |
|
No. Thank you. |
| |
I don't want to talk to you. |
| |
I don't like it when anyone stands so close to me. |
| |
Women don't like it when Men do that. |
Believe it or not saying no correctly and effectively can take practice. If you're used to making excuses, as most women are, practice role playing with other girlfriends. If your practice partner gives you an excuse, counter act her excuse until she follows the rules on saying No. Stop each other when you slip up. Then practice saying No effectively in all aspects of your daily activities. |
| Remember: You have a right not to talk to someone if you don't want to. |

In each
course, students will learn practical techniques for defending
themselves in real-life situations. While these are not martial
arts courses, the methods are based upon martial arts techniques.
Instructors practice techniques with students
and construct circumstances during class in which to practice
the learned techniques. Students are also encouraged to discuss
situations and circumstances with the class to broaden the
scope of learning techniques.
