You poor bastard, you stepped right into a classic trap.
Even if they do say they want the truth about that stuff,
they don't want to hear it about themselves.
And even now some ladies will tell you this is the more "honest" way.
Don't believe them, they don't know themselves.
Oh so many men, have fallen for that one.
Is it fair? no.
Is it reality? yes
Take her out on a nice long romantic dinner,
and start telling her again, all those nice things that are special about her that you were saying in the first place.
I hope you learned a lesson, because I certainly haven't yet.
I still fall for that one to this day.
