Transcript

A man can't be just friends with a woman. When a man tells you, "Oh, we're just friends," listen to the study they made. When a man is actually not attracted to a woman, there's certain parts of his brain that light up where he gets annoyed and can't sit with that person. Which means, one, a man is friends with a woman, what he's telling you is he's physically attracted to her. Not only that, when a man is in a fight with his woman and she looks less attractive that day, he's more prone to be meaner to her. So a man liking you is related to your physical attraction.
