I know some people are too polite to take what is offered, or are only interested in something if it's not in front of them - so one morning I made pancakes with some roomates, and one suggested I leave some for my sister who was showing up later. So I hid her pancake in the microwave, and when she showed up and saw evidence of pancakes said "I want pancakes!" if I had handed her a plate when she walked in she would have said "no thanks".

so after she declared her position, I pulled out the hidden plate of pancakes and she ate them and my roomates loved it. I've done this with other things I wanted to give her as well, like jewelry.

this also works when you offer somebody some food and they say "no thanks" but they really do want it so you say "I'm just going to throw it away then" and then they take it.

I'm a terrible liar but I can bend the truth like nobody's business.
