Tanya:
Hey! That looks good on you! You should try it on.
Janet:

thanks, I‘m
just looking.
Tanya
: Go on, try it on. I can tell it suits you.
Janet:
You seem to want me to buy something. And I
‘
m not sure I want to buy anything at all.
Tanya:
Well, yes .I
‘
m pretty sure you want to buy something.
Janet:
How do you know?
Tanya:
Well,
it‘s
my job to know what women want to wear.
Janet:
How do you know what I want to wear?
Tanya:
I can just tell. Most women don
‘
t hold things up like that unless they know they want to
buy it, but either they haven
‘
t got the money or they are nervous about impulse buying.
Janet:
So what type of Tanya am I then?
Tanya:
No money.

Yeah! You are right, but how do you know?

If you were nervous about impulse
