Bachelorette contender Tino Franco’s true desire

If you watched the Bachelorette last night, there was a very revealing moment on the show when Rachel revealed to Tino that he was the only one left.  Did you catch it?

I was trying to find a video clip of that moment and can’t seem to locate one online. If you find one, please do share a link!

If you watched that reveal moment between Rachel and Tino, you may have had a niggle that something wasn’t right.

The internet is a buzz with the fact that Tino’s face was flat–utterly emotionless.  They are 100% correct in that assessment.  It stood out.

But if you were paying close attention, you would have caught Tino’s smile utterly dropping off his face!

It was most pronounced if you watched the right side of his face. It slipped off!! He was NOT happy to hear he was the last one standing.

How gutting that was to watch!

I imagined seeing that if I were Rachel. Rachel didn’t seem to register it, sadly.

Tino seemed to enjoy Rachel and was truly happy around her many times as seen in the photo above. That was genuine.

But it appears, from that slip of the smile, Tino actually wanted to win the contest, rather than win Rachel and propose!

Ouch!!

So it wasn’t a surprise they didn’t last.

I don’t know what happened with the cheating incident, but you have to question, could that have been a passive aggressive move to dump Rachel because he wasn’t invested in her? It certainly can’t be ruled out.

Amber Heard on the Stand

When I watch Amber Heard in these segments, I see true and authentic raw emotions.

Emotions that you do not and cannot fake when telling a lie.

To cognitively balance telling a lie and managing to make these expressions accurately and in perfect timing to her verbal message–that’s impossible to do. This only happens when we truly experience a situation.

Heard expresses disgust repeatedly in a very short period of time which is supportive of the truth and the situation she has described.

If you encountered this woman making this expression, what would you think she is conveying to you? How would you address her here?

Many thanks to M.A. for sending me some facial expressions for Expression of the Day!

Fascinating Study of Human Behavior: Darryl Clinton

Darryl Clinton is a fascinating person to watch in the study of human behavior. Darryl stayed behind to protect his friend’s houses where he resided as Kilauea erupted. He faced instant death as lava bombs were hurled from the volcano towards these homes.  You have to watch the video above.  These lava bombs broke through the roof, windows and other fixtures on his friend’s property. They started fires that threatened to take their home. And they could have taken Darryl at any moment.

If I were to show you a photo of Darryl, you would like see that he is unique, wouldn’t you?

There aren’t a lot of men who look like Darryl, are there?

By this alone, we can speculate that he likely has a unique personality, too. And in the video above, we can verify that by what he is doing–staying behind to protect other people’s homes. Whether you agree with it or not, Darryl is unique without question. I get a sense not much scares Darryl. He has likely always felt little to no fear. It’s just his make-up.

In the video, Darryl shows concern and stress, but not fear.  He is amazingly calm.

He is utterly mind-blowing to me.  Don’t believe this is Darryl’s normal behavior?  Watch him after he unfortunately got injured by a bowling ball sized lava bomb the next day after this CNN left. It seriously injured his leg.  His demeanor is no different after his serious injury, which will have huge effects on his life.

I know I wouldn’t stick around for any house with lava bombs hurling in the air and landing all around me.  Maybe feeling fear isn’t a bad thing after all? I suspect Darryl really wanted to be a hero, and it cost him dearly.

The Evasive Betsy DeVos: A Great Study


If video doesn’t work for you above, click here.

If you caught CBS 60 Minutes this weekend, you got to watch the U.S. Secretary on Education, Betsy DeVos, answer pointed questions. She was a fascinating study in human behavior!

DeVos is highly skilled at the “social” or shall we say “fake” smile. She pulls it off with ease and I no doubt that many people looking at her smile would say she is sincere. Can you see that?

She’s also highly skilled at saying what she wants you to hear–directly avoiding answering questions of her.

This is a highly manipulative technique.

When people chose not to answer questions directly, that should be a huge red flag for you. When people are manipulative to this degree, I say WOW– take notice!

What good comes of this behavior?  I say that seriously.

People who are honest are happy to answer questions and talk about all facets of a situation.

Liars, however, will try to direct you to only what they want to talk about, which will never benefit you.  Only them.

Did you find this interview interesting?
