Okay. Mavis nodded decisively. Then you tear it down. You don't take no for an answer. You nag and you pick and you stick until it pops out of him. Whatever it is. Girls are good at this, Dallas. I'm not good at being a girl. Sure you are. You're your own kind of girl. Think of it as kicking his ass until he cracks.
Mavis expresses her determination and assertiveness, suggesting that persistence is key in getting someone to reveal their feelings or secrets. She emphatically advises not to accept reluctance, indicating that persistence, in a way, is akin to a form of tough love or encouragement. Mavis believes that this approach is a strength, particularly expressing that girls excel in those kinds of interactions.

The conversation highlights the importance of resilience in personal relationships and the notion that everyone has their own style, which can lead to meaningful connections, regardless of traditional gender roles.
