Fabian Strategy

Method of getting your way in disputes with your girlfriend by appearing to give into her demands. The Fabian strategy derives it's name from the Roman general Quintus Fabius Maximus. He ran away, rather than engage in battle, he would retreat and retreat until the enemy grew fatigued and eventually made a mistake. Though I abhor it as a military strategy, it is the basis for all successful personal relationships.
My girlfriend wanted to re-paint the hallway so rather than say yes or no, I employed the Fabian Strategy and asked her if her sister had done anything crazy lately. She spent an hour ranting about that and totally forgot to ask me about the paint samples she brought home. She is sleeping peacefully and Fabian (me) has retreated to his den where he is drinking scotch and playing Snood.

Fabian

A Fabian is an awkward, anti-social person that tends to keep to himself. But once you get to know Fabian he is a great guy. He's the type of person that is cool just to chill with. If he's your friend he will go out of his way to help you out. He is a very charming and will use his whit to talk to the opposite sex and to get free things out of people. He is also a very intelligent person, he is good with electrical things and can master any task you put in front of him. Although Fabian is a great intelligent person he tends to be very cheap and a very bad speller. If you have a Fabian in your group you should consider yourself lucky because they are hard to come by.
