You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
So, you are saying the equations dont work!Originally posted by Giovanni Casanova
It is an absolute wonder that anyone on this board ever gets laid.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Amen to that.You guys are taking this way to seriously. Way more seriously than I have, and I actually took the time to understand the math.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
hahahahahaIt is an absolute wonder that anyone on this board ever gets laid.
Non-Cooperative Game theory maybe, which is used in economics. The idea is to analyze choice rather than variables, it won john nash a nobel prize in the 90's. It is actually very applicable in social instances, especially with coopertive (wingman and the like) and non coopertive situations (a bunch of chumps ruining it for you).Originally posted by karusel
Sometimes you can prove what you want to prove without that actually being true. Relationships can't be explained by math, there are just much too many variables that you neglect in your calculations.

So, using your modulated theory, I ran a simulation on my associates supercomputer, and we came up with the constant for women:
W=01010011011010110110010101100101011101000010110000100000011100110110101101100101011001010111010000101100001000000111001101101011011001010110010101110100001011000010000001110011011010110110010101100101011101000010110000100000011100110110101101100101011001010111010000100001
Pardon the binary, but since man and women can be viewed as positive and negative entities interacting in a discontinuous, yet paridoxically enclosed environment, we felt it was justified.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
On a serious note a real computer geek would not fall for this being binary. Binary doesn't look like this.Originally posted by icepick

I found an equation of my own...
First, we all know that women take time and money.
Woman = Time * Money
The cliche says, 'time is money'
Time = Money
Therefore,
Woman = Money * Money = Money^2 (Or squared)
And because money is the root of all evil
Money = Sqrt(Evil)
Therefore,
Woman = (Sqrt(Evil))^2
And we are forced to conclude that
Woman = Evil
However, because we make the root squared we must give the absolute value
Woman = |evil|
Or Woman = Absolute Evil
Beat that b!tch!! *snaps fingers aggressively*

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
