"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

This girl tells me she purposefully manipulates men by being nice and then mean to them (her words). how does don juan react to this?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

"You mean manipulate BOYS" and then walk away.A dj doesn't care because he is in control and what this chick is telling you is yet another mind trick.

Well a Don juan would already know that this chick is trying to play games and he would be one step ahead of her manipulating her mind and getting what he wants out of her.

A woman told me something like this the other night. I nonchalantly told her "Yeah, this isn't news. Most guys know this and the ones that don't get what they deserve. Women do this for amusement when they're bored." She looked at me wide eyed and in shock, then dropped her head and agreed. I just smiled and and whispered in her ear "Don't worry, I won't bore you." :up:

Don't let women trip you up with things like this especially when you know what they're up to. Set yourself apart from the rest while letting her know where you stand and what you won't accept.

Hmm I like that 'I won't bore you' idea. Don't mind if I use it? :p
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

This shouldn't be a problem to guys that know what they want. When you know what type of woman you want in terms of looks/personality, it's pretty easy.

I don't mind if a woman tries to manipulate me to fit within her agenda, however she should know that her manipulation should correlate with how much she is going to reward me. My personal motto is "What am I gonna get out of it as well?"

By the way, when a girl shows care about you. Genuine care...talking...doing things for you. She is a good partner for you

Most guys get upset when they are disrespected. What I'm learning to do is be direct, to the point, and refuse to put up with B.S. Sometimes it's difficult to not let some anger show... we are human after all. I figure if I showed a little anger, but still refused to put up with B.S., in the long run I come out ahead.
