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.
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.
Rom, when a woman behaves like she does, she is telling you a lot about how she sees you, and what she thinks of you ..Romjuan said:thought i would give u guys an update. past 3 days ive been coming home at 11pm. shes usually in bed by then so we havnt talked much. soon as i get in bed she cuddles a bit then falls asleep. im sure she knows im u to something becuz of the change on my habit. last nite i was out drinkn with some buddies staying out til 1am. this morning we both got up same tikme to go to work and she seemed bit angry and frustrated. asked her if she wantd to go to the comedy improv toite and she quikcly relied "/no!". dont know if this is good but atleast shes seeing a different side and non needy.
Are you addicted to her or something ? She does not like you and is angry because her influence is diminishing. You can be more than a slave to her needs.Romjuan said:she quikcly relied "/no!".
You do it to yourself, man. And the quote above proves it. She is not your problem, YOU are your problem. You tell her you'll walk away if she doesn't change but you don't back it up. It's like telling yourself: "I'm gonna go wake up early tomorrow and work out in the gym!" Then the next day, you stay in bed and do nothing. So if your body looks like ****, it's your own fault, you didn't follow through on your decision to work out. Same goes for the relationship trouble: You tell yourself: "I'm gonna walk away if she doesn't change!" Then when she doesn't change, you just stay with her. SO if you're unhappy in this relationship, it's your own fault!Romjuan said:Everytime i have a serious discusion about how I want change from her and if she doesnt Ill walk away, she says "ill try". but doesnt.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
First of all, you're too young to be posting on this forum which is why your post is deleted. However, this was a good question, so I'll elaborate.dj_china said:how does this play into the dominance theme?
by allowing her to initiate sex every time isn't she being the dominant one?
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
You have no self-control or free will, just a craving for sex that has taken over your brain. In that state you are unaware of the alternatives - it's like eating canned food all life when there is fresh meat in the shop outside. Do you want to remain that way ?Romjuan said:she seems to be back to her old ways. ... any comments?
It seems your girl has some issues.Romjuan said:so things lookd like they were defintly workin. the whole last week i came home around 11pm every nite. i could tell it was working bcuz her demeanor was different. she would become more affectionate when she saw me. then saturday roled around and she asked me to stay in with her and hang out with me. ishould have went out but instead we hung out and clicked. the next day we went out in a group and she talked to my friend aand i guess her issues were cleared up after their talk. now in this present week i have been doing the same thing but she seems to be back to her old ways. little *****y and to herself. i have a feeling its becuse i stayed in with her and she sees this new frame as an act. any comments?
The less aware you are of the games, the more power they have over you. Ignore how frames get set, how you can step into one without knowing it, how to detect and question frames, and you will only doom yourself - Doom yourself to the ignorance of not being able to understand people and where others are coming from. The awareness that allows us to detect a frame game in process puts into our hands the power to take back the power and determine if we want to play these games, or refuse them outright.
We cannot be frameless or gameless, someone always sets the frame. And, WHOEVER SETS THE FRAME WILL EXERCISE THE MOST INFLUENCE. If you do not know the frame games at work in your life or how to play them, then you can count on the following result>>>YOU WILL BE PLAYED! You will become a puppet to the games. What games are you playing? The "I need you baby"?
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
