"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Being in love: for AFCs or for alpha men?

Is being in love a big AFC mistake, or is just a critical component that needs to be there in a relationship with a girl? What do u think?
 

"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.

First, do yourself a favor and stop separating the world into "AFCs" and "Alpha men". Next, stop thinking that being successful with women means not having feelings.

It's NEVER about what you feel. Most of the time you can't change that. It's what you do about it.

I think this AFC/Alpha male thing is being blown way out of hand.

AFC = CHODE, YOU HAVE EMOTIONS

Alpha Male = NEVER COMPROMISE, BEAT YOUR GIRL TO SHOW DOMINANCE


Well not exactly, but you get the idea. Dude, it's totally fine to be in love with a girl that you're in a serious relationship with, if you are really an "alpha male" and not pretending to be an alpha (and I use the term alpha male loosely, I'd honestly rather just say "not a chode/pushover" or "confident guy" because calling someone an alpha male nowadays just screams tool in my opinion) there is nothing wrong with making yourself vulnerable by having affectionate feelings towards a girl you're seeing. You can still have the same "alpha" qualities you had before and still be in love with a girl, it doesnt make you any less of a man.

No that would be BETA behaviour. Alpha is the guy in charge, does the guy in charge always beat the crap out of his subordinates?

Of course not. In fact, I don't think it ever happens.

As long as you love yourself first, you can love anything you want after that.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

Best answer so far... W/e someone might be, Alpha male, AFC, blinded, in a wheelchair, waiter, life guard, W/E you can think of, have feelings which cannot be controled! Even if someone say that doesn't have feelings, it's a lie! He just pretends not to have or THINKS he doesn't have (which is a psycological problem).

I can't recall if it was in this web site that I read that love is coming from nature and it's given to human so that he will stay with his mate, and protect him/her for 7 months till they have their baby (don't know why 7 and not 9 though)! It sounds pretty logical to me!

Even an Alpha can fall in love for someone!
