"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

Doing (a few) nice things is great(opening doors, pulling out a chair,saying God bless you,etc) being nice in every way becomes nauseous. How many times have we heard the old cliche' NICE GUYS FINISH LAST......hey dude.......the reason they say it all the time, it's because it is often true!. Being nice all the time loosely translates to BORING/PREDICTABLE.

Nice guys are rarely interesting and compensate for this trait by paying for or trying to impress the ladies. Nice guys are cowards and almost never initiate the first move, say something improper, do something that does not sit well with others or themselves. Nice guys are emotional when it comes to dating, sex, relationships, first dates, breaking up. Ever hear girls say the words "he was nice, it was nice,we had a nice time, it was nice to meet you, etc" TRANSLATION-there was very little sparks, I did not feel any sexual attraction, I got a free drink/meal, I was so fricken bored).

A woman's definition of nice contains a ton of other traits which evoke attraction, and has the word nice tacked on the end. So you can either change your frame of what nice means or you can stop being so nice. Either way I am willing to bet you will start to experience a creative change in your encounters with the ladies.

My advice......don't always be so nice!

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I don't think having manners has been given a bad rap over the years for a myriad or reasons including being labeled a nice guy and fear of retaliation from feminazis.

being warm and nice is perfectly fine.... so long as you can be equally cold and distant.

what that means is, personality lies in the conflict of emotions. none of us are happy and giddy 100% of the time, yet when we walk up to a woman, smiling for no reason, laughing at our own bad jokes, what do we look like? one-dimensional bobbleheads.

But show a woman warmth when she tells a funny joke, or show assertiveness when you ask her a question... now you're a confident human being, and she's attracted.
 

"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.

Yea but you can take it the other way, which is just constantly being a pr.ick, which is almost as bad. What I do, is tease the girl quite a lot in the first few minutes of meeting her....then I'll drop a genuine compliment after I have some rapport...don't think that you can't tell a girl she's beautiful oo whatever...said with the right frame, this sorta compliment will be money.

The correct mindset for complimenting a girl, imo isthe same way that you'd compliment a friend....you're saying it just for the sake of saying it, not to try to impress or suck up to them....i.e. its a GENUINE compliment.

The key is not to be a 'nice guy'....be a tease/flirt/challenge and occasionally say a nice thing or two.
