"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.

I am 26 years old and I have only had one seriously relationship (4 years). I had little confidence growing up and still struggle due to a messed up child hood. I hardly dated in high school, but now I am being told by people that I am very good looking, hot, etc. I have a hard time letting that motivate me to go approach girls that I would consider 10's or 9's. I feel like I lost alot of time though not asking girls out back in the day because obviously they would have gone with me lol.

I went on a date with this girl yesterday that I met online (4th time we have hung out) and she basically tells me she is quite nervous around me because I am so hot. I think she feels like I am too good for her (she's a 6.5 or a 7). She goes on to say that when she first saw me she thought I would be ****y because I am "Very attractive", but I'm actually a really cool guy. Then goes on to say that I could get away with being ****y if I wanted to. Then said that she bets I have a bunch of girls trying to get with me.


Since I just find this girl mdoerately attractive but she and others (as I have been told) think I'm very hot...is there a good c hance t hat the girls I REALLY WANT to go out with will think the same? Do I need to always go for the girls that I find to be EXTREMELY ATTRACTIVE or just settle? I think in a way I kind of just settled with my ex and she said things like, "You can find someone you are more attracted to." THe girl I went on the date with yesterday also said that I am unapproachable because I am so hot and if she saw me she would probably just look away or act uninterested. I know I should feel better about myself because of all this information but I feel so inexperienced with asking girls out, going on dates, that I feel inadequate or something. Even though in the back of my mind I think I could get with some HB's. What to do?
 

"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.

I may be rude and I'm sorry. Get the **** off this forum with this crazy ass thread. Do you have a ****? How about a pair of balls? Do you have any male friends? Make some now. You have low self-esteem from growing up. You been around too many females or maybe not, but you havent been around any dudes. You are on some ***** **** and you may be gay. Or you just don't know how to act. What you wanna do is call all this advice seeking, low self esteem having ***** **** some bull ****. Cause seriously, unless your gay you have no reason to have low self esteem. Use this as an excuse for now, you didn't want to grow up so quickly so your staying a boy. Yep, your a 26 yr old boy.


Gay males think like girls. Girls thinking has alot of low self esteem in it.
Don't panic though, just grow up. You will be alright. BTW, your a spoiled ass brat... Fix that as well

I agree with the jist, although not the delivery.

Basically, if you're good looking to the point where its an issue for women and people repeatedly tell you this, you're dumb to think otherwise. I think in your case your looks never have been issues on your potential game.

I wouldn't let your looks factor into your outlook on this. I also wouldnt call it settling if you have not gotten girls in the past and you actually like the hb 7 you mentioned. If its really a concern, keep seeing HB 7 and try spitting game elsewhere.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

It's really just my issues with social anxiety that are my problem. I have this problem where I really think about th ings before they even happen. I think I might even approach people with the mindset that I am against them and likewise. I need to stop that lol. No, honestly HB7 is looking for a relationship and she isn't the kind of girl that I want that from. I don't think she will even f*ck until she knows shes got me. We have fooled aro und though. I know there are other girls out there that I would rather date...not sure if I want to keep her as back up or something lol.

There's actually this really cute girl that I saw working a drive thru today. My co worker drove us (she's a girl). So I was tellin her, "dang that girl is cute" but my friend/co-worker disagreed with me. I asked if she thought I could get with her and sh e said YES. So I want to go back up there when I'm driving. Just wondering how to go about asking if she wants to hang out.

I thought maybe I could just pull up, order my food and then when she gives it to me...hand her a piece of paper with my name and number and tell her, "Call me sometime." SOund good? SHould I do this without asking her name or for her phone number?

Rhino you just need an mindset adjustment. I suggest lifting weights if you aren't already.

So lifting weights will help with that? Anything else?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.
