"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.

Just came across this film last night, does anyone remember it? It's from 1981, I think I may have rented it years ago but anyway... William Hurt was mesmerizing, I think this may have been his BEST performance!

You guys talk about cold approach? Here's a clip of him (as Ned Racine) initially approaching Matty Walker (Kathleen Turner)... I think his delivery is what makes it (and him) so mesmerizing though. You be the judge....

"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.

Not too shabby, except for offering to buy her something

I'm not saying "Don't buy her something small early on". Offering to do so verbally often comes across weak and desperate
Sometimes it can but certainly not in the way Ned did. And the way he sugued into buying the out-of-town husband a drink too and the rest of it?

Perfect! I watched the movie three times already since renting it two nights ago. Lol

I may have to purchase it. It was that good and I've been getting bored with most films lately.

It's a remake of a old film noir Double Indemnity which I've never seen and will have to stream that one too.

William Hurt was mesmerizing though, what a great actor. I'm gonna have to check out his other films from the 80s.

"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.

This type of suave banter in my opinion would rarely work in the real world. From experience you need a real friendly, friendship brotherly type of vibe as if you knew her and ‘ been there, done that’ with her. Just act real comfortable and the sparks are going to fly.
