catch, imagine the HB9 or HB10 as your grandmother or imagine the chick being green (anything to ease yourself or just make yourself kinda think eew for a second). Imagine her in the ugliest form possible. Then approach. 
"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.
Bootcamp Week#2: Time To Up the Ante...

"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.

Remember:
She's just a girl. She's not as hot as she thinks she is. She is just a person. I'm off to a different bar this time now, so we'll see how that goes.

hey catch - ive got the same problem. ive had more than 10 convos easily this week (more like 20+, after the weekend), but HB's is still hard. small steps eh!
anyway, i found a good opener that just sprung into my head at my local shop. Overworked UG works in this shop crazy hours, she's always there so I went to her checkout
Me: Hey, do they ever let you out of here?
UG: LOL! I was supposed to go home an hour ago
Me: thats slave labour! you should sue!
UG: LOL!
<fluff talk>
That was a suprisingly effective opener, conversation about work just flowed from that... though would only work if you knew they were always working, so assumes some familiarity with the target.
Another interesting convo I had was at the beach, as I went surfing on saturday. As Im walking up the beach with my board a mum with two kids asks me if surfing is hard, so we get into a bit of a convo about learning to surf and technique on the water, safety blah blah blah. Finally she comes out with we're born again christians , and starts talking about church etc. I ejected soon after.

Got 'em in, but:
Well, this weekend was not a good weekend for me to go out. penis--city wherever I went, but last night, I went ahead and finished with the convo's. I decided to go to a bar that I had not been to before, and it was okay. I was able to talk with the bartender, and one of the ****tail waitresses and about five or six other people, so, yeah, my week is finally done. Let's get ready for the third week.

"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.

FR week 2
hi all, finished this week's tasks. Got around 15 convo's. Today we made a barbecue at home, my friends invited some of their girl friends, so it has been a very nice oportunity to practice. Though I was a lot frozen in the begining, I got a little beer and could release the tension for a while. Also, I played some guitar and that is a nice way to turn people happier,, see ya, can't wait for next week's tasks.

so im afraid that there wont be a write up from me this week so im afraid that there wont be a write up from me this week
Did you read that part?
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Hey guys, I am late starter and am running to catch up here.
I started week 1 yesterday and continued today. So far I am up to 27 EC's and a couple of those have been smiles.
The lastest smile was a smile and nod with a Japanese dude at the bus stop this evening when I was coming back from the gym. It was about 9.30pm. Then I noticed a cute blonde girl (at least 8.5 if you are keeping score.)
There was very brief EC and then she put her hood up - it was pretty cold.
I decided to go for it.
Me: You aren't that cold are you?
Her: (smile) yeah, my ears are freezing.
Me: Mine aren't doing too well either but it could be worse.
(small talk about the weather and the state of the buses.)
Across the road, Debenhams (department store) was having its open until midnight pre Xmas sale and a guy was on a tannoy calling to passersby to come in.
Me: Cool, maybe you should go in and buy some ear muffs.
Her: Haha, what a mad job to have.
Me: Yeah, and he's in front of an open window with no coat. You got nothing to complain about.
Then I fluffed it a bit by talking about the dodgy tannoy announcements in the local ASDA (supermarket.) I got boring here and didn't really engage her.
Then the bus arrived. We got on but didn't sit together. We got up for the same stop. Quick EC and a smile. We got off.
Me: Hey, can I ask you something.
Her: (Looks and smiles - ie go ahead.)
Me: I have to organise a flat warming party this weekend (this is true) but I don't know this area all that well. What would be a good bar to start at.
Her: Oh I don't know that many either but bar A and bar B are quite good. (She describes them a bit.)
Me: Cool, bar A sounds like it would go down well.
Then we crossed the road and turned to go seperate ways.
Her: Have a nice flat warming.
Me: Thanks, take it easy.
So there you have it. I got to talk to a very cute girl. Didn't make any real headway but it's a start.

Hey... I like this bit. Shoulda closed, but that's week 4 mentality kickin' in. Good job, at this pace you'll get week1/2 over with pretty quickly. Hopefully we'll see you there in week 5/6. :cheer:

Thanks for the feedback.
There wasn't enough of a connection to go for a number plus we were both cold and walking pretty quickly - not ideal conditions for a newbie.
The more I looked at her the cuter I realised she was and although I messed up a bit at the bus stop I got to talk to her. I am sure there were a few other guys around who would have liked to chat with her.
Week 5 & 6? Are there threads yet. I'll look out for them.
Anyway, ONWARD!

And onward it is...
Met a friend tonight before our martial arts class. He wanted to get a coffee so we went to Starbucks. There is a Hispanic girl who works there who is friendly and kinda cute. He ordered an Americano...
Her: Would you like an extra shot of coffee in there?
Me: Why does he look like he needs waking up?
Her: (laughing) No. But people who drink Americano are usually coffee fans.
She takes my friend's order.
Her: And for you?
Me: No thanks, I'm wide awake as it is.
Her: Decaff then?
Me: No thanks, I'm off to the gym in a minute.
Her: Another time (wink)
Yeah, yeah, she was just trying to get me to buy a coffee but I was a bit more playful than I would normally be and when we left my friend was convinced she was into me and I should go back another time.
So after training I find myself at the same bus stop as last night. There is a cute 7 there tonight.
We stand next to each other for a bit and I figure what the hell. I started by pointing out the tannoy from last night at Debenhams. She is more chatty than the blonde last night.
We chat about shopping, bars and stuff. She says she is being lazy waiting for a bus as she doesn't live that far away. I say the same.
Pause
Me: OK, if the next bus isn't mine I am going to walk it.
Next bus comes and is not one we can catch.
Me: Well I'm walking. You coming or what?
(She looks to see if a bus is coming.)
Me: (playfully) Oh come on, let's go.
So off we walk together. We had a good chat and at one point there was a bus at the stop we both could have caught. I wondered if she wanted to catch it but she carried on chatting and walking.
She told me about her flat and her flatmates and I asked her again for recommendations for bars for the flat warming. I mentioned a vodka bar and she said she knew all about that as her BF is Polish. No big deal, all I am trying to do at this stage is get used to naturally starting a conversation.
We split up to go our seperare ways and wish each other good night.
All in all it went pretty well and she obviously felt comfortable enough to open up a little.
Mission accomplished. 2 down, 8 to go.

There's no week 5 thread yet. Shezz or I will post up next week.
But it's good to see you making opportunities for yourself. Good job on getting HB7 bus stop to walk with ya.
Looks like you're gonna have no prob with this week's mission. You're doing weeks 1/2/3 at once right?

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Yeah - weeks 1-3 just seem to be merging into each other so I am going with the flow.
One thing I have noticed is that Londoners really hate eye contact. I walked through the City yesterday monring and everyone tried to avoid contact.
Saying hello has gone 2 for 2 so I have ended up moving into week 3 territory.
Week 4 should be interesting.

3 conversations so far
I went to the city today to have 7 more. I thought it shouldn't be too hard.
But people just walking on the street seem harder to just start chatting with em.
The first three conversations where all in situations where you'd expect someone to talk to you (gym, new guy at work), so it was eazy for me just to start talking.
So what I gotta do now is try to start chatting with someone even if there isn't any obvious thing to chat about. What Ive tried b4 on the street - is asking directions and changing the subject first chance i get.

Done a few more conversations...but couldn't get past those two minutes.
I believe its an innergame thing, a way of thinking, cuz I feel like ejecting the second they (people I talk to) don't show some level of interest.
But ofcourse, you can get to fun topics with basicley onyone (Ive seen this b4) so what i gotta do is break through that barrier, just keep talking even if there are moments of silence.
I'm actually making it sound like its a really hard thing to do. 'Course its not. I just need that extra little push. + I tend to get bored with people.
So two more days to finish this, to get 7more conversations. That means some hard-ass work. I'm gonna go to the city again, this time do some warm-ups (quick convo or question then leave) to get in the spirit...and then talktalktalk
---btw, I dont wanto fool anyone I'm making major progress here. To tell you guys a little bit about my game: Ive been active for 'bout 6 months, approached about 50 girls, winged alot, sarged alone. so it's basicley not that fcking hard for me.
But about a month ago, after I was done with the approaching fear thing, I got stuck on conversation and attraction. After a few times sarging without any progress, maybe even getting worse, I dicided to take a break.
After that I found this bootcamp and thought it was just what I needed. So there you go, my introduction to you. If anyone ever still reads this topic that is---

--- had 3 more 2minute+ conversations yesterday.I'm getting better at this. Feels great to be active in the field again
So that ads my total score to 6. 4 more and week2 is done. Those are ofcourse planned for today.
What I'm gonna try is instead of the innocent asking questions openers, is comment or compliment people on something and see where I can go from there. Also, I have to make better use of the 3seconds rule.
But the conversations itself are going better. I'm getting more persistant to keep them going and ofcourse, I'm starting to like it.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
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.
