"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.

Especially that song "Grenade"

I can't believe he's out there to make alot of guys think like this...
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Are you one of those people that blame music for people shooting up schools? I hope people don't base their dating technique/thinking on a horribly annoying Bruno Mars song.

Man, it's just a song, not real life.
Girls love hearing hearing that kind of sh!t, but only in song or movie form.
If there are guys who actually take the lyrics to heart, who cares, less competition. Especially if they're running around catching grenades.
 

"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.

guys, stop going easy on this clown Bruno Mars.......his song "Grenade" is absolutely influential on the masses, and sends an EXTREMELY wrong message.

Also, what he sings about in the song ISN'T romance.

Basically, his song is about this - imagine you are happily married, and then some guy at work falls in love with your wife when he first meets her. He starts going crazy, starts thinking him and your wife should be together, but your wife loves you, and thinks he's a psycho and hopes he'd just go away already and leave her alone. But no, your psycho co-worker starts thinking things like "he'd catch a grenade for your wife, and he doesn't care that she'd mess with his breaks and doesn't even give a shyt about him".

THAT is what this horrible horrible song is about......people need to stop mistaking it for love, because the girl that Bruno Mars is singing about doesn't even like him and all it sounds like is a psycho AFC oneitis obsession, which throws around the idea of DEATH pretty loosely.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Hell, when's the last time you even heard and damn song on the radio about "love" and "romance" which wasn't bordering on oneitis obsession? How bout letting the masses hear a song about a boy and a girl falling in love and how much they love each........can't remember the last time I heard one like that.

For once I agree with you Assistant.

Bruno Mars is very popular with the teenage girls right now, though. I was with one recently and she made me watch 3 or 4 of his videos in a row. I had never heard of him.

I think my comment was, "What a chump!" And she just sighed and smiled. I said, "Wow, you really have a thing for him, don't you?" She said, "I love him!"

If you guys want a good song by one of these "teenage obsession" artists... go listen to Sex by Chris Brown. Now THAT is a song we should be following.

"Girl you really in for a treat now, but don't fall in love cause we just havin' sex. I'm gonna get you wet. We not makin love tonight."
"You can thank me in the morning, when you wake up feelin hella good. Feelin like you want me."

1) Any guy who lets his actions be dictated to him by a pop song deserves whatever fate he gets.

2) Hmm, you think he's an AFC? Well, let's see, he's now richer, more famous, and can get more tail than anyone on these boards. So what does that make us?

You can call him a sellout. You can say his music is terrible. But don't make the mistake of thinking there is anything average, chumpy or frustrated about a guy that is making girls across the country wet their panties.

There's nothing more AFCish than calling a more successful guy an AFC out of envy.

Well, making crappy music and getting busted on charges of cocaine possession isn't my idea of successful (I for one am hardly jealous), but to each his own.

He is a public figure, I'll give him that.
 

"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.

He probably gets laid more than the op. I wonder if his category can be called "pseudo-afc" or "afc player" because these people can sing in such an AFC way and still get treated like rock stars by chicks.

The bad economy is making people soft. The radio is filled with these ridiculous love songs these days.

A guy sings some love songs to get rich and famous, and the OP decides he is an AFC. Based on SONGS he sings on the radio, are you kidding me! What the fvck do you know about the guy beyond what the MEDIA tells you? If you were a close friend of his I'd be intrigued by this claim of yours but NO you heard a SONG and now your enlightened to his personality. The songs are AFC no doubt but your claim that HE is an AFC is stupid and plain speculation.

Can people seriously stop being stupid and realize that these ARE NOT LOVE SONGS! How many times do I have to explain that these are songs about psychotic oneitis-riddled chumps.......Grenade is IN NO WAY ABOUT LOVE.

No one has a problem with love songs........we all have a problem with PSYCHO CHUMP songs.

Get the difference?
 

"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.
