"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.

Have any of you guys experienced your target's female friend (best friend in my case) get jealous and even talk **** about you behind your back? I am not talking about a pickup scenario, we know each other quite long - this girl is our mutual friend (sort of).

My guess is she's jealous or she just plain doesn't like me. My target sent me a mail with this absolutely insane BS about "how complicated she is" and "how she doesn't want to cause me any trouble" and then after a few minutes of talking she's "warm" again. My gut tells me I'm being ****blocked (and that both of them are probably a little bit psycho too).

I'm pretty confident that you'll tell me to NEXT her and that I am an idiot for not seeing her obvious "**** off, I am not interested" message but I tell you her IL is around 49-51 and something is fishy here - anyway, after you flame the hell out of me it would still be interesting to hear any suggestions on the general "target's best friend causing problems" as I can imagine this might interest a lot of people here.

Oh, and why do I bother? I am drawn to mystery and challenge ;-) If it is a waste of time and a mistake, at least it's my mistake.

Thank you
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Is the BF a guy? Most of time, girls are happy about their girl friend finding a guy. Unless you treated the best friend like **** before...

Lots of women want their gfs paired up with nice, controllable AFCs. And as many if not more would rather their gfs stayed nice and single. Men aren't so different in this respect, as you have rightly anticipated with your prearranged defences. I like a challenge also, though there is always a time to cut bait.

As for jealous friends, ideally they would have been charmed and neutralized from the start, but if you get a real determined trouble-maker, address the problem with your target, and say it saddens you that she can't support your shared happiness. Don't openly attack her, let your girl join the dots.

What evidence do you have that this person is c-ck-blocking you behind your back? She may just be reflecting your targets doubts. If a woman wants you enough she will listen to her friends warnings as little as we men do when warned away from a dangerous hottie. In fact they can make the person even more attractive.

Well, when I met her she was really warm and nice and I was nice to her also. I used to go the the same university as she is attending now and I had some books left so she bought them from me. I wanted to meet her for a coffee or something (just making new friends) but she might have misunderstood this as me trying to get her validation to go for the target (lol).

As for the evidence, my target told me it was her who made her not give me the phone # first time. Then I visited this friend at her work, she told me my target is also on her way here (but I had to run for another meeting) I instructed her to greet her with a ****y/funny greeting - slash - date invitation. Then I found out she didn't even tell her about me being there :rolleyes:

The fact she didn't give me her phone # while my game was so tight and I was getting IOIs here and there but still she made her not to allow me #-close tells me she's easily controllable by this friend (that's why I mentioned she might be "psycho" in my first post)
 

“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.
