"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.

Dealing with shy, prudent girls.

Went out with a chick last night. Things ended positively, left her with high interest and she even offered plans for a second meetup. Problem is I detect a potential BPD, and she was very, very shy and seemed very prudent. Barely started opening up to me at the end of the date, and her body language was very "closed up." I did get her to laugh a bit and all througout, but it took effort to carry the conversation if you know what I mean.

I'm pretty confident the attraction is there, just that based on my observations she was obviously hurt very bad in her last relationship and claims she has been single for 2 years now, and I think she has a guard up, if you know what I mean. Also, she just recently came here to the US and is from Venezuela, and is seemingly insecure.

So my question is, how do you guys go about dealing with, and escalating things with girls like this? I used light kino all throughout the night but didn't want to be too aggressive as I just know this type here, and think a more slower-steady approach would be optimal. I suppose I will give it til the 3rd round and if we aren't hooking up by then I will move on.
 

"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.

What you should do in a second meet-up is buy an engagement ring and a bouquet of flowers and ask her how much children that she wants to have when you both are married then when she sees that you are committed then she should open up more.

Bone-head answer for bone-head question. You already know you have to move-on, why post about this?
 

"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.

That's what I was thinking, as I don't believe there is any magic lines or moves to get a girl like that to open up, but I do find her very attractive will give it another date or two and see where it goes.

I'm spinning other plates so it ain't no thang anyway. This girl is an honest HB8 in my opinion, has it going for herself physically but is just very shy and reserved so I will put forth a little effort.

Why not? This is a DISCUSSION board afterall and I was simply asking my fellow sosuavers how they deal with chicks like this. So if you don't have anything constructive to say cease posting in this thread.
