"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.

there are certain cases or scenerios which come up often, while dealing with a girl.....many guys think they have to come up with something original everytime something happens, but most likley it wont come out that fast.....

so what are your default moves for common situations....
for example:
a girl saying im fat/ugly
a girl trying to challange you
being a brat to you in public
her throwing a tantrum on you
her complimenting you
you see a girl at the book store/the mall....etc.....

you can tell your own common situations too.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

i dont think you got the point....of course it doesnt matter what you say, but sometimes nothing may come out at all....you may get too caught up in the momement or everything might happen so fast you dont get a chance to think of anything....thats why having a default thing to do for some common situations is good...bc your come back is there, you dont have to think about it, you shoot back and makes her realize that her challenges are no match for you

I think undesputable is hitting on something people should pay more attention to.

He's hinting at a need for a Vocabulary of reactions. Everyone has a verbal vocabulary that they use when speaking. Although you probably know thousands of words, thing of how many of them you use in regular conversation. And think about how many words, and word combinations, or ways of speaking, that make you unique?

This is a concept popular with musicians, dealing with their musical vocabulary. You know how you can hear a song and tell which band/solo artist is playing even if you haven't been told yet? That's because you are accustomed to their musical vocabulary. They have a way of playing that is unique enough for you to know who it is pretty soon after the song starts.

So Undesputable is talking about acquiring a social vocabulary, which is pretty crucial. Most guys that have naturally acquired a good one think this concept is silly (much as natural DJ's think this site is silly) and guys that haven't acquired one probably completely understand what I'm talking about.

As for some of your specific questions:
her throwing a tantrum on you: with kids and adults when this happens you can only do one thing: walk away. People throw tantrums for attention. If you just walk away mid tantrum not only are you denying attention, but they look douche bags throwing a tantrum all by themselves.

Her comlimenting you: Just say thanks. I personally don't find a way to compliment a person back right after they compliment me because it looks insincere.

Girls saying you're fat/ugly: probably won't happen unless A) she's a total ***** B) you're being out of line. This has only happened to me once, and I've been fat my whole life. And I was being out of line. And she was a *****. Really, this is another one where I personally just walk away. That's the type of thing she says to make you BLOW UP you're so mad. Don't give her the satisfaction. She wants to have everyone see you scream at her. It makes her a victim.

I guess most of the situations you listed end up with me walking away right after of as it happens. I guess that's why I've moved 5 times in the past 3 years. I walk away from things a lot.
 

"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.
