"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.

howdy fellows,

well, been doing some searches on the subject of turning your friend into a semen receptacle (to paraphrase tom cruise in magnolia) and am not finding anything BIBLE-esque on the subject.

any good articles anyone can refer me to?

also, doesn't it sound like a good thing to put in the bible so dumba$$ motherfvcker$ like me don't pepper the boards with this question whenever we find our way to sanctuary? :)

------------------------------------------------------

a thought however:

when women want you as a genuine friend (and it's equitable... she's not using you, etc), it might mean that you've come along in your journey to being a pretty good human being.

you're not a jerk. you don't do passive/agressive stuff. no major personality problems.

but you're still not gettin' to bein' a good MAN yet.

--------------------------------------------------

"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.

Wow that article is superb, I'm amazed I never saw it before. Yeah, I vote that should be in the bible too.

There's a reason for this.

Here's why

Because that's not the best way to find a GF. It rarely happens, and those rare cases are almost always when you don't try.
 

"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.

You got it squirrels...they don't put it in because it doesn't happen LOL, and even when it does it always ends up disasterously......There is a reason you got LJBF'ed my friend, its called low IL, or to be blunt - "I just don't find you attractive enough to fuk"

DOn't believe in that "escape the friendszone" or those "turn friend into girlfriend" articles. Those articles written by idealistic people who probably theorize this is the proper way to do it.

NO.

I have seen cases of friends turning into relationships but ONLY when the GIRL INITIATES IT. The following rules must apply:

1. They must be physically compatible (they both find each other attractive enough)

2. They must be intellectually compatible (they both can talk about whatever subject)

3. The girl ALWAYS initiates it, if the guy initiates it the girl after about a couple days will think "Wow, this guy is making the moves.. but he is taking advantage of our closeness as friends to move this far.. he is a WIMP for not dating me in the first place" - if the girl initiates it.. she is speaking from the bottom of her heart and not out of desperation because girls value friendships highly than guys do.

I was successful at turning a "friend" into something more. But it's definately not the most efficient way to get a woman. The reason it's not in the Bible is because it feeds one-itis and can get the guy into a deeper rut than he's already in.

But what if you are not 'friends' as such, but she knew you as an AFC and then later you become a DJ? Is it possible then?

It's not THAT difficult to turn a friend into more. But, as others have said, only do it if you're willing to give up on your friendship for ever. It might work out, but then again it usually doesn't. So, attempt at your own risk.
