"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.

do they notice your change?

Being at a mid size school where greek life is an intimate thing, I tend to see the same girls at clubs and bars when going out. Now I'm a pretty good looking guy, so I get a good vibe from girls at the club. Thing is, I'm in the process of making my conversion for an AFC to a DJ.

My question is, do girls notice this and think you're not being yourself when you change? Theres some particular girls I'd like to hit next semester, but I'm wondering if they'll think I'm just not being myself when I start acting real ****y and confident around them.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I used to think the same way you do. If I change the way I usually act around girls(really nice & not wanting to hurt their feelings -- watching my every word. In essence, major AFC:nono: ), would they think I was becoming fake?

Don't worry about it. It'll make them wonder what happened. Most HBs are pretty self-absorbed. They'll wonder why you're being so confident around them all of a sudden for sure...meaning you might not be interested in them anymore. That's why you could just be yourself, be ****y or whatever. It'll definitely peek their interest level. :yes:

goodluck...although as they say, luck's got nothing to do w/ it.

It took me long to figure this out, DO NOT APPLY THIS KNOWLEDGE TO GIRLS THAT ALREADY KNOW YOU (from your afc days).IT IS DIFFICULT AND ALMOST A LOST CAUSE,if you don't realise that you can NOW ATTRACT HOTTER GIRLS it means you changed yourself FOR THEM which means you still don't have POWER.

My friends have noticed that I have become happier since the beginning of the year. I've personally found that I've made more friends, became more popular.

If the change to your attitude is VERY sudden and VERY drastic, they'll think you're just acting out some pickup strategy on them. Not that it MATTERS what they think, but you asked. Usually though, if you change for the better, they'll definitely notice and APPRECIATE (read: become interested in you) 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.

People should appreciate it when you become a better person, and if they don't, they you should find better people to replace them.

Yeah i have to agree with Krassus. From what i've seen, aslong as your change isn't too drastic or negative, then most people react in a positive way. Just make the change progress in a reasonable way, and not some overnight thing. People react badly to that and either think it's an act, or that they don't/never did know the real you.

In the end it's how you make them feel, so if it's good, then you have no problem.

You don't have to change; you have to improve. That's what it's all about.
