"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.

I got asked this today by a friend, whats the point of asking this and what does it even mean?

I said "nah, not really" by the way, but she is pretty though
 

"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.

lol

Wait why would you not complement her if shes your friend. You sound like an ******* to have said no. I mean if shes a friend then you should treat her as one and say that to her without her asking from time to time. Im sure she has told you that you look handsome or dress nice. If shes not a friend or your using the term roughly and your more like class mates and you have a crush on her then well i would say you need to pursue her more. If shes asking that it means shes seeking your approval cause shes attracted.

I might have sounded like an *******, but I said it sarcastically with a smile on my face, I WASNT a jackass about it, I would NEVER tell someone theyre ugly and be serious about it.

No she hasnt told me im handsome or dress nice either

I don't see a problem with it. If you said it sarcastically then you have nothing to worry about.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Wow. What if you asked her "do you think I'm good looking?" And she said "Nah, not really" half jokingly.

Would that turn you on?

I dont ask people if im good looking, girls tell me on their own, im not insecure to the point where I need reassurance from a girl

I did smile, and I did laugh when I said it, maybe I came off as an assh0le, she didnt seem to mind the rest of the day?
 

"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.

In my opinion, it was absolutely fine if you said it with a sarcastic smile.

you could have said it more playfully though like,
i don't know. on a scale of 1 to 10, i'd give you like a 2 :)

But again, she HAS to be pretty, at least HB 7 or above. Otherwise you make her feel better, no negging.

I can see there is nothing wrong with your ego.

Even if she didn't mind for the rest of the day, most girls ask a question like that to be reassured. Most girls, or anybody for that matter, want to be with people who bring them up, you make them feel good about themselves. Esp if you look like a model like you say, she was looking for a self esteem boost from you. It's easy to bring someone down and insult them.

Maybe the situation you were in with her was different.

Well maybe I should mention that this girl is the type of girl that laughs when you make fun of her. Ive known her since last year and ive tease the **** out of her everytime I see her, I make her crack up everyday, and a genuine laugh too, she loves laughing at herself and goes crazy laughing when you make fun of her and tease her.

Shes a cheerleader so I make fun of how she sucks at cheering and smells lol, but she knows im joking with her.

The point im trying to make is that shes gotten so used to me making fun of her, that what I said today was no big deal and is probably what she was expecting out of me.

I always thought that was the "kiss me" line. She's obviously looking for validation; it's a win-win.

Ultimate sh!t move; I had a girl hanging out with me in my dorm room complaining how her boyfriend sucked, then asked me that. In hindsight, the proper response would have been to kiss her, I am sure it would have gone a lot further than that, too. I didn't realize until much later that this girl was into me.

End result, I played the AFC card and was treated as such.

I agree with Effington about the validation part 100%,however,I completely disagree about it being a "win-win". When a girl says that to you,she's trying to get an ego/self-esteem boost. I believe there is a right way and a wrong way to handle the situation,and if she thought that HandyAndy was being serious,then he handled it the wrong way. Instead of giving her a yes or no answer,I would have said something like,"Do I think you're pretty? Well,to be honest,I think you'd look better with your hair up/down". If her hair was down,tell her she'd look better with it up. If it was up,tell her she'd look better with it down. I guarantee you the next time she knew that she was going to see you,her hair would be the way you said it looked best.

Sometimes its validation, sometimes it's a win-win. It depends on her vocal tonality and dynamics of your relationship with her.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
