Well, I was reading up one of my old, old threads, and almost everyone said that I should smile in that topic, but doesn't smiling make you look gay? I don't want to go around approaching girls, looking like a fruit or anything.
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.

Ah, I see, so it's not gay. But should you go around smiling all the time or should you smile only at certain moments?ValleyDJing said:hell no, smiling doesn't make you look gay, unless you do it wrong. show teeth definitely and make it sort of a crooked smile but a big one. the crooked smile makes you look sly you know? try to keep your eyes under control...relax them you know what i mean?

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 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.
Half smile, what exactly does that look like?Half a smile is better.
I didn't ask whether or not it was good or not, I already know that it's good, I asked if it makes you look gay and now, I know the answer. Besides, even if it does make me look gay, what do I care what those other guys think? Women still love it and I'll still probably be getting more girls than them, with my "gay" smile. Long as I don't look like a total fruitloop. A lot of people say it's not cool for a black guy to smile, but they're only saying that to cover up their own insecurities.delete this thread
cant belive you have to ask if its good to smile or not
smile = happy = self confidence = girls take note = win
I actually don't, or I wouldn't of asked it.Docs said:Viper, what the hell is with asking this question?
You already know the goddamn answer.
don't use those smiles, they look scary, not charmingNighthawk said:
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.

the way to aproach a girl , is to never smile keep a frown on your face ,
make it look like your gonan hit her , be mad as hell ....

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
