"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.

If a chick is saying something to you (about you) while drunk, is it likely that she means it in a sober state?

I worded that sentence really badly.. lol, Oh well. If, for example, she says she loves you while drunk, does she like you sober or was it just the alcohol?
 

"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.

Are you talking about while you are drunk, or while she is drunk?

Lol, both.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

In this situation, is can vary. Sometimes they might really mean it, and sometimes they might not... there is no set rule for this kind of thing. But if u ask me, i wouldnt believe it 100% until she says it in a sober state.

Diablo is certainly right. You usually say things that you wouldn't normally say when sober. Now don't simply assume that someone will tell the truth, or how they really feel. I know I'm a lot more socializing when a little tipsy and get others to laugh better than when sober, but I've managed to transfer quite a few of those qualities into soberness.

Lol, I would say exactly the opposite. Come on guys, we all know that alcohol loosens the lips(both sets I guess for women). If a girl says something to you when she's drunk like "I've always wanted to f*ck your best friend XXXX", then denies it when she sobers up saying "Oh, I was drunk, I didn't know what I was saying!", you can bet your life that she DID know what she was saying.

The thing is, when things get blurted out in a drunken state, they're rarely put in context or explained completely, so yeah, SOMETIMES it's not exactly the truth, but a skewed version of it. It's up to you to decide based upon your knowledge of the other person etc.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I have seen it many times where chicks would tell a guy they loved him, that they wanted him to f*ck her, and the next day regretted it. But alas, at times they COULD mean it, but read the 1st part of my post where i said:
ometimes they might really mean it, and sometimes they might not... there is no set rule for this kind of thing
Next time quote my whole post if u wanna disagree with it;)

No problem.

I think we're basically on the same page on this issue anyways.

It's possible. I've seen people change a lot when they become drunk. They might say things that they might have thought for like two seconds and ultimately didn't mean.

On the flipside, I've also seen people speak their mind.

You simply have to pay attention and play it by ear.

Personally, I can think of only two things that I've done when feeling a buzz that I haven't done while sober.

- I've called a girl hot when I was feeling the buzz (I really thought so too, just that I wouldn't say so when sober).

- A few times I've tried to dance when I really can't. It's an even worse idea if you don't like the song. And at parties people usually play what's popular, which is generally what I don't like (though after enough beers it's easier to ignore the music).

Other than that there's nothing that I've done after drinking a few beers that I wouldn't do stone cold sober.

I really must have an amazing amount of self-control.

Also, I've never had the desire to have sex with a girl while buzzed, but not when sober. Namely, my standards don't go down.

P.S. When people say they don't remember what happened the last night, it's a load of crap. I always remember what happens. People say that when they don't want to recall what happened or don't want to tell others.

Yeah, my standards don't go down either.

I also always remember what happens. I agree with what you say, except when someone drinks so much they pass out or something. Then I generally do believe them when they say they don't remember anything after a certain before (usually a little before they pass out). But there's a lot of people that aren't all that drunk (not even close to throwing up) that will still say they can't remember anything.

I'll have ya know that I often get so drunk I can't remember things.

Saturday Night for example. The day before my 22nd birthday.

I was at my mates place, he had a big family event on. I was slamming beers home. Probably had 9 or 10 beers at his place.

Then my sister picked me and my mate up and drove me into the city. She tells me that I was headbutting my mate alot of the way there, I can't remember that.

When at the club, my friend tells me that I picked up 2 girls. I can't remember either of them. I did get a number, its in my phone, but no idea who it is or when I got it. I can't remember those.

Then some girls invited us onto there party bus. We went. All I can remember from that was me and my mate being the last 2 on the bus, and the host coming and kicking us off. I can't remember anything that happened before that.

THIS IS TERRIBLE! beleive me. its very dangerous and it sucks *ss to not remember you're night out.

But I drink dangerous ammounts of alcohol sometimes.
 

"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.

Ok thanks for the thoughts, it seems there is mixed opinions on this matter..

Its probably also possible that people will knowingly say things while a bit drunk, then use the alcohol as an excuse later if it backfires.

I suppose in this particular situation I'll just play it cool and not think anything of it, then just see what happens in the near future.


I have also got so drunk that I honestly do lose all memory of incidents, and it is kinda scary when you hear stories of what you did and have no recollection of it.. But by the same token, I've also claimed that I don't remember things when I fully do just because I wanted to blame the alcohol.
