"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.

Hey I'm looking for some ideas for POF first dates. I live in a small city but its large enough that i should be able to find most suggestions. I was looking for something that would be casual but still have interaction between the two of us. So I'm leaning against restaurants (way too to much pressure to quickly create conversations) and Movie theatres ( the two of you go and sit and watch a movie theres absolutely no bonding? i'd do that with my grandma..). What i originally had thought was skating or miniature golf or along those lines. Just wanted to see what better ideas were out there. I'm not looking for a one nighter these dates would be with girls i'd like to date…I know how AFC of me… as a side note I'm a university student so activities appropriate for that age category would be appreciated.
Thanks for any input!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I've heard shıtty things from other guys here regarding POF chicks so be warned. As a first date, though, keep it cheap, you have no idea who is going to show up and with what personality. Go for coffee or a drink so you can bust out any time if the shıt hits the fan blades.

Rex has two questions:

1) What has this chick,done to warrant being taken ice skating or miniature golfing? Don't you think those type of activities should be reserved for girlfriends?

2) How is taking this chick, (a stranger that you only know from the internet,) skating or miniature golfing going to help you

a) transition from male-to-female to female-to-male interest?

b) build rapport?

c) build comfort?

d) have this chick see you romantically, as oppose to her "gay boyfriend."

Your plans give her benefits and the attention of a relationship without her ACTUALLY being in one. What you're purposing is a net/sum gain for her and a potentially net loss for you. You obviously want to f*ck this chick and all of your actions and plans need to be directed to achieving this mission objective.

As V.P. said, take her to coffee or drinks, and keep that tab under $40. Good luck.

Rex has it. Simple coffee date is usually my default for online girls. That way you can get the fvck outta there if you're not feeling it.

Spend less than 10 bucks on them. Anything more is a waste of money. You're taking them out to bang later on. not getting to know them for future dates.
 

"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.

Thanks for the help. Now that i think about it a couple drinks sounds like what i'll do. Just a little distracted by some of these HB's :p Clearly still a lot of learning left to do.
