"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.

Background story: Went out with this girl a whiel back, got friendzoned since the moment she met me because i'm asian and younger than her (that's what she said anyways, who knows, who cares). So I say **** it, mind as well see what happened. So I ask her why she friendzoned me, and she tells me cause she's not attracted to asian guys, and not to younger guys.

Then she IMs me today with this: (cliffs, I'll call her dimples cause she has dimples)

Dimples: i realized you're really sarcastic
Dimples: and that you come off as mean sometimes, and if a guy likes you, from experience, he doens't make fun of you all the time :p
Dimples: so by you being sarcastic
Dimples: the girl thinks
Dimples: "oh he doesn't like me like that"
Dimples: and puts you in the friend category
Dimples: don't make fun of anyone
Dimples: in front of her
Dimples: make it seem like you're super nice
Dimples: and non judgemental like that
Dimples: omg and!
Dimples: if you like a girl
Dimples: compliment her
Dimples: instead of being sarcastic
Dimples: because then she'll know you like her
Dimples: oh and i think you said
Dimples: "you're cute for a girl off the internet"
Dimples: that's like saying
Dimples: "oh you're okay looking for an asian guy" :p
Dimples: it's like
Dimples: a compliment and an insult
Dimples: in one
Dimples: lol

Huh. I'll keep this somewhere in the back of my head, not really sure what to make of it right now. This isn't the first time i've been called an ******* =P


Thoughts on this? Cause i'm just thinking either I really AM too mean, or this girl is out of her mind.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Some women do not like sarcasm - some women aren't attracted to Asian men - that's ok - move on!! There is nothing wrong here folks - keep moving!!
 

"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.

craigslist.

I'm serious. LOL. I was dead bored and decided to go poke fun at all the emotional/fat girls on craigslist, and this one emailed me back with a pic and she was pretty cute, so i thought **** it mind as well.


But don't think I'm advocating craigslist, it's horrible. I was just "lucky?" enough to find a normal girl that posted it out of boredom (or so she says)

Thats interesting being that I had a similar comment from a girl I'm currently talking with but has a boyfriend. Normally I don't try to hook up with chicks that are already "committed" but I cant help but being a prick with this one :p its the type of girl that you can tease without too many boundaries (meaning coming off as an ass), and I love these kind of girls.

So anyway this is what she said to me a couple days ago, I'll try translate this from Greek. I'll call her jelly :p long story..

jelly: can I ask you something but promise you wont get offended?
smooth: go ahead
jelly: well let's say one day I like you more than a friend and want you badly.. when you have this kind of attitude always being a tease and a ****y guy how will u supposed to take me seriously? its as if i'm gonna feel nothing will ever happen because you dont act as if you like me also and i wont feel like ever making a move..
smooth: umm well ...
jelly: but I'm talking now IF! IF that happens! I'm not saying it will! And anyway if I liked you more than a friend you'd probably never know!

:crackup:

Personally I consider these comments a good thing, and I find the comments from that girl that friend zoned you a good thing also. But I think these girls do have some point...you must at least show some interest...not all girls will just come and say to your face 'hey wanna have a relationship?' without them getting any interest signs from you.

If you mix the your ****y attitude with some interest signs you'll probably have more success.

its either a shyttest or she has low self esteem OR you didn't have the funny part of ****y comedy so you ended up just being ****y. don't worry about it. just next her.
next time be like
"nah, i have tons of friends, cya"
willingness to walk away is sexy. :)

Smooth guy - she wants u but she's trying to figure it out logically/test you.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I'm a sarcsastic guy. Sometimes people get offended at what I say, or they'll look at me like "oh my god I can't believe you said that". But it's my personality though, literally can't change it. Wouldn't want to.

BUT I have noticed, that sometimes when I'm just having a good time, things can get taken the wrong way. Then someone will bring up, maybe months later, some offhand remark I made that was totally in good humor. I tell people "Look I like to tease people. Don't take what I'm saying seriously unless I mean it".

Nah, trust me I have the funny part down, I can get almost anyone to laugh, I enjoy making people laugh actually.

And yes I did next her, I just thought this was interesting.

Your signature quote really is the best way to look at this situation. Even if she were accurately describing a good way to seduce her (which she probably wasn't; girls don't know what they want), you still don't need her. She really must be lame if she can't take a joke.

Definetely, though this isn't the first time I've been called an ******* :crackup:

It's all good though, because I wasn't using any routines or anything, that's just how I am.

well, if you really are an assh0le, I'd probably call that a bad trait, regardless of what other males or females think. It's not good to belittle people for no reason...

of course, you may just be around a lot of girls with no sense of humor
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I don't think it was very ummm polite for her to referance your race, you saying she is cute for a chick off the net and her sayin you cute for an asian isn't the same ballpark, not even the same sport. Next her.

Yeah, what he said...and Tucker Max is as right as right can be... A chick who can't laugh at herself (i.e. takes herself too seriously) isn't for me anyway.... At least you weeded her out quickly enough.
