"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.

Generally.

Any chick that teared up over something I said or did REGARDLESS if we ever did anything, hooked up, dated or whatever was basically in love with me.
 

"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.

There's some truth to that. The roller coaster of emotions can work. The rule I go by is: Make them love you or make them hate you.

Anything in between is where guys end up in the Friend Zone.

True. But that only lasts so long. Eventually, those tears will dry up and their emotions will change. What happens next is what usually determines if it is real love or just plain lust.

True enough -- just be on the lookout for crocodile tears. Same rules, do not apply.

Bingo.

I once got this girl to cry hard for me as I was walking out on her for showing disrespect. She didn't actually love me, she just had never actually been rejected by someone before.
 

"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.

yes, also true that if they cry one too many times, they're history.

And how do you get a girl to become emotional?

The girl I'm dealing with now just doesn't really react to what I do. She just doesn't care.

Of course I could say something really mean to her and get her mad at me, but I don't think that's what the OP is talking about.

If she doesn't care, walk.
If her interest level isn't high, then there is no point in pursuing anything further. You are just going to set yourself up for heartbreak.

Right, the point of my post was more so just to point out a confirmation sign. If a chick doesn't get emotional whatsoever over you then her interest is low as f*ck. If she cries, thats great. If she yells at you, thats good too although not as good as the crying.

Thanks, so it can be a good interest level check, but not really a way to boost her interest.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

That's very interesting.

It's pretty easy to switch between love and hate because they are both very strong emotions.

But Indifference is a complete lack of emotion.

Yep.

Always be careful of emotional slvts (or girls who just want an emotional rollercoaster) though. They're very fun and addicting, but they can drop you in a second.

Maybe if they cry over YOU they are yours, but if they cry over previous trauma they tell you about or over a movie you watch together, it's not the same.

One of the most fundamental premises of the DJ. The reason you should never react to their bad behavior in an emotional way. If you tell them off, it's like telling them you love them. Just act like you don't care. NC.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Not true in all cases, but maybe mine is rare.

A girl that I tried to get with who was kind of a "hard-to-get" went on a date with me once, and we ended up just walking and talking. She started talking about her dying Grandpa, she was crying, and I just kissed her, and we ended up making out right there. That relationship was my first and longest, lasting about 1 1/2 years. I broke up with her last June and she still tells nearly every girl that I know how much she still loves me.

Even though this topic is already out to date but still,

When a girl trying her hardest holding back for not crying infront of you because she is afraid and considered your feeling that you may will feel bad and despise her , but then you judged her effort saying she doesn't care or doesn't love the man then you push it to their end. what will happened if you finally seeing her explode and what will you do..??

"Run!!!! This girl is manipulative!!" Or
"****!! I love her.. I don't want to be the one that make her crying but...., we have to break up.. It's better for her.."

What a loser d*ck...

Jast say you don't love the girl from the start if you can not accept her the way she is.
If a man trully love a girl, isn't he have to make some effort to changing his own behavior..? Well.. Of course if the girl also love you back by willingly to work things out together.

Relationships should be mutual.
It wouldn't work if only one that willingly put their ego down and the other one being an *******. It's a torture!!

Geeezz.....
