"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.

I'm 29, a professional that has done well in my career, though I'm not rich by any means. The girl I've been dating since Oct is 28. We see each other about 1X or 2X a week. What type of gift would you recommend I get her for Valentine's Day? I'm not cheap, so money isn't the concern, it's just getting the appropriate type thing for her. Any suggestions?

And I'm not AFC, have not bought her any type of gift, flowers, etc... until this point.
 

“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.

I make it a point not to buy anything for a plate except for her birthday. On Valentine's day my gift to my first place plate will be a get-away weekend. My gift to my runner-ups will be to continue seeing them.

Keep your FRAME.

Pretend that you're getting castrated in the morning.

Now go wild with her in bed.

That's the best gift you can give her.

You haven't told us yet how tight you are with this chick. What do "dating" and "seeing" mean in YOUR OWN words?
For a lot of us, those words mean next-to-nothing. Too many of us have learned that even "sleeping" with a chick can mean NO $ex! If you're having $ex every time you get together, it means a lot more than just meeting up to go shopping or walking her dog. This chick is special, or at least she thinks she is. In that case, go all out for her.
I don't go by "The Rules", generally, but the Rule about gift-giving makes total sense: Special occasion gifts shall be frivolous and romantic, not sporty or functional.
I've worked for this lovely talented dame for more than ten years, we've "dated" a few times, no $ex. She's done more for my career than just about anyone, so that makes her special. I'm not going wild, but I'm getting her a book about rescued dogs along with a bunch of flowers.
She once told me, I don't need to bring her flowers, which I do for no special occasion. I asked her, "Who else brings you flowers?" Um, nobody, apparently.

I'm getting the girl I would like to get naked a bag of GREEN M&Ms, a funny card, and 2 Purple Roses. Inside the card is going to be a print out of the song "Dirty Mind" from Prince.
 

"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.

good grief, either i'm so unromantic or old or i dunno what...
but on valentines, i just don't like the crowds when you try to go out.
last year, gio called up chilis and gave them our order and he picked it up, and i made sure there were fresh brownies and cookies and cupcakes ... we had the best time camped out in front of a movie in our very own house.

no need for the little trinkets that later collect dust, or flowers that die in a week....

"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.

Give her a box of chocolates, a CD, take her to a spa or whatever those places are to get a massage... Or like selfmademob said; a d!ck in the box.

My girlfriend and her friends have boycotted valentines day (even though all of them are dating someone. They think that it is an over hyped holiday)

"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.
