Master Don Juan
What do you mean by that? How have I been staying in my comfort zone?
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.
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.
So, did she "grab your pump" after all?Maxtro said:I'll briefly invite her inside to grab my pump and I'll offer her some water.
ohhhh, I see what you did there? lmaoHuffman said:So, did she "grab your pump" after all?![]()
Now, what did you learn from this experience? If you did learn anything, you're bound to be getting/making the same mistake.Maxtro said:LOL, no. I didn't even realize I said it like that
This girl is history and I'll probably never see or talk to her again unless I run into her on campus.
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.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Predictably enough, she has you jumping through her hoops. She picks, you get to do the cooking or go to a sexless lunch where she'll pay for her stuff (translation: "I don't want to owe you anything or make you think I am interested, so I'll pay for my stuff". She says "jump!", you say, "How high"? At this point she knows you are salivating worse than Pavlov's dogs! Behaving like a predictable good doggy! :kick:Maxtro said:And out of nowhere I get a random text
Her: You want to get lunch Monday?
WTF? I had already deleted her number but I recognized her area code.
Then it went like this.
Me: U buying?
Her: No, u cookin?
Her: Ill pay for My stuff. Lol
Me: Cookings an interesting idea, u like buffalo wings?
She hasn't replied yet.
Frankly I'm amazed that she contacted me.
Edit: Still going on. Seems like she wants Vietnamese food.
Why do you refuse to hear what you need to hear and resort to hearing only what you want to hear?Maxtro said:I don't care about the attention and I rather not have drama here.
You know better, and she is spelling it out, making it LOUD AND CLEAR that she has no interest.Maxtro said:First off, I wouldn't pay for her stuff period. I know better than to think that paying for girls shit entitles you to pussy.
Really, like what? Reaching across the table at the restaurant, and gropping her and get freaky?Maxtro said:An asexual lunch? So be it. That doesn't mean that I'm not going to try anything.
Because she knows you're interested. Duh. I don't know, I heard that women love to get attention. Not sure if that's true, but that might be a reason.Maxtro said:What I can't figure out is why she is inviting a guy whom she knows is interested in her to lunch with her.
Yes, but not by listening to her and going along with everything she suggests. You first need to stop doing everything that is NOT working, everything that is getting in the way, before you can begin doing stuff that might actually swing things in your favor.Maxtro said:Is there anything I can do to turn this in my favor?
Compare this to this...Maxtro said:And out of nowhere I get a random text

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.
Rule #1: Anytime anybody begins a statement with "Honestly", you can automatically disregard what they say after as being anything but honest.Maxtro said:Honestly this whole interaction with her is now more like a science project. My interest for her has dramatically lowered. Now I'm just trying to figure out what the hell she's thinking. I'm also going to be testing the boundaries till she tells me no. Then I walk away.
The old carrot and stick trick.Maxtro said:If she wants a friend who's going to keep trying to hook up with her then that's on her. I have nothing to lose.
Yes you do, you have your time when you should be doing other things - be it working on yourself, or out with other friends/girls. What's the point in spending time with this girl if nothing is ever going to happen? which is what YOU want.Maxtro said:If she wants a friend who's going to keep trying to hook up with her then that's on her. I have nothing to lose.
