That does not sound like a date it sounds like some BS you should turn down...
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 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.
Last week Wednesday she broke it off again, but for the whole of February till then we were sweet hearts. She bought me a $300 dollar watch for Valentines Day and I tried reciprocating buy taking her to a fine dining seafood restaurant. We did a lot together since getting back and I still love her, although now I'll really just do the no contact thing. The last time we were together was last week Monday we went to Sea Life Park down here in Hawaii but that was the first time I noticed her starting to act flaky with me again, but prior to that it was even better than before the holidays of last year. 2 Fridays ago, the weekend before the Monday outing we went to the clubs and I noticed she started hanging around her girlfriends again and I think that has a lot to do with it, although I'd also say I was turning afc and talking to her every time she'd call which was 4 times a day and hanging with her 3, 4 days of the week. On the Monday after Sealife Park we got to her side of the island which is about roughly 20 miles from where I live and we got into an argument so I caught the bus home, she's the one that owns a car. She called me on Wednesday morning as she usually does to wake me up for work, then I started bringing up Monday and then it went downhill from there, and she hung up on me. After that I never tried calling her and to this day none of us made contact. Now I've come back and checked this site again for inspiration cause my spirit is broke again but I don't feel as bad, but still a little sad cause she really knew how to show good love. I don't have much but she showered me with material things, exotic dinners, paid for the outings lent me her car even if I didn't have a license and gave me sex everytime I wanted. So yeah that's what happened. My head is telling me to just move forward and don't look back and that's the plan. I don't think I'll answer if she ever calls, but it hurts to break this connection we had. What's your thoughts?MacAvoy said:Welcome back Jake. Whatever happened with Carmen?
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.
