"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.

Alright, A friend of mine likes this girl, but she has a boyfriend (I know, I advised against it, but he pursued anyways.) Anyways, he hadn't seen her with her boyfriend in while so he pulled this little number;

Him: Hey, are you still going out with what's his name?
Her: Steven, yeah
Him: Damn
Her: Why?
Him: I totally have a crush on him, but I can't do anything 'till I get you out of the picture

I lol'd, he was wondering if he came of as too ghey. What do you guys think?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

It's high school, so yes, people probably will think he's gay. It's a decent approach/random line, but used in day game or with friends/acquaintances, it can backfire.

Really lame.

At best, she might crack smile and did nothing to further things with her- at worst (and likely) it probably came off as just weird.
 

"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.

That's either crossing the line or getting really, really close to it. Depends on how he said it. You can make homosexual jokes with your guyfriends, and it's close to the line but not crossing it. If your friend didn't know Steven, then it would be pretty gay. Imagine Steven if he heard that guy said it. If he was a big football guy, he'd probably play smeer the queer on that guy's face.

Actually, it's college, but whatever.
She did laugh. He told me he said it obviously sarcastically and smiled at after he said it.

oh, and I got it wrong, he said "I totally have a crush on him, but I can't do anything 'till I get you out of the picture, Why Else?"

And yes, he has met Steven before, but I'm not sure how well they know each other. I think it was pretty funny considering he made it clear that he was only kidding, but it really depends on how he said it.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

lol, Yeah, my friend's a natural semi-DJ. Sometimes he comes up with good stuff and other times... well yeah.

If he said it the way I'm picturing it in my mind, I think it was pretty funny

Sounds weird. IMHO I would have said "I totally have a crush on YOU, but I can't do anything until he's out of the picture."

Hmm, but if you do that wouldn't you might as well straight up tell her that you like her, which (as far as I know) is something you're not supposed to do.
