"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.

Hollywood films women

"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.

Most of Hollywood films are showing women as the Hero
This seems like an Anything Else topic...but can you cite some examples? Pretty much every movie that I watch has the male lead as the protagonist.

No kidding, bro. This is an "Anything Else" thread all the way.

As for the OP, sounds like he's been watching too many Tomb Raider movies.

This emoticon is for you, OP: :down:
 

"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.

Speaking of women as the hero, what's with Michael Cera types becoming lead characters in movies now? (I hardly consider him male)

I saw Zombieland tonight, and the main character was this sniveling vagina that I thought must be Michael Cera until I got a better look at him and realized that apparently there are more than one of these sissies running around Hollywood now. The always badass Woody Harrelson co-starred alongside him, but somehow they made sure to keep AFC boy as the hero despite the fact that he was apologizing for everything the whole movie while Woody was taking care of business.

The movie itself was good, but I have a really low tolerance for the whole AFC saves the day and gets the girl thing now. In real life, that kid would have been zombie chow in the first scene and Woody would have been balls deep in this chick that was half his age.
