Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
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.
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.

Q. what's the alpha way to take a dump?
A. take up as much space as possible, eyes fixed at lump of crap. in a loud projecting voice grunt to show that dookie who's the boss
err this thread was a joke and you people took it serious, shows the degree of pathetic questions, by the way that is a clever thinking idea, real simple but very different and funny standing facing towards them, when i read that i actually laughed it was goodOriginally posted by felony
There are certain rules to abide by in elevators. Because there are rules, we as Djs etc, usually break them or bend them to our advantage. The rule of form in elevators is to stand facing the door, and because everyone is in everyone elses personal space most people will look up at the dial displaying the floor level or the buttons next to the door.
Wanna be alpha- then try walking into an elevator and facing everyone, works best if you are one of the last in so your back is to the door, and then look around at everyone, get some EC, try not to be too intimidating and perhaps strike up a 'general' harmless convo about something related to everyone... or at least most people, so in your case maybe something about classes or lecturers, perhaps look at a particular hottie when you pull this off. Then if you get a response, bang, ur in and u take it from there.
See what works, it may only work 1/8 times. But if u do 8 trips a day, then u might have a new girl for lunch each day of the week.
Let us know what happens.
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.

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

People who have to post questions containing the word 'alpha' don't deserve an answer because the question is problematic in itself.
The answer lies in the question itself. For example, only an insecure weiner would even worry and ask questions about what it means to be alpha, and the obvious answer would be to stop being an insecure weiner, meaning that asking questions like "how do I 'alpha' this or that" make you look like an insecure weiner. So, stop looking like an insecure weiner and the problem will fix itself.
Thanks, not like we don't have enough work trying to clear out the crap threads without you making them on purpose. There's a word for what happens to trolls around here...Originally posted by Agressor
