"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.

Actually, there's one more girl who was interested last night (I think). I'm in line at the bar. I look behind me to see if there's any hotties giving me the eye or proximity. Sure enough, there's a demure looking brunette wrapped up in a hoodie right behind me. Even though she is covered up, she is beautiful. She has perfect white teeth, beautiful complexion and face, and a reserved personality which turns me on ridiculously. I tell her she has a nice necklace.

We start chatting and introduce ourselves. As I extend my hand for a handshake, she squeezes my hand and holds it tight. She pulls me in and whispers in my ear. I do the same.

I start to give her some IOI's saying I like her shy personality. She seems to be come even more reserved. She folds her arms. I turn away. She starts talking to me again, but when I talk to her, she still seems very reserved.

Did I read this one properly? How would you have handled this situation? It seemed like I was getting mixed signals, and I just gave up out of frustration...
 

"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.

What exactly did she whisper in your ear?

Also... at first, before she became more reserved, was she enthusiastic to talk to you? Solid eye contact? Did you notice her being any less reserved with others after you turned away? It sounds to me like low IL or a heavy case of social anxiety.

At first, she was giving me IOI's like squeezing my hand, and leaning in. But when I gave her some IOI's back, like saying I liked her shy personality she became even MORE reserved.

Maybe she didn't like the fact that you told her she was shy? She probably felt embarassed by it. That's my guess

Naw, man, we only talked a few minutes. I felt like she wasn't showing enough interest, or that she was giving me mixed signals, so first I ended the convo, she started it up again, but then I ended it again, when she didn't seem to be warming up to me as much as I wanted or expected...
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

There ARE no shy girls.

When their clothes are off, HELL BREAKS LOOSE.
