She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
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.
Don't let a group of women stop you. If the girl of your dreams is surrounded by her friends approach her anyways. Get initial eye contact, smile then approach the group. Introduce yourself to everyone and get take her somewhere where only you two could talk - kindly say: "Excuse me ladies, but could I borrow her for second?". Take her hand and lead.
Thats great advice also but that would only work if you are already aquainted.Originally posted by TyTe`EyEs
Borrowed this from the great Adonis.
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.
As a general rule, don't buy women in clubs/bars drinks.Originally posted by #1 P.I.M.P.
Zero in and focus your attention on her alone. Act like evryone else in the room is gone and its just the two of you. This begins first with eye contact. Then either ask her her name and offer her a drink or try a funny joke of compliment to breake the ice. If she's intrested, shell have no problem parting with her friends for a second. Yu just have to show her your seroius.
Good luck.

Totally agree.Originally posted by wolfie
To all those people who suggest zeroing in on the girl as if nobody else is there - works fine until her friends drag her away or she has to 'get back to her friends' whose approval you havent won yet.
