"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Just a question I haven't seen addressed in the forum so far or in the Bible. I am 31 so I figured I'd ask it here and get some more mature responses.

How do you turn a woman down, or NOT show interest? I am not all that good with social stuff as of yet (though the last year has been 10 times better than any other, truth be told!), and I find that when a woman talks to me whom I find uninteresting, I go all rigid and downright unfriendly because I am scared of leading her into thinking I am interested.

So that's two questions. I know it seems like a silly question for a board aimed at picking UP women, but it seems to me like asking out and turning down are two sides to the same coin.
 

"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.

It can be an interesting conundrum to attract various women and have to actually turn down or dissuade their advances.

To answer question #1 How to turn down women with whom you have no interest: Well, you don't want to be a c0ck about it first and foremost. You never know if she has a hotter set of girlfriends. And she could be nuttier than elephant sh!t. Lots of unstable women not used to rejection.

#2 The formula I've used with much success is to totally go AFC on 'em if you want them to leave you alone. Follow them around closely, profess your unrequited love for them constantly, shower them with droll attention. Be THE wussbag piece of sh!t.

Works better than a voodoo charm.

Or she might have that LOW self esteem that makes her eat up the attention, and the "AFC from Hell" plan backfires, and she starts looking at Brides magazine.

Take the simple direct route. "You are like a sister to me." Trust me, this KILLS any hope of a boyfriend/girlfriend thing.

Unless you are sharing fluids with her then you aren't leading her on - don't worry. Talking to a women doesn't mean anything.

Thats a good problem to have anyway. :)

OK, good help, guys.

I guess I just need to work on seperating freindly eye contact and chatter from actual "flirting".
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

If she had the " Low self esteem " she wouldn't approach him at all.

I stand by my suggestion.

Just thought about it... most of them are women with fairly decent self-esteem but are not hot. They're usually older or more feminist-types who are comfortable with being agressive anywhere they go. You wouldn't be able to afc them because they'd just accept it as meaning I was the sensative guy they think they've been looking for.

My town is full of women... so they HAVE to get agressive. :D
