She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
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.
Interesting ... I think I have a female friend who may be doing the same thing to me. We have known each other for years, and have both been attracted to each other at the wrong times. She has recently came out of a relationship, and I invited her twice out to movie or show premieres (One of the the perks of my job) but each time, she said she would call me to let me know if she could make it, but has not called me either time. Still trying to work out whether she is trying to ditch me, or whether she is playing hard to get ...Originally posted by BuckwildNYC
The funny thing is that when a girl really likes you you can do just about anything and she will still like you. I have two friends who are girls. I'm not attracted to them at all but they are in LOVE with me. I'm usually pretty nice to them but I abuse them so they don't get the wrong idea. It's funny cause I think it makes them want me more lol. I dont' return their calls or I'll bust their balls all day and it drives them crazy.
So the ignoring thing will definately work if you've already established some attraction from her. If she's not feeling you then you could probably either ignore her or kiss her ass all day and it won't make much of a difference.
