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.
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.
Think this basically sums it up. There have been a couple of times where I've been persistent, and they've allowed it to go on, so I know they're BSing, but often times I'm stuck as to how to respond to it in the heat of the moment without coming off as a rapist.DonS said:This is code for "I'm not attracted to you enough to do "that"". Trust me, if she was infatuated with you, which she should of been if you were a true DJ, she'd be begging to do it for you.
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.
There is a difference between what a woman says and what a woman does. Some girls say they'll never date a coworker, but next thing you know, they're banging the person in the cubicle next to you.AmIAFC said:Have you ever encountered this? When you try to get a girl to get a little more freaky, she pulls out with that card. How do you respond to such nonsense? Should you respect it?
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.
Lol thats complete bollocks. I had a girl who would suck my d.ick, let me fvck her in the ass etc, basically everything except actual, 'straight' sex. She would call ME and offer to do stuff, but she was a strict Catholic, i.e no sex before marriage.DonS said:This is code for "I'm not attracted to you enough to do "that"".

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.
