"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.

I was NEVER this bad. Oh, believe me, I've had some pathetic moments in my life but I'm WAY beyond that. WITH that said, however, I'm not incapable of finding the HUMOR in another guy stumbling in this way. Guess what? My friends and I joke about approaches, getting rejected, making stupid mistakes with women, etc. ALL the time. Why? Because in this world you need thick skin. Do I feel bad for the guy? Not really. I don't know him nor do I know whether or not he feels inadequete or in need of advice. Take it as a humorous lesson of what NOT to do.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

Dude, I think this AFC is Mormon...

I've heard stories about some Mormon AFCs praying before their first date, and then telling the girl on their first date that it has been "revealed to them by God" that they should marry her. Not all Mormons are like that, though.

At least he had the guts to talk to her and meet her in the first place, which is more than some AFCs like me can do.
He's probably on some serious anti-depressents and has a problem stopping himself from talking.

This made me sick to my stomach. People like that are beyond help, IMO. He thinks he is really doing the right thing.
 

"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.

That's one reason why I don't feel sorry for him. He seems reasonably comfortable in the way he's approaching her. I don't think he'd be the type to actually look for guidance from the people on SS.

To be like Jesus full of humanity, and being compassionate overflowing with love.
Like when he displayed his temper and overturned the tables of the vendors at the temple throwing things everywhere in his rage? Like when one guy said he needed to bury his recently deceased father before he could follow Jesus and Christ replied, "Let the dead bury their dead"? You mean like when he called the religious leaders of his day 'vipers and sons of vipers'? You're talking about that compassionate-overflowing-with-love Jesus? Just wanna make sure we're talking about the same guy.

and now doesn't wanna hide anything and wants a girl to love him for him.
Actually, what it sounds more like is that he's hurting from being dumped and wants to have his wounds be nursed/mothered by another woman.

He states several times realizing he's probably making her uncomfortable, but he persists in his behavior regardless. Not very loving of him.

Of course, consider too that the object of his admiration didn't mind sharing the poor guy's message with her friend for laughs and then didn't mind that her friend wanted to upload it to the rest of the world so we could all have a laugh at this poor schnook's expense.

And that's the woman that the caller believes that her "heart just glows".

I'm not talking about the kiss ass kind of love but the having respect and dignity for yourself and others kind of love. Where you assert yourself when you see wrong and at the same time having empathy and understanding of the other person. Jesus was care free, simple, told it like it was. He spoke his mind. This is the confidence that women find attractive. His whole way of being or philosophy whatever you wanna describe it makes the whole package. They call Him the perfect man, and holding that title there should be a reason or some benefit to it acting the way He did. He's life seemed like a failure, but infact His life changed all of history. He's what every Don Juan should strive to be. There's a post about some homeless Don Juan that I totally believe cause I ran into one down here and learned a lot from this guy. He was also simple held a part time job but that was about it and hot babes would always come around wanting to be in his company cause this guy respected and loved everybody, girls and guys, but he was no push over and not everything had to do with sex for him and the girls, but anytime he wanted sex they'd give it to him. I would tell him "oh shet dude, who was that? hook me up I like ef her, and he would smile and say there's many other ways to make love." Anyway I want to finish my reply but gotta get to work now, so my point is instead of making fun and joy in someone elses misfortunes just show them respect and dignity, it'll reflect back at you. What you do will come back to you.

You forgot my favorite part, where he makes a whip out of a rope and starts whipping the money changers as he drives them out. It's like Indiana Jones and Temple of Jesus.

Mr Me and Jacob I think both represent valid viewpoints. Love and compassion is the way to go, but tough love has its place as well.

For example, I will relentless mock anyone I know who rides a motorcycle without a helmet and gear. I'll say whatever I can to get under their skin, insult them in front of their woman, friends, strangers, whatever. I'm a complete a55hole about it...because I don't want to see them injured or killed. 'Doing unto others' can mean being a jerk, if it derails them from their own path of ignorance.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

It's not a sin to be angry. So, he did nothing wrong.

Jesus was no whimp either. He didn't beg anyone to come to him. He lets everyone decide for themselves. I don't expect you to believe in him because that's up to you, but give him some credit. He did things most people wouldn't dare to do, and he wasn't scared to do it either.

Yeah he was angry because they were cheating people and within the temple nonetheless. What else is funny Jesus' worst enemy was the "church". Guys who go to church and accept the typical indocterination there tend to act like the guy in this voicemail. Moral of the story if you try to PU at church you still have to be a DJ, just a little slyer about it.

:crackup: I really hope some of the AFC's here are not as bad as that guy. I mean that was just embarrassing. I wasn't even close to that bad in the worst of my AFC days.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
