"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.

I've been watching some of MeHow's videos (a lot of his stuff is on YouTube). I can't believe how gay this guy comes across....Anyway:

I don't think there would be too much argument on this forum that one of the most AFC things you can do is say I love you to a girl you haven't known for very long. Yet MeHow is constantly saying "I love you" and "let's get married" to girls he has just met. He gets away with it because he says it so lightheartedly that it's apparent that it has no deep meaning behind it. For example a girl says something he likes, he says "I love you" and gives her a hug. He's coming across as a light, fun, high energy guy. Apparently the girls are responding to his "I love you"s and such as IOIs. I was wondering what people here think of this as a tactic.

I keep coming back to how gay this guy sounds. It freaks me out because we are told to be so masculine yet here's a guy being successful who sounds very feminine.
 

"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.

I thought I was the only one that thought he came across as GAY. Either way, from the infield footage, he gets results. Mehow isn't the only one that says "I love you" Hell, Mystery says this all the time. "I love you, give me a hug, okay, thats all you're getting "

Personally I wouldn't say this, I'd push-pull transition with more towards "You're a little sh!t, give me a hug".

Sinn and AFCAdam are my two favourites when it comes to all this Pickup stuff and It DOES work. Mehow's a little too try-hard and feminine for me.

I haven't looked that deeply into Mystery so I didn't know he said that. MeHow is a follower of his of sorts so it doesn't surprise me.

Most of the pickup advice you see around here is all about being a challenge, or playing hard to get, or making the girl think you're not that interested in her. There isn't much on actually being affectionate toward the girl, yet I know that has to be a part of it (like MeHow's "I love you"s, I guess). It's just that no one ever talks about it, it's all only confrontational stuff.

Personally I wouldn't say this, I'd push-pull transition with more towards "You're a little sh!t, give me a hug".
I like that. I have trouble with push-pull, and that sounds very simple.

I'll have to look into their stuff.
I think part of MeHow's success is that he comes across as one of the girls. I hate to say this, but since watching him I have actually started throwing in an occasional comedic gay voice into my conversations with women. Something like "I got a new haircut, do you love it?". They always laugh, so how bad can it be?

I used to think he was gay until he made out with his wingman in one of his vids. That just confused the crap out of me. But he still got the girl, so maybe there's a lesson to be learned...

What? Is that true or just a joke?
I never thought he was literally gay (although I'm very naive about this sort of thing), I just thought he SOUNDED gay.

If you think about it though, it makes sense. Here's a guy who's interested in making films. Most gay guys get along really well with women. So if he wanted to make some films that could make him some money (and that he could put on his resume), it seems like a logical step to take.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.
