"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.

Not sure if I'm becoming a mature person or just retarded, but a few days ago I met this girl who was, at most (without makeup), a 6/10.

For this reason alone I didn't even try to hit on her (shallow arent I?), but thinking over it, I had great fun with her at the party, and I realised I actually wouldn't mind dating her.

Whats weirder is that I would take her over this other HB9 girl I knew from university.

I have absolutely NO idea why I'm attracted to her. Normally I can pinpoint it (ie. smooth face, good body, etc). But this time I can't even come close to figuring out the reasons.


Perhaps looks don't matter as much as I think. Or else I'm turning into a woman.
 

"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.

You are starting to go up a level in maturity, and not be so superficial. Good. Looks are just part of what should atract you to a girl.

Relax, you'll grow out of it.:p

It happens occasionally. I remember I used to occasionally have this gangly brunette in a class at uni. She was, like I said, gangly and nothing special about her face. Hair done in weird pony tails. She wasn't attractive at all really. And I wanted to f*ck her senseless. I couldn't tell you why. Just that X-factor thing I guess.

maybe the fact that this girl doesn't need make up is turning you on because she has no need to hide her true self behind a mask (makeup). It either shows high self-esteem or extremely poor or just doesn't care about how men look at her. In which case she is like us. Not really caring with a "I-Don't-Give-A-Sh!t-Attitude"

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Now that you mention it, I recall she has a kind of "dont give a sh!t" attitude, although it isn't obvious (ie. she doesn't do the ****y and funny stuff).

Now if she took more interest in guys, she'd be a hell of a female player, yet nobody could accuse her of being one!
