Disdain things you cannot have: Ignoring them is the best revenge.
"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.
I was going over the 48 laws of power and this one setence jumped out at me

"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.
Mine is law number 48:
Assume Formlessness:
"By taking a shape, by having a visible plan, you open yourself to attack. Instead of taking a form for your enemy to grasp, keep yourself adaptable and on the move. Accept the fact that nothing is certain and no law is fixed. The best way to protect yourself is to be as fluid and formless as water; never bet on stability or lasting order. Everything changes."
I think the above statment pretty much sums up the difference between a PUA and a DJ.

I was just thinking about Bruce Lee and how he complements formlessness...
His quote about being water is excellent, formless, but if you put all of yourself into what your goal is you can cause a tremendous crash...

hmm on a side note
be a tsunami... it is in the media that 3 times as many women died, from the christmas tsunami last year, compared to men.

I always crack open the 48 laws book and read a few pages every now and then. Very interesting, yet basic stuff that can be applied towards almost any aspect of your life.

im on law 8 right now, good book so far.
"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.

lol I just finished reading that yesterday. Good book.
Ya... Def. a Dope Book!
I'm on my 2nd round of it right now.
I'm sure you've all read "the Art of Seduction" by R.Greene as well.
More devilishly thoroughy insight. Delicious!
Anyone read his... 36 Stategies of War?
Pretty much his break down of SunTzu's: Art of War.
No doubt its got to be of the same brilliance, as his other books.

36 Strategies doesnt come out till Jan or Feb 2006
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
