Francisco d'Anconia
Master Don Juan
Robert Downey's Tony Stark character in the upcoming Ironman movie. He has c/f down cold.
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.
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.

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 don't know if it were AFC or not. He was able to recognize that he cared for this particular woman more than any of the others (wasn't it over a thousand). I think it's pretty impressive to be able identify one that stands above the others while being able to have countless to choose from.Nexus Polaris said:Ironically, Don Juan DeMarco turns AFC at one point in the movie. He removes his mask he swore to always wear to try to get his lover to forgive him for having so many partners. Not only does she not forgive him, but she takes his mask and leaves.
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Yeah, Antonio does well in the Zorro flicks but I would definitely say that his character in Desparado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico had a more entense type of charisma; attitude for days.DJDamage said:The Mask of Zorro.
Watch how a petty thief by the name of Alejandro(Banderas) transform into Don Diego Vega/Zorro with the help of the old Zorro (Hopkins) and using his new suave personality able to seduce the hot Elana (Zeta Jones) and saves the day. Lots of good DJ stuff in this movie.

There is no way in hell I'm going to start watching that movie as some allegory to the death of the AFC... It a good movie with good action and a dam good modern day version of Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" with people's perceptions might not see the world what it is actually is and people's resistance to new ideas (blue pill/red pill), but starting to put stuff that was not meant by the writers is too much of a strech to me and as a dj inspration...jackmode211 said:Neo from the matrix......
...he was born a slave. in a sense an AFC.....then through a process of self realization he became the one(don juan)
the matrix is the dream world pulled over our eyes...(by the media) women are the prize/ buy flowers/pay for everything/write poems....untill the day comes where you must choose the red or blue pill (continue in your AFCness or take steps to become a don juan)....hopefully you will choose the right choice and become free....
agent smith kills neo....
....something must kill the AFC within you to move onto the next step....
Neo wakes up realizing that he is the one....and can see the matrix for what it really is....
When the AFC within you is dead the Don juan in you can grow...and you can see the world for what it realy is ...and how it really works....
....think about it....watch the matrix again...
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.
I kinda missed the link too.TheHumanist said:There is no way in hell I'm going to start watching that movie as some allegory to the death of the AFC...

Yep and in the movie Once Upon a time in Mexico, Depp also played a cool suave character.Francisco d'Anconia said:Yeah, Antonio does well in the Zorro flicks but I would definitely say that his character in Desparado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico had a more entense type of charisma; attitude for days.
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.
