"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.

Hey Guys,

For all those who can't follow through with the 3 second rule - maybe you disagree with it, too shy, etc, don't worry.

I've been submitting questions to an online question site and it's quite interesting. Every woman who responded to my 3 second rule pretty much said that the guy is desperate and to them creepy. Personally, I think the 3 second rule should be used to show 'interest' ie. long-distance flirt, eye contact, smile, you get the drift. Then if you get a bite, move in.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

First of all, you're missing the point.

The 3-second rule accomplishes 2 things:

1-You don't have time for your BS mind chatter to to talk you out of approaching.

2-If you get EC and don't approach her within 3 seconds, you're in danger zone. You appear stalkerish. Don't ask women for advice on this, trust me.

You don't need EC to approach a girl.

Yes - don't waste your time with any advise from women. It is useless.

Magnatolia,

Talk from experiences.

Hypotheticals are a waste of time.

A girl told me that she'd sleep with any guy who approached her and produced, in one hand, a yo-yo and the other, a condom.

It must work. I haven't tried it though.

I recomend all of you try it.

Being a keyboard jockey and realing off womens advice is an exellent pastime.

P.S. I'm trying to keep sarcasm to a minimum. Sometimes its unavoidable.
 

"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.

The 3-second rule is just there for you to force yourself to approach when you're starting out. It's not live-or-die-by. If you followed it religiously in a crowded room or at a party I'm sure you'd creep a hell of a lot of ladies out anyhow.
