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.
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.
for getting chicks? is it because the other guys will get jelous and turn their back against youGloriouslyInsane said:For getting chicks i disagree,for making other males jealous i agree![]()
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.
that's soo true..theres nothing more annoying than a group of guys arguing because they all want to go to the place THEY want to go for the night,and not opening up to any other suggestions! :cuss:brucevangeorge said:If you think that you are the so-called self-proclaimed Alpha.. chances are that you aren't.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
True, and wouldn't you think that the problem with most guys is that they worry about social status way more than appealing to women? It's as if just because they're the leader of a bunch of cavemen that women will flock to them. It's crazy what guys will do to define themselves.brucevangeorge said:If you think that you are the so-called self-proclaimed Alpha.. chances are that you aren't.
Very good point. We've all seen it in all areas (even in this forum) the higher you go beyond the masses, the more of a target you become. There's always someone somewhere wanting to knock you down a peg and to climb over you. Not saying that it's right or wrong, it's just the way that it is.Noob said:only bad thing about an alpha male is that they maY GET INTO FIGHTS WITH OTHER ALPHA MALES, OR SOMETHING MORE COMMON PEOPLE IN YOUR GROUP WILL TRY AND DISRESPECT YOU, AND CHALLENGE YOU FOR THE POSITION ( THEY DO IT SUBCONSIOUSLY) AND YOU RISK LOSING YOUR POULARITY AND ALSO BEING TRAMPELLED ON... THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE AND IM NOT EXACTLY THE BIGGEST GUY OR THE MOST VIOLENT, AND NOW I AM IN A BAD POSITION WITH GUYS DISRESPECTING ME FROM ALL ANGLES...
