"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.

.... my last thread was soo conviniently closed
down right before i could even reply..




NOT AN ENDING, ONLY A BEGINNING
-originally posted by Rollo-

Please permit me too respond…


{Please do NOT be fooled that all it takes is to use 'power plays' or tactics (high value/status)and thats all it takes to maintain a healthy relationship.}

Maybe not, but ask Mr. Tomassi if whether it is more important to win a battle or the war. Looking at marriages from many peers older and younger, all I hear is how the Mrs. Got over on me this that and the other. Now if they started disagreeing with wives, is this grounds for divorce? More than likely not. If you say no to your boss, will he or she fire you? It depends. If so, your azz was already on thin ice. Playing power plays allow components remind the other components the essence of their true value in their relationship.


it's a component in a relationship, but theres much more in
order to making it work...



{Not only til i realized that mentality creates resentment and alot of anger in the relationship. Is this a girl that you love and respect? or is this just 'another girl'.
This dosen't mean dropping your nutts and permanently gluing you lips to a girls a$$, what it means is that there must be compromise...sometimes ALOT of it.}

You know..this is where you start to sound like some wounded female trying wonder why her tactics caused some guy to pull her card. In effect leaving her where she stood. All because she thought she was cute. You also sound like you loose a lot of these compromising battles, because you probably give in more than she does. Can’t you see this is a revolutionary site? It challenges societies’ ideas of women should be in a age of Oprah and high rates of divorce. I never heard of a woman leaving a man for a wimp, who can’t lay pipe. Think about it. Think of how many guys lost out to older guys who had their stuff together in terms of women. If you can’t understand this then my assumption is correct. Furthermore, respect is something you have to earn, still. Hell, you’ve been in two LT relationships your whole life. Did you love any of these women? I bet you did. Maybe. Did you respect your partner with equal value? I want to hear this. Did you ever go to dinner and look over at some woman who had bigger breast and a rounder biscuit than your mate? Did you look without feeling guilty?

That was my problem in the past though..i ALWAYS had to
have the power in the relationship and seldom did i compromise or really listen to her needs entirly.It really was my way or no way and that's where it hurt things the most. I had my sh*t together and i took care of buisness, but there wasn't really a balance and i was brutish at times..and that only made things
worse.I respected her, but i still kinda looked down on her in a way...




{Understanding, emotional/mental support ,patience,being mature and being a MAN about things. }

This is a true statement. Actually, not true. Most men aren’t these things. I have too ask if these things are important, not to be funny, why have you only been in long term relationships? If you know the key, why not be married by the age of 22? I know why it’s not a choice you wanted to make. It’s about choices. And freedom to make choices without someone pressuring them into making a potential mistake.

why just two? because i decided that after the last one and
how hurt i was by it and how stubborn and set in my ways i can be, i must change things first in order to have better relationships..where most suffer from having no control, i suffered from wanting too much control over things.Being the dominate part and always insisting on things my way. Sure, it's an
alpha trait or whatever you guys wanna call it, but it's only
gotten me nothing but trouble in the past.Not controling as
possessive insecure boyfriend, but controling as, everything has to be my way-like if we got in an argument over something


{I have a nagging suspicion that alot of guys that have never had serious relationships or girlfriends may make a lot of mistakes-fearing that they will be 'AFC' or whatever non-sense,and that the girl will leave or cheat}.

You’ve only interacted with two women intimately. I have more experience within the last two years than you the five. Me throwing out the garbage is based on my ability to instinct from past experience. Hell I was an AFC with this one girl, who by the way was LT, when it got bad at the end I wouldn’t e surprised if some dude was plowing her as she was drifting away from me. I wouldn’t be surprised. I am the sum of my existence. I can only speak from my experience and pass it on to a guy in need.

Oh really?
and how would you know that exactly? because i have had only 2 LTRs you assume i was twidling my thumbs and
crying over them? give me a break and don't think soo highly of yourself. I have had plenty of experiances with woman and i know
enough that alot of this PUA type stuff WILL get your foot in the
door in terms of sex and the initial attraction phases of a short-term relationship...but in the long run , these tactics don't work forever. Intitial attraction is nothing like an emotional attatchment that has been built up through the years of trial and effort,good and bad times, thick and thin. Relationships last because of the
effort that both parties contribute,and fail when they don't.



{By holding back and not fully letting yourself go, it will totally limit your satisfation and enjoyment of the entire relationship.}

A wise man once said in a Gatorade commercial, “It’s not all about starting, it’s about finishing.” This was Michael Jordan. Never give out everything you had in the first weeks of dating. Hold something back for yourself. If it ends, you still have something left. If it doesn’t she continue to be fascinated with her findings.

geez, holding back as in forcing yourself to
hold things back that you really want to share with her..
or things you want to experiance with her but are too afraid to
in fear of looking like a chump for doing it..


{I can't help but laugh in my mind that there are guys 'pulling back' when they really want to talk about things with their girlfriend or wanting to buy flowers to suprise her
but feel like a chump for doing it-give me a break!}

talk about things like when she says shes 'okay' when theres
clearly something wrong, when she says leave me alone but really means 'hold me'...


There’s no need. This board provides enough feedback for the fellas if needed. Besides women do it all the time, consulting with GF instead talking their Man, about the issue. And usually it’s petty.

{anyways, for all the guys that has never been in a serious relationship before..you're in for a really really really big suprise.Because even if you CAN get the beautyfull girl , will you know what to do when it comes to keeping a quality woman and maintaining the romance and attraction of a long term relationship?}

No, but the confidence he displayed can go along ways. Besides always better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.


{Are you gonna trust yourself to make the right descision?}

Who knows? You live and learn. It may take years before you truly see an outcome of a choice that was made years before.


{And if so , don't you think it's kinda SAD that you have to put on such an act with someone you love soo dearly? when she is genuine and real and you are..
TING.}

You’re a fool if you think the women that you’ve been with never acted. Ha. Does she really like how you play Playstation or Xbox when she comes over. Or how she likes your boy that continuously calls women “chicks” and “broads” or my favorite “stunts”. LOL!

oh give me a break with the mumbo jumbo about how
all girls are attracted to those ridiculous arch-types...
and girls do 'act' but it's not like it's a 24/7 deal with i
suspect most guys are in hopes of meeting woman.
mr.'alpha' when they're really mr.dorkos inside.


{Don't be fooled that you have to be some arrogant jerk off in order to attract, meet and keep a spectacular girl- if thats who you naturally are-fantastic.}

Why not? Most of these probably couldn’t get a word off before this girl acted cute. Maybe a good Offense is a good Defense after all?..

great.. more card-board cut out 'alpha' drones..
whats worse then an AFC? an afc acting like he's alpha..


After all, you did attract her with the little tricks and gimmicks and 'acting' like an 'alpha' , right? What's her reaction gonna be when and if you reveil the
real you? Whatever it may be? however dorky, nerdy, whatever quirks about you it may be? whatever that makes you uniqueand makes you different from every tom,steve and harry out there?


You don’t get it. These tactics are no different than those used by females to get their man. If I can get you to keep and open mind, after a sales pitch, I can skillfully sell you the product. Since I know the product well, it will increase my chances. No one here says they follow the procedures word for word. You can’t. They can’t. Sometimes in game speed, they might forget a thing or two. But if a guy can get a girl too be open minded, as the commercial says, “Impossible is Nothing.”

i totally understand..but at some point, that persona, those
walls, it all has to come down eventually- in order to be the genuine person you are and be able to be with the girl you love completly.No not by spilling your guts to her or worshiping her,geez..i feel like everythig i say gets twisted up into some 'afc' whatever somehow!!
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Why is there a concerted anti-DJ effort here?

Friv has just been a contrarian from day 1 and hates everything about DJ principles and this site. He's busted his chops trying to prove us wrong. I also see others are joining him.

Perhaps Friv and his clan might be right, but even if you are, why hang out here? You guys don't subscribe to the beliefs of this board, so why get on here and try to say we're always wrong? Or we're old and bitter? Or we don't know what we're doing? Save us some band width and try to convince others somewhere else of your beliefs. Perhaps there's a sopuppydog.com site.

It seems about as smart as being a Republican or Democrat and getting on the opposite party's message boards, trying to shout down what they believe in.

It's not going to work.

* By the way, you misspelled "cynic" like three different ways. It's cynic ... by age 28 you should know this.

who said i am against it? i am all for inner game and the DJ
way...
:cool: and we aren't trying to convince anyone that this way is better or that way.., i for one am just speaking my mind on the subject.

:up:

i just think it's funny that someone got a chance to speak their mind about my view point and then it was closed all of a sudden...how convinient is that?! :crackup:

it's total censorship and meant to 'keep the waters safe'...
oh i'd hate to be the one to ruin everyones idealistic
fantasies about being 'the man' and being able to keep and
sustain a healthy LTR without any effort whatso ever...

No way in h*ll this guy is 25. You're just trying to argue and make some kind of point. You are helping no one, making yourself dumber (if that's possible) in the process. Take your teenage smartass mouth elsewhere...
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

why is that? because he actually had multple LTRS threw his Teenage and early adult yrs? and spent a few yrs just going for the Pyssy?


if a guy is 30 and he has never had a ltr or been in love...he knows more by age then someone with expierence???

im not saying you havent...but this age thing is rediculous.

I know I mature and change yr by yr...month by month, day by day.

that doesnt mean you cant accumulate yrs of expiernce before the age of 25.

Im sorry that I had my first love at age 14 as well....and was involved with women from that moment forward..its not my fault guys are in there 20;s and still havent had that. but know more then I do about women?

we bring up a great point...I personally have never been used or hurt..there is a reason, actually many reasons....but since the guys here cant understand that..its almost pointless to argue it..but I will keep trying

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I can't believe that people with the ability to use the internet actually take pleasure in finding such stupid ass ways to argue value their own self worth on sosuave.com. It baffles me that both of these fukktards don't realize the eternal pissing contest that they participate in simply cannot be won. Yet these assclowns keep breathing our precious air and making a complete mockery out of themselves. Yes, you too Jcrew.

Thugo, I wish you great happiness with your herpes you fukking fag, I bet you're at home right now kicking your dog and yelling at your myspace girlfriend...

"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.

Just a bit of advice...it's really pointless to try to have any real mature discussion in this discussion. Although the title may say "Mature Men" it's nothing of the sort. The "men" in this section (aside from a few) are less mature than the kids in the highschool section. Some of the worst behave guys on this site and the most IMMATURE are over 30 years old according to their profiles.

And are you are basing your presumptions of this from the 'runaway' success of you "relationship" with the 12 year old or the one you had from age 17 to 20?

That was my problem in the past though..i ALWAYS had to have the power in the relationship and seldom did i compromise or really listen to her needs entirly.
Perhaps you'd like to enlighten us as to what the 'needs' of a 12 y.o. girl are and how they are similar to the 'needs' of an adult woman?

i decided that after the last one and how hurt i was by it and how stubborn and set in my ways i can be, i must change things first in order to have better relationships..where most suffer from having no control, i suffered from wanting too much control over things.Being the dominate part and always insisting on things my way. Sure, it's an alpha trait or whatever you guys wanna call it, but it's only gotten me nothing but trouble in the past.
According to your epmphatic testimony, your last 'real' relationship ended 5 years ago when you were 20 and began when you were 17 - I would assume immediately after your first 'real' LTR with the 12 y.o. Are you saying that in those five years you discovered that you needed to change your personality to better identify with and accomodate women? How many women have you been with in this 5 year stretch and how did they respond to this
new' approach? You haven't mentioned anything about your current personal life; could it be that the reason you feel so strongly about your prepubescent and adolscent 'dating' experiences is predicated on these being your only available frame of reference? If your understanding is as accurate as you profess, why then haven't you settled down, "ended the game" so to speak, with your soulmate at 25? One would think that a man such as yourself would have women lined up around the block to be pampered, romanced and "compromised" with.

I have had plenty of experiances with woman and i know enough that alot of this PUA type stuff WILL get your foot in the door in terms of sex and the initial attraction phases of a short-term relationship...but in the long run , these tactics don't work forever. Intitial attraction is nothing like an emotional attatchment that has been built up through the years of trial and effort,good and bad times, thick and thin. Relationships last because of the effort that both parties contribute, and fail when they don't.
According to my watch, you have 5 years of unverified experience. Running away from home and couch surfing at 15 doesn'tmake you an acredited marriage counselor. That said, I do agree with what you've posted here. PUA skills are like giving dynamite to children. You can indeed perfect a routine that will, with a certain degree of predictability get you laid and in the door. In fact I all too often post threads about the necessity to devlop the DJ mindset so as to avoid the pitfalls of relapsing into AFC mental schemas, ONEitis and passive supplication once guys are in the door. But what you've posted thus far smacks of just this very relapse. DJ mentality is positive masculinity, and this means living up to a woman's expectation of you to be the confident decision maker

The Law of Equal Value Contribution:
In order for a relationship to work in the long term, both people must contribute roughly equal amounts of value to the other person's life. If they don't, the person contributing more value will become dissatisfied because they know they could get more value in a relationship than they are getting. They will then subconsciously or consciously sabotage and destroy the relationship.

The Cardinal Rule of Relationships
In any relationship, whether familial, personal, romantic or business, the person with the most power is the one who needs the other the least.

geez, holding back as in forcing yourself to
hold things back that you really want to share with her..or things you want to experiance with her but are too afraid to in fear of looking like a chump for doing it..
Things you really want to share with her such as? It's far too easy to be nebulous here. Being a DJ doesn't mean to live a 'false life', it's pretty self-evident that this will never work in the long term. Rather it's to remake yourself in a positive, genuine manner. The problem you have with this is that it doesn't fit in with your concept of patronizing and identifying with women in order for them to trade their intimacy for it.

talk about things like when she says shes 'okay' when theres clearly something wrong, when she says leave me alone but really means 'hold me'...
Of course the other option is she does think you're a creep and want's to be left alone, but this interpretation never enters your consideration because you've been socialized to assume the feminine perspective.

Besides always better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.
How naively quaint and wrong. So essentially you're saying that if you could see the future and knew with %100 certainty that a woman would betray and leave you after 3 or 4 years you'd still begin the relationship?

Better to ask for forgivness than ask for permission.


Or how she likes your boy that continuously calls women “chicks” and “broads” or my favorite “stunts”.
And in the real world this'll be the guy she'll cheat on you with because he retains the confidence and identity you modify and throw away in order to 'compromise' for her. This guy doesn't compromise and for that your girlfriend will suck him off in his monster truck.

oh give me a break with the mumbo jumbo about how all girls are attracted to those ridiculous arch-types... and girls do 'act' but it's not like it's a 24/7 deal with i suspect most guys are in hopes of meeting woman. mr.'alpha' when they're really mr.dorkos inside.
See, the problem with this logic is that 'most guys' are like you. They believe in the Soulmate Myth, they believe in the Savior Trap, they believe that the more they identify with a woman the strong their connection will be. They'll voluntarily surrender their ambitions and alter or discard any dream they had to merit her intimacy in order to escape this popularized notion that "they'll live a life of lonliness and quite desperation" into their old age and die unloved in some assisted living facility.

More guys are AFCs than are DJs courtesy of this constant state of feminization in western culture. This is why you rely on cliched one-liners pulled from what some teenage girl told you or the latest romantic comedy you wen to see with that girl you were trying to show your 'feminine side' to in the hopess that she'd appreciate this and want to fvck you. In fact far too many PUAs are themselves AFCs and only revert bact to this ince they do have a foot in the door.

DJ mentality is a slap in the face to guys like you because it forces you to confront these very ego-invested beliefs that you think 'ought' to be true, but aren't often evidenced in womens behaviors, so there is a seed of doubt. It's like telling a mother that they're not raisng their child right or you're not living your life correctly - it's very accusatory and self-judgmental and necessarily so. This is then perceived as arrogance and thus the AFC considers it an attack. The response to which is almost universally a rationalization for their own mindset and a seeking for a common affirmation from those AFC who'll agree with him.

great.. more card-board cut out 'alpha' drones..whats worse then an AFC? an afc acting like he's alpha..
..but at some point, that persona, those walls, it all has to come down eventually- in order to be the genuine person you are
And who is this 'genuine person' of whom you speak? What constitutes a genuine persona or personality? I'm not sure how educated your past 2 "meaningful" relationships made you regarding personality psychology, but fortunately for you this just so happens to be my area of specialization in my post-grad work, so allow me to illustrate a few things for you.

Personality is not static. Get that in your head right now, because from what you've posted thus far it appears that subscribe to a common fallacy. You are who you say you are. There are influencing factors in your experience and in your reality that are variables in determining your personality. You are not the same personality with, and you exhibit different behavioral characteristics with your mother than you do your boss or your best friend - and this difference persists between girls you're sarging, girlfriends you might have and your wife.

Personality is also mutable over time. I am not the same person that my wife married 9.5 years ago or even 5 years ago. There are definite traits and characteristics we carry over into our subsequent personalities over time and/or in response to particular settings and conditions, but to suggest that one person is genuine and another isn't is complletely subjective. Who am I or who are you to determine whether a guy who's decided he needs a change in his life and has decided to change his mind about himself and begins to adopt a more masculine, 'alpha' mindset (which is reflected in his behavior) is being 'genuine.' This forum and others like it are filled with guys who used to be insecure, soft-spoken loosers who decided to change their minds about themselves and found success not only with women (as a by-product), but also in business and many other aspects of their lives. They made a conscious choice to become someone else and to become someone better than what they were. Are they 'playing Alpha'? Does it matter if they happen to be more comfortable than you with faking it till they make it?

"We are what we consistently do." - Aristotle
 

"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.
