You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
That's what I was thinking. The guy is a pretty good looking dude, and he has a very articulate voice. Just that alone would give him a step up.Zarky said:that guy is good looking enough that he has a major advantage over 95% of other dudes. Good points he makes though.
Yeah, that's the basic tl;dr for the above posters lol. I've read his site though (http://www.campuscharmer.com) and it's worth a look, basic info, nothing groundbreaking--what I like is how it's presented though. Following on what BJ said he doesn't take himself too seriously.Audiophile said:That's what I was thinking. The guy is a pretty good looking dude, and he has a very articulate voice.

His message is pretty clear though, go out and actually apply the things you read.

What if you do them all at the same time? What will happen if you go do the hardest, most awkward things, when you're afraid of approaching chicks?
Two Step said:Norweigan,
Well you can do that, and it wont hurt. Personally id recommend increasing the hardness of the situations at a logical pace. This way you can pick up alot of good experiences that fuel you to get better and give you confidence
Just think if you were playing rock band on the hardest level (notes flying everywhere) and have never played it before. After about 10 trys youd be like fuck this this
But if you start on the easier levels and master those, youll be having fun while learning alot. Just be sure to keep challenging yourself once you get something down
