This Times For Real

I read this through for the first time slowly and actually thought about it. thanks pook.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
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.
Kill that desperation!

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
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.

Pook thank you for this post

I was just sitting in my chair and decided to reread Be A Man and Kill That Desparation. while reading this my thoughts cleared and I went back to the time of my first girl that I got and still had nice guy left in me. I just realized that I had signs of desparation in me.
Thanks for the boost up.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
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.
Heya, I really enjoyed this post. Highly inspiring, motivation and practical. I've already been trying to apply your advice.
I'm glad nobody who's replied has seen it this way, but one issue with your prince description is it could lead the reader to think he needs to become arrogant, pompous and develop a serious superiority complex. If you ever wanted to edit your post, a clarification about this would be a good addition.

This is one of the most enlightening posts I have ever read. I wish we could get more posts like these.
"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.

I do not agree with that.
Being a challenge does work with girl but as far as I am concerned I want a girl to be available and madly in love with me.
Man I love all Pooks work. He really is lightyears ahead of most of the PUA giants. I know a few guys personally that rival him, but Pook is the daddy of Sosuave. 
Guys, seriously give him rep for his posts. He deserves them more than most people.

Change of Rule?
"Imagine if a woman did all of the above to you. Imagine if a woman was obsessed with you, always calling you, always available, and always spending her free time for your. Any interest you had for this woman would soon evaporate. Why? Because in your own mind you are thinking two things: "No one else must want her," and "If I can get her obsessed about me, I know I can get better girls to be interested in me." Her desperation is turning you off. The same is true for women."
- This seems true if you're in the dating stage of the relationship. Obviously, the attraction will deplate if the guy is always available and not a chase. But, for example, I am in a relationship with a girl and it seems like I want to spend all my free time with her and call her whenever I have a chance. Isn't that love? Should I still play these games to keep the interest level high? Basically, the question I would like to know is if this rule changes once the guy is in a relationship, or if he should still make the girl WANT him.

The point is that you should get other stuff in your life going on so that you don't have enough free time to be wanting to call or be with this girl all the time.
Everyone has hobbies (and if you don't have some, you should get some!) and they should take priority when you have some free time. I'm not saying completely ignore women, but do your own thing too. You'll likely find a lot more pleasure in doing something you truly enjoy than pursuing or just spending time with a girl in all your free time.

Dude, stop and think about your own question for a few minutes. Why should the principles that landed you the girl suddenly change once she is your girlfriend? You think that now you have a license to suffocate the girl? Please think again. Her tolerance for boredom doesn't simply change.jrsully88 said:
I think, at the moment, you're viewing this very superficially and not really grasping the underlying principles. The purpose of being unavailable is two fold. Firstly, it shows her that you have a life and priorities away from her. Secondly, it prevents your relationship from reaching saturation point - you keep her in a state of perpetually wanting a little bit more.
If you think about it in this way, would you be so ready to abandon these principles? Would you want to show her that you are not the man she thought you were when you were dating?
Another problem I see is your use of the word 'games'. Again, this demonstrates that you are not fully understanding the underlying principles. As Split Infinity said above:
If you have your life in order, if you have your priorities straight, there should be no need for games, no need for pretense - you will naturally be unavailable.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I've found that the scent of desperation in the nostrils of women is like the scent of fear in the nostrils of a dog...undeniable to them, unattractive to them, and UNFORTUNATE for US.

Exactly Victory, but what is really this "desperation" that Pook talks about?
Well, it goes back to what I was saying about the difference between the AFC and the PUA.
It's the Nice Guy that doesn't even EMBRACE his sexuality (be horny around a girl)
It's the AFC that does embrace his sexuality, but yet..he can't control it properly. This is what this post is about. Kill that desperation.
But it's the PUA that knows how to control and channel his horniness, to produce relaxed natural horny states in himself and the chick.
Now that is a beautiful thing.
And oh yeah, Pook is the man!

Bumping this MFer
"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.
