still curious
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.
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.
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.
Im curious, do you ever get called cute?? Do girls you **** actually tell you that you are hot??In2theGame said:yes i am good looking with the body to go with it.
Sounds like the old men were projecting their blindness on to her then??sozzz said:we walked around and couple old men were hating saying is she blind, why is a beautiful girl like her with me. I just laughed it off.
Not to brag but I do have the looks, been hit on by teachers, young to old women. The only thing I dont got are money and muscle.
Yeah they do, not all the time but i get hot or sexy. The majority of the time i just get looks or stares. I went out last night on Thanksgiving eve and i didnt get any compliments but when i walked in a few bars, the heads were turning. A few funny moments actually, A friend and I walked in this bar in midtown, so he went off to the bathroom quickly and i walked over to sit at the bar before ordering a drink. I walk by and some girl "accidentally" brushes her arm on me and her friends smiled at me but i kept it movin because i wasnt attracted to her. by the bar surrounded by 3 guys, this short busty cutie is staring at me hard. I was waiting to make a move but those the 3 guys kept surrounding her like crazy. I asked her friend about her but she told me she had a bf and those guys were her bf's friends. so i left it alone but a bit later she walked by me and i asked about her bf and she kind of hinted she as a bf but not that serious. The 3 guys and her 2 female friends walked over and C-blocked but she kept staring at me still.BabyFaceComplex said:Im curious, do you ever get called cute??

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Haha i should but nah i wont go that far. Plus i'm honestly not photogenic i hate to take pictures but ive described myself before. Black hair, green/hazel eyes.. tanned skin (Naturally) 6' tall and lean but muscular build, defined jaw (when im low BF) etc. i do get hard times though. Im not gonna lie.. sometimes i see some girls who are thick (not fat) with thick thighs and a nice round azz and i go for them instead of the petite ones and those are the types that give me trouble or even act like they are too good for me. they smile but kind of like the "thanks for the ego boost" thing and thats it. Sometimes i go for a girl that looks average in my book and they act up. Maybe they think im only after one thing... which i am but also never know how well you'd click with someone.Capt.America said:U should post pics In2thegame no homo
You cant be hot and not photogenic, if you are doing poorly in online dating its not because you arnt photogenic but because women are fussy as **** with photos.In2theGame said:Plus i'm honestly not photogenic

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
The above is why I roll my eyes when people who claims looks don't matter much cite anecdotes about unattractive guys with beautiful girls.sozzz said:I.E: I took her to a casino and we walked around and couple old men were hating saying is she blind, why is a beautiful girl like her with me. I just laughed it off.
It's all about how you carry yourself. Not to brag but I do have the looks, been hit on by teachers, young to old women.
Yup, this is exactly my case.Mike32ct said:Agree with Yuppaz. You could be a very good looking guy with poor body language or awkward poses.
I dont know about that but i hate to take pictures, in my opinion i dont come out "right" in them but i hardly ever did the online dating thing. The last time i was meeting girls online was from myspace in 2005. I had a lot of girls as friends. I remember i had two girls fighting each other over me in the comment section lol! they were alright though, not super hot or anything. Overall i got a message from a girl who wasnt all that hot but cute and she seemed cool, I was thinking of her as just another girl i was trying to bang but when we met... That meeting turned into a 5 year relationship and fell in love with each other so thats why i said before that you never know who your going to click with, it may just be the girl you never thought. I ended up deleting all the girls and that was it... I never did the online thing again. Now i just go out and meet girls and talk to them.BabyFaceComplex said:You cant be hot and not photogenic, if you are doing poorly in online dating its not because you arnt photogenic but because women are fussy as **** with photos.
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.
