"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

so guys, what the key to NOT misreading friendliness for flirting?

is the only way to know to ask a woman out?

or is it possible to know whether she is flirting or just being friendly?

"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.

In my opinion, there really isn't a way to know for sure. Some guys have these "formulas" they've contrived, where they think they can decipher a women's true intentions, but I think it's hog wash.

The human pscyhe is far too complex for a simple formula to be accurate.

Many girls like to flirt just to inflate their egos. I mean, if there was possible to know 100% sure what is flirting and what is not, it would be still unsafe because many girls DO FLIRT when in fact they just want the ego boost.

The only way to know is to ask her out.

Exactly. It can be very frustrating because you want "clear" signals but some women don't care, they want to KNOW you want them regardless of any intentions they may or may not have with you.

YEAH.

But please, don't get that "oh, so if I ask her out and she says NO then I'll give her a egoboost yadda yadda yadda" crap. Always remember: it's about YOU, not her. If you want her, GO FOR IT. Do NOT make any excuses for your desires. If she says NO, it's always good, because you now KNOW that it is not going to happen: you can find another one without any regrets :D
 

"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.

EVERYTHING IS AN IOI. Assume everything she does to you means she wants to jump you. Play it that way, then you don't have to try and figure out what it means.

for there to be "fliriting" there needs to be sexual tension (not just on your side). Touching, dirty looks, coded sexual coments......
