"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.

Hi everyone,

Here are the approaches I've done in the past six months. They are only quite a few. I know that I have to approach some more in order to 'up' my game.

But before I do that, I will post these previous approaches in order to get some feedback from all of you.

Here they are, as far as I can recall. Note that these were translated from my native language.

Approach 1
This girl about an 8, petite and a dancer figure. 5 years younger than me. She's 17 and I'm 22.

When I first made eye contact with this girl she was sticking her tongue out to me in a childish way, I was surprised she dared to do that. :eek:

I approached her later in that evening -- unintentionally. In my evening class we had a surprise test and I did not have any paper. The bookstore was closed, so I've been asking everyone in the corridors to give me some paper.

Then there was her.

Swabe: Hey, do you have any paper?
Girl: (surprised) I'll look in my bag.

( Thank God! She had some paper. :D )
Swabe: Thank God you have some paper! Can I borrow one from you?
Girl: I can't let you borrow one but I can give one to you. ( wise ass )
Swabe: Well, thank you very much. Your very kind. Whats your name?
Girl: Its zzzzzz
Swabe: zzzzzz, thank you for the paper. I have to go now to my test. I'll be seeing you around.

( I felt that I did not have time to get the proper close since I had to hurry for my test. )


Approach 2
This girl a 9, has been giving eye contact and smiles some days before my approach. I finally got the courage to approach her and here it goes...

We meet at the lobby in our school.
I smiled at her and she smiled back.

Swabe: Hi! I noticed that you don't wear your school uniform.
Girl: Yes, thats because I am cross-enrolling at xxx university.

( fluff talk about her situation and stuff )

Girl: What's your name?
Swabe: It's Swabe, and yours?
Girl: Its zzzz.

Girl: I think I saw you before. Weren't you an accountancy student before?
Swabe: Yes, but then I've changed to engineering.
Girl: Oh! so that is why you look familiar.

( We walked together outside the school building. At this time, I was turning my head about to look for my friends. I was afraid that they would be teasing me. :rolleyes:
I said goodbye to her but I did not ask for her number.
I know now from reading here that I should have asked for it.
)

I will be posting some more... but right now I have to study for a test.
Guys, I would really appreciate your critiques and comments and any suggestions.
Bye for now.

Good work Mr Swabe!

The next step is to ask for the girls number at the end of any conversation. For example, when you talk to a girl for a few minutes, say "Why don't you write down your number and we'll go do something sometime?" Make this automatic, so that when you are chatting up any girl you always end the conversation with it.

I definitely think you would benefit from approaching more women. Practice by starting up conversations with anyone, guy, girl, ugly, hot, old, deaf... it doesn't matter. This will improve your conversation skills and will make you more comfortable when talking to women.

"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.

I never have thought that sapiens was a filipino.

Latest Approach

Ok. It's 2AM as I am posting now.

Just came from a resto-bar. A friend of mine was celebrating his birthday. We were a group of ten, composed of guys and their GFs.

One of my friends knew the owner's daughter. She approached us together with a friend of hers who was a Filipino-Chinese chick HB8.

I tried to be ****y & funny to her.
I said to her: "Why don't you come here in front of us and introduce yourself, as if you were in an elementary class."

My friends were laughing. Aparrently there was no reaction from her. So I leave it at that.

I've noticed that C+F does not work very well here. Or maybe I'm just doing it all wrong.

What do you think?

Thats a good line. Perhaps I could use that in the future.

Yes. In retrospect, I find that what I did was insulting.
I was trying too hard to please everyone. ( The girl and the gang. ) I fouled it up.

I guess there is a very fine line between C+F and an insult.

Next time, I'll be more conservative with my comments.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

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.
