"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.

This is definitely a first for me. I'm not exactly the most serious guy around. I play with women, have my fun with fbs and all that. Recently, I've found myself in a relationship with a woman I like. The problem is, the whole relationship thing is totally new to me. I'm pretty much used to casual sex and a "do I know you?" the morning after. The thing here, is I actually care about keeping this one. She told me that her longest relationship lasted only a week. I deduced (and she confirmed) that it came from guys being too nice/AFC, reeking of desperation, buying her gifts, caling her, and thus being a turn off. Which is why she broke up with them. I mean, this is pretty basic stuff that every Don Juan/rAFC knows. What I do know, is that she is madly in love with me, and shows it everywhere possible. Her AIM nickname is even Abby <3 [LinkinParkROX].

Since we got into the relationship, for some reason I keep trying to keep her, reminding myself of her longest relationship being a week long. This is totally fucking up my game. It's going to lead to her being the prize if I keep in contact. I haven't been in good contact because of this very reason. Up until now I've easily maintained my position as the prize, and she's been pitifully trying to impress me & show off her "life". It's nice that she's trying, but that's coming out of her knowing my extreme high value and trying to catch up. I can tell. We had a date on thursday with very very intense stuff happening, and since then, I haven't called at all. I did happen to see her on AIM a day and a half later and say hi, hold up a short conversation, disappearing after she got excited, leaving her wanting more but not exactly giving it to her.

Also, I pass by these girlie gift shops at malls, and she's the first thing on my mind. I then tell myself "No. I'm the Don Juan, the prize. She's gonna be the one buying the gifts. " and walk away. Basically, I need to reassure myself. I plan on keeping this one, and have no idea how to do so. I guess being my regular unchanged Don Juan self should do the trick. But this is messed up, I actually wondered how long to wait before I call her, taking into consideration the 3-day rule and all that hoohaa. I've never had to do this before. I also am afraid to stay out of contact for too long or she might lose interest, which is why I was on AIM today. Also our intense moments from thursday keep playing back in my head & I want to go out again and do it again, but am not asking her out because it'd be too soon and it's good to be a rare commodity and all that. This is fucked up. My first real relationship. How do I keep it without being this way? Damn. I haven't felt this fucked up in a long time.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

The most important thing in a relationship is being willing to let her go.

This is where men screw up. They they thin "I can't lose this girl", and start acting needy. You don't act differently in a relationship, you keep doing what works.

Stop trying to "keep" her. It'll only push her away.
