"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.

"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.

Interesting that almost everyone here so far is an NT type. What does this tell us?


http://www.gnxp.com/MT2/archives/003474.html

NT - Ideas: These people like thinking about ideas. They like solving problems (not the administrative kind), inventing algorithms, and architecting solutions. Most scientists and engineers are NTs (though a lot of engineers are SJs). Lots of good programmers are NTs (I'm one of those), but they're likely to view programming as a means to an end rather than an end in itself (in contrast to SPs).

We are a pretty small part of the population as a whole, only 5-7%:

SJ: 40% - 45%
SP: 35% - 40%
NF: 8% -10%
NT: 5% - 7%

I'd also be willing to bet the farm that NT males have the hardest time with women of all four major types.
 

"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.

Strong INTJ (meaning, score extreme on all 4 indicators). Supposedly, only 1% of the population is INTJ, but everytime I see this come up somewhere on the net, more pipe in as INTJ's than any other profile.

"Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel."
Exactly. So like any INTJ worth his weight would do, I researched the net on how to use my powerful mind as a weapon to seduce women, instead of something that just got in the way. Of course that inevitably led me here.

Ive noticed the same thing. It could be that INTJ's are more drawn to posting on web forums while the other types are out socializing and getting laid. :rolleyes:

No doubt. NTs are pretty rare in the population at large, yet they fill up web forums. Think about it who web forums appeal to and it's no surprise. You do it alone, it requires thinking and introspection. It's total INT territory. Face it though, we'd rather be tagging some ass than posting here.

I think another explanation for the higher percentage of INTJ in forums is because we are more opening-minded and more willing to search for new ideas.
