"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.

Ok, The past 3 weeks or so I've been reading a lot and made a commitment to improve myself using the DJ stuff. What I've gone through has given me several starting points and a I keep a journal.

Anyway, last night I went out with a female friend of mine (solid 9) who just broke up with her bf. She is a girl I train at my gym (I'm the owner), I've known her about a year and we've become friends. I decided to try to act like I would on a first date, just for practice.

A few of the things I did (nothing major)

1. Attempted to display confidence and a bit of aloofness, ie not act too interested.

2. As per doc love's The System, I kept my hands to myself even when she was touching me. I realize there is conflicting advice on this, but this is the angle I took.

3. Kept compliments to a minimum, in fact she asked me for one, then I just joked about it while giving her a compliment.

4. I kept it light and funny.

Anyway, in just doing these things she started dancing with me and grabbed my hands and put them on her tits... I remained cool, didn't react. She then slid my hands down to other areas and I did the same, no real reaction. After that she we were sitting around and she said she wanted to kiss me, so we made out for a good while. Seems to have worked ok, although I had an in being a friend for a while, though she did reiterate that we were just friends when we were kissing, but it seemed good practice. This morning she started sending me messages about how great of a time she had. Probably a little skewed being that I know her well and she did just become single.

Seemed like pretty good practice! Definitely built some additional confidence.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Nice work mate, keep it up:up:

Just a few things, I'm aware your new and all but her actions appear to be that of a chick who wants to be taken home and bagged, maybe if you get a next time and she's putting your hands all over her bits and pieces you can capitalize on it. However as you say, it's all good practice regardless.

And this bit:

Does doc love actually say this? thats ridiculous. Trust me, kino is most definately your friend, do a search on it and check it out.

I believe Doc Love suggests you let her get comfortable enough to touch you first and then you have the green light to paw her back. He uses it as a test of her interest level. It's been 10 or so years since I read him though. And, I know it's not the only take on kino.

Fair enough, thats a bit different. Personally I just touch from the get go, dont even think I'd have the concentration for the whole "ok that was kino, now I may proceed" thing, besides you can pretty much tell with a bit of eye contact if she's into you anyway . I never read much Doc Love when I started out, David D seemed to have more of an impact.

I think the key to kino is your own style and confidence. I see the only way to go wrong with kino is if it's not 'natural' and or you are awkward about it. Good inner game allows you to relax enough to concentrate on being 'in the moment' -- having fun with the girl and doing what you feel. I think trying to 'connect the dots' -- worrying about performing one technique then trying to figure out which one comes next -- gets you strung out and nervous and it shows.
 

"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.

Thanks man!

As another poster said, Doc Love says to basically wait till she is comfortable and initiates. I've had luck where I intiated kino and I've had luck with it. I'll mix it up and see what works best. I'm usually pretty good at knowing when to do those things. I'm still learning, and reading a lot of stuff, so I'm going to keep trying different techniques and just have fun with it. The main thing I'm trying to get out of this is to keep LTRs. I can usually meet and bed girls, get into relationships and all, but I'm 31 and the longest I've dated anyone has been around 6 months and I get dropped. I get the typical 'you're a great guy, but/LJBF" sort of thing. So I'm trying to do my best to improve all around. Meet more girls, date more, everything until I find a keeper. Self improvement.

I know that I *might* have been able to have this girl, but she's a friend, and I know and train her ex BF at my gym and I like the guy, so that wasn't really a route I wanted to take, I was already surprised enough when we made out and everything.

Thanks for the support, and I'll keep working on everything!
