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.

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.
Str8up, your claim has NEVER been proven. So how can you say it's "science"??? Like I said, I would love to see an experiment conducted on it, like the one I mentioned in this thread. That would be the ultimate test to whether or not women are "biologically" programmed to seek out men who are "providers". Until then, you and anyone else who may agree with you, have absolutely ZERO, ZILCH evidence to make your claim that it is a "biological" motive.STR8UP said:I'm not brainwashed about anything. This is science.
There are core behaviors that women have that have been around ever since the existence of man. Just because life has gotten "cushier" over the last couple of hundred years doesn't mean that our monkey brains are going to keep in step.
Str8up, you got it all wrong if you think a man's ability to provide for a woman has anything to do with what kind of a man he is. So, according to you, if a man can't "provide", he must be a "such and such" kind of person?STR8UP said:Value has nothing to do with looks, and EVERYTHING to do with what kind of man you are. Once you meet a woman's minimum physical criteria you will be judged on a myriad of other things such as social standing, confidence and several other, most of which are indicators of a man's NON physical suitability as a mate. In other words, she is looking for CUES to a man's ability to bring something to the table OTHER than just looks.
Depends on what he is able to provide. Remember when I earlier asked for guys to post what they could offer women for the long term?edger said:Str8up, you got it all wrong if you think a man's ability to provide for a woman has anything to do with what kind of a man he is...
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Then you have been properly schooled by the feministic world.edger said:If indeed it is the case that wealthy men(both celebrity and non-celebrity)actually WANT to pay for sex, then that is just strange in my opinion. If I had to pay for sex, I'd personally feel humiliated. I'd feel like a loser who can't get chix(not that guys who pay are losers). I'd feel incompetant, that I can't get women the natural way by merits of good game.
this is dead on....Value has nothing to do with looks, and EVERYTHING to do with what kind of man you are. Once you meet a woman's minimum physical criteria you will be judged on a myriad of other things such as social standing, confidence and several other, most of which are indicators of a man's NON physical suitability as a mate. In other words, she is looking for CUES to a man's ability to bring something to the table OTHER than just looks.

Sh1t, half the time I turn my fvck buddies down because they want to stay over and i don't want to deal with them all night or "go get breakfast" in the morning... and I start getting requests like "i'm sick; can you bring me ice cream?" Why the hell would i do that? You're my fvck buddy!! Then they get mad and then tell their friends and their retarded friends get mad EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT EVEN A BOYFRIEND!
If you put your dishes in the dishwasher do you feel like a loser who "can't wash dishes" because you took the easier route? Or did you just not want to deal with your hands getting all wrinkly and having to scrub some fvcking dishes? And why are you definining whether you feel like a loser or not depending on how women perceive you? The definition of men is decided by MEN and yourself.. not some female who defines man by how good he is at serving women.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Are you quoting someone or yourself? I swear i've seen almost that exact sentence before.Rollo Tomassi said:Your charming personality and bullet proof PUA skills wont make you look any better with your shirt off.
According to hot or not I am a 7.2-7.8 depending on the picture and whatever else influences such things. I think I'm in that "good enough looking" for almost any woman zone but not in the "I'm George Clooney and womens legs sometimes explode from opening too fast when they see me" zone.mrRuckus said:Do you guys even know how hot you are?
I never got the chance to throw this in the other day, but I wanna ask you this:STR8UP said:Men don't have babies. Babies make a person dependent upon fellow human beings to ensure a child's survival. A woman is generally weakened by pregnancy and child rearing. Thus, a woman who seeks to have a family (99% of them) will always, always, ALWAYS have the desire and the need for a partner who brings something to the table.
Yes I do...I know this from my own personal observation of myself, plus I've been told more than many times by women how hot I am. And don't take it as if I'm bragging, I'm not..besides, you asked. I even get told by guys(friends and strangers alike) how good looking I am.mrRuckus said:Do you guys even know how hot you are?
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
having looks won't (always) get you laid.edger said:Y
But once again, like I've testified, the majority of the time my looks get me nowhere
As soon as I read aliasguy's post I need not read a further post in this thread. This is exactly the right attitude. The attitude of being able to do what YOU want with your life. Sure these guys may look like AFC's but they were actually doing what they wanted. They chose to act that way because they wanted to.aliasguy said:-
--
Those guys did all that sh*t because they WANTED to. Not because they had no other options.
They like it, they do it. Sure, they could be doing other things. But, at the time, THAT's what they wanted to do. And they DID it.
Because those are the kinda guys who CAN do whatever they want. Strive for being that kinda guy.
And then, do what YOU want. (I'm not into chubby chicks - maybe Bill is.... to each his own.)

Do guys who don't want kids still want sex? They're wired the way they're wired and there's little to nothing they can do about it.edger said:What about the woman who has absolutely no desire to have kids in life....

Brilliant! I was thinking the same thing the other day. I would also add in age range too. It takes a lot of wealth, not to mention a lot of personality or game for an older average looking guy to compete for the young hot chicks.potato said:If you consider that the range of a woman's suitors is likely to be within a narrow socio/economic range then one man's wealth is no greater than another's. In such a case looks always matter more.
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.
