Señor Fingers
Master Don Juan
IDIOT is a strong word.. immature and ignorant is more fitting.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
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.
I figured idiot would sum up a bunch of things, however I was going to use the word immature.Señor Fingers said:IDIOT is a strong word.. immature and ignorant is more fitting.
reset said:Got it. So if a guy who is confident and in a good mood walks up to a girl, the first thing she says is "Hi. At this time I am unable to ascertain your attractiveness. Plese pull out your iPhone and and show me all the pictures of you and other women first please."
How did guys get laid in the olden days before they could show off their pictures of them in da club getting it on? Now I'm even more confused.
Its true as a woman, I AM observing you.ketostix said:But the point of SP is the women at the club are observing you whether you realize it or not. They notice how other women are responding to you and who you are with, etc.
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.
Got it.ketostix said:I don't know how there could be any confusion. Women are attracted to a guy primarily based on appearance but other things too..one of those other things is value and status. But the point of SP is the women at the club are observing you whether you realize it or not. They notice how other women are responding to you and who you are with, etc. Assuming you're not that clueless, you're just making ridiculous arguments just to argue.
reset said:Duh, I forgot to ask. What if it's not a club? What if it's like a bookstore or groecery store or something and you're both alone? How does social proof work in that case?
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.
Well do you think women converse with let alone fvck every guy that tries to converse with them?Of course conversation has something to do with it, but without having an appearance that attracts the girl and appearing to have value she's not going to really care what you have to say her.reset said:Does conversing have anything to do with it?
Exactly. The guy in the video was a young attractive guy. But he might as well said he can't attract any girls. Despite being decent looking he has no value (to most people) because he has no "proof" of being attractive to girls.reset said:That was fast, I edited it so I don't to derail the thread anymore.
I get you, women are more likely to be attracted to you if you are good looking and if they can see other girls attracted to you.
reset said:Dude.
Anyway, this is turning into one of those looks threads so I just have to stop!
BUT I disagree with you. Can't let my sarcasm get too subtle here. Some dude may be reading this and getting all bummed out.![]()

I agree with that part.ketostix said:... even then you have to have the right attitude and beliefs.
