"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

i need some insight on eye contact...

what constitutes interest on her part? because everyone looks around the bar and accidentally catches the gaze of another sometimes. how do u discern an accidental eye lock from an eye lock of interest?

for example: last night i was at a bar and there were 2 specifics who i kept making eye contact w/ - more than several times. should we call once an accident, 2 times a possibility and 3 and above the go-ahead to introduce ureself?

i realize its not a good idea to start putting this to a formula, but its a good indicator i think...a good gauge of how an introduction would go.

what of it?
 

"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.

Have you ever been in a "Glance War?" Happens to me all of the time. Basically, you keep meeting a person's glance over and over and over, sometimes more than a dozen times. It's pretty awkward and it's tough to escape. This usually happens when you're confined to one area...in a class, for example. I've had glance wars with HBs and non HBs alike. I don't think they mean anything. They could be glancing just because you are...it's hard not to.

first things first...RELAX...secondly if you havent approached a girl by the second glance she WILL start to think your a wuss or worse yet a stalker. Remember this...if she makes eye contact and you force her to break it and she looks again GO FOR IT. Sometimes you wont be so lucky to get a second glance.

Usualy after the first or second time meating their eyes is when I go for it. Oh yea, always remember...never be the first to break eye contact.

Have you taken the time to preform a search? Theirs a little button up their somewhere that says search, click it, type eye contact, and holy crap....information galore.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

You wouldn't hit a pop fly and just stand there in the batter's box, would you?

Getting eye contact and not introducing yourself is the same thing.

Run it out.

"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.
