"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, guys, here's some killer data for you.

Had a friend snap a bunch of pics of me last week. I'm wearing a leather motorcycle jacket and sitting on my bike. I deliberately concentrated on feeling like a ****y d!ck in most of the pics but smiled in a few - mostly because he was busting on me for trying so hard to look like a d!ck.

Now the interesting part. I cropped the two best pics so you can just see the fairing of the bike but my head and upper body are the main focus. Both the pics were virtually the same except that I'm smiling in one and not in the other.

Posted each on hotornot. The results:

Not smiling: 9.4
Smiling:6.8

More proof that nice guys don't get laid!

"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.

Good research, though I think it is not that straightforward.
You have to be congruent in the pic. If you are on a bike, helmet\etc - you tend to send "bad boy" sort of image. Do bad boys smile? No.

If you are wearing t-shirt\shorts and there is a beach in thebackground and you are serious as hell... well, you are not congruent.

Although you observation does make sense in general: most male models wear suits and dont wear smiles.

I posted two pics and got a 9.5 and a 9.7, then posted another that was almost the same and it was a 6?

Hotornot is a fickle mistress. My smiling pics did a little better than non-smiling in the past. I like to test run them there before I put them on Myspace or Match. If it gets a 9+, I roll with it.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
