Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near 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.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Agreed.Jariel said:That was so creepy and obnoxious. She was very average looking so I'm sure she was flattered by the attention. Plus I see no proof that they went on a date.
I imagine most women would get irritated by him very quickly if this is how he behaves, especially if he keeps imposing himself the way he did on that phone call. He's like a snakeoil salesman and a lot of girls will give up their number just to get him off their case, but I expect majority of them will flake as soon as they have time to think.

First off, she looks like she can't wait to get away from him.Scars said:She started giving him warmer vibes towards the end, but I'm sure once she walked away and had time to process what just happened she probably spent the rest of that phone call telling her mother how much a creep he was. I admire his fearlessness to approach, but that's about it. I don't think he's a PUA god by any means, he's simply gotten over approach anxiety. This guy needs to get into sales.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
One can not make all girls like him, but one can approach all the girls he likes.zekko said:First off, she looks like she can't wait to get away from him.
Secondly, notice there's that moment when she looks directly into the camera. She knows she's being filmed. I'm not sure what that means.
Third, the title of that YouTube page is so fanboy juvenile:
PAULIE JANKA TEARING THAT **** UP!!!! NUMBER CLOSE!!! KING OF PUA!!
Umm, okay.
Instead of criticizing him you should look at yourself and see if you can act the way you really want to act without the fear of getting the girls irritated.Jariel said:That was so creepy and obnoxious.

Hmm, he's asking directions.evansblue said:
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.
But what's the point in doing that if he doesn't get laid or even a date? If I just want to fill my phone with numbers I could use a phone directory.evansblue said:Whether he slept with these two women is irrelevant. He can go up to any girl, remain calm and run smooth game. So while he might not nab every one (nobody does), he still reels in plenty through his approaches.
That's exactly what I have been doing for some time now, but my obnoxious behaviour and trying too hard is exactly what's been driving girls away and is something I've been trying to change.n00bPimp said:Instead of criticizing him you should look at yourself and see if you can act the way you really want to act without the fear of getting the girls irritated.
I couldn't help but notice the way he holds his arms. I used to hold my arms just like that when I was having an oral exam back in high school.evansblue said:
Haha!zekko said:Hmm, he's asking directions.
Maybe Paul Janka is really ALPHAROMEO.
I can't help but like you ALPHAROMEO, even though I think most of your advice is nonsense.ALPHAROMEO said:as regards asking for directions JANKA acknowledged he got the idea from me !! sort of flattering
Maybe you should get a hold of him and tell him he's infringing on your copyright.ALPHAROMEO said:JANKA acknowledged he got the idea from me !! sort of flattering
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.
