"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

I'm trying not to start another looks thread here.

There's a lot of talk about getting called "cute" or getting called "hot", and I think a lot of us hear both from women. But what does it mean to get called "adorable"? I'm mainly asking the girls on this site this question, and not the guys because I don't think guys know how to distinguish the different ways women categorize guys as attractive, because to men a woman is either good looking or she's not. There are no different categories. But if you're a guy and you want to weigh in feel free I guess.

I'm only asking this because I get called "adorable" a lot. Sometimes I hear it after I talk to a girl and get to know her, and other times I hear it from a girl I've never even met or just seen for the first time. A lot of times I'll hear cute or hot or something like that first, but other times I won't.

I realize the sound of the word "adorable" is going to invite some flamers. In fact, I don't even like to write that word or admit that I get called it. But please don't respond with something about how I'm putting too much stock in my looks or that girls are seeing me as their little brother or some cliche' flame like that. You don't know me, and you don't know the girls I've slept with. Plenty of times I've slept with a girl who has called me this word in bed, and I highly doubt she was trying to have fantasies about her little brother.

My cousin (a girl) told me that it's a really high compliment, but I'm just interested in some other female perspective.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

Well I think it's no different than how most guys simply say a girl is 7,8,9 or 10. Women basically do the same thing. They just use different semantics. I hthink it means you are attractive with boyish good looks as opposed to attractive with more "masculine" looks. I'm just taking a guess as I don't know what you look like.

Mike,

If you are trying to "dig out" if you are ATTRACTIVE or not, STOP.

A man's TRUE attraction level is different than a woman's TRUE attraction level.

For a woman to be ATTRACTIVE, it's based on a visual display. This is NOT the same for a guy, so you don't need to post your pic like Keto demands so his faggo azz can look at your body and see if you have "abs" and judge your looks.

Instead, a man's ATTRACTION is based on RESULTS. If you fvcked her, YOU are attractive. If you mind-fvcked her and she can't get enough of you, YOU are attractive. And this will spread........once you then fvcked a number of chicks you BECOME ATTRACTIVE based on the RESULT of those actions.

Do you see what I'm saying? You have to "catch" what I'm saying....if you don't get it let me know.

I think Keto hit it on the head, amazingly enough. Cute and adorable usually describes more boyish looks.

And I know men who have a difference in what pretty, cute, hot, and beautiful looks like.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

Go ahead and never respond to another one of my threads. Thanks.

Cute and adorable = highly attractive, in his case.

I think you're right too, and that was a pretty good response to my question. To me, it seems guys just kind of have a different way of evaluating attractiveness. That was why I was mainly asking girls I guess.

^^^ Lol, Mikey, don't be mad at John, who is probably drunk.

John is a great addition to the boards!
It is Sunday night/Monday morning. I'm really impressed with that guy if he is hammered right now. Not saying I've never pulled it off, but what is he drinking church wine or something?
 

"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.

John true question, are you really this sensitive and abrasive in everyday life? If so, I can't imagine you having too many friends or women. And you wonder why few people want to listen to your "advice".

Hahah, I take it he didn't like me advice? :wave:
 

"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.

:crackup:

This really is spot on IMO. I agree 100% John. It's actions from women that matter.

Any compliment should be viewed as a 'green light', and if you find her attractive, go for it.

Trying to interpret every little comment by some woman is not masculine behavior. As men we are the ones that should be taking action.

So to repeat John's great quote...

"Instead, a man's ATTRACTION is based on RESULTS. If you fvcked her, YOU are attractive."

NO more "looks" threads.

All you do is flame-bait John, consider yourself on notice.

Thread Closed.
