"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.

Hey all,

I recently read an article about awareness radius on mASF, I learned about it through a post that was just made on this site. However I found that it was very difficult to understand the core of awareness radius, I get the idea of shrinking your own, and having most things be known as "ignore" on your AR. What I am wondering, is how do you control your AR, how should I think about things day to day in my AR, what are some good exercises to practice controlling your AR and understanding exactly how it works, and how to influence other AR's so that people are aware of you and and want to be involved in your AR.

"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.

I think AR is a bit dumbass actually. There is internal focus/ external focus, whether you're stuck in your head daydreaming or in the real world (the latter is better) also known as mindfulness: check my recent post of that name.

Other than that, if you're bored your focus is going to wander. I'm for pretty much 100% natural game myself so I'd say don't try and force yourself, if you're not interested in the convo that's something to chew on huh ;) Focus on having fun and enjoying yourself.
