"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I get alot of compliments from women. Especially about my hair, and my shoes. Usually, when I get compliments I say thanks and then continue with a conversation. I was wondering if there are any better responses to compliments?
 

"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 can always make a joke about it...

Her: I love you hair!
You: Please, you think you're the only girl who's told me that?

Make sure she can tell you're kidding though, or you could really sound like an *******.

If you get an unsolicitied compliment from a woman, it's a good sign. She's trying to show some interest, if somewhat discreetly.

I usually always begin with "thank you..." and then lead in from there.

You could go many places from there. Bust on her for 'hitting on you so obviously' (and watch her blush).

The possibilities are limitless. If she compliments something like your shirt, just lead it into something like 'the fabric feels nice too, here, try' and have her touch it.

If she compliments YOU first, you don't need to exhibit a whole lot of tact in leading the next part of the conversation. She's shown that she's interested, so you need to show your interest in return - but there is very little risk of rejection.

Girls giving compliments is one of the BEST ways to get a conversation going...... you can just turn the whole convo around...

Her: Nice Hair
You: I'm not sleeping with you......

You can do so many things with compliments....

Is that all I am to you... a sexy head of hair and a flashy pair of shoes? I have feelings - you know. Im not some piece of meat, or some damn sex toy!

Say it with a straight face for an amazing laugh and some skyrocketed interest.
 

"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.

Dont say your not sleeping with her. Thats no fun and its not what EITHER of you want to hear. Just let her know shes going to have to WORK if she wants to sleep with you.

Yeah, if you are explicit by saying that, you shot yourself in the foot. If you say something like, "Don't think complimenting me is going to get me to sleep with you" That implies her to try harder and it is already assumed she wants you.
