"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.

Heard from a buddy of mine that there's a rejection hotline out there. Apparently someone in the NYC area (we live in North Jersey) bought a phone line and hooked up this huge voicemail system to it and gave out it's number as a rejection hotline.

His sister has given it to guys. Apparently the girl gives you a number, it definitely looks real (cause it is), you call it and you get an answering machine that says, "If you've reached this answering system from a phone number you were given, consider yourself officially REJECTED!"

Then apparently there are options like 'press one for a poem' or 'press two for a joke' and stuff like that.

Anyone get the rejection hotline? I'm proud to say I haven't. But then again, I haven't asked for a girls number in MONTHS. So I guess it's not really something to be THAT proud of.

"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.

Who cares if you get the rejection hotline. Keep plugging away.

(212) 479-7990. A friend told me to call it - I don't think it's that common for people living outside of NYC to get; even if you do, so what? It just shows she wasn't interested to begin with... so you know exactly what her IL is... :rolleyes:

Anything Else.

Giving out a rejection hotline number is mighty immature.

They do a thing on the radio here in the UK its called the flirt divert number. If someone you don't fancy asks for your number you give them the fake one. The fake one has a generic answering machine.
They record the messages left on the number and play them on the radio. I have got to make a note of it before starting the boot camp!

"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.

Funny stuff.....from my perspective that it

I got the New York one. But the funny part was I didn't even ask the girl for a number.

I was being ****y and funny with her and then she gave me the number without me even asking.

Then later she tried to get me to buy drinks and ****, which I didn't do at all.

But I called the number 3 days later and got the brush off.

I thought it was kind of funny, but always wanted to go back in to bust on her.

I didn't get the rejection hotline, just wondered who might have and (and it was already answered) if they had similar things in other parts of the world. I think it's funny as hell!

I heard the one in Nashville a few months ago. No one gave it to me as a real number, but a friend I was with explained it to me and I called it.

Its stuff like this that drives me NUTS! Girls are so afraid of confrontation that they have made passive-aggression a game.

Anyone who actually uses something like this is a horrible human being. If you don't want to talk to someone then don't give them ANY number.

Thats funny because this guy I know...his wife was telling a bunch of us about this guy hitting on her and she gave him the number. I got it from her and saved it to my phone...havn't giving it out yet. I'm waiting for the hottest chick I find.

Oh and I live in Tennessee so I guess the number is pretty popular.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

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.
