"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

Well it started well. If you read my September thread, I reached the goal of meeting 100 new women. Now this month I may go out with a few of them.

I will keep stats of all the new women I meet this month. It'd be great to meet 100 new ones this month as well, but Im not going to structure my social life around it as I had to at the end of last month to meet the goal. Sometimes going out too much was wearing me down!

I would guess last night that I met at least 15 women. I got 3 email addresses but this was back in my hometown where I don't live anymore.

So some goals I've thought about are the following

1) Work on some new openers/routines, and really work on cold reading. The cold reading stuff works great in night clubs. That and just being very outgoing and friendly. I noticed for sure when I offerred a bit of info about myself I could open a girl up and get her talking. Then i got her talking more and the rapport really grew.

2) Around the world- How many countries/nationalities of women can I meet?

3) Plus i have a multitude of fitness/financial/etc and career goals which I'll be more disciplined about in setting and going for them
 

"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.

welcome to my world
I'm not supposed to post in this forum because I'm not 25, but I tried PM'ing you once to no avail.

Anyway, I just wanted to say this idea of "talking to" a certain number of women per month is great idea.

It is usually what I do, I just don't keep count, but surely I've talked to over 50 or so in the past two weeks. You should double post this in Discussion or something, because most guys are simply daunted by the "cold approach," and this is a much better way to go about things. I personally just talk to and meet women because, 1) I enjoy it very much, and 2) I can't be closing all the time anyway because I often see them more than once.

Still, you've done something great by posting this, keep up the awesome work! Of course, I should say keep up the awesome fun! ...because that's really all it is.

As for ...

Work has taken up my time lately. I've been working super late hours so nothing new to report.

But Saturday I"m going out with a girl that I'm friends with (my friends girlfriend). Should be good social proof and a great opportunity for networking with a cool group.

Oh should be hitting a Lair meeting in the afternoon too on Saturday. That willl be quite interesting.

Since I moved to this new town, I realize I haven't had a wingman at all.

Coworkers are a bad choice for wings. Everything that happens when we go out gets broadcast at work the next day, so it isn't a good thing.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Havent added much but I will say 2 things

1) I'm glad I hit the gym today, it took all I could do to go their before work

2) Going to read this book by Kyle Maynard "No Excuses". The guy was born without arms and legs and is a competitive wrestler. Looks to be a really inspirational story.
