"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

i don't know if its only because i've only done 22 approaches in my life (6 hits, 16 misses) and still havent gotten laid, but it seems to me that just the act of going up to girls you don't know and trying to charm them and get their #'s is in itself telecommunicating desperation and neediness. Thoughts?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

The city that sleeps. Sometimes.
yes it is in a way a catch-22 but only at first.

at some point, sarging is no big deal and natural, and all of a sudden you are not desperate anymore and sh!t starts coming together.

Well the way I look at it is that you're the guy and that society says you do the approaching so approach!

I hear what you are saying but I've learned that there are ways to approach and not look desperate. Ultimately you have to realize you can walk away at any time. If she's acting bichy or disinterested you have the power to leave. There's nothing desperate about that. Always remember you are in control and you don't have to close every girl.

You're right. We should all just sit around on a computer all day waiting for girls to charm us and get our numbers. That's not pathetic, not one bit.

Guys have been approaching girls since the beginning of time. First there was the caveman, who approached from the rear, hitting the woman over the head and dragging her to his cave. Now it's 2006 and we do things a bit different - but the end result is the same... getting booty. Once you get some for yourself you'll understand... ;)
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

That's why you don't _TRY_ to _CHARM_ them.

You are going up to a girl because you're The King and The King likes to know everyone. You are GRACING her with YOUR PRESENCE. You don't need to TRY anything. You can have her if you want, but that's not really on your mind at the moment.

You've got it all wrong and your way IS DESPERATE and NEEDY. You're RIGHT.

And diablo is a jerk, moderator or not. This is a legit question Diablo. You've been a jerk on some of my threads too. You're supposed to be building a community here.

yes, just accept that it's not easy, that really anything worthwhile is not easy...

it's like when you are learning to play a musical instrument like the guitar...

at first you suck at it, you try to play the right notes but you can't...

you persist and eventually you can play the right notes but your timing is not so good...

you persist and you can play all the right notes at the right time but your musical is unoriginal and mechanical...

you persist and eventually you have your own style and you can inject your own personality and mood into the music.

how long does it take? years and years of practicing every day because there is always something new to learn

even if you know everything you still have to apply it and actually get good at it, be > do > have

OP has a point. Even though society dictates the male has to pursue, that still puts you at a disadvantage at least initially. And on top of that, sometimes some people, males and females, will try to make you feel like your doing something wrong by Cold approaching (CA) strangers. CA isn't always easy or the most productive, that's why some people recommend sarging social circles and networking, but I think being able to succesfully CA is a necessity anyhow.

The main point of the CAs is for you to get over your anxiety of approaching/talking/flirting/closing/whatever HBs. It's meant for experience sake so you can destroy your fears of rejection, see what works for you and what doesn't with HBs, determine how HBs percieve you as a stranger, and eliminate the limitations most AFCs place on themselves (i.e., the only way I can meet an HB is through friend of a friend or out of pure luck if she works/studies with me). If you think it makes you seem desperate and needy then that's exactly the impression you're gonna make every time until you learn how to change that negative mindset you place yourself in.

I mean sarging isn't the only way to meet HBs but consider this: it's definitely the fastest method in all areas. Nothing else is going to build your experience with HBs as quickly, nothing else is going to give you access to so many opportunities in such short time, nothing else is going to purge your social phobias/anxiety/fears of rejection as effectively, and nothing else is going to increase your chances of getting digits/date/puss/ONS/LTR like sarging will.

I think that whole caveman thing might work in a crowded club. I'll field test it and let you know how it worked out. :D
 

"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.

It would only come across as desperate or needy if you are desperate and needy. If you are confident it will come across that you are brave and a leader because you go after what you want.

How many times do I have to say this, Why are you putting so much pressure to approach when you can make it easier and at the same time not look desperate and be more alpha..

Use the psssst.. and come here finger, meaning for her to come to you. It shows dominance and control of the situation, it also portrays you as the chooser and the one with higher value, and if not impressed could leave at any moment, or ask her to leave or go back to what she was doing.

If she's giving you good eye contact, this is a perfect situation.

I do not reccomend doing this to guys. Some guy did this to me while i was in my car, and I got soooo offended I was thinking about it for weeks. I was goin to hit that guy the next time i see him.
