"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.

Hey guys,

Been a while since I've posted. I've been meeting the most beautiful women, and honestly I can push the interaction, but I want to get them to invest a bit more so I don't feel so much like a chaser. For those that know what screening / value elicitation is, I've decided on some things that I think are important to me in the girl and wondered if you could help with figuring out how to go about getting this info / getting her to hook without making an interview of the process. Here are the values that are important to me (at least as of right now in my life)

1. Compassionate - was thinking of telling a story of how I am compassionate and trying to get her to give me one back
2. Feminine - Don't know if this is a ? so much as seeing if she's complying, ideas?
3. Fun & ok with being goofy - I can be a goofy guy, really not for anyone else but more to amuse myself. Was going to tell a story about goofy crap that my kid and I do to see if she acted stuck up and too cool, or if she laughs and tells one too
4. Giving - not sure how to go about this, but in essence I would only like to hang w/ chicks that aren't really self absorbed and can give back (love, time whatever) - too many takers in my past to deal w/ that anymore
5. Sensual - along with feminine, don't know if this is a thing noticed (which doesn't actually get her investment) or maybe a question etc.

Any advice for those that get the investment & hook in the initial interaction would be awesomeness.

Thanks guys and hope to hear from you! :)
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Hey guys,
Hey man, long time since you updated the journal... hint hint

In the same boat man. It's a b!tch, I know.

For those that know what screening / value elicitation is, I've decided on some things that I think are important to me in the girl and wondered if you could help with figuring out how to go about getting this info / getting her to hook without making an interview of the process. Here are the values that are important to me (at least as of right now in my life)
I've been reading up on these things recently to pinpoint my low interest chicks and just to take my game to the next level. Hopefully my two cents can help you a lil.

Okay if someone goes up and tells you a story about their passion for collecting nazi memorabilia, that (hopefully) won't make you into a fan of it. In the same sense, telling a girl what you like won't make her like those qualities any more either. The only reason this would work is if she liked the qualities already (because you elicited her values and found out she liked X/or you just got lucky) OR she likes you a lot already... If she is falling for you, those rose tinted glasses will make the things you do extremely interesting, but until then it is just random sh!t you do.

1. Compassionate - was thinking of telling a story of how I am compassionate and trying to get her to give me one back
Yea there is storytelling or something similar to it called 'Quoting' to elicit values and show your own. Making her tell a similar story afterwards is unlikely to do anything though. If she is a similar-minded person, you will know and she will probably launch into a story on her own volition.

For quoting, you can either tell a story about yourself or something a 'friend' did if it is a little risque or you are unsure how she will react. She doesn't necessarily have to say "I agree with that" necessarily though for it to work.

The guy I read and learned about EV from would talk to women about the sexual mischief that his 'friend' got into and he would decide how to game the girl according to her reactions.

For example, if he talks about his 'friend' banging a girl in a McDonald's restroom and she starts going all glossy eyed and starts imagining it in her head and meta-stating, she is the kind of girl down for risque sex even if she later says how 'slutty' the girl must have been. If she instantly scrunches her face, then he can deduce something from that as well. However, the point of the quoting is to see what her stance is on certain issues in a roundabout way, or to put her into a trance and get her thinking about fvcking by discussing it, not necessarily to convince her to agree that fvcking in a bathroom is what she wants to do.

2. Feminine - Don't know if this is a ? so much as seeing if she's complying, ideas?
3. Fun & ok with being goofy - I can be a goofy guy, really not for anyone else but more to amuse myself. Was going to tell a story about goofy crap that my kid and I do to see if she acted stuck up and too cool, or if she laughs and tells one too
4. Giving - not sure how to go about this, but in essence I would only like to hang w/ chicks that aren't really self absorbed and can give back (love, time whatever) - too many takers in my past to deal w/ that anymore
5. Sensual - along with feminine, don't know if this is a thing noticed (which doesn't actually get her investment) or maybe a question etc.
Okay, with eliciting values, there is a face value and an internal value. Let's say you meet a girl and she says that you are not her type because you are 5'5 and she only dates big huge men. You do not assume that you elicited her value and she values big men, you have to dig a little deeper than that. What is it about big men that you like so much? How do you feel when you are dating a big man? Etc.

By delving deeper into her face value or generic responses, you find out what she really values internally. Once you fill her internally needs, the external ones are irrelevant. With the aforementioned chick, you talked to her and elicited her values and found out that she was sexually abused in the past and having a strong man in her life makes her feel protected and not vulnerable anymore. Now, instead of hitting the gym up for the next two years, you can work on making her feel secure and protected and then watch the panties drop quicker than the NYE ball at 11:59.

If I was eliciting you for example (no homo), I would not necessarily go off of what you said, but rather ask you more questions to get an underlying feeling of why someone who likes these things are so important for you. However, based on what you have listed, I would say that you want someone possibly like your mother. I am not tryina psychoanalyze and label you with a classic Oedipal complex but Pacing (another NLP-related tactic) would lead me to believe that likely you were closer to your mother than your father as the things you look for are very maternal with hints of unconditional love and acceptance for who you are and what you look for.

But back to you elicting values on others... To me, you are placing too much emphasis on what you what you want and at the same time, not enough. The point is not to display the characteristics you want in a woman, but rather to gauge to see whether the woman you are interested in has them or not. Eliciting values is used to screen. Screening is not really a seduction technique but a means to separate the wheat from the chaff, the ones worth your time from the ones wasting it.

My guess is the problems you are having are due to attempts to start relationships with those who you have not screened because you either did not elicit values on the women, or you got the values and decided to overlook them. From your opening statement of "I've been meeting the most beautiful women, and..." I think it is possible that you are guilty of overlooking personal compatibility because of physical attraction. I am not suggesting that you go fvck some fat b!tches and force yourself to fall in love, so in actuality I can only see two options on the table

1. Elicit the values to find out what the women already in your life want, then convey that you possess the same traits in your life in a subtle manner and hide stuff that shows evidence to the contrary
2. In the seduction world, there is this old acronym about the stages you go through when you try and pick up a woman: FMAC aka Find-Meet-Attact-Close. The saying that was repeated by the veterans was that after you get your game tight, the hardest part of the acronym is actually Finding compatible women. So in essence, your other option in my opinion is to just search harder for women that are compatible with your personality AND possess the physical attractiveness that we all crave in this lifestyle. The quicker you elicit values and screen out the chaff, the better.

Hope I helped, also, I think you might want to brush up on some of the NLP ideas a little more just to get a better grip of them.

What's up Macallik? Alright man, I'll do some FR just for you, I really appreciate all that you put into your reply so for you I'll do it!

Hope everything's been going great man. Thanks for the advice, this is pretty much spot on what I needed to hear to move forward with quick lay game (where I am weak as a freak), and this middle game is actually all around where I'm having trouble getting the lasting connections (and not just the physical attraction from her).

I think there might be another angle that I'm coming from here. I am actually trying to screen for the girls that I want to spend more time with and the qualities that I listed are the actual qualities that I am looking for in her, so I am trying to figure out for those specific qualities what is a good way to judge whether or not she has them AND at the same time by making her prove herself to me and invest in the interaction, get more solid closes happening. I've noticed that these girls WILL qualify if I want them to, but I'm missing on the actual things to make them qualify for. Think I have the qualities I want known, and now trying to come up with something of a script (I know, laime..but I ebb and flow so much on my state that I need something consistent when I do meet someone). So in essence I'm attempting to come from a dominant chooser frame rather then the chaser frame, again though what you posted is where I AM weak so I am going to study it and let it sink in (and check NLP, because even though sooo many people are always talking about being the prize, I feel that he with the most tools has the best chance of fixing any job (hooking up with any girl I want))

Having a girl qualify herself to you is only good for the short term in my opinion. When someone qualifies by adhering to something they don't necessarily believe in for your approval, it is a spur of the moment thing that you shouldn't put too much stock into.

A common one is telling a girl who digs commitment that you don't want an exclusive relationship. She has a decision to make of either a) walking away from you because you are incompatible or b) stick in there and try and change you later on.

The girl will agree and say how outdated the idea of exclusivity is, but she hasn't changed her beliefs... she has only figured out that she needs to hide it from you as best as she can because she likes you. After you have spent time and effort on her, down the road there will come a time down the line where she will show her true colors.

I agree that he with the most tools can fix any job. I like that analogy. As for what you are trying, that is some kinda NLP thing more than likely but way over my pay grade. It sounds like a lot of effort when it will likely be a HECK of a lot easier to find a chick with the qualities you want than to slowly create the woman you want. Good luck

I feel right at home in this thread :)

First I want to point out that I'm not a fan of "Calibrating To Women" because I don't want to attract her with a personality that isn't how I normally am. Instead I'm just blunt putting it out there who I am and what my standards are.

There are millions of women and everyday a new batch is turning 18, I can't have them all so might as well have the best so for me I'm just sifting through all the women to find the best possible women who meet my standards.

I do this actively and passively...

PASSIVE - It's just me being me, when I go up to her it is clear about certain things and if it turns her off meaning she walks away then I know I've successfully screened out a woman who didn't meet my standards

ACTIVELY - I'm more of a facilitator to help her understand how to win me over. Whether it's setting up dynamics/frames or creating opportunities/excuses to help her get in a situation that she wants.

For the sake of the thread I'll show you how it applies to your standards...

Compassionate can be conveyed through just BEING, if your truly that type of person it will be obvious to her that it's a big thing. Same thing with the way that you have fun and give. If it's truly YOU then you'll reek it when interact especially when your have certain standards. As far as sensual goes, if your a sensual being they'll bring it out...

Now you can bring out her feminine/sensual qualities through telling her what you like about her. If they know that is something that you like they'll show more of it, so even pointing out moments of it is helpful...Personally I LOVE feminine energy so I'll just roll up to women telling them how they got this great energy and I might talk about feminine and masculine energy.

Alot of it is about testing to see what she's like for instance I'm PHYSICAL and expect women to be sexual liberated and comfortable physically so EVERY woman I'm physical with from my mother to my ideal type. My hope is to turn off the women who won't like my personality.

As I explain to my friends when I first meet a woman it's like I kick up the meeting room door slam my breifcase on the desk throw out a requirement form stating at the end "If you can't handle that, please leave the room".

Questions are BIG especially if you ask her if she is one way or the other...I tend to ask women if they're the chick standing on the sofa having the time of her life or standing on the sideline quietly...I say things similar to that to find out if she'll be able to handle social pressure because my personality will get people observing us and if she's shy this won't be good.

Bottomline just express yourself 100% putting it on the table subtly that those are your standards and always reward her for getting closer and closer to your ideal...

It's hard to explain through text but as a result every women I mess with were very close to my ideal.
 

“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.
