"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.

She LJBFs me, I cut her off. Good idea?

So i've known this girl for a little over a year now. In that time we've hooked up plenty of times. We used to live a couple hours away from each other, so we didn't see each other much. Now we live in the same town. She got a boyfriend (but he's about to get dumped). We aren't going to date because I'm moving in 2 months, so it'd be pointless.

Everytime we hang out I end up trying to hook up with her because she turns me on, so I told her I can't hang out with her anymore if I'm not getting any.

She tries to LJBF me. She says I can call her when I'm ready to be just friends with her.

Needless to say, I haven't called her.

What are ya'lls thoughts on this one? I figure I'll just freeze her out. If she wants to be friends there's going to be benefits, as far as I'm concerned. Or we can just quit being friends. Because its frustrating not getting any from her when I'm used to it. I figure if the relationship isn't going to be what I want it to be, who's she to guilt me into making it the relationship SHE wants?
 

"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.

Why are you focused on her?

She either comes along with your program, or she doesn't. Obviously, she has chosen not to follow your plans.

You should have several prospects and when your first choice flakes you go to the next one on the list.

Figure out what you want and go get it.

Stop talking to her like you said you were.... Since you been fvcking her before, she might miss not having it and call you back.

Yep you are doing the right thing - just move on and she'll be in touch if she wants more down the road.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Just date other girls and tell her about them if she calls. If you go out with her again make a move on her. Hit on her. Etc..

Otherwise next her.

Hahaha. I love how many *******s there are on this site. I'm amazed at the number of guys who post when they have nothing to say.

So I have no respect for myself, and I'm not a man? Fine. Your penis is HUGE. We're all immensely impressed by how cool you are. It takes a real man to mischaracterize people you know nothing about on the internet.

yeah, but seriously, if a girl LJBFs you, the ONLY smart choice you can do is to cut her off.

end of thread.

there needs to be a sticky that explains this, because even though it IS possible to turn LJBF into something more, it takes way too much work, and you won't feel the achievement at the end, thinking "wow i did all that for this...?"

<--- personal experience

also once you cut off the girl, you'll realize how pointless it was the whole time.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

What does the question "good idea?" mean? Do whatever you feel is respectful to yourself.
