Don Juan
...do you find they constantly give off mixed signals? This one I am dating doesn't seem to be very consistent.
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
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.

Is that not going against DJ principles? Surely you shouldn't succumb to attention seeking from a woman?~ªêQµïTª$~ said:hmm... I think that what she was looking for was a responce similar to "Well if you need more attention from me, then you'll get it, and I"ll give it to you with pleasure, I was just not 100% sure if I should give you AS much attention because i wanted to know if you were into me as much as I am into you.... And I'm not your ex, You dont have to tell me things more than once"
That way she would melt in your arms, and you will get her, which is what you want, right?
Anyways, keep up the good work
Laterz...
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.
f*ck the DJ principles... They are there to guide us, not rule our lives. And I say tell them what they wanna hear... I mean.... why do what the DJ principles say and end up NEXTING her, when U can do what I say and have them come home with you?disfunktional said:Is that not going against DJ principles?

Wise words, I agree. Standing back and looking at it now, although I was attracted to her, we didn't really have all that much in common, plus she was 7 years older than me, and nearly at the stage of settling down for a family and childern. What I should have done really is finished it myself. Maybe sometimes you get stuck on the attraction without thinking about it enough?Macgyver said:While introvert/shy girls may take 50-100% more effort than an outgoing/extrovert girl, the fundamental principle in finding a good LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP is "What you have in common with each other" - This is the missing step in most DJ techniques/bible which focuses on "Can you get that girl."
My understanding through my dating history is that the more you have in common as well as intellectual compatibility with a particular girl with adequate attractiveness, the more likely you will have a good chance of having a relationship with her. I mean, can you imagine seeing a computer nerd dating a party girl? I'm not saying you should sell yourself short, but you should sell yourself realistically.
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.
