"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.

This is something I've always been on a fulcrum about. David DeAngelo is my primary pimpin' professor and according to him, smiling too much may convey a sense that you're seeking her approval. In short, smiling a lot is wussy. He advises a skeptical look ("What are you up to, staring at me like that...") and an eyebrow raise. Maybe a "sly smile," as if you know something that she doesn't.

Since I became a member here, most DJ's on the site promote huge amounts of smiling. I understand you may seem more approachable or fun, but at the same time less mysterious and sexy.


James Bond rarely smiles, and I dont think I've ever seen him laugh.


What kind of/how much smiling is necessary for regular EC or just during conversation?
 

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
James Bond may never smile, but he always APPEARS that he is, even though when you really look, he's not.

Like when I try to visualize James Bond macking a woman, even though you're right, he rarely smiles, I see a smile on his face.

He certainly never scowls.

that may be true, but he was invented for the purpose of being (and is) "the pinnacle of masculine adventure."

aka the sexiest man in existence.

Well you don't want to look mean, that's for sure. I understand what Deangelo is trying to get at there but that my cause some to go to the extreme and "mad dog" your target. That's not what you want to do.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

This is true...but I know from experience that controlling your facial expressions in general will do a lot for your general social appeal. It's good to smile and laugh and have a good time, but I find people who are extreme and effusive to be overbearing and a bit irritating.

I think Deangelos point (and it's a good one) is to not try to get approval--but to be the guy whose approval others seek. Smiling a lot and extremely will make people feel good around you (and will make you feel good) but people will also feel that your approval is easy to obtain.

You can be pleasant--and have an appealing "aura" about you--without smiling like chester cheetah.
