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.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Definately a gold digger mate...retired_dude said:I don't understand his language. My girlfriend just turned 20 last weekend and I am 58. We are perfect together. Maybe it is because I have never been married, but I feel and look better now than when I was 25. Man is made to reproduce until death. Simple as that.

""Under particular circumstances, high socio-economic status in males can be subtly counter-productive in terms of attractiveness as a long-term partner."
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Agrees. Women may deep down want or prefer attractive men but they still might end with less than attractive guys for whatever reasons.bigjohnson said:Also notice they ASKED THE WOMEN WHAT THEY WANTED. Are you all really dumb enough to think the "study" is worth the paper it's printed on with a data collection system like that? What they should do is have a look at the guys these women have recently dated. I'd bet the actual results of THAT would only slightly resemble this "study".
Dear god...billy007 said:come on think about it its both looks and money ... if ur filthy rich then looks doesnt matter...
overall id say a bit of both...
money = 60%
looks= 30%
social status = 10%
That is because a good man is harder to find than an attractive woman. A woman who attracts lots of men is a dime a dozen. A man who attracts lots of women is one in a million.greedydonn said:Agrees.

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.
