"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I signed up for a speed dating event. I'll only have 5-7 minutes to hook these girls. What should I try (DHV, ****y/funny, push/pull, IOI, comfort building, etc) in this short time frame and in what amounts?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Confident/funny all the way, you won't have enough time to do any of the others effectively. Make a good lasting impression.

Haha, that's what we need, though: a DJ android. We wire him up and run him from the forum. He *must* do whatever the group decides. This could turn AFC's into DJ's in no time. How awesome would that be?
 

"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.

just bring up some 80s reference and you'll be fine.

so say something like... "i have a question for you. to this day I still don't get the whole 'wheres the beef?' thing. what the heck was that about?"

or "how do they get the caramel in a caramilk bar? Im going to die never figuring that out i think."

or "tell me honestly, don't you think it was a bit odd that a rich white guy adopted two black kids and they lived in a penthouse in new york?"

notice also how those things have slight sexual intonations to them

wheres the beef (ie. in my pants)
get the caramel in the caramilk bar (squirt liquid inside of something)
white guy with 2 black kids (ummm, ok, this one, while funny, doesn't work as well).

Ditto F'd, and just keep them talking about themselves.

I just wanted to thank you for the advice and give an update on this. I went with ****y/funny all the way. Out of the six girls I circled, all six of them circled me as well. That means that at least six girls were impressed by me. It was a fun time.

I will say though, be careful not to drink too much at these things. Some of the girls I picked looked quite different when I actually went out with them. :nervous:

Out of curiosity, where was this event and who facilitated it? I've seen "hurry date" on the internet and thought about trying it out. I live in Baton Rouge, LA and I have yet to find a bar or club that hosts one. How much was the fee? Was there a strict age category that you were allowed to participate in? I am 35 but see myself dating a girl in her mid to late twenties.

Just curious.

Cupid.com runs them too. I think they have Louisiana events.

The one I was in was put on by the Jaycees. It was $25 for 5 minutes with each girl, plus a couple breaks. There were 20 girls. It took quite a while to get through them all. There were two age brackets, 34 - 47 and 24 - 37. If you were 34-37 you could choose which group you wanted to be in.
