Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Hi everybody

I'm trying to start Don Juan Boot Camp Working Group.

This is my first post, I have read some articles on this forum for about a year ago, I have read books on this subject and viewed hours of video. Have I gotten any result? Well, yes I have. But the problem is that they are very few and in the last couple of month I have lived a very dry life.
I think I have pinpointed my problem, and I think it is twofold.

1. I have not structured my learning; one day I read about c/f, then about confidence, skipping to conversations techniques... You get the picture.

2. I do 95% reading and 5% applying.

What I have decided to do, to overcome those problems, is to take the complete course called "Don Juan Boot Camp" and to do it effectively it would help to write about what I'm doing. But instead of sharing my progress, or lag of it, with everybody and nobody I've decided to start a working group of, say, 4 guys who have the same goal as I do.

Here is what I propose, we start Monday the 2. December and the weeks goes from Monday to Sunday.

Who can join?
Not everybody.
I do not care much for racists or proclaimed criminals, like gang members.
But what is important is that you have full commitment to finishing the boot camp, doing all the exercises, reading and commenting the other members posts and writing posts yourself.
I don't care about age, looks, education, origin or job.

Before you answer please read the first 15 pages of.

I think this is the newest ed. of the boot camp.

If you want to join, please write a little about yourself and why you want to join.

A little about me.
I'm 24 years, I'm studying at a university and I'm from Denmark.

Good luck
The Mayor
 

"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.

I'm considering starting the boot camp but not until I'm out of school for the semester. By then I'll have more time and hopefully my own place.

I already did the first 2 weeks of BC, I am starting on the rejecting lol. I think it would be easier to just go for the number close for me since I am a little more confident. Good luck other guy's that are joining up.
 

"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.

I'd like to be a part of this please.

Discovered this place fairly recently and this is my first post.

I was planning to begin the Boot Camp tomorrow and was going to follow old threads on it but this has come along at the perfect time for me.

I am 19 years old from the UK and I have a job which requires me to be supremely confident. However, I am totally pathetic with girls and after discovering this site (and the definition of an AFC!) I realised exactly what I have been doing wrong.

I would like to become a Don Juan and the Boot Camp seems like a great starting place and, at the very least, looks like it could be fun, especially if I'm going to be taking it with other guys in this thread!

So please count me in! :)
 

"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.

I've looked though the pdf file and all that and think that I'm going to give it a try because it seems like a fun and productive exercise at exorcising the problems of Approach Anxiety.

However, I've failed other bootcamps and have consistently conked out so I'm not entirely sure if I'll be able to reach the finish line on this, but intend to follow through on it's instructions.

I've tried basically low-key exercises so far, such us doing outings or doing functional approaches (functional approaches means asking for date, time, directions, where an item is located, as a premise for approaching (even though I dont really need to ask) whether conciously or subconciously motivated) and have engaged in talk at people at my office and sort of am in the mode of gradual exercises and acclimation.

Anyway, I think it's a good idea and may try it out anyway.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
