"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.

So, what Game, if any, has stuck with you five, or ten years later - what do you actually continue to use? I get that it's kind of an arbitrary distinction; where does the "Game" end and the individual begin, but I think you know what I mean.

Game-wise, I think that all I really do these days is make smart decisions, and put my own interests first. I actually act on warning signs when I see them, and I trust my gut instinct. There's a deliberateness in my choices that wasn't there when I started - and that's the part of my behaviour that I tend to think of as "Game".

That, and allowing women to think they have some direct competition for my attention.

Over to you guys. Feel free to talk about the Game you've discarded along the way also.
 

"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.

From what I understood from the legendary RT is

there is no distinction between the Game and the individual.

You become that man who demands his own proper role in his encounters with women while he demands the same from his woman.

This, contrary to popular feminist propaganda, is not a double standard because while you demand your natural rights to behave like a "man", you expect your partner to assume their corresponding role, in a perfectly fair division of labor. From this standpoint - I could try and argue why it is not OK for a woman to be promiscuous while similar behavior can be condoned for a man, under certain circumstances.

But that's another story.
In short, I don't like to think that I disassociate myself from my true self when I interact with women. That switch , if it exists at all, is always ON.

Lol @ Boilermaker. It's definitely the more interesting part of that question, so I can't blame you for going there. I had intended the thread to be more about the specific behaviours themselves, rather than their relationship with some core identity - important though that is.

For instance:

Give us an example of something you still "do" with every "date".

Or, tell us what bit of DJ dogma just never worked for you in the real world.
