Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
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.
LOL Thought about it, been whoring around for a while now. Want to settle down for a bit.Voice said:Why ruin a wonderful thing?
Thats what i thought. She was in FL and was texting me all the time. We hung out tonight. I want to hang out a bit more to build more attraction so we can get more used to eachothercreate a lil distance..dont always be available for "screwing around". if she starts missing you she might develop feelings for you then you are in. dont ever be the first one to ask for a serious relationship let her ask you. if she isnt asking you means she doesnt have feelings

Settling down comes naturally. You can't just force it.Crissco said:LOL Thought about it, been whoring around for a while now. Want to settle down for a bit.

What Ease said.Ease said:Labels is something that girls need.
You need 3 things.
1. Her treating you like her man: looking out for you, caring for you, wanting to see you, giving you the affection and love, being the special girl in your life.
2. You treating her like your girl: looking out for her, taking care of it when she has a problem, being the man in her life.
3. Her not screwing around with other guys.
If these 3 conditions are being met, then it doesnt matter what you label it. If you have something special with this girl then it depends on these 3 conditions. It isnt that special something if she is a cold ***** with 50-50 interest in you, or if she has a habit of going to the club and kissing guys.
It is 3 conditions and not 4, we dont mention you being faithful to her because we are men. What you do behind closed doors is your business only, until she demands it otherwise, at which point it becomes her business also.
I already have 3 FWB and 2 more potentials bro.TheAsianLoverReturns said:What's wrong with you? That's the woman's job.
You should be thinking how do I add 2 more FWB.
She sometimes treats me the way I want to be treated, sometimes no. Its not her, its my own insecurity's on this part. Shes a big push/pullWhat Ease said.
If she's treating you the way you want to be treated, then a label won't matter.
And if she were the type to cheat/lie/steal, then the label won't matter either.
It all comes down to how you treat each other. Not what you call it.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I doubt that, if that was the case, you wouldn't be dreaming about how to turn your f*ck buddy into a girlfriend.Crissco said:I already have 3 FWB and 2 more potentials bro.

er though, likes to play games, but I can see through it all and play it right back.
Im thinking of switching things up, going out more often, having fun overall instead of staying inside and fooling around every time.
Im the last person who would lie bro, I really do have 3 FWB..TheAsianLoverReturns said:I doubt that, if that was the case, you wouldn't be dreaming about how to turn your f*ck buddy into a girlfriend.
You're the woman in the relationship.
You have always been honest and big help, wanted to say thanks.Jariel said:I ruined things with my last FWB by trying to turn it into more. I admit, I really liked her and we'd had some great times together both in and out of the bedroom, so I naturally thought we would be good in a relationship.
What I learnt, and what I've known all along in fact is that the woman has to make that decision. You just keep enjoying the sex and keep your emotions and attachment in check.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
That might just work bro.tafakna said:Nobody has a Monday schedule... She will see through that...
Instead make plans for Monday and break it a few hours before it... It's hard to do but trust me it works like a charm to make her less secure and more interested...
