When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Not this male!''You can predict male behaviour from female behaviour,'' said Grammer. ''But not the other way round.''
Are you talking about a sorta sparkle in her eyes?Originally posted by The Bad Ass Canadian
what a load of crap.
I'm a master at telling which girls are interested or not.
You can just tell by the way they look at you.
My success rate with pickups is in the high 90% range, for this reason. I never approach a girl that doesn't give me "The Eyes".
It's a very obvious inviting gaze. That's a woman's role, and it's up to us to take the initiative to approach, if we so feel like it.
Just last night, I was at a local bar with some buds just chillin'... We had just gotten out of a long writing/studio session and I wasn't really looking to pickup or anything... plus this place wasn't exactly babe central. The hottest chick in the place was an 8.5 on my scale.... Anyways, I told my friends that a certain girl was interested... They said "how do you know?" I said I can just tell. She's giving me "The Eyes". It's very subtle, but I could tell....
She hjad a rocket body, but her face wasn't so great. She could be super hot, but it looks like she smoked way too many cigarettes and her face was really dull and aged, if you know what i mean. She was only about 23yrs old, so it's a shame.
Anyways, I just shook it off cause i wasn't that interested.
Well, we were walking down the street a little later and this car passes us and then just hits the brakes. The driver starts yelling "Hey buddy, come here... someone wants to see you.." I walk up to the car and it was that girl. She gave me her# right then and there, much to the dismay of the 4 guys she was with...and to the astonishment of my friends... hahaha... They told me after" Man, you got the gift. lol"
How's that for not interested?
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.

"The Eyes" dont always tell you whether a girl is interested or not. The other night this bangin hot chic stared me in the eyes for a good 3 to 4 seconds. I thought well she must be interested until she did the same thing to some of my boys and a bunch of other guys in the bar.
She might have visited this site and tried a little experiment on us dumb guys to see if it would work.

Yup I thought so. I've seen it too, and the more it sparkles the more interest she eventually ends up showing. I think it's pupil dilation, because the more the pupil dilates the more of it you can see (with you seeing less iris), and since the pupil is black more light reflects off it giving the sparkling effect.Originally posted by The Bad Ass Canadian
Yup![]()
It's not to say that every chick that looks at you is into you, but I'm talking about a certain gaze that you just know it's on.
Well I wouldn't read too much into it.... it's just a look.Originally posted by BlahUgh

I think we guys are subconciously supposed to recognize this as a mating sign or something.
