What to say when the chic says she's got a boyfriend?

"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.

Agreed, although I wouldn't write her off immediately. She might utter that phrase because she is unsure of you.

My two comeback sre:

"Cool. Now you can have two!" With perhaps a "this is your lucky day" added on, depending on the woman.

The other is:

"Really? Is he going to marry you?" I like acw's answer, along the same lines. If she is just sh!t testing you'll know whether to pursue of cut bait at this point.

Thats the theory I have she just might be testing and if you have a good comeback you can pass.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.
