"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.

You know guy friends who pretend they are cool with you and agree to chill with you but then ditch you for some other friends without even letting you know. It does not bother me in the way that I feel affected, but more as to why would you simply not inform someone you're not interested or have other plans as opposed to just lying about meeting you there/chill later? What's up with this ***** like behavior? lol!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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 had a friend like that before. There is really not much you can do about it except that when you make plans with them, do it with a grain of salt. In other words, don't expect them to show up, and also you should invite more than just them to hang out.

as a general rule of thumb, most of my guy friends who flake out on planned events are lazy. The past two years, I have not made more of an effort to hang out with them. I guess this is how friends go their separate ways after college.

yeah some of them are lazy, but I know some who will agree to come out some where then when they don't turn up, my friends and I go some where else and see that fool there with other people. My point is just say you don't wanna go for whatever reason instead of pretending that you want to come too.
 

"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.
