"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Follow your bliss
I haven't found a response when they compliment you yet that I feel okay with.

"Thanks" is usually interrupted by realizing hey they dont usually do that, they seem to have some kind of interest. Maybe the key is not thinking about it?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Compliments from a woman let her know your level of self esteem. So your reaction helps them gauge you.
When you're TOO self effacing, they lose interest.
Simply say "Thank you, thats very kind of you." with a smile.
Thats enough.

Yes indeed.

With that simple response you acknowledge that you know why she complemented you. If she says "You got beautiful eyes" and you say "thank you, you're really saying "Yes I know, thanks for telling me that". It shows you are confident enough about yourself to agree with it. Chicks like that. Don't get ****y though.

I get complimented on a regular basis, especialy by older women because nothing's going to happen between us & is completly safe in that respect???

I just laugh, thats it, or laugh & say thanks, but that's not a technic, it's just my general reaction, it conveys, "yea, thanks for spotting out the obvious", it confuses the f@#k ot of them, but really it amuses me because it's comes out of the blue & is totally unexpected.

Eye her off and say,

What do you want from me???

either that or just a simple thankyou and smile.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

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.

good topic since i was a kid ive always wondered what to say when i get compliments from girls back then i'd be to shy to say anything nowadays i either laugh it out or say "thanks" or anything else i could say to acknowledge what they're sayin is true but not sound ****y which is sometimes quite hard but i just cant help blushing which i think makes me come across as shy

LOL...first time I read this I thought that your response was "Yes indeed."

"You have nice eyes."
"Yes indeed!"

------------------
But seriously I would say, "Thank you! What's your name?"

And then go full steam ahead because you know she likes you.

"thanks" thats all you need. don't be some ****y arsehole. Interceptor nailed it.

The same works for females...if you give a woman a compliment and she starts putting herslef down.... take a closer look at her.

Thank you is the only thing a compliment person would say.

At 2:30 AM this morning I kclosed a girl in the parking lot after walking her to her car. The first thing she said was "You're cute." My response - "Thank you." With a smile of course.

By default, the best reply is always the shortest : "thank you"

why so complicated ?
