"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Recently I found an old email file from a few years ago (during my AFC days) and I started to read the messages girls sent me back then. The common thing they all told me was that I was sweet or that I was a sweet heart.

I then became clear to me that if a girl says to you that you are sweet then you are being used as emotional tampon.

I realized that when a girl really likes a man or feels attracted to him she doesn't call him sweet. When she likes you she will say, "oh you turn me on with your voice" and other things related to attraction. being a sweet guy has nothing to do with her attraction for you.
 

"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.

yes, it's another way of saying you're a nice guy

What about "cute?" My gut reaction is that it's a sign you're in the FriendZone...what do you think?

You guys analyze too much. I've told men I was deeply in love with that they were sweet when they did something sweet MANY times. If a girl tells you that you are sweet it means that you did or said something that she viewed as being so nice that it warranted her acknowledgement. It has nothing to do with attraction. If guys didn't do nice things with the expectations it would get them sex they wouldn't feel compelled to over analyze words like "sweet", "kind" and "nice".
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

00Kevin exactly. "sweet" has nothing to do with attraction. Women call little kids sweet. When a woman is attracted to you alot, she will call you hot, sexy, and sometimes cute. Cute is not always bad. She could just not want to put herself out there like that and say hot or sexy. Sweet means you are being a wussy, pushover, AFC guy and kissing her ass. I don't like to use the word nice guy in a bad way, because I do consider myself a nice person, as in a non-jerk, and I don't think being nice is a bad thing.

Yes Kevin, you are correct in your assessment!!!! Candy is sweet - men are not sweet - we are men!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The "sweet" terminology is a term used to describe a man who is less than his inherent characteristic - sweet is not a term used for men!!!!! I have yet to know a man who is sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think I'm partly with wyldfire on this one. Sweet and manly aren't mutually exclusive. If you're being called "sweet" on a regular basis, tho, then it may be a problem.

Every once and a while is ok, tho.

You boys spend too much time chasing after 30 year old sluts. What kind of broad calls some guy "hot" to his face? Uh, well maybe the chubs you chase after. However, most girls on this planet are going to be VERY shy if they like you. Calling you sweet is about as far as most will get when it comes to letting you know that they REALLY like you. ****y girls are the domain of Ugly America/UK. Avoid the ****y sluts. Let them know how genetically ugly they are in comparison to what one can find in some parts of this world.

Sparky's advice is to go find a nice innocent youngish girl that blushes very easily (and has blue eyes...and a size 24' waist). In other words, you are screwed in America/Uk :crackup:
 

"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.
