"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.

Why and how does withdrawing attention work?

"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.

It sends her self hamstering into overdrive. Was I not good enough for him? Is he seeing someone else? etc.
As Soflobro#2 said if her interest is there, it makes her work harder…

But how does it increase interest?
I kinda get it...like a little kid, hiding things makes them curious. But surely a grown woman with a job and bills, etc ...has to be differently affected.
How and why would not talking to her make her want more?
 

"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.

Not necessarily, even an adult can really like a car on the dealer lot, but puts off the buy decision. The only one he/she really likes/loves that’s there. Then one day it’s gone. Loaned out as a demo. Then said person hounds the dealer for a sale to get it for their very own.
High interest level and perceived loss of availability creates action…but if the interest level wasn’t high enough, there’s always another car.

It's one of the first pieces of advice I was given when I took the initiative to learn this stuff.

Guys (not DJ's of course ;) ) get paranoid when a girl that seemingly liked them at first takes a while to text/ignores them/seems to talk less to them than before.

Now just imagine how a girl that likes a guy would feel if he did that to her (notice how the other posters said she has to be interested in you for this to work). She's going to want him even more because he's in her mind a lot more since she's wondering so much about what's going on and I believe that there is extreme satisfaction for her when she finally gets that attention after a while of not getting it. It's like a drug.

People want what they can't have

The 2 things that make this work are:
1. The one who cares the least wins.
2. We want what we think we can't have.

This "tactic" works awesomely it has garnered the most women for me than any other piece of advice. If I see a hot chick I scan really quickly if she catches me I give her the "you're attractive" vibe casually roll my eyes away and get on to personal business of enjoying myself

If you are in the same area as this particular woman, lets say a bar you can focus on the beer or what is on the TV, look confident, relaxed and satisfied. When you walk past the woman and she notices, she gives off subconscious IOUs, they you inherently feel and see. Give her a quick natural glance and smile, move on sit back down. At this point the energy is building up. You can move around her perhaps a pool table or she will make her way near you. Then you can start gaming
