"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Its very interesting how this happens. Maybe someone can explain why this happens to me.

I tried an experiment when I was chilling with my girlfriend the other day. I purposely refused to kiss her or hug her, and when she tries to I say "eww" or "yuck" and make a face of disgust. And when I did this, I remained distant, and kind of talked sh1t to her as well. And, another thing, I will purposely do the opposite of what she says. Like If I am getting dressed and I am putting on a sweater, and she says she likes it I go "well in that case, fvck this sweater" and I take it off.

When I do this, she becomes REALLY clingy to me, to the point where she is grabbing my leg begging for hugs and kisses. She becomes like a child.
Its weird. Explain why this happens.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Learn push/pull.
Yeah i know push pull. I am curious of the actually psychological mechanisms behind push/pull. That's what I mean with, why does she act like this? Or more specifically why do girls act like that when you do push pull?

Well, women typically filter their sexuality for alpha DNA.

The whole idea of 'game' is challenge. It is the art of being a challenge to women.

Think back on your experience, briefly... a challenging man is to a woman what a sexy arse is to a man.

Every experience that I've ever had correlates the example of push/pull. A wise man one said that plating a woman is like catching a fish: too much tension (or pull) on the line and it snaps, she gets away - not enough tension (too much push), and she gets away too.

This is obviously true for anyone that approaches regularly. You literally have about 5 minutes to ply game, and push/pull is most evident.

In a nutshell: she acts like this because it is her sexual strategy. She looks for alpha DNA and beta provisioning. Women categorize men very quickly in my experience. However, you can control how others perceive you... this opens up opportunity.
good analysis. thanks

No worries.

Push/pull is the most basic mechanic of game. Yet, no-one seems to understand its relevance.

Even a herbivore understands that he should probably wait a while to text a girl who's number he has recieved. The herb doesn't understand that this is meant as a push.

Once you understand the basic mechanics, you can write the rules however you want ;)
I definitely have an innate pre-disposition and talent for push/pull. I do however think that it would be beneficial for me to know the nuanced psychological reasons why it is so effective, you know? Because a natural ability coupled with an understanding of the reasons why it works would make me an unstoppable player ;) haha cheers.

The person with the lesser interest in a relationship holds the most power.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Just don't overdo it or it will lose its effect.
