you to the television, etc. Are you thinking? Think long and hard and get a definite example in your mind.

Now here is the question I pose to you. What about it made you so interested in it? This isn’t always an easy question to answer, but I’m going to take a stab at it.

In my opinion, it is a misconception that people’s interest in a court case relies on how big, or scandalous, or serious the case is. No matter how large, how scandalous, or how serious a case may be, if it ends quickly, your interest in it fades quickly.

It is not the actual substance or quality of the case that attracts you to it, and makes you want to know more about it, read more about it, watch more news about it. . . It just isn’t, assuming of course that the case does not directly relate to you.

Think about this for a second, if a man murdered fifty people, was caught, was the only suspect, was put on trial and found guilty, how interested would you be in reading about it? Not very.

On the other hand, when an aura of mystery surrounds the case, that’s what draws viewers’ attention. When you hear things like, “A new suspect was found” or “Multiple suspects are being questioned,” or “conflicting evidence” things like that, that’s when people get attracted to a case.

Why? Because if gives the viewers something to really think about, talk about and wonder about. Open and shut cases are of interest to no one.

So why the hell am I talking about court cases?

Because YOU, that’s right YOU, might be an open and shut case that is of interest to no one.

Let me repeat that,

In the eyes of a woman,YOU, without even knowing it, may be an open and shut case, that is of interest to no one.

And what’s worse is that once you’ve been classified as an open and shut case, it’s a very hard label to ditch.

So what do you do about it?

Now be careful because I’m NOT saying that you should stand in a corner, talk to no one, and try to get women to wonder why you’re so “mysterious.” The art is doing it WHILE projecting your confidence and sense of humor. So how do you do this?

It’s simple yet not so simple.

Brevity.

Brevity is the key. They say “Brevity is the soul of wit” well I say that brevity is also the soul of attraction.

Don’t be rude, but don’t give away all your secrets. . . ever.

Let me give you some examples.

How many times do you see a guy approach a woman at a bar, start a conversation with her, have some great communication, then all of the sudden both of them start to kind of look away and get bored after a while?

Or how many times do you see your (male) friends talking on the phone with a girl, and the conversation goes on FOREVER? Then it gets to that point of “Soooo . . . .umm. . . you know everything about me, so what do we do now?”

Brevity is the key.

In the middle of that long conversation, whether it’s at a bar, on the phone, on IM, wherever. . . break it off early (in a nice way of course). Break it off on a high note, while things are going well. Make her wonder what you were more interested in that you had the courage to walk away. Make her want to ask her friends their opinion, just get her mind working.

Now it takes extreme discipline to walk away from an attractive girl who things are going well with, but you’re doing her a favor and she knows it. You’re giving her something to chase after. It is all about the chase remember.

When you genuinely tell a girl, “I’m gonna go check on my friends” or “I need to go grab a drink,” you’re giving her the same reason to feel attraction for you that a viewer interested in a court case feels when he hears that a new mysterious plot twist has happened in a seemingly simple case.

It works. Girls can only talk and think about working out, clothes, and TV shows for so long. Eventually they want to think about and dissect the men that they’ve had interactions with. Give her the joy of the chase, and don’t be an open and shut case.

Hey that rhymed, that was tight. You know what else is tight? THIS
