What does it take to get a bloody relationship these days?

A lot of people finding themselves in these protracted casual situationships,

dynamics that mimic relationships, that give people the boyfriend-girlfriend experience,

but try and pin someone down and ask them,

are we actually in a relationship?

Are we actually exclusive?

Is this going somewhere?

And suddenly they start to freak out.

Is this something you can relate to?

Well, if so, I think this video is going to be one you enjoy very, very much.

I'm going to give you 13 ways to be taken seriously by somebody for a relationship.

And they are really practical and really easy to do.

Before we do that, I want to make sure that you go over to howtogettheguy.com.

We have a new tool over there.

It allows you to tell us what your love life challenge is right now

and then the tool recommends you my best solution for what you're going through.

All you have to do is go over to howtogettheguide.com,

put in your name and hit start here for your personalized solution.

Now onto the video.

Number one, be more than a last minute plan.

It's so easy when we like someone and they text us at the last minute saying,

do you want to do something tonight?

It's so easy to just say yes.

Now, I'm not saying you should never respond to a spontaneous offer to see someone,

but if you find yourself routinely responding to last minute offers,

then you are devaluing yourself.

Instead, send someone a message back that says,

I'd have loved to, but I have plans tonight.

Maybe give me more than 24 hours notice next time,

question mark, little blushy smiling face.

Number two, don't just go with their flow on a date.

There's a temptation isn't there to sort of please someone by going with their rhythm,

their pace, what they want.

If someone else wants to have many drinks,

we feel like we should have many drinks with them.

Someone else wants to stay out late.

We have work in the morning.

We're going to be tired.

We don't really want to stay out late, but we do.

Someone wants to have sex or go home with us.

We oblige because we feel like we should and we're attracted to them,

but it's a bit fast for us,

but I am attracted to them and maybe it won't hurt.

So we do it, even though it's not something that we actually really consciously want to do.

Don't just do it because the other person wants to.

When you set the tone when you go with your own flow you get instant respect and you get taken seriously.

Number three, suggest a date plan.

Now this doesn't have to be for date number one,

you can see if they're good at coming up with a plan for date number one,

but for date number two or three

or four don't be afraid to be the one who actually takes initiative and suggest something.

Why don't we do this?

I found tickets to this thing.

Do you want to go?

It shows that, well, A,

you're confident enough to suggest something.

B, you're diverse in the kind of things you like to do.

Hey, I saw this event, this mezcal tasting experience.

Do you want to go do it?

I thought it could be fun.

But C, it also creates a sense of adventure that this person experiences with you.

It's not just on a set dating track that mimics every other date he's been on.

There is a unique experience and moments that you're going to have together.

Number four, send a post date text.

This is where you're the one who actually sends a text saying,

I had a really lovely time tonight.

Now, I actually don't get hung up on whether you're the one who sends the text first

or you send this as a reply.

My point is don't be indifferent.

Don't be too cool.

Sending a text that says I had a really great time tonight is an act of vulnerability

and it shows that the date actually meant something to you.

And this is especially important after intimacy.

If you go home with someone and have sex,

the next day don't play it cool and just be like,

well, I'm just not going to text them.

I'm going to wait for them to come to me.

I'm not saying you have to rush to text them,

but at some point that day,

send them a message and say,

I had a really amazing time with you.

When you send that, what you're showing is that that actually had some meaning to you.

And so the implication is you shouldn't treat me casually or lightly because that wasn't just nothing to me.

Playing it cool backfires if it teaches someone,

if the message received by them is that the moments,

the intimacy, the experience of being together had no meaning to you.

By the way, this is a technique called post-framing.

What you're doing is attaching value to an event after it's happened

so that that person knows that that event actually had some meaning to you.

And it makes it more likely,

therefore, that it will have meaning for them too.

Number five, show genuine appreciation for something they did.

If there was effort made by somebody,

And by the way, you can do this in the same text I mentioned before,

or you can do it in a different text.

Actually acknowledge the effort that was made.

Hey, by the way, that was really sweet of you to arrange the tickets.

Thank you so much.

That shows that I actually noticed the effort you made.

100

I'm shining a light on it so that you see that effort too.

101

What it tells that person subconsciously is,

102

oh, I made an effort.

103

Look at that.

104

And if someone actually acknowledges and realizes they made an effort,

105

then it makes it more meaningful to them that they made that effort.

106

And of course, the fact that you're appreciating it makes you valuable too,

107

because not everyone does.

108

Number six, have them come to your part of town.

109

One of the staples of someone being casual is them always having the dates on their terms,

110

where they want, at a time that suits them.

111

What we want to do is bring someone into our world.

112

And one of the ways we can do that is simply by having them literally come to the area where we frequent,

113

where we live.

114

I'm not necessarily saying your house,

115

your apartment, but have them come to your part of town,

116

especially if that part of town means that they're the one who has to go out of their way this time.

117

And I always think that bringing someone into your world is a way of bonding them to you more.

118

If everyone is always kind of uprooting you from your world and putting you into theirs,

119

then they're in their element and you sort of exist as this,

120

you exist in the abstract in a way.

121

You're not a person with a life

122

and who is tethered in all of these ways

123

and has these interests and here's where you live and here's the places you go to,

124

here's your local coffee shop.

125

No, instead you just exist in their world as an idea.

126

One of the ways to be taken seriously is for someone to actually see your roots,

127

who you are, what you're all about.

128

The places that make someone realise,

129

oh, this person is a person with a life and things they love.

130

I remember the first time going to my now fiancée Audrey's place and seeing plants all over the apartment.

131

It was like a moment where I realized,

132

oh, this is something she really loves.

133

And I didn't know about it before that.

134

And that created more of a three-dimensional picture of who she was.

135

And like I've said before,

136

when someone becomes three-dimensional to us,

137

they are far harder to walk away from.

138

Number seven, regardless of your beliefs about who should pay on a first date,

139

at some point, pay for something.

140

whether it's you're the one who buys the tickets to something

141

or you pick up the tab in a restaurant

142

or you're ordering delivery and you just hand them your phone with the restaurant already selected

143

and say choose what you like and you're the one who does it on your account.

144

It shows that the dynamic isn't a transactional one.

145

It shows the absence of any kind of entitlement and it shows you're a team player,

146

that you're willing to contribute and when someone is thinking about their future,

147

More than anything else, registering that someone is a team player is a deep reason for choosing someone.

148

Number eight,

149

send them a picture from a different part of your life

150

where they see you in a context they haven't seen you yet.

151

We all are multi-dimensional, but a lot of people only see us in one context,

152

the date context.

153

It could be a picture

154

or a video of you having a fun moment with your family

155

and they get the context of you being this person who loves and is loved by these people in your life.

156

It could be you at a work conference where you're dressed up in your work attire and you say,

157

five hours of business workshops today, wish me luck.

158

And they get to see you in a professional context.

159

Whatever it is, it goes back to that idea of painting a three-dimensional picture about you.

160

A huge part of that is what I call unique pairings when someone sees that you're not just this thing,

161

you're that thing as well.

162

You're not just sexy and fun, you're professional.

163

You're not just professional, you're sweet and warm and a family person.

164

It shows these different parts of you that make you a complex and uniquely attractive person.

165

Number nine, send them an I was listening text.

166

This is where you send them a text message

167

that calls back to something they have told you about themselves or their interests.

168

So it could be that they talked about how they love movie scores and you send them

169

a text with a link to a movie score that you really love.

170

I thought you'd like this since you're so into movie scores.

171

When you do this, it's A,

172

a little vulnerable on your part,

173

and B, it shows that I actually,

174

even in the amount of time that we know each other,

175

which may not be very much,

176

understand something about you, something about what you like,

177

who you are as a person,

178

and in sending you something that relates to that,

179

it's almost a form of acceptance, isn't it?

180

It's a form of understanding and accepting who someone is.

181

Number 10, save them a cookie.

182

I mean, if you just go,

183

if you show up, you know,

184

to their house sometime and you say,

185

I made these for myself earlier,

186

but I saved you one because I know you really like cookies.

187

Obviously the cookies are a metaphor.

188

Unless you ever come to one of my events,

189

in which case this is very literal and I will never be unhappy with you saving me a cookie.

190

But it's also a metaphor.

191

Let's just call this one tiny gifts.

192

You don't wanna do it with big gifts.

193

Big gifts reek of trying too hard,

194

but little gifts shows that I was thinking of you when we weren't together.

195

And therefore you're a thoughtful,

196

kind person to be taken seriously.

197

Number 11, be playfully assumptive.

198

If someone sends you a message that says, what you're up to.

199

You say, why?

200

Miss me?

201

Then you follow with another message before you freak out and go,

202

that's so arrogant, I would never say that.

203

You immediately follow up and you say,

204

just kidding, I'm with my sister right now.

205

We're having such a good time,

206

what are you up to?

207

But the work has already been done.

208

You've already had that moment of being self-assured,

209

being extra confident, and also putting in their mind the idea that they miss you.

210

So that thought has been created.

211

You texted me because you miss me and I'm making you aware of that.

212

I am someone to be missed.

213

Number 12, avoid the bandwagon of agreeing with someone all the time.

214

One of the sexiest things we can do at times is disagree with someone.

215

Be willing to break rapport,

216

not aggressively, but in a way that shows that we have our own mind,

217

our own opinion, our own way of thinking.

218

I actually think one of the really sweet ways to put this into practice is

219

if you see the person that you're dating talking in a mean way about someone.

220

And you get to just kind of almost check them a little bit, sweetly and playfully.

221

But let's say they're saying something mean about someone.

222

You go, hey, be nice.

223

Now in that moment, you are calling someone out and that creates like just a little hair of friction,

224

which is good.

225

That kind of friction is actually good.

226

You're breaking rapport.

227

What it says to someone is,

228

I have a high standard for myself and you just fell beneath that standard for a moment and you're confident enough to,

229

albeit playfully and sweetly, check them on that.

230

Now, number 13 is I think the most surprising of all of these little techniques.

231

Before I tell you number 13,

232

did you, at the beginning of the video,

233

when I said, go over to howtogettheguy.com,

234

put in your name and hit start here,

235

tell it your love life problem,

236

it'll give you my best solution.

237

Did you do that?

238

Or did you just brush past it like it was a dove advert?

239

Like it was an advert for Pantene shampoo?

240

It's not.

241

It's an advert for me,

242

the guy that you came here to watch.

243

So please go over to howtogettheguy.com,

244

put in your name, tell it your love life problem,

245

and it will recommend you one of my solutions.

246

Seriously though, go over there.

247

It's really good.

248

And lots of people have benefited from it.

249

Now, number 13.

250

Number 13, beware the weekend away.

251

Now, the reason I think this is surprising is because when someone invites us on a trip,

252

it feels like it might be a route to something more serious,

253

a route to getting really bonded and connected with someone so that by the time we come back,

254

something more serious is on the cards.

255

The problem is if we just go and do that without assigning any meaning to it,

256

We run the risk of assuming that just because time spent away in close proximity with somebody

257

would mean a lot to us,

258

that it also means a lot to them too.

259

Now I'm not saying you absolutely shouldn't go and have that weekend away with somebody,

260

but what I am saying is they should not be in any doubt as to what something like

261

that means to you or the significance that something like that might have to you.

262

Now, by the way, if it has no significance to you,

263

that's okay, but we're not having that conversation.

264

If you want to go have a fun weekend with someone, go do it.

265

Just don't think it's going to move the needle on anything.

266

But what you can do if you're looking for something serious with someone

267

and they've invited you on a trip is say to them,

268

I instinctively want to say yes because I like you and I think we would have the best time.

269

but I also know that something like that is meaningful to me

270

and I wouldn't just be going on a trip with a boy if we weren't on the same page about it.

271

Now he may say about what which by the way if someone says about what that's normally a bad sign.

272

If someone starts acting obtuse when you say things like that that should be treated as a little bit of a warning.

273

But if they say about what,

274

then you say, well, you know,

275

about whether there's any intention behind this afterwards or whether it's just a bit of fun,

276

which is totally fine.

277

But I know myself, I wouldn't just be going on a trip with a boy if it was a bit of fun.

278

To recap on this point,

279

don't do it thinking that it will mean the same thing to them,

280

because that's a massive assumption and it may be wrong.

281

And don't go away with them without them knowing that it does mean something to you.

282

And by the way, for anyone out there who is nerdy like me

283

and just enjoys the language to put to these things,

284

in number four, we were talking about post-framing.

285

In other words, sending a message

286

or having a conversation with someone after the fact to let them know that it had meaning to you.

287

This is pre-framing, letting them know before you do the thing,

288

that it will have meaning to you.

289

Hey, let me know what you thought of this video.

290

We were excited to make this one for you and I'd love to know what you think.

291

Please leave us a comment.

292

Let us know which of the 13 was your favorite technique for being taken seriously and like the video,

293

subscribe to the channel, hit the notification bell so

294

that you get the notification for the next one and we'll see you next time.

295

Go over to howtogettheguy.com, put in your name,

296

tell it your love life problem and it will recommend you one of my solutions.

297

I kind of love it.

298

I like it.

299

I think we keep it.
