RTP#22: The Tarzan Law

Why Tarzan Law?

Simply because of the concept of Tarzan swinging through the jungle
Using the swingable objects in there

Let me just call those the ropes

And the Tarzan Law is really good because if you don't want to proceed
You can just let go of your current rope then go find a new rope to start swinging again

A friend sent me quote one time

“Hindi mo pwedeng piliin ang makakatabi mo sa bus,
ganyan din sa love”

I don't fully believe it

Because of the first rope
And I call it

The Hunt – this is a very interesting and thrilling part in the Tarzan Law. This is where you'll be asking your friends to set you up with someone or with that one or you'll start to attend the classes that you find boring because you have a hot classmate. This may take long or short there's no constant time frame for this. If it's taking too long be patient.

Once you found someone

Then it's time to jump to the second rope
Which have two choices

The Background and The Approach

The Background – this is when you start asking question to your friend who set you up, what is she like? Where is she from? Then the best place to have a knowledge on the girl is through her Friendster account.

The Approach – this is when you're going to make your move to meet the hot girl in your class, and start to know her and try to ask her out on a lunch eventually.

After knowing details or making her agree

Next would be The Move

The Move – when you're in date you want to show your better side to her and try to know her better, then here you can insert the chunks that you have researched about it would really help, especially when the awkward silence comes. Try to show as much interest as possible, because once your date doesn't really see that you are not the interested the you would really not able to go anywhere from here. This is a very crucial point in The Tarzan Law. And be careful because if you found out that she's not the way you expected her to be and you just lost interest on her, still get through the date nicely and then make a flowless drop from this rope then start all over again.

If The Move goes on pretty well
Then reach out grab the next rope

The Follow-up – if you are really having a good time spending time with her, then she somehow feels the same way towards you then this rope is going to build your relationship. The Follow-up is like the second and succeeding dates, where you can start to show your other side as well. And this is where the developing thing starts.

Things are starting to get better after this rope
The next rope would really speed up the process

So I'll just call it The Booster

The Booster – this is basically you being there for her everytime she needs someone. Whether she needs help or just someone to keep her company, you MUST be there. She will really appreciate and like you more because you are always there for her. Especially if she's really going through a hard time, this is your best chance to speed things up. And don't you ever dare to let go while you are still holding on this rope.

Then if you still want to jump to the next one
Then it's the most crucial rope of all the ropes in the Tarzan Law

The Wall – take it from the name because if you won't be able to pass through this rope you'll lose everything even though you don't want to. This is the part where you are going to tell her about how you feel for her. Do it in the most romantic way you know. Look straight to her eyes while you are telling her everything. You only have one shot at this, better not blew it or else it's over.

The much awaited part is the next one

The Difference Maker – this is what she's going to say after you have said how you feel for her. If she replies in a positive way, then congratulations dude, you may have just got her. And if she replies in a not so good way, then don't lose hope try to talk her out of it. If there's nothing you can do about it and she doesn't really want it, try to wait for her. And remember you're still recovering from the hard bump on The Wall so if you're going to wait just make sure that you will do everything to hold on that rope and not . And if you cannot take it anymore, just drop off it. Maybe it's not really meant to be.

If you're still surving then just jump to the next rope

Knowing that you both have mutual feelings for one another
This time there's two ropes to choose from

The Question and The Fish

The Attack – here you are going to ask her if you can officialy court her. It's up to you on how and when are you going to do it. This is very risky there's also several responses that you can hear from her. One is “Yes”, two is “No”, three is “Not now”, four is “I'm not ready”, etc. If you have to wait again just hold on tight don't let go.

And if you don't want to take the huge leap and risk it all
Let me lead you to your next rope

The Fish – from what it's called it is basically just going through the flow. Let the current guide you to her. This might really take long, but most probably you don't need to court her after this. Just go through this like you did in The Booster. Then you may make her develop her feelings for you and make her fall in love in you.

Then let's say you are now a couple

Then it's the end of the Tarzan Law

Tarzan is finally home with Jane

Let me give you a recap of my Tarzan Law:

The Hunt
The Background/The Approach
The Move
The Follow-up
The Booster
The Wall
The Difference Maker
The Question/The Fish

Of course I cannot guarantee you a 100% success in the Tarzan Law

Let me list down reasons why:

1.You let go of your rope
2.She blocked you while you're jumping to another rope which caused you to fall
3.There's no 3rd reason

Well you see mutual feelings are very important in the Tarzan Law
And if she's not feeling the same way then you may experience the 2nd reason that I gave
Or if you don't feel the same way that she feels for you then just put the 1st reason into action

And don't dare to skip a single rope in going to another one. I'm sure it won't do you any good.

And the time frame for the Tarzan Law is not constant, it may or may not take a long time for you to reach the end. It really depends on how the girl would respond.

And again for the very last time, if she asks you to wait, don't let go no matter what. Just be patient and you'll be with her.
