    Frequently Asked Questions

    The Ben Franklin effect is a psychological phenomenon where a person likes someone more after doing a favor for them. This happens because the brain attempts to resolve the internal inconsistency of helping someone by rationalizing that they must actually value or like that person. To use this in a dating context, the script suggests asking a crush for a small, insignificant favor—such as holding a drink or asking for their opinion—to subconsciously "brainwash" them into viewing you more favorably.

    The triangle gaze is a non-verbal technique used to signal sexual interest without being overly aggressive. Instead of maintaining constant, direct eye contact, you let your eyes travel in a small triangular pattern: looking at one eye, then the other, and then down to the person's mouth before returning to the eyes. This subtle movement is a primal cue that the brain picks up on instantly, communicating attraction and interest in a way that feels more natural than a "job interview" style stare.

    Intermittent reinforcement involves being unpredictable with your attention and validation, similar to how a slot machine works. Because dopamine is an "anticipation" chemical rather than just a reward chemical, it spikes when a reward is uncertain. By being intensely engaged one moment and then slightly distant or busy the next, you create a "prediction error" in the other person's brain. This causes their serotonin levels to drop and their dopamine to spike, leading them to obsessively replay conversations or check for messages as they try to solve the "pattern" of your attention.

    The Attraction Phase is driven primarily by dopamine and norepinephrine, which create the "spark," the thrill of the chase, and intense, goal-directed motivation. As a relationship progresses, it moves into the Attachment Phase, which is governed by oxytocin—the "bonding hormone." This phase is characterized by feelings of safety, trust, and "nervous system co-regulation." The script notes that many people mistakenly think the spark is dying when dopamine settles, but it is actually a "neurochemical handover" where the brain moves from pursuit to long-term bonding.

    Mirroring is the act of matching a person’s physical movements and energy to activate their mirror neuron network, which signals neurological compatibility and safety. To avoid looking like a "mime," the script advises mirroring the general energy and tempo rather than literal movements. For example, if a crush is talking fast and using large gestures, you should match that high-energy state. By aligning your "operating system" with theirs, you subconsciously communicate that you are similar to them, which builds deep-seated trust and rapport.
