"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.

Soft Generation?

Hey guys I've been hearing recently that millennials are just a flat out soft generation.

Being 19 myself I'm starting to believe it.

I wouldn't call myself the softest person out their but defiantly not the toughest. I was spoiled as a child and I'm starting to see that being spoiled probably had a negative effect on my life now because I would say I am soft. However I see the vast majority of people my age are way softer than I am.

What are your guys thoughts?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You're a product of your environment. If you've never had a reason to be tough, well, you won't be. Social conditioning plays a large role as well.

All this nonsense I've been hearing lately about "bullying" is laughable, especially bullying through social media. We're breeding very soft men these days.

IT's called lack of testosterone...each generation has less testosterone than the last...pretty soon 5 year olds are going to be on TRT because their levels are so low
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

if you were born in the 90's i feel bad for you son. your basically a poosy.You missed the boat by a couple years. When we were kids myspace/fb etc wasnt even in our mind at all. being born in the 90's means you grew up with technology in its heightened modern form and with beta hippy 70's raised parents raising you.

I am getting injected chock full of T. From a level of 325 to 968. I feel better. It will last a lifetime I imagine but well worth it.

Where are you doing that and is it safe
Slow your roll...you are 19, you have no need for that. You want great T levels? Hit the gym, lift weights, eat properly and sleep. At your age that's literally all you need to do.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Turn the radio on and try to find a song where a manly voice can be heard. It's impossible.
Even though I believe we live in good times, men need things to turn their survival instinct on. That's what makes a man.
Now you can't just go out and punch every individual you see or turn everybody against you but I believe hitting the gym , taking financial risks, approaching and fcking chicks are some substitutes that can turn your survival instincts on.

Those are all more likely to happen when you have high testosterone levels

We live in a world where the feminine imperative MUST always come first so of course men are going to be soft.

There is more push for so called "gender equality" which is code word for addressing only the situations that benefit women.

Several decades ago men decided they would start listening more to women and allowing women to make more decisions. Each generation of men since has expanded on that.. giving women more and more say, authority and power over their lives.

Today in 2015/2016 most men are pathetic, desperate, co-dependent emo faggots who have no purpose in life outside of accepting emotional slavery under any and every woman who will take the thrown. Today's men are raised to believe all things masculine are wrong, inappropriate, offensive and crude. But more importantly, men no longer take control of their identity. They allow women to dictate expectations of men, "relationship rules" etc. and they follow along with it.

Today's men don't dictate sh!t. They are puppy dogs worshiping women, employers and celebrities.

If you live with your parents which cover most of your expenses and you take your life into your hands.

If you have 100k and you choose to invest them somewhere .

There are many examples.

Ahhh I get that. I never bet more than Im willing to lose.

I see no difference between spending 40 bucks at the bar and 40 bucks at the casino. If I make money sick if not oh well i see it as a fun night out vs a way to make money
My dad was a big gambler. He would lose thousands. He would get drunk and ask me if I thought he should bet. I will tell him no. He would do it anyway lose and blame me. Now it wouldn't bother me. As a 16 yo kid it did.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
