"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

So Suave was reformatted in 2015 to support Likes (previously it had a strange system of weighted credits or debits). For that reason, the older members don't have the same like percentage (which would be another useful statistic).

Based on total likes here are the top 12 SoSuave members (each has between 1000 and 2000 likes):

1) Poon King (1915)
2) Desdinova (1804)
3) Bible Belt (1628)
4) marmel75 (1528)
5) Espi (1454)
6) deesade (1283)
7) Tictac (1276)
8) RangerMike (1243)
9) El Payaso (1230)
10) guru1000 (1063)
11) Atom Smasher (1048)

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Right behind you
Lol Tictac got banned. He didn't really post useful advice, he was just such a huge ******* that his posts were funny. Whatever happened to guru though? I recall that he said if he didn't become a millionaire with 5 years, he would take a gun and kill himself and was serious about it. Not gonna assume the worst, but I do wonder what happened to him because I always liked his posts.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

From what I remember reading in his thread, he was already 7-figure status. He was describing a story and conviction he put forth five years earlier to get him to where he was.

I highly doubt that.
