So are you a lawyer then ? If not then what area of criminal justice do you work in?You're a cop, and this is the way you interpret the law? I'm not sure what to say.
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.

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.
I'm not in criminal justice at all, but even I'm aware of the concept of reasonable force. As an officer of the law, I would expect you to be more familiar with it than I am.So are you a lawyer then ? If not then what area of criminal justice do you work in?
I will not debate you unless you work in the field. We will have to agree to disagree. I do not appreciate the personal attack element of your replies.I'm not in criminal justice at all, but even I'm aware of the concept of reasonable force.

Have you had bad dealings with the police? Many, many people have. I've only had one citizen complaint on me ever, and it was deemed unfounded.As a civilian, I would be told ignorance of the law is no excuse.

In the courts of morals and karma, I might agree with you, depending on what she was saying.I still think she got exactly what she deserved.
I'm just reporting the state of the law...as it has existed for over a thousand years. I promise, when the Romans thought this sh!t up in about 600 AD, I had absolutely nothing to do with their decisions.you are incapable of sensing the massive chasm in your logical approach to the situations.
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.
Not personally. Actually, after thinking about it, I will apologize if I offended you. It was wrong of me to involve your occupation in my comments. I know men take their line of work very personally, as it should be.Have you had bad dealings with the poice?
I don't think it had any sound, as if there was, I didn't hear it either.I watched the video without sound so maybe i missed something d.
Agreed. Whether or not this girl deserved this according to the law is becoming irrelevant to me. If you go around looking for trouble long enough, you will certainly find it.I strongly believe the world is a better place when it is generally accepted that aggressively poking and following someone can earn you a punch in the mouth.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Just admit that your degree is from The University of Google, and we can be friends.As we can all see from the reading of the California statute, what you thought law schools teach is clearly grossly wrong.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
