"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.

If ever I had another reason not to use this pro-feminist app it's this.I just read in the news where Bumble will not allow any more pictures with guns in them on their site.I have done quite well with gun pics in the past on my dating profiles..just another swipe at real men imo....what do you think ?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I wish they would ban duck faces as all those do for me is make me think of going duck hunting with my guns.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

I used to just post a couple of pics of me in Desert Storm holding the old M16A1 rifle and some hunting pics as well.

I don't see how disallowing gun pics on Bumble makes it safer. If anything it makes its more dangerous, because now you don't know who is into guns and who isn't.
Guns are very popular amongst girls in my state. For a while pics of girls at the gun range was more trendy than their stupid snap chat filters.

And @MidnightCity, 22% of females own guns! I've dated several that own them. They usually seek men that are into guns as well. Its a way to set yourself apart from the crowd and have something in common.

On a side note...The chic that runs bumble used to work for Tinder. She got sideways with them and filed a sexual harassment lawsuit and won. That's where she got the start up money for Bumble.

Well guns are very difficult to own legally in nyc and I’m not really a criminal so yea.....that doesn’t really have a bearing on my masculinity. But I wonder what the numbers are for women that own dogs or are animal lovers in general
US cities that are tough on guns like LA,and especially Chicago are the ones with the highest crime rates.The cities with the lowest crime rates make it easy to own a gun.Libtards in NYC and Chicago can kill themselves off though as far as I'm concerned the world will be a better place if they do.

Not really related about guns but I notice that european cities where violence is common happen to have thugs and immigrants to behave the best.

On the other side peaceful and safe low violence enviroments (till 10yrs ago) are the ones where you cant even hit the main train station without unwanted attention.

It seems to me that in a globalized world where no enviroment is disconnected from others, violence in some way or an other tends to level up.

Btw I own guns but at the same time I realize most of europeans (southerns especially) clearly lack the education and temper to make a good use of them.

You should probably see a therapist.

It's okay to like guns, but you won't pick up any ***** by putting guns all over your profile. It's the same concept as pictures of your new sports car, albeit even worse because guns are killing machines and death doesn't make women feel comfortable (all dating sites cater to women). People don't care about your fetish nearly as much as you do.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"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.
