"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.

Do you think the "Campaign Against Sex Robots" has no sympathy for incels?

:D I am too old for the younger generations that I can probably relate to more.
In pickup, they call this a self fulfilling prophecy.

I am not suggesting you depict female nature at the work Christmas party and debunk "proud single moms" as a means of female retardation for not closing their legs plus ruining children's life.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

:D Haha I can relate. When my parents urge me to get a new set of briefs or say they like my stubble I feel I am at a stage where I feel it is useless. I go along with it without much complaint, even though I suspect how misandrist modern women work, speaking from the experience of a bullied, isolated 20-something. If only they could understand how frustrating it is being made to put something into a society that in the same breath is rejecting you. I'm probably too radical minded for people my own age bracket who have kids and work (i.e slaves) etc, and already I am too old for the younger generations that I can probably relate to more.
To be fair, I didn’t even get “sympathy” from my own family. Mom never wanted me to date. Dad and brother didn’t care either and never brought it up. It was just quietly “assumed” that I would be the single lone wolf. It was the weirdest thing.

Were you an awkward kid? As if to say, the stereotypical single guy?

At thirty, its incumbent upon female nature to ask when...! Believe me, I bitebmy tongue. I've mistakenly had Freudian slip moments of foolishness. Don't bother. You look like an *******. Its lose lose. Just act accordingly.

Have you seen Cobra Kai? Growing up, watching the Karate Kid, it takes me back. The step mom is the accurate portrayal of "proud single mom." Absolute train wreck. ****ing random men and in front of her kid. No discretion.

Use that "lone wolf" mentality as motivation. Be warned, it has limits. Also, you'll come to realize what and how you assume people view you is actually your subconscious and how you view yourself. Its not to say, people don't have their opinions but, its not relevant unless you feed it and allow it to hold power over you.

Yes to both.

I’ve seen Karate Kid. Would love to see Cobra Kai.

I still use the “lone wolf” mentality and wear it like a badge of honor. I agree that it has limits though.

Thanks.

Pickup points this out. Rsd Tyler for example.

Mike mate, good luck. Its not a easy ride. More importantly, there's no end in site. Obv, take her # but, TRP piece holds weight here.

Not your girl. Its just your turn.

Let it ride. But #set.
 

"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.

In my opinion borderline young men and older men are moving toward a mgtow lifestyle.

By borderline young men I mean guys aged 25-35 which are not ugly but not hot either, that group basically finds itself dealing with leftover women dropped from chads while being forced to deal with drama, bullsh1t ang games.
Very good point. At some point in that stage of life, I just stopped putting up with all that, and only pursued women that didn't make things difficult for me.
