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.
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.
No. He and tenacity must have been laughing at how gullible some of you wereDid you send him nudes yes or no?
Who, da dyn? Yep. I've talked to a bunch of SS guys over pm, never sexually tho, no nudes, nothing like that, nothing sexual.Isnt it true you PMd him?
Lol, oh boy. He wanted me to prove I wasn't a guy so I texted him my picture. I'm surprised you didn't get a copy, I hear he passed it around. Bigneil gave me a 7. But it wasn't a nude. He also passed out my phone number and two ss'ers called me. IMO pretty beta behavior all the way around.So when he said "@sazc is actually a hot chick" he was making it up?
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 have nothing to hide and id prefer the truth be toldI expected you to cut me off a while back haha
Oh good Lord. He tried. It was not pretty, lol
#Word on thatOh good Lord. He tried. It was not pretty, lol
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 should pm me tonight.....lolWho, da dyn? Yep. I've talked to a bunch of SS guys over pm, never sexually tho, no nudes, nothing like that, nothing sexual.
Thanks but I've learned my lesson lolYou should pm me tonight.....lol
Sh!t happens sazc, Don't let a couple of experiences in the past dictate the future, sometimes you will miss out on things.......Thanks but I've learned my lesson lol
Meh, I also had tenacity scream at me in pm telling me I was a racist, and other unsavory things. Lots of shiz went down in pm that I did not deserve. It's disabled now. It's easier that waySh!t happens sazc, Don't let a couple of experiences in the past dictate the future, sometimes you will miss out on things.......
I hear ya though.
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.
True.Lots of thirsty guys out there, and apparently on this forum. Respect. Learn it. Live it. Including here.
There are no girls on the internet, this is widely known fact.Omg there's girls on the internet.
The internet is a sausage fest. Just look at this place.There are no girls on the internet, this is widely known fact.
