"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I went to the clinic this morning, I think I'm coming down with something.
 

"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.

I was wanting to know what you in particular thought about this, since you are into that conspiracy theory moon landing stuff.

Don't scare him, have pity on those poor doctors each time he wakes up from a nightmare.

I want to lea



I want to leave now but am waiting for my Feb 15th paycheck.
You sound like u r one of those independents that went over due to an offer from a local company.

Next time get hired in home base or through some European MNC and then be based in China.

That's gonna insulate you in lots of ways.

No mistake.

China is teetering on the brink of economic devastation.

The thing they fear most is an uprising.

Army is not big enough to quell the street light dance party.

So, they decided to proactively kill them.

That's why they purposely released it JUST as people were leaving for Lunar New Year.

This also solves the demographic time bomb.

Kill the oldest, sickest, and the working age folk are more of a majority.

From a immoral policy standpoint, this makes perfect sense.

It provides cover, keep people inside and terrified = no riot.

Kills the oldest and the weakest, the most likely to need government assistance as they grow old = no financial cliff.
Oh really?

I always knew that cowardice breeds fear.

However today I learned something new, that extreme fear also lowers one's IQ.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Well not to be a conspiracy theory hack, but if you guys go to boston.cbslocal.com their is a story about some researchers working for Harvard and Boston university that have been indicted for working with the chinese government. These researchers worked in the fields of biology and chemical biology. One was working with the Wuhan institute of technology. The names of the researchers stealing info for the chinese government were Dr. charles lieber , Yanqing ye , and zaosong zheng. They were also stealing biological material for the chinese government. By the way I have decided that in a worse case scenario, I am joining forces with Randall Flagg in Vegas.

This makes me believe more in the theory I had about this having something to do with the chines government and bio weapons. as far as the numbers and info provided by the chines government I don't trust anything they say about this or anything else. As far as panicking it is useless to panic as this will not help, best course of action is to stay calm, be aware , and act accordingly.

"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.

Unfortunately the predictions are pretty accurate so far...
Well, that's chicken feed compared to our normal seasonal flu that infects millions and kills up to 600,000 per year worldwide.

And its been going on for years.

Maybe this news might send OP over the edge and fry his circuits.

I would think it's the other way around.

Cowardice is a response to fear.

Of course, this could be one of those chicken egg things.

This has been known for a long time.

Nobody thinks rationally under extreme fear.

That's the whole point of the fight or flight response.

Sending all the energy to the muscles for maximum chance of escape.

Several studies have been done to show that one's average Sudoku score, for example, is significantly lowered while being chased by lions, tigers and bears, compared to sitting in a relaxing coffee shop.

Of course, when test subjects are sitting in relaxing coffee shops WITH cute baristas, the Sudoku scores drop back down.

The evidence suggests that fear of baristas is not as large as fear of getting eaten by lions, tigers, and bears.

"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.

Wonder how they tested that exactly?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.
