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.
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.
lol. 16 is legal here. We have no age gap laws
Yeah it's a sad state of affairs that girls are encouraged by simps to do these things.Hey if societal law says 16 year olds are mature enough, then they're mature enough... Can't tell me 16 year olds are vulnerable innocent little angels, then in the span of two years, they're of sound mind to be cramming cucumbers up their pusssies on onlyfans. Can't have it both ways.
Yeah basically.What does this mean? Approach them with aloofness?
Read Dr. David Sinclair, you might be interested in him.Simple, looksmax , lift, young maxx, I hope when im 30+, there is a light version of facelift that could make me look early 20s. A man can only hope
It is an outlier. We speak in probabilities not possibilities.Just because it doesn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
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's fair.It is an outlier. We speak in probabilities not possibilities.
You don't hang out with rich 30+ year old guys that's why. Also, no one is going to germany to get young chicks.I've been thinking about (and observing) the notion of that if you're a high value guy, you can easily get girls in their early 20's. I call BS. Here in Germany, I have yet to see a girl that's early 20's and that is together with a guy in his mid 30's - I have never ever seen it. They're always with guys around their age, or a little bit older - and of course good looking ones. The mid 30's guys are pushing the strollers with their gf's down the streets with their kids in them. So not sure where people are getting this information, but it's far from what I see in reality, or at least here.
We're not talking about rich guys, we're talking about averageYou don't hang out with rich 30+ year old guys that's why. Also, no one is going to germany to get young chicks.
Average 20 year old guys arent getting young girls. What's the point?We're not talking about rich guys, we're talking about average
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Do you mean for LTR or ONS ?Anyone who thinks they could manage 15-20 years is living in la la land
Preferences don't matter, the reality does
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.
LTRDo you mean for LTR or ONS ?
Yeah, all my friends want the 18 year old girls half their age when we go out to bars, but only one guy (the chad lol) is ever able to pull it off. The rest just get rejected.It’s definitely easier said than done and most men aren’t able to pull this off
