Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
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.
Omg with all the other odds stacked against these days guys have to find virgins too? Well it will solve overpopulation quickly.
Perhaps because some people on this forum are about excellence in life in general and male-female relationships in particular, and not about mediocrity and half-assing.Why this forum continues to fixate on the whole virgin thing I truly don't understand
I think I can safely say that the vast majority of the posters here are not about "mediocrity and half-assing." I know that certainly doesn't apply to me or to a handful of posters I regularly have interacted with over years of being here - despite your generalization. On the other hand, I think it is fair to point out the unrealistic expectation of "only marrying a virgin" for anyone over the age of probably 21 at most. If you think that is advocating for mediocrity then so be it.Perhaps because some people on this forum are about excellence in life in general and male-female relationships in particular, and not about mediocrity and half-assing.![]()
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Yeah, but just as unrealistic are truly happy, fulfilled marriages. Why is that? Because assuming the guy has his shyt together, he doesn't properly screen the woman. He goes with what's 'realistic'... first it's not 'realistic' to find a virgin, then he starts to believe that we all make mistakes and that BS so it's not 'realistic' to find someone who had less than 5 relationships and 10 dycks up her ass if she's over 30. So what's left to do for our 'realistic' guy? He tries to be Captain Save A Hoe and then he is surprised when his life as a married man has less sex than when he was single but he's much more miserable.On the other hand, I think it is fair to point out the unrealistic expectation of "only marrying a virgin" for anyone over the age of probably 21 at most.

I politely disagree. Just last year I met a few virgins in their mid-late 20s, never had a bf, etc. The thing is, all but one of them didnt pass the boner test. Total whales.Realistically, in the Western world, the only way a guy is getting a true virgin is if they end up together in high school and get married. In almost every other single situation, a woman is going to, at a minimum, have had sex with a boyfriend in the past. Why this forum continues to fixate on the whole virgin thing I truly don't understand since a whopping 0% of the forum falls in the category of being with their high school sweetheart (to my knowledge).
I suppose you may find some foreign woman where there is a possibility she is a virgin. But I would think that is even then incredibly rare.
Lol well yes. If they are totally ugly girls then you might be able to find a couple virgins. In this case they are essentially men. Also, how sure are you that they are not lying. Maybe 1 or 2 were being truthful but the other ones might be lying.I politely disagree.

Yes expecting a happy fulfilled marriage is unrealistic. You are living in delusional land my friend. Marriage is hard work that is only worth it in order to raise stable children. Without children, marriage is ridiculous.Yeah, but just as unrealistic are truly happy, fulfilled marriages. Why is that?

Past sexual history is relevant in a marriage situation.Are you guys who are married or considering it affected by the woman's past sexual history?
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
WTF. You sound butthurt or something. From time to time you also sound like a broken record, repeting and repeating that women with low notch counts are just as valuable as virgins, which is pointless because that´s up to every man to decide for himself.I was hesitant to post this but decided what the heck, gonna post.
To the men who seek virgins and degrade women who aren't, you talk like you think sex is some dirty disgusting activity and women who engage in it before marriage (or sometimes even after) are gross, disgusting and aren't "pure."
One poster in particular keeps harping on how non-virgins are "disgusting."
What makes a woman engaging in sexual intimacy with a past serious boyfriend so disgusting to you?
Would you deem a virginal woman disgusting after having sex with you?
Answer - yes I've heard of men losing all attraction for his virgin wife after having sex with her believing her to be "disgusting."
Giving him license to abuse her, in some cases kill her!
I've worked with women whose abusive boyfriends and husbands had this mindset, calling them "disgusting wh0res" after they had sex with them. They were virgins prior.
Not sure where this hatred towards women and sex stems from, perhaps from their own fathers? Trickle down?
Or a Madonna/Wh0re complex?
Who the hell knows.
I wish y'all luck.
Because I seek understanding. If that bothers you, feel free to place me on ignore, I won't be offended.
About what? And you can stop asking me to ignore you, I wont do it.Because I seek understanding.
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.
To be fair I never called them disgusting. I believe that was someone elseAbout the mindset. I really would like to understand it.
I asked a couple questions in my post, since you care enough about what I post and to respond, can you answer the questions?
This one in particular.
>>What makes a woman engaging in sexual intimacy with a past serious boyfriend so disgusting to you?
When she's that fickle then she's not marriage material. You need consistency if you want to live together with someone and perhaps start a family.You don't get it. In the MOMENT they do feel that way. Then like a leaf blowing in the wind, their feelings change direction...
U r welcome. I learned it the hard wayThank you. Perhaps that's the answer.
I agree with all of this.Realistically, in the Western world, the only way a guy is getting a true virgin is if they end up together in high school and get married. In almost every other single situation, a woman is going to, at a minimum, have had sex with a boyfriend in the past.

Well, then the other points still stand. Furthermore, why did the relationship end? I tend to put the burden of blame on women because they are about relationships and emotions more than men who are about sex. Men are supposed to be like mustangs who freely roam the prairie and bang whoever they can. Then a particular woman manages to corral them in a relationship. What's the reason for their escape? I often hear the reason: relationship just ran its course. Well, I say that's generally speaking BS. That shouldn't happen unless extraordinary circumstances, and when it happens 5 times to the same person it's clearly her, not the circumstances.I agree with you about that . I am not talking about sexually promiscuous women, but rather a woman who has engaged in sexual intimacy with a previous boyfriend.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
