"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.

What I have noticed in older guys that get prime women versus most that struggle.

Gosh, I can only imagine how brutally a 5'5" man would get heightmogged in volleyball. :mad:
I saw a short guy that played pretty well. Watch out for those self-limiting beliefs.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

They embrace the stage of life they are in instead of longing for youth itself.

Didn't read the whole post but yeah, agree with this. Older players know. Don't be that guy. Remember in college when the 30 something bro showed up at the house party and did beer bongs?

Most 30s/40s guys don't date 18-24 year old women due to a lack of access and often a lack of money
Yeah. The main bar I go to on weekends is filled with only 18-24 year old college girls. Because I'm 30, the first couple times I went the door guy would look at my ID and then be like, "students only". But I'm a student at the local community college here, so they let me in.

Access.

Girl I'm seeing is 24. I told her about a week ago that I was 30 after at first avoiding the question (she assumed I was 22. As do most girls around this age). If you look good (face, haircut, physique and clothes wise), there shouldn't be any issues.

I won't even entertain a woman under 35 these days. I have nothing to talk to younger women about and I find them boring, unrelatable and endlessly annoying.

Plus most of them tap out relatively quickly. Young girls can't take d!ck properly to save their lives.
Won't entertain a woman under 35? Uh, how old are you?

Agreed on older woman taking **** better.
 

"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.

I haven't seen any older dudes day gaming on campus, but then again I don't go as often as I used to.

I've thought about doing something like that, but I don't feel comfortable yet to do it.
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

IMO it's a loser activity I can't picture myself doing daygame now in my late 30s
If you happen to be at a dayparty, or brunch and you see some girls you want to approach I'm cool with that
But to make time out of your day, drive to a college campus just to "sarge" seems like a loser activity
Unless you're a millionaire or super chad/Tyrone you should not be out there doing college campus approaches like a loser
And Then I know guys who are millionaires/Tyrones that would pick college chicks up at college bars

just my opinon

I don't remember seeing any non-students doing daygame on campus when I was in undergrad or in grad school during the 2000s.

Is there any difference between doing an approach session at a college campus as a non-student vs. taking time out of your day to do approach sessions at a park, busy foot traffic area on the street, walking/hiking path, or any indoor retail location (malls, grocery stores, etc.)?

Doing approaches at bars that are mainly college bars (near a university) is different than doing approaches on campus on a weekday afternoon.

I had the impression that he wouldn't daygame anywhere...

Hit the nail on the head as long as you are not dissing daygame as a whole. My take is if you want to do daygame as an older guy, which can be fruitful, do it at a busy street in a massive city and do it where there are adults. To make time out of your day to go to a college campus where you are clearly out of place is low value behavior.

My sense of humor isn't the issue, I am just not interested in women I can't have a conversation with. I can't do stupid.
What do old women have to talk about that’s so interesting? Their kids? Their ex husband? How bitter and jaded they are after years on the carousel? How broke they are? You find all that interesting? Give me 29 and below any day!
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

I run 2 businesses working 12 hours a day, for me to do that would be a waste of time. I don't know any guy making 6 or 7 figures who got time to day game consistently unless they are teaching pick up as a profession and then even then I know guys who do and don't even do that

I have nothing against cold approach day or night since this is how I came up on this site 15 years ago, however, once you get into your 30s you should start to have a lifestyle where women are part of it and women bring other women. I know it's easier said than done but it can be done.

Sounds like you have problems finding quality women if that's what they talk about to you.

I do. I can’t find a quality women in her 30’s to save my life. I can find them in their 20’s though and I do. Matter of fact I’m talking to a 28 yr old redhead right now who I have a lot in common with, our conversations are never boring.

How old are you?
 

"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.
