"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.

article: I Fell In Love With A Man More Than Twice My Age. I Wasn't Prepared For What Marrying Him Would Mean.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Women have aprox 10 years of peak fertility.. peak time of attractiveness. Raising kids (the ultimate goal of sex and sexual attraction) takes 8 years after which the kids start to get some independence and rely less on their parents, but more on the "community" - peers, friends, other relatives, etc.


Successful old men having kids w/ younger women have been happening since the beginning of time. Just by living so old, these men have a proven record of having superior DNA at least, for the most part. Because of the "soft" environment we are living in now, some old people are just idiots. But in general through out history, living to old age means these men are resistant to cancer, and other alignments. I think that is why a lot of women are attracted to older men. It's a primal dna thing.

In terms of longer term relationships, the women get a tough deal in a lot of cases in relationship age gaps of 20+ years.

Longer term relationships don't make a lot of sense for either party in the case of a 20+ year age difference.

10-15 years of age difference can still work but even that age difference can produce a fair amount of issues.

The typical 35-50 year old man isn't that excited about dating a woman within 5 years of his own age.

1) women get resources built up through the years from the man...
2) women get good genes (tested through age)
3) everyone dies... good offsprings will take care of her if the man passes away first; don't forget if he's successful the valuable mentoring and advice he will impact on her and their offspring's; and the money/resources he leaves behind.

At the end of the day, men are wanted for the resources they provide; this comes in many form: family connections, built in investments, wisdom, the genes they will impart on their offspring's, etc.


Women's main contributor to being a couple is their ability to have kids. Remember according to a lot of research, one of the biggest factor on whether your kids are successful or not, are based on the genes each parents bring to the table.

In many may/December relationships, if the man died the next day, the woman would still be better off than if she was in a relationships with an average man.

Every book has pages and words in them. They make books every year. However, there are some books that have been tested by time and are classics. For these books, it's not really about the paper or ink; but the ideas inside them. A lot of older successful men are like that; a lot of women know this on a subconscious level.
 

"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.

Depends a lot on how you get old

If you look youthful and healthy or not

I am looking at Spanish women, most of them are better looking in the their late 20s - mid 30s than they look when they are younger

The opposite is also true for Slavic women, who look amazing in their teens - early 20s but start to look like sh1t once they pass their late 20s

For sure, exceptions exist

I would say that money is just as important for women as it is for men in order to preserve as best possible as they age

Men don’t want relationships with young and fertile and sexy, they want sex and babies from them

Men don’t want sex and babies with older and less fertile and less sexy, they want companionship and commitment from them.

Essentially, men just want a hot young maid who speaks very little English.

Very interesting article to read. She seems like a decent, balanced woman.

Reminded me of a conversation I had approximately 10 years ago. Drinking at a tiki hut on a beach in Florida. Older gal sitting next to me (she was probably the age I am right now ). We struck up a conversation. During the course of our talk, I told her I had a girlfriend who was 15 years younger than me. Said I was a little concerned about the age difference. She brushed it off as nothing, said: “Love is where you find it”. Told me that she had married a guy 25 years older than her. I asked her how it had turned out… “ He died 4 years later, but we had the time of our lives, no regrets“. We both laughed and did a shot to the toast: “Love is where you find it”.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
