I've only got an idea what lawyers do via John grisham novels and TV shows. I recently got into a family case that I beat the rap with a public defender. My question is 40% of lawyers hate the profession what has been your experience as i've only have one friend who's a probate lawyer.
"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.
Question for my lawyers
- Thread starter eli77
- Start date
"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.

I have the degree but never took the bar and practiced. The profession ages you rapidly. I was a little older and went to law school in my early 30s with kids who were mostly 10 years younger, but now I can see from social media that they look older than me. Women get fat, men get fat and bald. My family thinks I am an embarrassment for not being a lawyer, but I see what it does to people, and I am happy to avoid it.

Probably because they are always running around doing things last minute, meeting up for lunches, drinks, etc with opposing counsel or lawyer friends, working long hours on cases and not taking care of their bodies.
Sitting for hours and hours doesn't help either, so it's not exactly a surprise.

My childhood friend is a criminal defense attorney here in MX.
5 years ago he had a full set of hair with the hairline intact. My boy is now shedding hard with a receding hairline and is contemplating just shaving it all off. Stress is killa.
The profession also has it’s vices.
Blow and adderall abuse are rampant and the statistics for attorney substance abuse are horrifying.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

The most valuable lesson I learned was that the answer to every question is "it depends. " And then after that, what does it depend upon is the next question. Law school can be a debt trap into misery or a gateway to greatness. The top 20 or so schools are worth it. Under that in school ranking, you have to be at the top of your class to have a chance at a good job. In my small town in middle America, rich lawyers paid for their sons and daughters to become lawyers like them. Everything is very expensive. I got lured in by a scholarship, which they didn't explain would get taken away if I did not get good grades, which is what happened. But I came up with the money and paid my way through.
Where are you located at and how high do you have to score on the LSAT to get into a top school I heard anything on the top 50 school anywhere in the united states is very overrated.

Admission is college GPA and lsat score. I never figured out one of the three lsat sections and score about as well as a monkey on that one, and then usually am one question away from perfect on the other 2 sections. 150 is average, so I thought my 152 was awful, but the local state school gave me a scholarship because my 152 raised their averages, lol.
"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 have a friend in probate law who ran for office not too long ago as a representative. How are things in the bible belt DM me sometimessi we can chat
