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.
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.
I'm not surprised. In the 2010s, when I went out on the night of January 1 in Dallas, I found it dead and women were no more receptive that night than other regular nights during the year.Flat dead in DC
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.
That's great. I think you did the right thing. NYE is the night of December 31. I agree that the night of December 31 (NYE) is amaetur night. This thread is about the night of January 1, last night. The first night out after the beginning of the year. The night of January 1 is supposed to have a different audience than amateur hour on December 31.I didn’t go out because NYE is a stupid amateur holiday and not worth the risk/price. I noticed a couple of my friends were fighting with their gfs due to NYE planning drama. Me and my girl did everything during the day and just stayed on the couch and watched football lol.
shvt, my bad lmao. I never knew people went out on January 1st unless it appeared on a weekend like this year. I live in a popular bar area of the city and it seemed tame last night.That's great.

It's the biggest party night of the year typically.Why is Thanksgiving the easiest day of the year to get laid?
That's why Roosh originally wrote the article about the night of January 1 back in February 2011. He was making the point that the night of January 1 was an overlooked night in terms of getting laid via nightlife. He had personal success with it and it was an uncommon take. At the time I read the article, it was so persuasive to me that I tried it and even tried it a 2nd time. Both times it was dead and a not so good experience. It's possible I chose poorly on venues but I was going to venues in the most active parts of the city.I never knew people went out on January 1st unless it appeared on a weekend like this year.

That night before Thanksgiving has a big reputation. I've never tried that night.It's the biggest party night of the year typically.
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.
From what I hear lately and current arrest reports, Nola is now one of the easiest cities to become a crime victim in …Does anybody have any reports on the ease of getting laid due to Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday)?
Mardi Gras in the French Quarter in New Orleans is different than Mardi Gras in nearly any other city. I'd be more interested in reading non-New Orleans answers, but a New Orleans story would be welcomed if someone has one.
New Orleans is a dangerous city in general. It's a high crime place due to the poverty of the area.From what I hear lately and current arrest reports, Nola is now one of the easiest cities to become a crime victim in …
Decent girls will stay grouped, not a good environment to pull stray poon in
I would say private parties are a safer bet cause you have the comfort of the safer environment, better logistic while girls have lower inhibitions due to the maska and make ups.Many men think Halloween is an easy night for getting same night sex from a nightlife venue or private party.
Halloween falls on a Tuesday this year. More of the Halloween party type events were last night or will be tonight.
How successful have you been on Halloween?
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.
Private residence parties are usually a better option any night of the year as compared to a bar open to the general public. I also think it is true for Halloween as well.I would say private parties are a safer bet cause you have the comfort of the safer environment, better logistic while girls have lower inhibitions due to the maska and make ups.
Me personally I enjoyed a lot halloween 2013 but probably cause I was in the right place and the right moment...and I was in my 20s.
If it was about attention oring in 2011 I dont even wanna think now....damn anyway really miss the early 10s.Private residence parties are usually a better option any night of the year as compared to a bar open to the general public. I also think it is true for Halloween as well.
Some guys swear by Halloween as a good night for getting same night sex from nightlife venues but Roosh in 2011 argued that Halloween was more about attention whorring than actual whorring.
In the early 2010s, I was in my late 20s.If it was about attention oring in 2011 I dont even wanna think now....damn anyway really miss the early 10s.
