Hey guys. I wondered if I need a certain quantity of experience to be successful with friends with benefits. Cause I don't want to be exclusive again
"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.
Friends with benefits (I'm from Germany idk if that is the right description)

"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.

This is the wrong forum for this. Moving to Anything Else forum.

None at all is required. Marriage is little more than friends with benefits that's been recognized by the state, and 17 year olds who've never dated anyone but the person their marrying enter into such contracts all the time

I disagree. It takes some skill to maintain a woman's emotions to give her "all the feelz" to keep her attracted. It takes some discipline and knowledge of weight training to build a physique to get her physically attracted enough. If she's physically attracted enough, she'll give a man more leeway on behaviors. This is the whole "women make rules for betas but break rules for alphas thing". Knowledge of sexual techniques that will make it more likely she achieves orgasms will also help with this.
I see your point on this. Many men enter into marriage because they like the way the woman looks and want to keep her having sex with him. They feel like they need to do this because women control the access to sex.

Escalate, dont give exclusivity, rinse & repeat with another girl
"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.

You have to be extremely immature to believe that.
