"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Roll Call...How did you guys spend your Saturday night? Me personally, I took walk in the park with my dog, sat on the bench a little bit and ate some ice cream, took a survey of the area but there weren't really anybody or women for that matter on the walking trails.....then I went home and worked out in my garage and did an MMA kickboxing and yoga work out. Then I took a hot bath then went to sleep. It's Sunday here in South East Asia, about to eat breakfast. What about you guys how you spending your Saturday night?
 

"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.

Weekends are for the main gal
Weekdays to yourself or for maybe a contender
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Scaramouche, I live close to a park near my neighborhood....it's a rather small one but theres street foods for sale and a basketball court and there's people walking by. Wherever you are is thats where you'll go...so you've got to make the most of whichever location you're currently in.

Lol...I know this is a little off topic but I'm able to track my brother's locations in the states off a Map App on my phone. I know exactly where he is currently right now in the states which I find amazing. In a way, do you think the government spies on us and our conversations daily? Lol, if you wanted to be a fugitive and go off somewhere, I got bad news for you, you gotta get rid of that smartphone. In Instagram there's commercials where you can track your lover down and see their conversations and text anonymously...wow dude ! that's hillarious man....you would think The government woud spy on us citizens on a daily basis with these phones.
 

"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.

Do you have a Playstation 5? Did you have a Playstation 4 by any chance and if you did, have you played and beaten Final Fantasy 15 and was the experience worth it? lol...I'm into RPGS.
I’m playing FF 12 - The Zodiac Age. I have a Switch, so I just turn it on when I’m in bed or just lounging around the house.

I put about 70 hours on it already. I have a plate that is in mid air right now due to inattention, my house is a disaster, and I’m eating so much junk food I’m starting to gain weight on my weight. I get addicted/obsessed with things easily so it might be time for me to give it a rest…

Where you from? You have a house? Congratulations.

Saturday Roll Call here....It's Sunday morning about to be 2:30 am here Where I'm at. This past Saturday evening, I went to the Park to walk my dog, had some ice cream, sat on the bench and went bird watching. Then after that, I went back to my Parent's hotel that they owned to talk to a few local cute women with my Wing woman and friend who happened to be one of the staff there. We had snacks, desserts and sang karaoke. Good times, how was you guys Saturday night?

Is Saturday night considered as important as it once was in seduction?


I had a recent Saturday night where I went out to a bar (a bar that has a well known reputation for being the bar where motivated for sex middle aged divorcees tend to go) and it was a complete dud.

Lol while you maybe skilled, I don't think you should be venturing alone, having social proof would give you an advantage. I think it maybe a good idea to have a few 'laughing-joking sessions' with a group of friends or people before you do a Pick up approach with anybody there. Yeah Day gaming and weekday bar lounges where the environment is more open seems more ideal these days.

Yes, it would. I promote the idea of going out to bars with at least 1 other guy.

I do not have that luxury. My male friends/acquaintances locally are married males. These are either childless married males who have no interest in going to bars or married males with children who have no interest and no time to accompany me to bars.

I lack the presence of available males in my life to join me at the bars on a Friday or a Saturday night.

It's possible to roll solo to bars and meet women. However, non-bar approaching is better suited for solo males.

"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.
