"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I am currently in the phase of slicking my hair (which is quite verdant in the front) back to cover the wide apex bald spot. It seems like it would be waste to simply go to a complete bald look, especially since it would be totally OVER for me, with my other attractiveness issues. :mad:
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

It's a no-no.

Shave your head completely bold and own it. That's what I do.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"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.

Is that Michel Thomas, the great language teacher, on the right? There were rumours he wore hair, but you couldn't usually tell. Unfortunately the hairline is a dead giveaway in that pic. He was a superb language teacher, though, hair issues aside.

I thought it was him, having had some of his CD courses, I recognised him even with his eyes disguised.

These days there are much more advanced, affordable hair systems which, if done right, are virtually undetectable, however that wasn't the case so much in the past, hence the 'terrible syrup' jokes.

That said, the Sean Connery pic was a hairpiece, and that was in the 1960s, so maybe the TV studios had the tech to make them look realistic even back then, but only the rich could afford that level of realism. Everyone else who wore hair had to be a laughing stock.

Aussie cricket legend Shane Warne was the poster boy for Advanced Hair Systems here in Aus.
it’s was touted as hair regrowth or transplant ..but I suspect a wig tbh.
