"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.

1 song to pump you up. What would it be?

"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.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Megalomaniac by KMFDM really brings out the inner assh*le in me. Do not dare to listen to it with pathetic laptop speakers or meek iPod earbuds.

I've noticed that sh*t like Linkin Park, Fort Minor, and most rock are the musical choice of frustrated beta schlubs. I should know; I used to be one, and that music had a certain appeal. Now it reeks of sexual frustration and unwarranted aggression caused by lack of direction and purpose in life. And hip-hop (mostly, with few exceptions) reeks of ignorant self-destructive materialism that makes me despise and yet pity those who listen to it.

Or maybe I'm just an assh*le. Whatever.

Lol..honestly I find rap being too goofy/displayin you have a chip on your shoulder but there are occasional songs that catch my eye (or ear whatever.) because of its lyrics. Such as the first one, the chorus reminds me of the shvt I've been through and how it would go to waste if I give up now.
 

"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.

I personally find it extremley stupid and out of place when people say things like "This band is for beta's. Sports are for alphas." etc. Gross generalizations are for the beta minded, if anything.

Not sure who Fort Minor is(I'd prob know some songs) but I actually like Linkin Park a lot, the older stuff mainly. If you were looking for a misplaced aggression song, look no further than Limp Bizkit "Break Stuff."

Well, I absolutely love the original song, so it was more of a tease for me lol. And I don't like the over-DJed type sound so much. I know that is the point of that game, but that's not something I would just listen to.

"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.

Pretty much anything by Queen puts me in the mood to knock down doors and go pick up chicks.

Kinda ironic really.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
