"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.

lmfao I went to bed 'cos I got bored of this sh1t, I thought he'd finally realised he was retarded but no! awesome thread this...


btw whoever posted the Guido + Luigi cartoon, cheers! I used to love those cartoons but I totally forgot about them!


hey confusion I've got a new workout for you...

take a hammer and hit yourself with it, do this 400 times as hard as you can - it really builds up your head muscles...works your forearms and biceps too, you should see good gains :)
 

"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.

It's an alright cardio routine, kinda slow though. I've been on the routine for four days now and I still haven't felt a single burn. I was better off in the gym.

I do love this thread though, organziedconfusion is being a real jackass. I want to hear his comebacks some more they are so lame they're funny.

no i bascially do about 800 in 25 mins 5 times a week. add whey protein to that and you wont need a gym really. the only disadvantge i find in gyms is sharing and people wasting yourtime. not to talk of the expense. travelling and membership.i lift 2 sag bags with bricks in them for a shoulder workout i also hate when guys at gyms try to compete with you tryingto be stronger especially if a girls around. changing rooms stink.
 

"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.

You sound kinda anti-social. Do you need to feel like guys are competing with you? No, but you should, its healthy, try using your words to win over the women instead of your muscles when you're in the gym.

Training at home is okay, but you won't get the full benefits of the motivation from the gym. You also won't recieve any feedback from your workouts.

For one, if you went to a gym and explained either organizeds' or your 800 pushups routine to a person in the gym and told them they were wasting their time you may just get a good lesson. Unless of course your entire workout regimen and your goals are endurance centered. If you are aiming for any strength, or balance than you've got to switch up your routine once and a while.

Well push ups are certainly useful. Being stuck for months at ~210lbs Bp, I managed around 260lbs after ~6 weeks of frequent push ups. Oh and I lost a few lbs during the time. Try it, works like magic.
