"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.

LOL - Those are all really low-status jobs. If you want to get a job, you need to get a high status job that makes money and (more importantly) shows that you're intelligent and classy. Lawyers, doctors, stock traders, etc. will always pull high quality women because of the fact that those jobs require intellect and convey status.

Also, I bet FBI and CIA guys can really pull some tail.:whistle:

Agreed. However, I was thinking along the lines of that anyway... starting positions. And, being a 'low-status' position that it is, I've seen COUNTLESS chicks digging guys who work there... and for the starting ladies man, it's a great building block to get to where you ultimately want to be. Of course, a Federal Agent or a CIA Agent, etc etc. qualify as great careers, BUT... due to the time needed to get to these positions, not to mention the limited social time involved with it, I wouldn't recommend these as careers you can get anytime this year. So... yeah. :D
 

"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.

If you mean a career, then the job that YOU have a passion for.

Don't live anyone else's dream, man. Only you can answer this question.

If you mean something temporary to meet girls, there's already been some good suggestions in this thread.

i wanna do something in sales/business. The idea of a job where your interaction skills determine whether you make 25,000 or 250,000 intrigues me. It is like an extension of seduction

"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.

I think he meant that a Don Juan should be a business owner and thus have people work for him and not the other way around.

In the future, don't start a thread if you're not going to expound on your original post. As this one has a good discussion going, it's going to be moved to Anything Else...

A good friend of mine does video production. He shoots t.v. commercials, works for Playboy and MTV from time to time, travels all over the place shooting in fun locations, and has the hookup with more women than anyone I've ever met.

I know his personality helps a lot, but chicks DO love cameras.

And no, I'm not ashamed of myself for "using" him and his girlfriend to meet chicks.

a don juan job is a job that gives you money.

there is no awesome job that is going to pull chicks, you shouldnt need it. it should be challenging enough not to be boring, and pay well enough for you to eat. other than that, there is no such thing.

A don juan is the person behind the job, and the car, and the clothes, and the sh!tty pickup lines. Those dont make the man, far from it.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

a lawyer?!? they're reviled

Not by women, which goes to show that women don't know much about it. Lawyers are miserable. They work 60+ hours a week, and have ten times the rates of anxiety, hostility, and depression. The US median income for lawyers is about $72K, which is not horrible, but keep in mind that lawyers work almost twice the hours. The net hourly rate for most attorneys is not that much more than for a lumper unloading trucks or a bartender at an upscale bar. Yet when I tell a girl that I am almost done with law school, l can see the slot-machine dollar signs roll by in her eyes.

Think of a guy mowing the lawn at a lawyer's office. Everyone thinks that the lawyer is richer, but maybe he makes $35K/yr and can barely make his giant student loan payments. The lawn-mowing guy might own an established and successful lawn service and make several times the income that the lawyer makes, but this possibility does not occur to people. Also, with the cost of med malpractice insurance for doctors, young MDs are not raking it in like people assume. If you think about it, the idea of a high-status job not paying well makes sense in a free market in that the prestige of the occupation draws enough people to it so that there is a greater supply of labor. I have learned from working construction that if I focus on doing insulation, I can always get work and make as just much money, because everyone hates doing that kind of work; it's supply and demand.

Either women don't realize these things, which is likely, or it's the prestige and power that they are after more so than the money? What if the richest person in the country was also the most hated and looked down upon by everyone? What if the nation's biggest hero had zero wealth? Which guy would get more women?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
