For banging? Absolutely.
"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.
A good question for the 40 and over crowd.

"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.

Not against the odds for someone who still has it. Good work.
"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.
I am speaking from experience too. Alot of projections and assumptions in these threads. Our politicians have taught us well.
I guess some 50 something year old men like yourself want to travel the world with women who just turned 18. Guess you can talk about all new pop groups and be a Swiftie!
Correction: Older men who don’t have kids and want kids don’t want them with 46 year menopausal women: They prefer to have them with younger women.
From my own personal limited experience I have much more in common with women around my own age.
Younger women are usually more youthful and attractive depending on genetics (but not always) but are much more annoying and less things in common.
I would sleep with much younger women in a heartbeat but would not consider them relationship material unless they are at least 40 (I’m 56).

One downside with older women I have noticed is that the sh*t tests and level of delusion about their own s*xual market value is off the charts.
I think it’s a consequence of the simp and male thirst epidemic.
The 58 year old I am dating had a guy of 43 chasing her before me.

Whatever "legal" is. If laws didn't exist, we'd be talking about our 14 year old brides.
"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.

When I was 38 I started dating/banging a 21 year old.
At 43 I banged/dated (moreso banged) a 22 year old.
I'm with a girl now but in my late 40s. There's a 21 year old I know who constantly flirts with me when she sees me.
It's a tough life but I keep going. To answer the question, cutoff is whatever the adult age is. If she can vote she can decide if she likes me or not.
