"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.

Interested in knowing how you’re rolling if you’re in my age group, I’m in my early 50’s and consider other men 45-55 to be my cohort. To that end a few questions for you if you fit this description.

1.Are you maintaining a harem?
2.Do you have consistent quality available to you daily, if you choose to?
3.If you maintain a harem, on average how many members to it?
4.Are you banging more than one female a day still? (If ever)

I’d appreciate serious responses - just trying to understand where I fit in the hierarchy.
 

"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.

Probably 1/2 single women at that age have a personality disorder and they been ran through so now they want you to commit heavy for spoiled goods, there is no point in even entertaining this conversation, I know women 45+ who are still on the **** carousel and I'm not kidding, it's bad out here

Hi Peirce,
The really good news is it just gets better and better as the Female to Male ratio becomes even more tilted your way.

This can be said for women of any age nowadays.

I'm 48. To respond directly.

1. No.
2. No, but don't want so that's totally fine with me.
3. See 1.
4. Not even one female in approx 800 days give or take.
No plans or irons in the fire to change that in the foreseeable.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Which environments are you predominantly in where your able to mingle and take it further? Do you have different styles with different ages or groups?

1.Are you maintaining a harem?
No. Played the field during my divorce with geographically separate women for a couple years. One rose to the top early on.

2.Do you have consistent quality available to you daily, if you choose to?
Women in our age bracket seem to be in a distribution of 50% Obese, 25% athletic but not slender, 20% attractive but not athletic 5% athletic, slender and attractive.

3.If you maintain a harem, on average how many members to it?
While not a harem , it was 1 Queen and occasional randoms. I did not bang within my social circle ,but had friends of friends as ONS's. I did rule out a number of women who would have slept with me early on because I did not want to complicate the emotions and time management. Truthfully, My SO had enough sexual appetite, that I didn't NEED a harem.

4.Are you banging more than one female a day still? (If ever)
No. At this point I don't have time or drive to do that. If I did it would be an exception. But I am having sex 1-2X a day with a live in, 5 days a week is not unusual. High Score of 6X a day.

1. Yes
2. Yes, but it took a few years to get to this point.
3. 3 or 4 with 1 or 2 prospects.
4. Yeah, it happens a lot (wake up in one bed, go to sleep in another).

Nuance: I live with my kids every other week, so only lunchtimes are possible then. I live in a city of small physical size, but a large population, a lot of foreign women, and about 55% women 45% men at my age.

I just turned 50.

1.Are you maintaining a harem?
No, one is enough for me. Maybe the occasional if it happens to fall on my lap without effort. The days of being a sexual tyrannosaurus is behind me.

2.Do you have consistent quality available to you daily, if you choose to?
Women are like flowers. Nice, firm and bright at first but wilt with age. The odd one will hold some eye candy with proper maintenance but increasingly hard to find.
I went to a school reunion just prior to COVID. Yeeesh! The beauty queens with the golden tans were hit by a truck.

3.If you maintain a harem, on average how many members to it?
4.Are you banging more than one female a day still? (If ever)
Both apply to line one. My question is why would you? As we age gracefully, I have better things to do.
Then again, I may need the recovery.

"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.

I'm 45 y/o, since @lost_blackbird answered this thread I guess I will too so I won't feel like the odd one out:

1. No.
2. No.
3. Zero.
4. No, never.

@lost_blackbird is probably doing better than I am. I live in Toronto.

1). Pre-Covid, yes. I’ve been in two serious relationships since 11/19 so, NO at this time. (I usually date 20 somethings. But not always).
2). Yes.: Work. Work related. Tinder (not on currently). Baristas, convenience clerks, etc...
3) pre-Covid 3. Now, one.
4). No. Never was that skilled. Just one/day.
