"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.

Overcome

You bring the best out of me
But you also bring the worst out of me
Why is it that I let you destroy me?
Alas, I can't stop loving you

You take all the pain away
Just to bring it back in another way
Why is it that I ignore all the scars?
If I could just stop loving you

When is a friend not a friend?
If that friend can murder you in the end
Why is it that I cherish a villain?
Maybe I can stop loving you

What does it take to be king?
The young hobbit must destroy the one ring
Why is it that I submit to your call?
I know I can stop loving you
Good poem man! Cheers. Very true!
 

"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.

Usually a fight will be broken up, however some fights spill out into carparks and bouncers just leave it be, even the police sometimes will not do anything if there are too many people! Most of the time, one guy after being hit mutilple times will give up his bravado image and try and talk! I KNOW, I have experienced it! You are 18 and probably been in very few fights. If you think you are experienced, you are simply lying!

And why WTF to walk away? Once again, if your ballz are as big as you talk, you will see the true result of fighting once you end up in hospital! AND YOU WILL! Every single guy who loves to fight and does so frequently ends up very damaged and in hospital at one time or another! Might take months before it happens, might take years, but trust me, IT WILL HAPPEN! That or you will end up in Jail! Either way, you are going to get busted up! Nobody is super human! Grow up kid!
man there's such a big diffence between getting drunk and fighting kid's,to real fighting:D

I'm glad you like it. It's based on what I remember feeling when I was trying to stop doing drugs. I had to remind myself that although it's scary thinking about going without you'll be better off in the long run. It was hard but's it's possible. Take baby steps that's what I did.

No its not! Its like saying if you drive like a maniac or basejump for years, you will end up in hospital or dead one day!

I know the driving like a maniac one for sure also, I wrote off my car driving crazy! Time is definately the best teacher, and you obviously havent been to school!
 

"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.

thats a defeatist attitude, and you gotta be an idiot to end up in the hospital.

Defeatist or realist?

How you gotta be an idiot? Such things as accidents do exist, and they have NOTHING to do with intelligence in any of its forms!
