"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.

Always wanted to see the back room of a strip club

Well, today I got my chance.

And let me tell you, it's EXACTLY like what you think it would be. Small dressing room to the right (without a door) with girls changing unabashedly, tiny office to the left, cheesy 70's paneling on the walls, three ashtrays on a desk the size of my coffee table, several video monitors showing the stage and surrounding areas, bottles of liquor on shelves along the wall. I think we even heard a gunshot out back while I was in the meeting :eek:

Check another thing off of my "1000 places to see before I die" list, LOL
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I am working on doing some cross promoting with them. They send me girls for my tv commercials, and we give them advertising time on our tv show. Fun times!

Haha....that's funny, when I walked out of the back my business associates and I were having a beer and chatting with the manager when one of the girls comes over and starts messing with me telling me not to talk to the manager, that SHE is the boss, blah, blah. I had a leather bag with my laptop in it and later she came back over and started asking what was in the bag. I told her it was "top secret". At first she asks if it's a hidden camera, then she asks "Is it like a bunch of cocaine or something?" LOL

Cocaine, strippers? Nah, they don't do that sort of thing!
 

"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.

I'm surprised the offices would be a decade behind the times of the tacky 1980's decor. Anyway, I bet I know exactly where you're talking about, because there are only two strip clubs in town prominent enough, I think, to do what you speak. But anyway, congrats on chipping away on your life checklist. I'm much further behind on my to-do checklist in that department.

Prominent? Not exactly! But we don't need prominence. We just need a few decent looking chicks to attract the 18-24 yr old male demographic

The managers seemed ecstatic about working with us, hopefully the owner is on board. If he is this is gonna be one wild ride.

Heroin had its day in the 70s and 90s
Cocaine was big in the 80s
Now the drug of choice is methamphetamine which has attracted all the heroin junkies of the 90s and the etards aswell.
 

"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.
