"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.

hey guys, I'd like your opinions and advice on something please!

there's this girl I've known for the last year and a half, we became best friends and I stopped seeing her as some girl I'd like to have sex with and fell in love (ouch). She has no idea I like her (actually doesn't, she's not just pretending for me) and basically we had a great relationship until last summer where we started falling out because she had a boyfriend and I got jealous.
I tried to cut contact at the time but I actually felt a lot of pain, so I did the easier thing and stuck with her, hoping I could cut contact down the line when we're seperated for a long period of time. Since then, our whole relationship has been screwed, I've loved and hated her at the same time and there are times when she can't deal with me...but...the other day we had a 2 hour argument and she said she didn't want to see me again, I put the phone down and I've ignored her texts/calls since...I've felt minimal pain and I think that may continue - am I over her? what do I need to do to get MORE over her? and is this therefore the best time to cut contact?

cheers guys
 

“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.

When you cut contact with a women, you don't tell her your cutting contact, you just do it. From what I'm gathering, if you have to ask us, your not a man and likely not over her.

You need to move on with your life, you don't need our permission to start nailing other women. You also don't need to send her any text messages validating that she was right or telling her she is good.

As Macavoy said, you haven't exactly shown that you're a man so far and you are obviously not over her (and that's an understatement).

You have a common case of KNOWING what you need to do, but denying it to yourself. You KNOW you need to cut ties because it's better for you. However, you're making excuses to yourself as to why things could work out. Deep down you don't need us to tell you that this is not going to work out. You know that you've overreached and it's starting to screw with your well-being.

So tell me, is stressing out over this girl good for your well-being? You know the answer. Once you start looking out for yourself and putting your life in good hands, you will only then see clearly as to what's happening. Right now, your mind is still fogged because your self-esteem is low and you have no center of gravity.

It's tough to get over a girl, we all know that. But it has to be done. The sooner the better. Please, take my advice, as myself and countless others have gone through the same thing. It may take awhile to see the light, but just keep reminding yourself that at the end of that tunnel is manhood.

You're not over her or you wouldn't be crying about her still. It might take years before you get over her. And some guys never, ever get over a girl. It's like a terminal disease that's incurable.
 

"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.

Did she say she "NEVER wants to see you again?"

I have been told this recently and she seems to have meant it. But you say she called you after that... so what did she say exactly?
