The above has absolutely nothing to do with why an age icon is an EXCELLENT idea.Originally posted by Demon
What do you think the Don Juan Discussion forum is for? The DJ Discussion and High School forums are mutually exclusive.
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.

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Ok no need for melodramatics, Im sure you wouldnt be "forced" to disclose your age, hopefully if it was implemented it would be optional like your location.Originally posted by Demon
If these forums force me to advertise my age to the world, I leave. This idea would only be OKAY if it were an optional, but then the point of it all would be gone.
Hmmmm! Take note of his intent to criticize, yet he refrains from using profanity..Originally posted by Demon
Not all of us are careless Aussies.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
Probably because he's an honest guy, ... and posting his real age (50) would make him lose the god-like credibility he has carefully crafted on this forum!!!Originally posted by Apollo
Demon, why are you so against this idea?
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.
And I can see that you're the first to do that. 24? Pffft, didnt you say in a thread last year that you were "fresh out of high school", looking on how to pick up college chicks for the first time?Originally posted by Demon
...and then he lies about his age...
The probability of this being a good idea died when we realized that we are humans and we lie.

Does anyone who have been to junior college have any advice for a freshman? I'm just out of high school, two years earlier than normal, and I have no idea what college girls want in a guy.
In high school, it was mostly about sex, drugs, and looks. What is it in college?
Please post your tips, advice, etc. And I mean the whole nine yards from what to wear to what to say to how to act.
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.
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.
