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.
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.
ok....typical said:Anyone here tried animal pak/stack, is it worth the price ?? A friend is hooking me up with stack 2, any thoughts about this ??
Btw I weigh 170 pounds 10% bodyfat and am 6 foot tall, so would this help gain mass or not ? I'm on a 6 meal plan with whey and other crap lol
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Warboss Alex said:Wiseman, are you the same guy who's recommending 2 grams of protein per lb bodyweight on this thread and yet on another you're telling people that too much protein is bad and not to take in 80g at one sitting?
typical, try to get hooked up on cut-price red meat. it'll do more for you.
well I feel you're contradicting yourself.Wiesman44 said:Thats me.
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.
there's others who know what they're doing.. EFFORT for example, manuva, A-Unit, semag, mindovermatter (now that he's seen the light re protein consumption). But the majority are clueless I'm afraid.[S]alvatore said:Alex, with every post you are giving me more reason to believe that you and I are the only people on this forum who understand proper diet & training.
SHHHH!!!! Don't ruin the SURPRISE!! You're supposed to say "It's magic." and "Who needs a good diet and training routine when you have money to buy magic weight super muscle training tan pills..?"Soupar said:Animal stack is little more than a multivitamin, I took them for a long time and all they did was turn my piss yellow.
