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.
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.
Yeah same, I got no response. Was looking forward to goingNot sure if I can attend now due the meetups going private and me not having an account on the ROK forum. I sent an email anyway.
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.
I don't think there's any realistic way to actually completely shut down these events. As mentioned above some hosts are going forward anyways and a lot of them were privatized before the event was formally cancelled.Thwarted by the powers that be. ROK Metup has been cancelled -http://www.rooshv.com/announcement-the-meetup-on-february-6-is-cancelled
I enjoyed this video, and it was funny how he was making fun of the "Boom Clap" girl, but you can see that Roosh brings a lot of this stuff on himself. He even said in the video basically that even bad publicity is good publicity. For instance, he tells the girl to shut up because "The men are talking". Lol, that's the same line Andy Kaufman used to use to wind up the feminists when he was doing his "bad guy wrestler/wrestling women" bit. I'm sure it's intentional. The more outrage he can stir up, the more publicity he gets.
Dammit. This would have been a great way to make local non-AFC friends.Even if the events are cancelled, the manosphere got a massive burst of free advertisement = more men waking up and seeing there is another path in life
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.
