"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Hey guys was wondering if I could get some tips for boosted confidence.
 

"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.

Wow I hadn't read Pook's 15 Laws before. Classic. Here is a summary:

1) Rejection is better than Regret.
2) Friendship – Abandon all hope ye who enter!
3) Judge by actions, not by words.
4) Patience is the refined sense of confidence.
5) Trust the gut.
6) You are the Great Catch.
7) Respect is All.
8) Only the Sexual Ones get the girls.
9) Be not contained by formula.
10) As you think you shall become.
11) Getting a girl is not the success.
12) Unite Dream and Day.
13) Charm is treating women like little girls.
14) Always have a backup chick.
15) The greatest risk you can take in life is not to risk at all!
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Stop jerking off. :)

No really, stop jerking off.

Guaranteed success after 7 days, or your monkey back!
this does not work in asia where the pvssies run extra small tight and wet. I accidentally busted in about 10 seconds after I tried this. Then, I substituted for yohimbine. Much better.

The only real way to self confidence is to be confident in yourself. Thats a hard concept. But love yourself. If there is a part of yourself that you can just NOT love, then work on changing it. Otherwise, accept yourself as an awesomely supreme being, and treat yourself as such.

working out helps.

Canada, eh?
Not giving a f$&k, in the sense of being outcome dependent or what other people may think of you - trust the gut to see what's right for you ( that's not me syndrome). Get out of the comfort zone, challenge yourself, let go off the ego.Many people thought I was nuts to try certain things or go a certain path- too bad they were the best decisions I ve ever made. Knowlege and experience. Working out is a given, because confidence is physical just as much- probably the quickest way way to get it. Self-love, taking pride in what you do, dress better, creat a certain image of yourself.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Achievement. The only real road to confidence is achievement. Don't half-ass it with some kind of mind control trickery.
