"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.

Yo If anyone here knows how to program a VST effect, hit me with a PM and we could share ideas. This is something I've just gotten into with my music and I'm still a newbie with C++, I haven't been able to get it working yet.

Peace.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Are you talking about creating brand new VSTs? Why? It's very hard, and as a newbie to C++, you really don't stand a chance of learning unless you learn alot more.

Why not take one of the infinite VSTs out there, learn sound synthesis and start programming your own presets from there? It'll get you much farther than trying to reinvent the wheel every time.

I appreciate you saying I should work with presets and other synths more first, but I've already been doing that for a good while! I already know alot about subtractive synthesis but I'm feeling rather limited by my tools, which suck for doing additive synthesis and are non existent for RESYNTHESIS. I know the basics of C++ already and I'm thinking of sticking with it, but I've also heard the learning curve of Delphi is less steep and has it perks for what a VST programmer does.
 

"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.
