"She's Out of Your League"

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.

Has anyone own a made to measure suit? Do the women appreciate a guy wearing nice outfit for work and date??
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

Only if it fits the venue. Nowadays, unless you work in the stereotypical white collar, board room business where that is the norm, suits in general aren't all that important. They come off as ostentatious unless you are attending an affair that merits it.

However, Nicely tailored shirts, pants/jeans or a jacket (as separates) are always in good taste no matter where you are. It's more about the fit and style than overblown presentation.

I wish! My dream is to buy a Sacque Suit MTM when I graduate from college. www.sacquesuit.com

I guarantee I will get laid 100x more than I do now if I wear that suit. Not making any guarantees for you though, buddy :D

Yes, and it is awesome. I love my custom made suit. I had mine made in Mexico City two years ago. It cost me about $200 for the labor. I had to supply the cloth. That was about another $150. It was incredible deal. If you look around, you can find some great deals. But don't forget its the details which really make the diference. Spend the money for a good tie and shoes to go with it.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

The city that sleeps. Sometimes.
i love suits.

i actually don't agree with what francisco said, i believe suits are the ultimate menswear, its ties i have a problem with.

to me the absolute best look is a nicely fitted european-cut suit with an unbuttoned shirt and nice shoes.

absolutely. perfect.


i don't have any bespoke suits, but i have a few that have been expertly tailored.

am just order made to measure suit from Harry Rosen, the top men clothing store in canada. It is cheaper than bespoke but it looks just as good as bespoke.

I already have made to measure shirts & pants. I do have to attend business meeting with clients for my company. I have to dress in formal business attire. I believe that it would enhance my image.

Bespoke and MTM are slightly different things. Bespoke is done by hand by a tailor with your selection of materials and design; MTM could be done in a factory using a tailor or even a cutter's specs. Not that big of a difference.

I think I hav 20+ suits and all of them are tailormade. Off the rack suits generally sucks ass if you don't mind spending some time to find that fits you perfectly. Image and first impression is everything in todays world. The cash you dish out on some good suits will be worth it.
 

"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.
