"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.

according to the test. i scored a 17 which is Major depression/bipolar something...im like wtf????? i couldnt believe it!

i refuse to think im bipolar or anything like that...but if you look at the score board no matter what you score...it says something is wrong with you.

it has stupid questions and tells you to answer them if you have or have ever had these symtoms...

like who hasnt been happy? who hasnt been overconfident or sad??

its a stupid test but now im kinda scared something might be wrong with me too...:mad:
 

"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.

This is a kind of test where everyone will be deemed to have Bi-Polar.

You should know if there is seriously something wrong with you or not, you don't need a arbitrary 12 questions test to determined who you are or what you are..

i dont think anythings wrong with me...but have you ever been through moments like i stated above? Like when you're by yourself and just thought of things that pissed you off and react making angry faces and felt like you wanted to punch something?...then wake up into reality again?...

i even did that once when i was in high school to my english teacher...she was staring at me but i was spaced out doing that and when i finally woke up and realized she was staring at me looking scared cuz i was looking all angry...then, another teacher saw me and was like "boy...whats wrong with you?" I just ignored it like it never happened...

or do normal daydreams occur like that...

That BiPolar test reminds me of that Chris Rock joke on that special he had on HBO...i think its called "Never Scared", Where he talks about the Government only wanting you think you have something wrong with you so you can get hooked on their legal drugs and they have commercials with questions that ask...

"Are you tired? Are you lonely?, Do you go to bed at night, and wake up in the morning?" oHHH Sh1t!! I got that!! I need that pill!!! LOL

I'm quad-polar! :rolleyes:

There is no such thing as "bi-polar"! :rolleyes: The Matrix has you!!!
 

"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.

DJDamage is right, nearly every one who takes the test will be scored as bi-polar. Do you think you're bi-polar? Go see a REAL therapyst, don't believe some stupid little 12 question quiz on line. There are HUNDREDS of questions that need to be asked.

Horrible test. There is not a person alive that couldn't answer yes to every single question on there.

If you had bothered to read the protocol, you might have noticed the part that the test assumes that you are over 18 and, more importantly, that you have been diagnosed at least once with major depression that interfered with your work.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Pretty silly scoring. Assumes everyone who is not consistent and "up" all the time has "major/unipolar depression."

Looks like a way to bring in more money for shrinks to me.

do you think its retarded because its retarded or do you think its retarded because you are bi-polar? perhaps you thinking its retarded is merely the negative side of your bi-polarness talking.

how can we ever know ? :)

Ken... better to think about something that made you mad and get an angry face, than to always have an angry face and have to constantly keep a smile on your face so people don't think you're upset all the damn time.

I feel fake sometimes, cause I'm sitting there with a stupid grin on my face for absolutely no reason.
