"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.

As you can see, I haven't posted here in a long time. In fact, I'd forgotten about sosuave.net and fastseduction.com until I picked up a copy of "The Game" by Neil Strauss.

Throughout my life, I've always been good at school. I'd always been good at other things as well, such as music, but the one thing that I felt was completely out of reach was having success with women.

Sure, I'd meet women, but the ones that I liked never liked me back. I made a list a long time ago about the type of women I would like to meet and I was quite taken aback by my high standards.

She needs to be:
- smart
- someone who "gets" my sense of humor
- really attractive
- well-cultured and classy - she needs to be able to handle herself in formal situations

Until recently, women who met these standards never liked me back. When I got tired of getting turned down, I finally turned my attention inward. After a long time, I realized the painful truth:

My life is a mess. I need to get my house in order.

I looked in the mirror on day and named off everything in my life that I felt that I needed to improve.

(1) I had an acne problem
(2) My teeth needed cleaning
(3) I was overweight
(4) I was a smoker
(5) I was blindly self-centered and no fun to talk to
(6) I spent entirely too much time worrying about my lack of success with women
(7) I was nervous when speaking to women I was physically attracted to
(8) I felt nervous when speaking in public
. . . and on and on and on.

I picked several things on that list and worked on them until they got handled. First, I worked on my diet and stopped eating all that horrible fast food. That started to clear up my skin. I made an appointment with a dentist and worked on my teeth and breath issues.

I found some exercise regime that I could stick with and worked out 3-4 times a week so that I've lost 20 lbs and put on some muscle. I stopped smoking because it affected my workouts. I started actively asking about other people during conversations, instead of always referring the topic at hand back to myself.

I forced myself to get involved in my university alumni network and jumped at a chance to work with influential members of the network. I started conquering my fear of public speaking by speaking at these alumni meetings.

And then. . . and then . . . the women mysteriously started appearing in my life. First, I would meet them through alumni meetings or through mutual friends. Then, I found that I would just naturally attract them because of who I was becoming -- a secure, fun, dynamic person with a large social network. I've found that I don't have enough hours in the week to hang out with my various groups of friends. Now, my friends are actively trying to set me up with single women that they know.

I've also found that because I'm so busy, I don't have time to worry whether or not a particular girl will call me back. If one doesn't, fine, I can go out and meet another three or four girls in the next couple of weeks.

All I'm saying is this -- all of you out there who are having problems with meeting women -- turn off your computers. Make a list of all the things that you need to work on and WORK ON THEM.

Go out and get a life. The women will come later. YOU have to be ready for them first.
 

"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.

On a certain level this is true ...


On another level, DO NOT use your life not being perfect as an excuse for not approaching women.


Because even when things are going good in your life, it doesn't mean women will be attracted to you. That's the huge lie on this site.

i agree

If things are going good in your life, and you actually don't "have time" for women I will guarantee you that women will be attracted to you (within reasonable limits). Of course turning all "AFC" once you meet one you actually like will destroy the whole dynamic.

Oh, I totally agree. Once you start working on your life, you will find that the women will start to appear. However, you might get all AFC because you're not used to the attention.

This is when you need to work on your skills.
 

"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.
