I also love it when you mistakenly double post and you wasted another post and you can't delete it.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
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.
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.
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.

Exactly...Kaim Argonar said:Those elitists saying "ooooohhhh that's nice it will prevent the losers from wasting their lives on these forums!" are the worst.
That's so insane, on most forums regulars accumulate a post count that's much, much, MUCH higher than the regulars with the highest post counts have here. People just use this site to kill random boring moments in the day which will always exist.
Ohhhhh no, someone will waste his life away if for one or two days he actually enters an heated debate and makes a few dozens of posts in a short time period! It's the end of the world as we know it!
NO! he had a power trip and decided that he needed an ego boost so he reduced the level of freedom... if his board was not popular he would never have done this.. Typical human power trip:cuss:reset said:No guys it's not about money, remember the announcement? It's about quality over quantity. One day he was looking at the site and decided the quality had to go up.
Anyway, I've already said I'd even pay to have a premium membership. A lot of guys would.
Anyone notice that the PM box can store more messages now?
i feel the same way, im too scared to reply because i may want to reply in other threads through out the night....Latinoman said:Interestingly enough...there is not a sticky out there letting members know (especially the new ones or the ones that have not post in a while) about the rule.
I was gone for over a week and saw several threads that I wanted to contribute. But ended up posting only ONE TIME yesterday, because was concerned I would miss a good post in the unread threads.
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.
Just create a new handle.. you could be Latinodude.Latinoman said:Interestingly enough...there is not a sticky out there letting members know (especially the new ones or the ones that have not post in a while) about the rule.

*Points you in the direction of a half dozen pages ago where we specifically stated that we have no control over that.* :kick:DonGorgon said:Why is it that when forums get popular these odd power moves always happen by mods? WHY?
OK so the mods are NOT behind this travesty .. its the site owner playing these dictator games... booooooooo to him:cuss:TheVirtualMind said:*Points you in the direction of a half dozen pages ago where we specifically stated that we have no control over that.* :kick:
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
