I was just thinking, what would we do if we didn't have beer in this world?
It would be unthinkable...
It would be unthinkable...
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
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.
If we didn't have beer I'd black out more often.TheMainMan said:I was just thinking, what would we do if we didn't have beer in this world?

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.
The Irish would have taken over the world. Fat chicks would be gone... no fat dudes to mate with them to have fat babies... oh I hate fat people btw. :trouble:TheMainMan said:I was just thinking, what would we do if we didn't have beer in this world?

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.
Yes I'm pretty sure martini, absinthe and yager bomb are chick drinks... American beer look and taste like warm piss anyways. The only good beers are in Europe.foxhound87 said:Beer is beautiful, I can't beleive that people here don't like it. I suppose most of the guys here drink "chicks drinks" :crackup: But yeah if beer didn't exist the world would be a much nicer place....
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.
No sh't... wow did you really graduate high school? So what's your point? Importing European beer will make it American? It doesn't matter if you import it... it's still EUROPEAN BEER. Maybe I should spoon feed your tiny little brain by adding all good beer comes from Europe. Seriously piss off...Deus ex Pianoforte said:Astonishingly enough, America imports European beer.

Never tried it, sounds good though. I still think Germany has the best.Serialized3 said:http://www.bluemoonbrewingcompany.com/
Delicious "belgian white" beer from the CO. I usually have at least a twelver on hand here.
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.
