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.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
She should give the money she made to charity then. Then I’ll believe it.
There is a theological contoversy (called Lordship salvation controversy) on that very topic that I don't intend to get into. However, I'm on the Free Grace side of the controversy at this time (which means no perfomative works are necessary and faith alone is enough). Her actions, however, are a good sign that something did happen with her and the very reason her faith was brought up was an explanation of what she was doing. (ie Removing tatooes that she feels are demonic, etc...).
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
You should see some of the 60 year olds simps are paying to look at...just brutal.
Never spent a second on OF, but when I see this kind of crap I feel like I'm in that movie "Idiocracy" and I just woke up from a 500 yr cryosleep to an upside down world.
I think Electric Chair Jesus would be a good name for a band.
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.
I know people can change through Biblical means, but I'll believe it when I see it. I know my own father turned his life around at age 30. Went from taking every drug out there at the time, being abusive, etc., to being actively involved in a church and eventually a deacon. That's a true exception to the norm though. Usually there's a major wake up call that triggers the change.
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.
She's slept with a long list of rappers and celebrities. Shes one of those boppers that goes around sleeping with everyone in big industries/dudes with money// getting nice gifts from them etc but tries to be cute and feminine wherever she is.
