"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

I always hear people say this. How so? His jaw is very square and and he's had a pretty muscular body over the years. So where is this pretty boy stuff coming from?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I really don't "get" what the big deal is with Brad Pitt. He does nothing for me at all. The only movies of his I really liked was Seven Years in Tibet and Troy because I have this thing for movies made about those time periods. He's really not anything special, though. I've seen better looking Clam Diggers in rural Maine than Brad Pitt...and that isn't saying much, really.

Brad Pitt is a pretty boy. Plain and Simple. He is an actor he probably wears makeup, if he doesnt, he is still defined as a prettyboy simply cause he's good looking.

Why does it seem my homophobia's starting to kick in?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

he's an actor...we view him exactly the way we are meant to view him as.Talk about social proof at it's best- he could have as much pootytang as he wants for the rest of his life!!! is he a pretty boy? who cares? he's hot!! :crackup:

...stay away from me :nervous:

* i forget where i read that and what context it was in, but it was hilarious and i had to use it! :D
 

"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.

Brad Pitt is an AFC. All you have to do to verify this is see how he tries to identify with Angelina Jolie. As soon as they hook up, he adopts her adopted kids and 'suddeny' becomes the foremost proponent of childrens wellfare in Thailand. He knocks her up, but by then all of the AFC in him is on the table and a woman like Angelina needs a man who can be a man and pass her sh!t tests. She reads him as an AFC and she's off to the next guy to see if he's man enough to smack her on the ass. Classic AFC scenario.

First of all... give credit where credit's due. Knocking up Jolie is NOT an easy task.

Second, good point. I think Billy Bob Thornton is a classic example of bad boy that matches well with Jolie. However, he's washed up, which also gives him some AFC cred in the field.

Third, I couldn't give a good kot dayum in the first place.

Because you're one of those people who can't have a normal discussion without pointing out everything that could remotely be considered gay for who knows what fcuked up personal reason.
 

"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.

I'd rather like to think it's because I don't think talking about other guy's looks is considered 'normal discussion'. ;)
