"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.

"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.

what’s the meaning of life
Literally, to reproduce.

As is the purpose of a bacteria's life.

Because I know about science and evolution. Do chimpanzees have an afterlife? What about lizards or fungi? We share most of our DNA with even very distant species.

Links to any without a shadow of doubt factual evidence disproving the afterlife?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Not disagreeing or agreeing with spiderman's post but I want to make something clear.

People who call themselves alpha are not alpha.
Actual "alphas" don't boast about being alpha because they don't need people to know that they're alpha. Instead, It's obvious from the way they act. Having to tell people that one is alpha results from self esteem issues.
They also don't call other people "beta", because that in itself is beta af.
Spot on. That's why he's getting clowned.

Think of anybody you may consider "alpha" outside of yourself, of course ;) do you think they would really carry on like this creep?

No man who is secure in his confident masculinity goes around acting like that.

I want the guy to heal though. He's what @tennacity used to call a cartoon alpha

You have valid points.
It's very possible. I don't agree.

The delivery is where you lose the audience
Yeah that's pretty much were he's getting clowned. Well, delivery? or trying to insult the audience? I always ask myself when someone is delivering a message (especially online)

.....How would this come across if he and I were sat there sharing a glass of Laphroaig 18 year and chatting away?
Now, if he would present the message in the same way face to face, I may have to step back and go ....."wow quite a guy" or I may
just shovel a glass into his face and follow it up with an elbow to the jaw....that mean I'm an internet "hard guy"?

No, that means I'm a male who probably wouldn't listen to that ****e face to face (which doesn't make me special, any of you living in the real world knows that......the fellas gonna react.)

Inconclusion, anyone speaking that way on the internet....usually is full of fvcking ****e

Yea, I called the autistic angle. It's like the kid reads a chapter of The Rational Male and comes back trying to put it in his own uneducated words, with a bravado spin on it. It reads like if autistic rapper Chief Keef would have written TRM.
Amen.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

reasonable opinion.

This tells me at least you're in control.

I learned.

Ha, it's the only way they can start learning short of multiple near death experiences .

And if you treat them like gold their guaranteed to treat you like garbage .
