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.
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.
Pills have about a 5% chance of failing even with proper usage...Originally posted by Hot Ice
Well, I'd imagine if you finger her first, then put your condom on and your fingers touch your ****, you can get a STD easily.
Same thing with semen. Only one little swimmer is needed.
A 33 years old female friend of mine is pregnant and she said she was using pills when she got pregnant. As when she got her first child. That sounds like she has just forgotten to take one, but she says she's sure she hasn't... well, dunno about it.
I guess you just have to know you can be never 100% sure about sex and you take a risk every time you do it. The thing is to minimize risks. And being responsible.
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.
Or crabs... or actually a few other things.Originally posted by penkitten

Very true!Originally posted by Giovanni Casanova
You're taking a risk every time, condom or not.
it's not REALLY dangerous...Originally posted by Jay-X
guys, u scare me... my girlfriend is too young to take the pill (she's 16) and u r sayin' that just usin' the condom is really dangerous... so tell me what should i do...
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.
Wear a condomn and when you are about to blow, pull out. Reduces your chances quite a bit.Originally posted by Jay-X
here in italy u can't take pills if u r younger than 18 and u don't have a doctor's recepee (in order to have this, u have to tell your parents... no way, of course...)... suggest me something that i should do... should i just wear a condom and risk pregnancy? (i don't care about STDs, 'cuz i'm her first partner) what do you other underage guys do to prevent pregnancy, besides using a condom?
i thought about jerkin' off 2 times before havin sex with her (in order to reduce the amount of semen), wearin' a condom and doin' it just immediately after she has her things... should i be safe enough this way?
Well, dunno about that. While having sex, the girl should be always wetOriginally posted by Jay-X
that's a good idea, thank u jimbo. it's safer if she's really wet, because u can slide ur d1ck in a easier way, right?
