"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
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.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
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.

just saw that movie last weekend, Brad Pitt did a great job, too bad they didn't let him play the real Achilles, a bisexual who's mom used to dress him up as a girl in an attempt to avoid his fate.

I'm swimming in a sea of chumps...
For an insight into the "Warrior Spirit" take it from a guy who knows, Bruce Lee. Go down to the book store and buy a copy of "Striking Thoughts" and "The Tao of Jeet Kune Do".
You would bring up a nazi as a confident role-model, wouldn't you 'Devestator'?...

"I just moved here from Florida."
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.

I loved your post about the warrior.
Anyhoo, the Nazis, perhaps misguided, believed in something. They fought for it. We still remember them not just because of their atrocities, but because they were supremely confident in their superiority and nothing less than world domination and enslavement of "inferiors" would satisfy their insane megalomania.
Hitler seduced us as well as his countrymen. Even today, our great villians are modeled after him and his ideals. Nazis are a movie cliche even today. It's negative charisma. Osama bin Laden has it, too. I read that before he became a religious nut, he was quite a player. He enjoyed rough sex
"Devestator" is named after a huge Decepticon who crushes his enemies with brute force. He's cool and a bad guy as well.

Anyways, we are cool. I just have no use for evil, thats all. And I still believe that evil only attracts female losers. Heck, look at Charles Manson.
