Master Don Juan
Dear Julie Baby,
For what it is worth you have my respect.
For what it is worth you have my respect.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
It's worth alot, Scara.Scaramouche said:Dear Julie Baby,

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.
You know who gets all worked up like this? Chicks.Julius_Seizeher said:Lastly, to answer your slanderous attack of my manhood, listen up: I grew up on a farm, which means I was tougher at 10 years old than you are now. I went into the Marines right out of high school, just in time for 9/11 and the war. In the war, I eventually led younger Marines into combat.
So let me ask you, did you ever lead Marines into battle? Did you ever kill a man? I know you didn't, you're too much of a pvss. You are not half the man I am, I say this because it is a TRUTH that I have earned.
There's truth to this.f283000 said:We have to remember that women are hardwired to look to men as their leader. If a woman is with you it's because she saw some qualities in you which make her want to be led by you in a relationship.
Never treat a woman any better or differently because of her wealth. You will stand out from every other guy she's come in contact with. In fact don't even mention her wealth, never bring it up, ignore it. Treat her like she's your average 9-5 worker, treat her normal.
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.
