"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.

I wore a denim jacket today and got some grief from a couple of friends. They said that denim jackets were a product of the 80's and should not be worn today. I don't see a lot of people wearing them but hell. places like Abercrombie sell them. What do you think, are they outdated or do you think they're aq good style to go with?
 

"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.

They're still fine as long as they aren't the ratty John Cougar Mellencamp or Bruce Springsteen kind from the 80's. In the fall definitely wear the darker colored jackets as apposed to the lighter washed ones. Vintage washes are good too. The only hardfast style rule is just not to wear them with jeans, that's very 80's.

Some people can pull them off. The fact that you're here means that you might not be able to. But hey, what do I know.

they are cool so long as you dont wear them with jean pants. That is a fashion faux pas in my opinion. It's too simple and obvious to be fashionable plus it looks kind played out, kind of like matching jumpsuits are. But with the right combination of pants and a shirt, the jean jacket can work wonders. Ask a sales associate when you are shopping for stuff that makes you look good

its to my understanding that the 80s stuff are coming back.
they are selling jean skirts with the lacey trim at walmart for eight bucks.
all those long shirts that chicks used to wear with those leggins with lace at the bottom are being sold again.

therefore, if this is all coming back into style in ky, al, ga, fl, mi, in.... i am sure jean jackets are too.

personally i think jean jackets look weird with slacks, they were made to go with jeans.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Denim jackets are casual only, so wear them with either jeans or khakis. PenKitten is right, they look wierd with anything dressy.

If you really want an all around jacket that looks good with jeans OR dress slacks, get a black leather blazer.

You can pull it off if you wear the right clothes with it. Just don't wear them with jeans that are anywhere NEAR the same shade of blue. best not to wear them with jeans period. also, get a denim jacket with some style to it, a little texture, some frayed edges, etc. Plain denim jackets look kinda bad.

From my observations.. not that I'm a fashion expert at all (I have chicks go shopping for clothes with me cause I always buy crap)
but blue jean jackets were a feature in broke back mountain weren't they? Don't wear one with blue jeans and a cowboy hat..haha

From what I've seen the black leather blazer had lived out it's life a while back. I don't even think Wiseguys wear them anymore. They're pretty much just pushed by the big box leather retailers.
 

"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.

denin jackets are extremely gay for men.
small, sleeveless denin jackets on women look extremely sexy as fvck. do yourself a favor and save some "dough ray me" and stop chasing the urban casual concept style, real men wear traditional permanent fashion. anybody that doesn't know what that means or interested in knowing what that means PM me.

all-black leather jackets are very 50s. They're kinda played out.

denim jackets work better on some people than others. I think if you look younger you can pull it off better. I sometimes wear one with a hoodie underneath. I've been told it's a good look on me.

Hmm, you've got me thinking my black leather jacket is kinda played out. I'm going shopping.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.
