You're an idiot, sorry. 
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.
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'm an idiot? Says the guy arguing with a guy with a legal background and knows the police procedural. What's you background?backseatjuan said:You're an idiot, sorry.![]()
Exactly.TizZle said:lmao. all they got to do is bring in a drug dog and "use" it to get to a point to where they can search your car. you're kidding yourself if you don't think they can get a dog to hit on a part of a car even if drugs aren't present.
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.
Cops can lie to you. It's completely legal.Jake_tha_Boss said:don't say nothin to police, ask for a lawyer & be patient, don't let anything a cop says scare u, they will lie their asses off to scare u and get u to talkin
Hmmmm... excellent words. Hopefully I'll remember this when I need it.Bible_Belt said:And here's some more magic words:
"I feel intimidated."
If the cops are wearing a recording device, which is common, those words will fvck up their day. That's because when the judge later looks at whether the search was legal, the two factors he balances against each other are 'informed consent to the search' versus police intimidation.

Always presume they are lying to you unless they show you proof they are not.Jake_tha_Boss said:i know that but some people think police don't lie because theyre "looked up to"
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.
Some people are also idiots.Jake_tha_Boss said:i know that but some people think police don't lie because theyre "looked up to"
