"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Do you think chicks that say on Tinder that they are interested in older men are legitimate?

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

No, Anne this is online dating in general. You want a legitimate women there's the whole passport and plane cost. I've met legitimate women online to talk to to help heal from a divorce, but had to change my location to parts of the world where there are still good women.
 

"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.

"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.

I'd say 98% of the time it's about affluence and money. Proceed with care. There are genuinely those who are attracted to older men for one reason or another - which points to other things, but that is a different post. 10-15 years is not that bad - anything beyond that - again, proceed with caution.

Given so many men here believe that a woman attracted to a man's affluence is ok, they shouldn't have a problem.

A good rule in life is "if it seems too good to be true it most likely is".

Could be some sort of code for wanting a guy with money. That's not necessarily as sinister as it sounds. It might be as simple as wanting to go to some interesting places that the guys she's been dating can't afford. Can't spend all the time in the bedroom, after all. Well, I guess you could, but there's more to life.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Out of the most recent 10 girls I have talked to on Hinge, the average age gap is 11.4 years younger ranging from 22-48. I'm 47. It's never been easier for me to match with younger women. The average age gap for myself has increased as I've gotten older.

I think a good question is, “Why should we care if women are sincere or not about this?”

At the absolute lower end, the vast majority of men don't even start to mature until the age of 23. In my experience women do like older guys (30+) over younger guys if all else is the same.

None of this is to deny the fact that most women will go where the money is.

Yep, she’s looking for a weekly allowance.
