"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Do you think Jeff Bezos going into space on his own rocket is an Alpha move?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

No, it is merely a business decision and good marketing for his companies which is highly likely why he does it.

Plus of course on personal level its a cool thing to travel to space. I'd love to travel there too because it's awesome.
But it has nothing to do with alpha and it doesn't make you into one.

Well said in another way.
Just because you have big balls doesn't mean that you aren't dragging them on the floor.

Go figure.. ;)

Like most entrepreneurs he isn’t adverse to taking an educated risk, Or, he knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that private enterprise is more successful at safe space endeavors than a government controlled agency ever was…

It's a joke. The entire flight is 11 minutes, entirely automated, and only in the lowest altitude of what is considered space for a few minutes. Leave it to bezos to bring you a low quality imitation product that makes him richer.

Just one more bragging right and an accessory for wanna-be alpha's to use to get women.

"Yeah, I've been to space before. It's ok, nothing that special..."

I don't know how anyone else can top that.

It's still a cool thing regardless of the settings and who is doing it and the length of the flight in my opinion.
Very few people have been to the edge of the earth atmosphere and space and seen it.

Right, because men like this are Beta ... :rolleyes:

"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.

Never said that.

But now with that said: Not all astronauts is like the guy in the article you are referring to.

Some of them are real nerds these days that live on the ISS space station. So riding rocket doesn't automatically convert you to a thunder alpha. Nor buying a Ducati motorcycle and strapping on it neither makes you alpha either because alpha is a mindset.

You can be as buffed as Arnold Schwarzenegger and still have beta mindset.

Like I said in a past thread re-quoting myself:
Either you have the mindset or you don't.

It is as simple as that.

If you can learn it?
Sure I think you can; but you can never "beat" a person with a natural alpha mindset that does it naturally from his core personality since he was born.

Well, a lot of men use "aircraft game" in their Tinder profile: :rolleyes:
 

"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.
