"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.

"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.

I think in the real world nothing has changed. Women still (mostly) want to get married and have children. They need a man for that and they want to choose the best one they can get. If they're smart they'll choose before they get old and their own value starts to slip. Plenty guys want to bang them whilst they're young, sure. How many of those guys want to marry them?

I’m not sure how Tinder ‘decimated men’s SMV’. Or IG. I’m not being snarky or sarcastic.

Dating apps and social media haven't done anything except make women think their SMV is 2 pts higher than it really is.

no your smv is still your smv.
tinder and ig just made high value you men more readily available , but they would still find those men offline if tinder and ig wasnt around. they will get it from work, school, or at the grocery store. online dating is here for good now, might as catch the wave and make it work for you. learn how to use it AS A TOOL and make it work to your advantage

Many have tried using it as a tool. Believe me when I say I probably put more effort into than you, yet it was an utter failure. No guarantees in life. I still play the game. Even if I lose.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

switch it up , try new things , whatever you are doing right now isn't working, innovate.
what's your bio like? what kind of pics do you take? do you have a life outside of social media ? are you displaying your hobbies in your pics and profiles? do you lift? are you fit? do you dress nice?

Internet porn was free and readily available before 2008.
see tweet. pornhub launched in 2008. tinder launched in 2012 (and didn't really start taking off till ~2014). incel rate was already rising before that.

According to you pron is the reason women have hoards of thirsty men dming them on social media? Male thirst drives up the competition.

The demand far outweighs the supply

high speed mobile internet porn is a big reason why there are so incels today. don't need sex cuz you get your sexual release from jerking off to all the porn you want.

instagram decimates a man's SMV cuz your compared to celebrity/rich people's instagram. you can never compete. so compared to them, your value decreases from when they met and exchanged instagram handles with you at the grocery store. better for her to never know what your day to day is like so that she can project whatever she wants to you. i.e. if she's attracted to you, she'll assume your life is as cool as the rich people's instagram.
 

"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.
