Hi Duke. Just wanted to say I think your journal is really cool, and it sounds like you are becoming quite the ladies' man. Keep up the good work!!
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
the one on the first page where u fluffed up the pick up for the girls that were working and Don Ronny gave you the lines about i read in the Times that working is bad for you and there is only one way to cure it.Originally posted by Duke

Bloody hell, it's my British buddy JSH! When you said "revision," what were you referring to? And what "angle" do you intend to use? You got me curious. Don't leave me hangin'! [/B]
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.
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.
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.
hahahhahahahhahha Duke your the Fvckin man. With clubbing I think your objective should be more along the lines of getting them to dance. That way you can grind on them in your sexual state and get them horny. When there horny you should try to get them alone by any means.Originally posted by Duke
Me: Hey, either one of you want an extra straw?
UG: Why would we want an extra straw we already have one.
Me: Uh... you can sip your drink twice as fast.
Thanks PP! To most girls dancing doesn't mean anything, and besides that, I'm a better talker than I am a dancer. My lips will weave my magic, not my hips. I do believe, however, that dancing is a good way to get the chick away (haha, I don't want to say isolate cuz I feel like a fukking ax-murderer) from her friends.Originally posted by Peter Parker

As far as the b/f thing goes you guys need to be careful. Chicks are fvcked up I’m sure for half the beef in my neighborhood there’s some gyals behind it pulling the strings. If the girl is throwing herself at you sure Why the fvck not. But if your pursuing really hard just think that she might be using you as a test to see how much of a tough guy her b/f really is.

Thanks, Wacky-1! I see you have good taste! *rubs chin*Originally posted by Wacky-1
Duke,
I gotta hand it to you bro...this is one HELL of an inspirational thread you've got going here.I'm sorta new here, but I know good stuff when I see it.
Could you gimme a hand here and elaborate about this "sexual state"?Or is it the one you referred to when you were walking or talking slowly?I get the stuff about you approaching cos of balls etc, that's kids stuff.But I'm losing you on this "sexual state" thing.Could you explain?![]()
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.
