"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.

Exfoliate?! Down there?? He probably shaves. I use to have the same problem.

My skin just got use to it. He probably doesn't do it enough.

If my skin got dry or irritated I would just put a few dabbles of cocoa butter on it.
Exfoliating the skin helps remove dead skin cells and minimizes ingrown hair growth (which is likely what's causing the itching).
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Or he could just put cocoa butter on his balls and he'll be okay! =D
Cocoa butter will help soothe the skin, but it will not do anything for the ingrown hairs (which is an inevitable outcome where shaving/waxing is concerned - especially "down there").

I don't know about the balls though...how you guys would exfoliate that.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The itching might be because of razor burn and/or ingrown hairs. You need to exfoliate to keep that stuff under control.

Do you shave or wax?
I implied shaving but I really meant trimming.

Basically, I just took a pair of scissors and trimmed it down there nice and neat. What I assumed happened after that is that the course hairs were now blunted because of the trimming, then my briefs were pressing those blunted ends against my skin causing me to itch like crazy.

It was so irritating that I couldn't see how it would be feasible for me to ever do that again.

One time I tried to Nair my nutsack to avoid the problems discussed here.

I gotta be honest: not so much fun. :down: It burned like I had just tea-bagged an ant hill of fire ants!
You are a brave man. If you mean you tried to use a depilatory cream THERE, I can understand why you had a burning sensation. Hair removal creams leave tiny cuts on your skin (hence the burning).

They are never any good and not good for your skin.

Aye. That boy of seventeen was not brave. He was STUPID, STUPD, STUPID! :cuss:
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Thunder,

I would think a bald man would look like a kid, not exactly sexy IMO.

I well I'm told by people that I have "baby face" anyways. I don't know what's worse. Looking like a bald kid..

Or looking like a hairy kid. -_-

And what do I care what a guy thinks anyways? Unless...you wanna...

you know.

Well I meant is it like the stuff you use for your face sometimes? Where it's like a scrub? Like it feels like a bunch of tiny rocks on your face?

I know men older than that who've done far worse to their precious bits...so he was not that stupid.
 

"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.

I see I clearly hit a nerve.

Don't worry Thunder, you are still very much a masculine man. OK? :p

To each her own Thunder. Some women like the soft supple look on their man. I have friends who hate body hair on their men...they find it gross. So you stick to those ladies and leave the hairy ones to the others.

You can use a loofah brush in the shower...so no need for the exfolating cleansers. Just takes a few mins and you should be OK.

Don't take too much credit for that. You weren't the only one who said it. :p

Psh you've never met me. How could you know I'm masculine? All you know is a have a baby face and I shave EVERYTHING.

Hahaha. Actually that doesn't sound too masculine. :eek:

Ahh I get laid. What do I care? I don't need to prove my masculinity to any of you!!

I can't leave women alone. I convert them.:cheer:

And sh!t, if I wasn't "masculine" then I definitely would know what a "loofah brush" was.
 

"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.
