"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.

"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.

I'm guessing arch-school = architectural school??? if so, this might be a blessing in disguise... architects don't earn sh!t.... get into nursing or some other healthcare field.

Agree with man posting up above me... Architects get paid jack, there are no jobs out there for it either. Do anything else and you will be better off. I recommend you go to a trade school for something like becoming an electrician, plumber, or being an HVAC repair man. Blue collar jobs that are never going to go away. More hands on stuff for that training too, less about tests.

Yep,architecture.Main reason is I do a course with maths in it,and I fukin hate maths.Combine that with a sense of nihilism I feel knowing all this is to provide for some broad in future,it ****ing sucks.
But I'll try something better,not sure this manual jobs will do though.Im not in US,so I can't afford living like a hippie.I'll still need a 'good' job,you know.
 

"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.

Who said you have to provide for some broad?

Is this your passion and what you really want to do in life? Also, why are you failing exams, where you studying like you were suppose to?

@Kuzko That nihilism is your strength not your weakness... Screw the dumb broad... Live for yourself, not for anyone else. Answer to nobody. When you have nothing to lose, you become stronger. Do not give up, if you do you are a sheep a weakling and deserve to suffer. The weak will always suffer, that is their fate so do not make that fate your own. And manual jobs can pay... I do one, and enjoy it. I worked with a welder who had 19 years of experience and he makes nearly 100k and he does not even have a high school education.
