"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 met this girl whose a psychology grad student, and we get a long very well, her interest level in me is f^cking high. She asks me if i'll take a rorschach(ink blot) test. Says she really wants to get to know me. She also says it won't take very long to take, so i go along with, doesn't seem like a big deal to me

today i got this email

Ya your results kinda scared me, so I
thought I shouldn't talk to you anymore... I
don't know...I think it might be better that
way... maybe you should take some time and
seek some professional help...not from me
because of the obvious, just in case you
don't know what the obvious is... I'm not a
professional yet...haha... anyways... i
suggest that you do that as soon as
possible... have fun watching the game...I
will do the same...bye

take care and God Bless

i'm not really sure how to respond to that.
 

"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.

you shouldn't respond to it - she's a crackpot. look, if she's going to tell you to seriously seek professional help after she gave you some "psychology test", then i believe she should really look into her own advice...

I'd ask her what her learned opinion was regarding the results. By the way, what answers did you give? Usually saying "that one looks like a baby being torn in half", and "those look like the lips of a big vagina" aren't answers that will get you very far...

Okay, just so that nobody gets confused, here is a transcript of the psychological test:

Nancy: Let's get started.
imleashedup: Okay.
Nancy: (holds up ink blot) What do you see in this picture?
imleashedup: Okay, um... it looks like a man pouring acid over a woman's head.
Nancy: Uhh... all right. (holds up another ink blot) What about this one?
imleashedup: That is the Baal, the Lord of Evil, feasting on the flesh of nubile 9-year-old girls!
Nancy: (sweating, holding up another ink blot) And this?
imleashedup: That's definitely a pair of puppies...
Nancy: (sighs with relief)
imleashedup: ... being crushed beneath my boots!
Nancy: Umm... (looks for exits)
imleashedup: How am I doing so far?
Nancy: I'll send you an email!
 

"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.

This is the case of "being too ****y and funny" - you were just doing that dude, trying to not take her serious but giving middle school answers.

If you weren't being C+f, yeah you probably got some anger issues and may need to talk to someone.

If you're asking for an answer on how to respond: Don't.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Hi Nancy, thanks for your mail. Seems like I really need some professionell help. Do you know a good masseuse? During the massage I would like to have fun watching the basketball game on saturday. Therefore, it would be great if she could come over to my place.

Talk to me!

I don't know why you even bothered to take that test bro. She wants to get to know you via a rorschach(ink blot) test? Man please...

Your response to her (just to fuk with her) email should have been...

'you're just jealous because the voices talk to me'.

I think she's just playing around with you, making a joke about you needing psychiatric help....flirting, basically. There's no way she could mean that seriously.

You should play along, such as the 'you're just jealous because the voices talk to me' line biker_gixxer suggested.

Hi <name of bytch>

I have received your e-mail and take it very, very seriously, because of your credentials as a graduate student in psychology. Because the result of the test is very significant to me, I would like to have it peer-reviewed by a senior faculty member or members, before I jump to the conclusion that I'm insane to the point of being frightening, and potentially dangerous, as you insinuate. The interpretation of such tests is at least somewhat subjective. Therefore it's understandable that I would like to have some additional expert eyes go over it before I make any big decisions and take action based on your conclusion alone, especially given that you are not yet a mental health care professional yet (by your own admission you have confidence that you can diagnose a mental illness, but not that you can treat it). In addition to requesting a completely independent review, I'm also going to request a meeting to which you be invited to explain how you came to the conclusions in your e-mail, and defend your reasoning, if necessary, by citing relevant literature and such, so be prepared!



Okay, now at this point she either caves in with the admission that she was kidding. If not, then follow through with the outlined actions. You're a man who does as he says he is about to do.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.
