Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
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's what we already basically have in ghettos. Stupid.Children should be raised communally and by the state. The nuclear family model is a breeding ground of deceptions, mediocrities, treacheries, hypocrisy, and violence. It needs to be abolished.
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.

The feminists dont like her for the same reason "human rights group" dont like extremists, while they share the same goal, the first ones still need to be accepted since it takes government support and politics to steal tax money or manipulate schools.Peaks&Valleys said:Looks to me like the Feminists don't like her either. It seems as though people are accusing this loony toon of being a feminist and that doesn't quite sit right with them (probably because it gives the MRM/MRA too much easy fodder). So, to turn this into a win/win situation, I'd say just to start calling this little nut house group a bunch of Feminists......then let the two of them go at it. While we sit back, eat our popcorn, and laugh our a$$es off.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Similarly, some of the more abrasive anti-women people in mens rights hurt the cause by looking too extreme. Opponents will always drag these guys out as typical examples to discredit the whole.Who Dares Win said:The feminists dont like her for the same reason "human rights group" dont like extremists, while they share the same goal, the first ones still need to be accepted since it takes government support and politics to steal tax money or manipulate schools.
