"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

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.

HB 7.5 - 5'9"

Setting up the date was very easy, very receptive to texting and calling.

The First Date:

There I am sitting at the lobby and she walks in. I stand up...HOLY FVCK. She's wearing 4" heels as I look up to her. My mojo. My game. My poor fvcking hamster was having a seizure.

I try to remain calm, thinking to myself I'm the prize. I'm the prize. I'm the prize. Then it turned into I think I can. I think I can. I think I can. It was pathetic. It was like this was my first date in years. Why was I so god damn nervous.

We order our drinks and head toward the lounge area. There was a long couch and a single comfy chair. STUPIDLY, I decide to sit on the chair. I must have lost my mind. She stutter steps as if she didn't know where to sit because she must have thought I was a fvcking retard.

The conversation was mediocre at best. Long moments to silence. Long looks at each others with smiles like two pathetic 12 year olds. Trying not to break eye contact, I crossed the fine line of creeper status. She excuses herself to the restroom. I'm there thinking to myself - Hey, it wouldn't be so bad if she ran straight to her car. 10 minutes pass, holy sh!t, I wouldn't be surprised if she did. She finally comes back. Probably telling her friends to watch out for an Amber Alert. The waitress asks us if we needed anything. I asked her if she wanted another one. 'I'm fine.' Yup, pack it up boys, we're going home. I walk her to my car since she parked 2 blocks away. She bends down to give me a hug, like a mom kissing her little boy to school.

I date rape drug myself and forget everything.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Happens to all of us. If you want to follow-up let her know the first date was a fluke and if she wanted to hang out a second time under normal circumstances.

How did you meet her btw?

It was getting too easy for you....It's nice to see even BDJ can **** it up every once in a while.

IMO you have the top two or three most entertaining field reports on here. Of the ones I've read anyways.

I'm 6'1 so it's very rare for a female to be at eye level with me or taller even with heels.

But WTF is up with women over 5'8 wearing 3-4" heels? Every time I see some chicks at the bar that appear to be 6' or taller she's wearing at least 3-4" heels. It's so fuking retarded. A girl 5'9 or so is already as taller or taller than most guys, so she puts on heels that make her taller than 95% of guys.

Women over 5'9 look like Amazon lanky freaks usually anyway. When a girl is taller than me even with heels, I'm not intimidated as they look like freaks to me.

If you're not f*cking up at least 10-20% of the time, you're not pushing yourself and not getting any better. This is the mistake I've been making for the past couple of years... dating 5s and 6s, rarely pushing for 7s or 8s. Major f*ckups are what keep the game interesting.

Never forget it, but forgive yourself and move past it emotionally. Carry on.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.
