"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.

Uhhh there are still thousands of people dying in Africa every month because of the genocied there. Who gives a flying f*ck about dogs.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

And for the rest of you PRO-DOG people, stop being Euro-centric/Ethnocentric (if you're in USA) , respect how other people do things in other countries. 50% of Americans live near poverty, are you going to do anything about that? Public Education is underfunded in poor minority neighborhoods which is the result of racism and classism. But keep arguing about an animal being beaten to death while millions of animals in the USA go through the same but quicker process for consumption.
were you the same guy that basically said you hate mexicans?

How? Everyone has a different set of moral values. Didn't Europe kill thousands of cows (without their farmers' permission)? Doesn't the US kill millions of bees, bats, ants, and spiders every year? Oh that's right, they're not as cute as dogs & cats, so nobody makes a fuss.
you couldn't possibly be this dumb can you?

bees, ants, and spiders:rolleyes:
 

"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.

So culling a few dogs is now a holocauste? Wow, that's the 2nd dumb comment I've heard today.
If you twist my words around, sure that's what I said. My point was that you don't have to live in a region, whether it is Nazi Germany or modern day China, to identify its people's actions as morally wrong, which you were implying.

Buying an insect spray to kill spiders in my own house is hardly the same as seizing my neighbor's property, a dog, and killing it.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

The above comments (except for Silverback, who's just a troll) simply show how people can't percieve a world outside their comfortable, tree-lined middle class neighbourhoods.

So tell me this: What is so special about dogs? What's the difference between eating a dog, and eating a cow? So far, the only argument I've seen is "Because it just is!".

1) Many people go to bed with their dog. (Man's best friend)

2)I don't know anyone who goes to bed with a cow. Nor do I know anybody who's cow lays next to them while they watch TV.

3) We don't break into people's homes and club their pet cow or dog to death. This is cruel and inhumane for the pet and the owner.

4) If you want to argue the cow/dog thing you might as well include humans since were also animals. We're just higher up in the food chain.

5) Shouldn't it be okay to kill humans? Since dogs are no better than cows you might as well throw us in there too.

1) Just as many eat dogs daily

2) Maybe if they had mini cows they would/could do such in some parts of india. I got stuck in traffic on tour there because no body wanted to "disturb" on in the middle of the road.

3) If it was found that lots of animlas had disease and property owner's pets were determined to be the source i can say with 100% accuracy they would be quarentiended and destroied

4) Humans have been quarientied and destroied or left to die not too long in the past

5) I think I addressed this one in in the last line. Also think about how "bad" people are put in to large cages called jail cells daily

The issue for me is not that they're being killed (which is ****ty), but the way they're being killed. Seizing people's dogs on the street and clubbing them to death, and making noise to draw them out to beat them to death is bad. Nobody kills cows that way, so the analogy to cows is false.

Some people on this forum are advocating moral equivalence, which isn't cool. I don't necessarily believe in the universality of right and wrong, but I certainly don't believe that anything people want to do is okay just because that's their "culture," and I'm not being ethnocentric in saying so.

Ethically, humans have a responsibility to animals to minimize their pain, even if we put them to death. Putting a bolt through the brain of a cow - killing it instantly - is certainly different than a long, drawn-out beatdown on a dog. Pain is not minimized, even if the ends were necessary. Thus, it is unethical. I'm a relativist too, and I can recognize this.
 

"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.

haha i'm a troll says the guy comparing dogs to ants and bees:rolleyes:

maybe if i post 4000 times and stay here for 4 years (I would hope you are an expert with women by now) I will be a respected member right?

have you ever even had a dog?

I already gave the differences

the fact that you have to ask at all shows how intelligent you are, and the beastiality comment was so witty:rolleyes:

they say not feeling any compassion at all for domesticated animals is a sign of mental issues. Serial killers often tortured dogs and cats before they moved on to people

Many people go to bed with their rabbits. But we still eat rabbit.

2)I don't know anyone who goes to bed with a cow. Nor do I know anybody who's cow lays next to them while they watch TV.
How about rabbits, chickens, or pet lambs?

3) We don't break into people's homes and club their pet cow or dog to death. This is cruel and inhumane for the pet and the owner.
No, but we do send police troopers to peoples doors and demand they hand over their cows to be slaughtered because a few cows are diseased.

4) If you want to argue the cow/dog thing you might as well include humans since were also animals. We're just higher up in the food chain.
That's right, we are. In primitive times, humans weren't even that high up on the food chain.

5) Shouldn't it be okay to kill humans? Since dogs are no better than cows you might as well throw us in there too.
Actually, in the United States it is ok to kill humans. The US is one of the few 1st world countries with the death penalty.

Yes, I am. Why are dogs superior to ants and bees? Is it because they're cuter? In that case, maybe we should start executing ugly people.

"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.
