"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 there was this Senior Fair thing at school today, where all the seniors who did senior project showed off their project. Today I got 2 successful number closes, but I'm only gonna talk about one of them here.

So I'm walking and I go up to this girl named Sam and start talking to her. I eventually ask her what she was reading and she said it was her literary thingmajig, basically her senior project. Then I think I asked her how good she was blah blah and eventually I ask her to read one of the poems to me and she does.

So I'm all into the moment and stuff and I tell her the poems were really good and stuff and told her that was something I found of value in a woman. After that I basically just talked with her, saw her giving eye contact to her friends once in a while, but she mostly stayed focused on me. So at one point the Jordyn friend comes in and interrupts me and I just high five her. Eventually I get Sam's attention again and say I gotta go but I'm gonna call her.

So then I take my phone out and give it to her and she puts it in.
Another successful number.

Overall, I just did a lot of approaches today at the senior fair. Let's also add that I did all these approaches after having not slept for a day.
 

"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 don't know lol hang out with friends probably get my own car. Let's just say my current friends are unreliable for rides.

I've got a ton of numbers, but god knows if I'll ever really call.
 

"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.

Why on earth would you go and do a crazy thing like that!!!!
You already are successful, who needs physical contact when you've already got a journal full of numbers. Keep up the good work, maybe you can publish a novel about your success one day.

Why you don't you tell me? Whoops, you have none. You're scared to even approach girls. Don't go criticizing people if you haven't actually been out.

Numbers don't mean much though.

I see you aren't familar with sarcasm, but thanks for emphasizing my point. There is no point in bragging about all the numbers you get if you never take it further then that. I don't understand why you don't call any of these girls and try to set up dates.

This should be the title of your next FR "FR: Called all the numbers"
Work on the phone game, see if you get interest and dates, and go from there. Nothing to lose in calling, and you have nothing to gain in sitting on your pile of numbers.

Who's bragging it about it? I'm not. And really the only reason I don't call em is either A. If the girls a Freshman I don't call her or B. I'm just scared I'm gonna call and she's gonna pick up, make some excuse and won't even give me the time of day.
 

"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.

Why does that scare you? You've already done the hard part, approaching, were you scared of rejection then? Why take a step back now? Besides, you said you just graduated, so if you get shot down chances are you will never see nor speak to these girls ever again. Why not give it a shot, there really isn't anything to be scared of, and who knows, you might get your dik wet.

In another post you blamed your freinds for you not getting laid. Well how do you ever expect to get laid if you are scared to pursue women any farther then getting their numbers?

How about instead of you getting their number, you give them your number and instruct them on when to call you. Thats how true macks do it. And if they end up not calling you, they either are A.) Not interested enough or B.) Can't follow simple directions anyway.

Ooooh. It was all a dream. . .

Seriously, why are you telling us if you're not going to call? This is no different than me reporting everytime I take a dump. "Hey guys! I did a dump again! This time it looked like nuggets!" - that means nothing, just like your numbers.

Either step up, or ship out.

Ignoring the Wescott and HandyAndy post, you guys are probably right and I just got to get the balls to call them.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

There are many reasons to call, even if shes a freshman.

you don't HAVE to game every single girl you meet, ever thought about building a social circle of friends that consists of girls as well as guys?
Oh trust me I don't.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
