"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 did a search and found 2 "more smilies" threads where no responce was given.... So I thought I'd bring it up again....

Can we maybe get more smilies for the forum? At the moment there are 11 smilies that we can choose from, which is a decent ammount, but do you think we could get some more? :rolleyes: Just an idea;)

"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.

I actually PMed allen a while ago about this and he said that he'd think about it cause he does agree that more smilies would be good. :)

So we'll see.

smileys

I like this idea. More smileys would be cooler then any avatars or anything else that is usually suggested.
 

"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 guys want smilies because the forum gets boring eh.

How about soem fresh air. Every person you see outside has a different face. It's better than smileys. You should try it sometime.

"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.

When you get to the stage where u party and go out just HALF the amount that i do, then I'll think about listening to your advice;) Till then, take your own advice:rolleyes:

And getting more smilies has nothing to do with getting out or not, its just making things "nicer" by giving us more options to express what we say.

Vincent: y0 dude... Has Allen gotten back to you yet?:)
