"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.

"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.

It's called "maternal preference" and it's supposed to be unconstitutional gender discrimination. Law schools teach that there is no preference given to either gender, but we all know that's not true.

"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.

the problem is very few people take care of them selves anymore and we have a false pereception of the declining age of looks is.
I've had, more than one guy, ask me to hook them up with my older sister.. of course I don't have an older sister.. that's my mom. who doesn't look a day over 32-33 (43 on the 31st of this month) because she works out 5 days a week. i wish she would take my sister with her.. she's 7 and she's 80 pounds
... they don't know how to say no to her.. I ate more than she did growing up but I never stayed home.. I was outside the second school was out playig sports and playing hide and seek with young b!tches. it's sad.. but I digress. At her age I think I might have been 60 pounds and was as skinny as could be.Ken785

"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.

I have a 13 month old son..who sits by the bathroom door when his mom is in there and cries.
when I go outside to work or get something from my car..he goes to the door and waits for me...sometimes up to a half an hour.
you need to really know if you and this woman will work out..and if not..you both need to be adults and work together to give the child the best possible environment you can.
if you get every other weekend when he is just a baby and a toddler..it will be hard for him to even trust you or know you.
remember that

I think you can get out of paying child support somehow. You just have to sign something saying you will not attempt to contact the child. You have to forfeit your parental rigths.
Try to convince the ***** to get an abortion. Abortions save lives (yours) and more importantly...they save you money.
"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.

You must make sure the child is yours. You must have a DNA test!
Make NOOOOOOO promises till you have that paper in hand. If she gets b!tchy and refuses to give you a test, you can go to the courts and DEMAND a DNA test. They will FORCE her to do it. Call a lawyer, he can tell you exactly what you're in for.
Good luck Dude, you're going to need it.
