"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.

To all the Noobs that crowd the DJ forum:

Go BACK. By that I mean back in time. Go to the archives. There is so much more quality advice in the archives than the mediocre stuff that is on the boards these days. This board's kind of like the NBA today. Back in the day we had the Magics, the Birds, the Bill Russels, the Chaimberlins, etc. dishing out some fantastic advice. Now, all we have are Iversons, Kobes, and Glen Rices.... good at doing it for themselves but crappy at giving advice. I myself am not that good at giving out advice as the old greats on the DJ forum were. GO BACK INTO THE ARCHIVES and read every single post.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I've noticed that there are a lot of new people here. I guess that is good, but it was nice to see the same people posting and get to know their personalities.

It's always adviseable to do your research before answering a question...

"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.

The problem with relying on the board for insight to a large extent is that once people achieve and are able to sustain the level of skill they had originally wanted to be at they tend to stop reading and posting. Or...maybe they got to that level BECAUSE they stopped reading and posting. Hmmmm....that's one to think about. ;)

You cannot imagine how much that has helped me in the last week alone.
