Senior Don Juan
I'm going on a cruise to the Bahamas tomorrow. Is there any chance of me getting laid? And should I try to get my nut with some hawt *****es?
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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
What cruise line are you going on? It sounds lame, but check out the Youth Club and go to the first meet and greet event. Your parents should understand that you would want to hang out with kids your own age, and they probably want a break from you as well. I found that it was critical to just collect a big group of friends early on and the girls usually follow.novaknight said:Cause I'm underage. Meaning no alcohol. I'll see if my height can help me sneak into the adults only club, but I doubt I'll be able to get in. And I'm going with my family (who probably wants me to stick with them and stuff).
Also happen to need condoms, and I'm not sure where to get em.
AYE!! U Norwegian?novaknight said:I'm going on Norweigian Cruise Lines. Supposedly there is a youth center. But parents will be the hard part. Last time I was able to get away with it, but apparantly they would rather I accompany the family :/
I'm gonna try that, but I'd also like to have experience opening some older chicks too.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I'm starting to think of a gameplan/openers, any advice would be appreciated.
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.
Odd that you say that considering how there was a club in there. And I had the chance to practice game by sarging.BBbardot said:you will not get laid,
no single person ever get laid on a cruise
not talking about underage guys with their parents...

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.
It didn't happen, I came back from the trip about a week ago. But I gotten close. There were tons of college-age students, and I easily passed for one. Problem was I made the mistake of not lying about my age. I might post a field report sometime.BBbardot said:a club for poeple in couple.
i don't think any young single girl would go on a cruise.
the single girl that go are like more than 30 i guess.
And no girl above 22 would score an underage guy AND take him to her cabin get laughed about by her girl friends, and just give herself the feeling she is a desperate cougar ^^ ALL this with the presence of his parents on the boat. No... that's very unlikely. IF it happens, write a novel about it. IT would be novel worthy^^
