ImTheDoubleGreatest!
Master Don Juan
Not about game or women or red pill or any of that. Just some interesting books. I typically find myself into fiction, but if it’s nonfiction that’s cool too.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
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.
Funny, I just heard about the movie version of this recently because of a song I heard. Is it worth a shot or is it completely butchered compared to the original book?Trainspotting - Irvine Welsh

I thought I read the second one for free somewhere, but that was a while ago, and I can't find the link. It is an incredible true story.
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 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.

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.
Everyone always talks about this guy I notice. He’s been a big name since like the 80s or something.Aborted a reading of Shakespeare's Coriolanus, due to it being a bit heavy.
Chose to pick up the dark tower series by Stephen King instead. Haven't read any of his stuff since i was a little kid. He's probably the reason that i'm literate.
It's something like 5000 or 6000 pages, all told. So, i don't need to think much about reading materials for a while/can focus on different things.
It's like the literary equivalent of settling down.
