"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.

good info about sugars (lactose, fructoce, malto and reguar dex)

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

You could have just posted one thread containing all of the links, you know

see "signal to noise ratio" for clarification

player backwards guy, what are you talking about? He just posted a link to a thread about sugars. What other links should he put in one thread?

The other link he posted in another thread, is a completely different subject.

well in case you hadn't noticed, the OP just made a significant number of threads where he simply mentions a topic in the subject line and then posts links to wannabebig.com articles

that's what i'm referencing in my original response to the OP. all of his posts could have just as easily been consolidated into one thread for posting, improving readability and the signal to noise ratio.

not necessarily, if each of them had spawned a separate discussion.

i don't think you can fault his enthusiasm either, most of the linked articles are quite good, and i learned from several of them
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I agree with Throttle. Seperating these links into differnet threads leaves room for people to reply to that specific link. While his "signal:noise ratio" may be one that you don't feel is necessary, people reading these links, and responding to them may appreciate them. It prevents a lot of confusion.
