"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
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.

Nothing I like more than a group of harpies trying to convince my fiance to be "bad" one last time... well at least until two years later and they create some reason why everything is my fault and I "deserve" her cheating on me.

Please tell me what's pvssy about this.
I think it's a great idea. Why the fvck should the women get to have all the fun? An excuse to hold an all-man party with no whiny, b1tchy women around can't possibly be a bad thing...
Just because a wedding shower consists of a woman getting 'showered' with dildos, panties, condoms, and appliances she'll never use, it doesn't mean the man is going to get showered with the same things. Getting new power tools, having a good round of bowling, and getting tanked sounds like a great fvcking way to throw a party!

I think its a pretty good idea, too. What more does a man want than to hang out with his buddies????
It takes a wedding or a funeral to get my old friend group together all at once.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

All this is is one more example of the marriage industry's never ending quest for further commercialization.
And you can't throw one of these "groom shower parties" on a regualr basis?
You need a wedding as an excuse to throw a man-party (however legitimate or illegitimate it is, that's not the issue). THAT is what is so pussified about it. Not the content (the party, tool exchange, beers, etc.), but the context (i.e. this type of party is allowed and encourage ONLY if the guy is getting married).

Does the same go for the bachelor party?
IMO, marriage only becomes 'pvssified' if the man hands his pants, his balls, and his brain over to the woman. There's nothing in this 'Man Shower' that indicates that he's going to do such things. In fact, it suggests the opposite.

Great idea, provided the "shower" consists of cases of Jack Daniels, strippers shipped in from the orient followed up by an afternoon at the pistol range the following day. Don't laugh, I went to a bach party yrs ago that had all these elements.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

"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.
Which unfortunately is par for the course with most marriages these days.Desdinova said:
However....
I don't think we have ENOUGH of these kinds of things for men. Women are encouraged to be social in this way. Why is valentines day geared toward women? How much bigger is mothers day than fathers day? It's all part of our feminized society.
Men don't get enough opportunites like this. If anything it's the opposite; the wife "doesn't allow" him to hang with the boys. Way back when the men went off to hunt and got their "man time" because they HAD to. Nowadays they are kept under lock and key.
I truly feel bad for a lot of men who are in relationships.
