"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.

What exactly is our aversion to things like the splits, ballet, yoga, and meditation? I notice a lot of guys don't seem to like all that, but I for one, am open to them and would like to pursue them.

This isn't because women do them, that's just a side effect, and honestly... I'm pretty sure women are sick of guys taking things like that that they have no passion for just to get some ass, all but the most shallow will see through you.

They have benefits, and the heterosexual macho mask is rather... annoying after a while. I mean... hell... we're homophobic about these kinds of things. Why?

*shakes head* Okay done that rant, any insight, for or against?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

Ballet is an awesome sport, its the only dance type that I respect.

Yoga is great for your flexibility.

Meditation can help many people feel better.

Whoever bashes this stuff just because its girly is a ****tard.

I too am way into the respect for ballet. I actually did it for a couple years, and it's awesome exercise, and you get to hang around with chicas in leotards to boot!

All kidding aside, if you're a man, you should be able to come off as a man no matter what you do. If you tell someone you've done or do ballet, and they're like "no way," in essence, you've done your job.

No, that's just it, why do you even have to make it manly? Why not come off as a ballet type guy if you want to?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Why make it manly??

Because you're a man doing ballet. Enough said.

If your instructor is a teacher, she doesn't know the masculine aspect that you will throw into yoru dancing.... if your teacher is an effeminate man, he's been stripped of that which makes his dancing strong and powerful.

Those are the things that are displayed, and thati s what is displayed. I'm just saying you need to display your inner self, whatever that may be.
