You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
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.
What nationality are you? I'm pretty sure most girls in America like it shaved.horaholic said:All girls I've asked said they wouldnt like a man to be shaved. Just trim it down, so its not out of hand. I'd do it if my GF asked me to, though.
I don't think so. It's definitely not nearly as attractive as its shaved female counterpart.Exhumed said:What nationality are you? I'm pretty sure most girls in America like it shaved.
Interesting...I've heard varying opinions on the subject from girls.servo1234567 said:I don't think so. It's definitely not nearly as attractive as its shaved female counterpart.
You are incorrect there. I'm American, have been with all American women and not one has ever said they wanted me trimmed or shaved in any way.Exhumed said:What nationality are you? I'm pretty sure most girls in America like it shaved.
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.
I'm not advocating going without maintaining it. I just know that when I have shaved in the past, it looks like a scared chihuahua. It's trimmed up, just not bare.Exhumed said:Interesting...I've heard varying opinions on the subject from girls.
But I do know one thing...I've heard of girls refusing to go down on guys with a ton of hair down there, but I've never heard of the same thing happening to guys who shave it. So I dunno...my practice of shaving it once every two to three weeks is probably pretty effective then; it's there, but not to the point where it's curly and tangle-y.
