This may sound like a dumb question but does wearing a hat make you look more seductive/mysterious? And would it be beneficial in anyway? Im talking about wearing it normal (fowards) with it a bit over your eyes.
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.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I cant agree more with that statement, thats basically the Law of Attraction right there. And also it was never to impress anyone. I was asking if wearing it a certain way makes it look more mysterious, simple lol.Galactus said:I realize you're just asking a simple question, and not trying to make a big deal out of it. But keep this in mind:
If you wear something you don't feel comfortable wearing (physically and mentally), that discomfort will manifest itself. You will convey that discomfort to the rest of the world. Also, the act of putting something on in order to impress someone else more than yourself is an act of neediness, which also manifests itself for all to see.
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.
LOL That was pretty funny. I honestly just wear my hat because on certain days its easier then to do my hair. im wearing a hat like thisAtom Smasher said:Hats tend to seem fairly pretentious or "try hard" to most people these days.
In fact, by coincindence, I seriously just wrote a guitar instrumental yesterday that I called, "Hats are Pretentious". Hey, you have to call it something. What kind of hat are you wearing?
Oh, around here we differentiate those by calling them "caps". Those are cool really no matter what your age. I will now have to re-write my song to exclude caps.Crissco said:LOL That was pretty funny.

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.
LOL No I would never wear old of those gay ass hats. Never even thought of that. Im the exact opposite, I have full head of hair thank god.Galactus said:Oh, that's cool. I thought you were talking about one of those big dorky fedoras or something retarded like that.
That's not a hat, that's a cap.
I wear one sometimes when I'm out in the sun because I have a shaved head and sunburn sucks. The only downside to wearing a hat or cap of any kind, is that I know a lot of women think that if a guy is wearing one, it's because he has a bald spot. And quite often, that's true.
LOL and what do u consider a real hat?Baseball hats are for baseball. If you have a problem with the sun get some sunglasses and a real hat.
Thats pretty funny bro, at first I thought u were joking about the hat song..now I see ur serious....and im still laughing, lol.Atom Smasher said:It's funny how hats have changed over the years. It looks like back in the day (30's, 40's) most men wore them (at least in big cities). Also in the late 1800s. Nowadays, every time I see a guy wearing a hat he looks kind of try-hard and douchey to me. Baseball or golf caps seem to not have that same stigma.
Yes, as I type this, I am fully aware that we (more accurately, I) are beating this simple subject to death. I gues it's because I just wrote my song, "Hats are Pretentious". I laughed out loud when I saw this post right after I penned my very last note of the song.
Fedora Hats. 10% off! Gotta love it. :crackup:Atom Smasher said:Interesting...
While I'm looking around other threads, I'm getting ads for men's hats! Marketing has come a long way.
