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.
"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.
Hat or no hat?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
It can make you stand out from the herd, like a mild form of peacocking. Nowadays when its not the standard to wear hats its a bit like a statement, and its has a masculine old school aura to it, unlike some forms of metrosexual douchebaggery some guys use to stand out.

if it fits the style/your style - ie hip hop style its ok
if its a fluffy cowboy hat like mystery method followers do = fu.cking retarded = and way too try hard
i knew a guy at uni who read The Game, and started wearing little wrist bands and some eye shaddow, he just look like a gay boy, and it never really got people opening him
--------------------------------------
you can "peacock" much more sublty
eg
- wearing a red (ie different) shirt in a club when every one else is wearing black/white shirts (saw this on a clip of "keys to the VIP")
(on rsd some people have gone out in a "twighlight" movie t-shirt just coz its funny as f.uck - sefl amusement - and take balls and everyone is reacting to you) = DHV
- certain accessories (dont be like "ooo look at my REAL expensive watch" ...the quickest way to turn women off!)
- ripped body (dont seek validation for your guns, or be lame showign them off... be subtle about it.. like a t shirt that shows your physique but acting like your normal = alpha )

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
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.

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:

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?

"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.

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.

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:
"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.

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.

Interesting...
While I'm looking around other threads, I'm getting ads for men's hats! Marketing has come a long way.
